Val-d’Or Mining Corporation Changes Stock Trading Symbol & Provides Exploration Update

VAL-D’OR, Québec, Nov. 08, 2018 -- Val-d’Or Mining Corporation (TSX-V:MZZ) (the “Company”) announces that effective on or about Friday, November 9, 2018, the Company’s common shares will commence trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under a new stock trading symbol ‘VZZ’.

Exploration Update:

Oregon Prospect – Abitibi Greenstone Belt – Northwestern, Québec (Val-d’Or Region)

An initial Phase I exploration program on the property is underway. The program consists of grid establishment (line-cutting) and geophysical (ground magnetic and induced polarization – 3D IP) surveying. Funding for this work was provided by Fonds de solidarité FTQ and SIDEX through their “FIELD-ACTION 2018” initiative, designed to encourage junior mining companies to perform their fieldwork in Québec while at the same time supporting their working capital. A follow-up mapping, prospecting and sampling program is planned.

The Oregon Prospect covers an elongated granodiorite intrusion that dips to the northeast and lies along a northwest southeast axis. The granodiorite part of the property hosts the historic Oregon Showing (Corps Minéralisé 32/C05-0011. MRNF SIGEOM). This mineral occurrence occurs within a fracture zone that hosts a series of parallel quartz stringers mineralized with pyrite. It has been traced out by previous historic exploration programs over a strike length of one hundred and twenty metres.

The primary metallogenic target at the Oregon Prospect is an intrusive-hosted, bulk tonnage gold deposit.

Ducros Sill Prospect – Abitibi Greenstone Belt – Northwestern, Québec (Lebel-sur-Quévillon Region)

A ground-based PULSE-EM (TDEM) survey was conducted over two separate detailed grids centered on a series of input anomalies (airborne electromagnetic anomalies), with the objective of defining drill targets. A ground follow-up prospecting, mapping and sampling program is planned.

The Ducros prospect covers an elongated, north-south trending ultramafic (dunite/pyroxenite) sill complex prospective for magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization.
