This anomaly is comparable in size and intensity to the gold-arsenic soil footprint of the Eleonore deposit. This target is located right on the edge of the Cheechoo property where significant results were recently released by Sirios Resources Inc (\"Sirios\") (TSXV: SOI).\n\nThe two geochemical soil surveys cover the Eleonore property (Les Mines Opinaca Ltée, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Goldcorp Inc) and the Eleonore South property (Azimut-Goldcorp-Eastmain JV). The combined data integration and processing comprised 8,315 soil samples (B Horizon) over an area totalling 118.6 km2. Sampling and analytical protocols are comparable and allow this data integration. Conducted in 2005 and 2006, the two soil surveys are in the public domain (the survey covering the Eleonore property has been performed by Virginia Gold Mines).\n\nSignificant results for the Eleonore gold deposit soil grid are as follows:\n\n\nSalient gold and arsenic values above the 90th percentile delineate an anomalous area measuring at least 2.5 km by 1.5 km, with peak values of 236 ppb Au and 569 ppm As \nThe deposit area is covered by 364 samples over 6.9 km2 and includes 3 samples with values higher than 100 ppb Au and 31 samples with values greater than 100 ppm As \nWestern extension of this anomaly is truncated by the Opinaca Reservoir \...
