Midland Resumes Drilling on the Historic Maritime-Cadillac Showing

01.03.2018  |  Marketwire

MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Mar 1, 2018) - Midland Exploration Inc. ("Midland") (TSX VENTURE:MD) is pleased to report that diamond drilling will resume on the Maritime-Cadillac property in partnership with Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. ("Agnico Eagle"). The Maritime-Cadillac property is contiguous to the Lapa gold mine.

The objective of this new program, initially comprising two (2) drill holes totalling up to 1,500 metres, is to test the potential depth extensions of the gold-bearing zone intersected in drill hole 141-17-36 on the historic Maritime-Cadillac showing (see press release by Midland dated July 6, 2017). This drill hole intersected an interval grading 1.46 g/t Au over 31.6 metres, from 112.80 to 144.40 metres, including 2.2 g/t Au over 15.6 metres at a vertical depth of approximately 100 metres. This zone included several higher-grade sections, namely 4.3 g/t Au over 0.9 metre (124.1 to 125.0 m), 3.4 g/t Au over 1.0 metre (126.0 to 127.0 m), and 5.7 g/t Au over 0.6 metre (135.0 to 135.6 m) (Note that results are reported as core lengths and that true thicknesses cannot be determined at this time with the information currently available).

Following a field assessment of this showing conducted last summer, this area of the Maritime-Cadillac showing is now interpreted as a fold hinge. The drilling program will test the nose of this southwest-plunging fold.

The Maritime-Cadillac property (JV Agnico Eagle 51% and Midland 49%) is well located in the eastern part of the Cadillac mining camp, south of the Lapa gold mine. The presence of significant lithological contacts (Pontiac-Piché-Cadillac) within the Cadillac-Larder Lake deformation zone provides excellent potential for the development of lode gold or disseminated gold deposits.

Drilling program on Casault - Vortex zone

Due to a shortage of available drilling companies in February, the helicopter-supported drilling program planned on the Vortex zone, on the Casault project, has been postponed until mid-March at the earliest. This major program, consisting of nine (9) drill holes totalling more than 3,500 metres, is designed to test the extensions of the new Vortex discovery.
