Frontline Gold Corp. Acquires Gold Project Northeast of former Lac Shortt Gold Mine

01.12.2020  |  The Newswire
Toronto, December 1, 2020 - Frontline Gold Corp. (TSX-V:FGC) ("Frontline" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has acquired a 100% interest in the NE Bachelor Property, which consists of 62 mining claims in the Province of Quebec covering 3,454 hectares. The NE Bachelor Project is contiguous to Midland Exploration's Lewis Gold project which recently reported the discovery of a new gold-bearing corridor (TSX-V:MD press release dated October 15, 2020).

The NE Bachelor is located approximately 90 kilometres northwest of the Nelligan deposit, jointly held by Iamgold Corporation (51%) and Vanstar Mining Resources (49%), where inferred resources total 96.99 million tonnes at 1.02 g/t Au for 3.19 million ounces of gold (Source: Iamgold Corporation website; as at December 31, 2019). The Property is also 5 kilometres northeast of the former Lac Shortt mine which historically produced 2.7 million tonnes at a grade of 4.6 g/t Au (Source: MERN-SIGEOM). The Bachelor Mill owned by Bonterra Resources is strategically located 30km to the southwest. The above information provides an indication of the exploration potential of the property and may not be representative of expected results.

The NE Bachelor property occurs at the junction of two gold-trending deformation zones/corridors, the Guercheville Deformation Zone and the Lamark Corridor (Figure 1). Both of these structural features are host to numerous gold showings, former gold producers and undeveloped potential deposits.

To exercise its option and to acquire a 100% interest, from Gravel Ridge Resources Ltd., in the NE Bachelor claim group, Frontline must pay Gravel Ridge Resources Ltd and 1544230 Ontario Inc. (a private company owned by Perry English) ("Optionors") a total of $85,000 (of which a total of $85,000 is due in years 2-4 of the option agreement), with $15,000 due on signing and grant the Optionors a 1.5% net smelter returns royalty. Frontline may repurchase zero point seven five percent (0.75%) of the royalty for $500,000.

Commentary

Frontline's President and CEO, Mr. Walter Henry, said, "This was a low acquisition cost of a large land package within the past producing Bachelor Lake greenstone belt. The property has good access, limited exploration to date and is just down the road from an operating mill. The acquisition has no minimal property expenditure requirements on the property which affords us the flexibility to evaluate the gold mineralization potential at favourable pace.

NE Bachelor Property Highlights

The NE Bachelor Property is located approximately 5 km east of Highway 113 which links the Chapais-Chibougamau mining camps to central Quebec. Numerous logging roads form the Lac Shortt mine provide easy access.

The property hosts metabasalts of the Obatogamau Formation with subordinate intermediate tuffaceous volcanics, metasediments and gabbroic to ultra-mafic sequences. The lithological sequence appears to be folded along a D2 structure which appears to be a second order structural splay off of the Guercheville deformation zone (Figure 2). Frontline feels the geological and structural features are conducive to orogenic gold deposits but may not be representative of expected results.

The Company will arrange to have a detailed compilation of all previous work which will aid Frontline for follow-up groundwork for the 2021 field season.

The QP has not completed sufficient work to verify the historic information on the properties comprising the NE Bachelor Property, particularly regarding historical exploration, neighbouring companies, and government geological work.
