[{"type":"text","content":"Colibri Resource Identifies Several New Areas of Interest at Western Evelyn - Grab Samples as High as 27.5 g/t GoldDieppe, New Brunswick--(Newsfile Corp. - June 8, 2020) - Colibri Resource Corporation (TSXV: CBI) (\"Colibri\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that it has received assay results from its geological mapping and sampling program currently in-progress on the western side of the Evelyn property. Results include a grab sample which returned a value of 27.5 grams per tonne (\"g/t\") Au which consisted of a quartz veinlet box-work with oxidized pyrite and goethite. During recently completed field work aimed at following-up the high grade result, visible gold was recognized in a sample taken from the same area of mineralized sub-crop.The western side of the Evelyn property currently being mapped comprises an area of approximately 250 hectares (\"Ha\") and is largely covered by alluvium and colluvium. The western side of the Evelyn property has not had the same level mapping and prospecting as the remainder of the property. A total of 54 grabs samples have been taken from small areas of sub-crop and outcrop exposed through the cover during the current field program. Three samples returned values greater than 2.0 g/t Au, 6 samples returned values greater that 0.25 g/t Au, and a total of 15 samples returned anomalous Au (> 0.02 g/t). The locations and grades of the grab samples are indicated on accompanying map.The high-grade samples indicate three areas for future focussed exploration. The sample returning 27.5 g/t Au is located approximately 350 metres (\"m\") southwest of previous samples which returned high grade Au from grab sample (e.g. 43.9 g/t) taken from a north-south (\"N-S\") trending quartz vein. Although poorly exposed, the new high-grade sample appears to be associated with a N-S structure and its discovery extends the high-grade footprint of the Cerro Rojo target domain. Two samples returning 2.46 g/t Au and 0.99 g/t Au are separated by a distance of approximately 35 m and are located between the Cerro Rojo and El Sahuaro target areas. These samples are coincident with an area of anomalous soil samples. The third area of interest is represented by a sample returning a value of 7.10 g/t Au located near the western boundary of the property. All the higher-grade samples consist of quartz veins and vei...
