Chibougamau Independent Drilling Returns True Width of 10.6m grading 2.93% Cu, 39 g/t Ag and 0.68 g/t Au
ROUYN-NORANDA, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Oct 3, 2013) - Chibougamau Independent Mines Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CGB)(STUT:CLL) and GLOBEX MINING ENTERPRISES INC. (TSX:GMX)(FRANKFURT:G1M)(OTCQX:GLBXF) are pleased to inform shareholders of the assay results received from two additional drill holes, BJ-13-10 and BJ-13-14, undertaken to test a mineralized geological target in an area of historical drilling.
Hole BJ-13-10 was drilled from the same set up as previously announced hole BJ-13-09 (see press release dated September 9, 2013) which intersected a core length of 1.58% Cu and 11.1 g/t Ag over 36.5 metres. Hole BJ-13-10 has a dip of 60°and a length of 225 metres and intersected a core length of 43.5 metres (142.7 ft) grading 2.93% Cu, 39.0 g/t Ag and 0.68 g/t Au with a projected true width of 10.66 metres (35 ft).

Hole BJ-13-14 was drilled from the same set up as BJ-13-13 (see press release dated September 18, 2013) which intersected a core length of 11.5 metres grading 5.23% Cu, 50.0 g/t Ag and 0.97 g/t Au. Hole BJ-13-14 has a dip of 45°, a length of 125 metres and was drilled bearing 175° or 25° more southward than hole BJ-13-13. Hole BJ-13-14 intersected 45.0 metres (147.6 ft) grading 1.12% Cu, 6.7 g/t Ag and 0.32 g/t Au with a projected true width of 17 metres (55.8 ft).

Mineralization in both holes consists of semi-massive to stringer sulphides with varying amount of chalcopyrite and pyrite in a siderite, sericite schist.
Compilation of historical drill data shows that while our drilling has tested only the shallow upper reaches of the mineralized zone, given that a historical drill hole intersected mineralization at a vertical depth of approximately 250m (820 ft) grading 3.08% Cu over a core length of 12.8m (42 ft) indicating significant potential to depth.
Compilation of the first four holes in the mineralized zone, allows us to now define with some certainty the strike and dip of the mineralization. The strike is between 120° and 130° and the dip near vertical. Drilling in the future will be oriented so as to intersect the mineralized zone based upon this strike and dip orientation.
Assaying was done at Expert Laboratory in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, using the standard fire assay method for gold and aqua regia digestion with an AA finish for copper and silver.
