(″ Cartier ″ or the ″ Company ″) (TSXV: ECR; FSE: 6CA) is pleased to announce the tenth batch of results from the 100,000-m drilling program (2 drill rigs) and a new style of gold mineralization (intrusion-related gold deposits) within the underexplored Pontiac sedimentary Group in Hope Sector, on the 100%-owned Cadillac Project, located in Val-d’Or (Abitibi, Quebec). The newly identified largely untested conceptual exploration opportunity is situated immediately south of the prolific Cadillac Fault and supports significant upside potential for large scale gold mineralization typical of porphyry intrusion-related systems in the Pontiac sediments that are reminiscent of the Canadian Malartic Camp. Strategic Highlights from Hope Sector Drill Hole Results (Figures 1 to 3)Porphyry #1 Zone CA26-327 intersected 5.2 g/t Au over 5.0 m including 10.8 g/t Au over 1.0 m.CA26-330 graded 1.2 g/t Au over 25.5 m including 12.2 g/t Au over 0.5 m with visible gold grains.CA26-331 reported 1.1 g/t Au over 15.0 m including 9.5 g/t Au over 1.0 m.CA26-332 intersected 1.0 g/t Au over 18.4 m with visible gold grains. New Zone CA26-331 intersected 10.5 g/t Au over 1.0 m.CA26-327 graded 6.7 g/t Au over 2.2 m. Significance for Investors Holes CA26-327, 330, 331 and 332 clearly demonstrate the presence of a new shallow and extensive porphyritic felsic intrusion-related gold system (Porphyry #1). The mineralization extends over a minimum of 750 m in strike length by 250 m in depth and remains open in all directions, suggesting upside exploration potential. Gold value distribution ​​in this new host rock ranges from 1.0 to 3.5 g/t Au over significant lengths of 8.0 to 25.5 meters, paving the way for the discovery of a large-scale gold mineralized system.A second porphyritic felsic intrusion (Porphyry #2) has been discovered 2 km east of Porphyry #1. Two drill holes have been completed so far, with one intersecting visible gold grains, highlighting its strong mineralization potential. Assay results are currently...
