Globex Intersects New Gold Zone at Francoeur Mine
ROUYN-NORANDA, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Jan 18, 2017) - Globex Mining Enterprises Inc. (TSX:GMX)(FRANKFURT:G1M)(STUTTGART:G1M)(BERLIN:G1M)(MUNICH:G1M)(XETRA:G1M)(OTCQX:GLBXF) is please to inform shareholders of the results of a drill hole on our Francoeur Gold Mine Property, 25 km west of Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec.
Drill hole FS-16-35 intersected 4.64 gpt Au over 8 m from 99 to 107 m including 8.01 gpt Au over 4 m from 100 to 104 m (0.14 oz/t Au over 26.25 feet between 324.8 feet and 351.1 feet including 0.23 oz/t Au over 13.12 feet from 328.1 to 341.2 feet). The true width is approximated 55% of the intersection width. The gold intersection occurs at a vertical depth of approximately 90 m (295 ft) below surface in altered and fractured diorite and mafic volcanics with carbonate/silica/hematite alteration.
A second series of assays was done to define a potential lower grade gold envelope around the intersection described above. The results from this sampling have now caused Globex to split all the remaining core. Once all the assay results are received, Globex will issue a second press release dealing with the wider low grade zone which may have economic significance as a potential target for open pit mining.
Assaying was performed by Accurassay located in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec using the standard fire assay method. Details of the assay methods are available on Globex's website at www.globexmining.com
The core was logged and the processing supervised by Benjamin Mougin, P.Geo. This press release was written by Jack Stoch, P. Geo., President and CEO of Globex in his capacity as a Qualified Person (Q.P.) under NI 43-101.
