Midland Exploration Inc. reported excellent results from its most recent prospecting program and its very first diamond drilling campaign on the Willbob gold project, currently wholly owned by Midland. The Willbob property consists now of 1,268 mining claims covering a surface area of about 577 square kilometres and is located about 70 kilometres west of the town of Kuujjuaq, in Nunavik. This 2016 drilling campaign on Willbob was designed to test, at shallow depth, the extensions of the Golden Tooth and Lafrance surface gold occurrences (Gold Sheer zones), where prospecting work carried out in 2015 and 2016 yielded gold values reaching 25.2 g/t Au (Golden Tooth) in grab sample and historical values reaching 21.9 g/t Au (Lafrance) in grab sample. In addition, channel samples and additional grab samples were also collected on the Dessureault showing where, during the 1980s, Noranda reported channel sampling results grading 12.0 g/t Au over 3.3 metres. Midland has great hopes for this project with strong gold potential and intends to resume its exploration efforts in late spring 2017, with prospecting, mapping, channel sampling, as well as a diamond drilling campaign involving at least 5,000 metres of drilling.
