Margaux Resources Files Multi-Year Applications for Work Programs on all Four of its Properties
CALGARY, February 21, 2017 - Margaux Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:MRL, OTCQB:MARFF) ("Margaux" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has filed the required applications for multi-year area-based permits for surface diamond drilling, trenching and road building activity on its Jersey-Emerald, Jackpot/Oxide, Sheep Creek and Bayonne properties, located in southeastern British Columbia. All four properties are historic mine sites, with significant previous disturbance. Where possible, drill holes will be collared within the footprint of the historically disturbed area and the majority of the drilling will be accessible via existing roads. In the eastern part of the Bayonne property, drilling is planned to test a previously undrilled target with no road access. The core produced from the surface drilling will be logged and stored off-site, at Margaux's core facility on the Jersey-Emerald property. In addition to the surface drilling, mechanical trenches will be dug at the properties to further advance Margaux's understanding of previously underexplored areas.
"These permit applications allow Margaux to progress with the evaluation of our newly acquired properties as well as continue to evaluate our Jersey-Emerald asset" said Tyler Rice, CEO & President. "It demonstrates the next step we are taking to gain a solid and progressive understanding of our properties, all of which takes us further towards commercialization."
The proposed work programs are subject to regulatory approval and First Nation engagement. Field work is expected to commence in early May, pending permit approval.
