[{"type":"text","content":" Highlights: These results from Zone 5NE are the best from Cartier drilling on the project considering the high grades factored over the core lengths that were intercepted. Phase II drilling is underway and Phase III will test the extensions of the new Zone 5NE. VAL-D’OR, Quebec, Feb. 12, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cartier Resources Inc. (TSX-V: ECR) (\"Cartier\") reports drill results grading 10.6 g/t Au over 6.0 m included within 4.5 g/t Au over 21.0 m both included within a 57.0 m section grading 2.5 g/t Au. As well, a section grading 7.5 g/t Au over 4.0 m is included within a 13.0 m section grading 3.2 g/t Au (FIGURE). All of these results are in the Zone 5NE of the Chimo Mine property, located 45 km east of Val-d'Or. The new results, which are situated at a depth of 650 m, are in addition to: 12.4 g/t Au over 5.0 m included within 5.9 g/t Au over 12.0 m (FIGURE), recently reported by Cartier, and within a 100-m radius of the new results. The potential of this area is open in all directions. Zone 5NE is located only 25 m from the 5M4 Zone and 450 m from the existing underground infrastructure at this depth (FIGURE). « The results recently obtained from Zones 5NE and 5M4 will monopolize the first part of the Phase III drill program in order to explore the continuity of the zones » commented Philippe Cloutier, President and CEO.
