cGold Fields announced that it has completed its trenching and rock outcrop exploration program in the Rang St-Gustave sector of the gold property located in St-Simon-Les-Mines in the Beauce region of southern Quebec. Mechanized excavations of the overburden (Quaternary deposits and soils) exposed the bedrock before it plunges deeper into the historical placer gold channel. Geological mapping and structural study to the east and west of Rang St-Gustave road will provide a detailed study of the orientation of the folds, shear zones and rock fracturing. This data will be used to optimize the drilling program to come. The 2020 exploration program mechanically excavated 46 trenches and outcrops (mainly trenches). In addition, the exploration team collected: 100 rock samples taken by channel cuts using a diamond saw (in the trenches); 9 bulk samples of rocks taken from the trenches; 28 samples (bulk) of rock outcrops from the property; 4 bulk samples (composite samples) of approximately 100 lbs each (trenches Tr-2020-01, Tr- 2020 02, Tr-2020-05 and Tr-2020-51). These samples were sent to the laboratories of INRS (Québec City) and subsequently to the laboratories of Actlabs (Ancaster, On). Analysis of the samples will provide a geochemical study to establish certain associations between gold, silver and metals indicative of mineralization like As, W, Sb, also known as tracer elements, and which were a feature of the gold mineralization found in the Poulin 10008 trench and to the historic placer gold deposit. All the trenches were accurately mapped using an RTK GPS system and photographed at high resolution to produce quantitative photogrammetric imagery. Subsequently, the trenches located on private land were filled in and smoothed to allow natural reforestation. The company expresses its gratitude to all private property owners who have given BGF access to their property. Trenches, on land owned by the company, have been left open for future access. The company blocked access to its property and cordoned off the perimeter of the open trenches for security reasons. The analysis of samples could provide a geochemical study to establish certain associations of gold to silver ratios and the elements Au-As-Sb, also known as the Tracer Elements, that were characteristics of the gold mineralisation found in Poulin Trench 10008 and to the historical placer gold deposit.
