(TSXV: FG) (FSE: 3FA) (\"Falcon\" or \"the Company\") is pleased to announce it has received the assay results from it's recent drilling on the company's Central Canada Gold Project near Atikokan, ON. The results have confirmed the presence of gold mineralization to a depth of 83 metres below surface of the historic Central Canada Gold Mine. Gold mineralization has been noted in a strongly deformed granite along strike of the past producing mine trend. Drill hole CC20-01 intersected high-grade gold mineralization at 67 meters depth containing an interval of 10.17 g/t Au over 3 meters as well as gold mineralization to a depth of 86.33 meters including 1.39 g/t Au over 5.83 meters: totaling 1.21 g/t Au over 19 meters. The results also outlined a new mineralized zone untested by previous operators at 104 meters depth, which sampled 18.6 g/t Au over 1 meter.Falcon has initiated the rush re-analysis of core samples which contained visible gold from CC20-02 and CC20-03. This will ensure accurate data is available for the field crew as the company continues to delineate the Central Canada Mineralized Zone along strike with a series of 6 shallow holes (totaling 530 meters). To ensure accuracy with sample preparation at the lab, which may impact the detection of gold, the company has requested re-analyzing the samples at a coarser size fraction prior to metallic screening. Highlights of the initial hole along the past producing are listed below:To view an enhanced version of this graphic [Central Canada Drill Highlights], please visit:https://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/4151/57058_table.jpgProject SummaryGold mineralization can be traced across the Central Canada structure with more recent drilling by Interquest Resources Corp. (1985) intersecting over 1 meter @ approximately 30 g/t gold in diamond drill core and 23.3 meters @ 0.83 g/t gold and 10.61m @ 1.32 g/t gold in 2012 by Terra-X Minerals. Trenching work in 2011 indicated significant gold mineralization to the south of the historic Sapawe Gold Mine, where the operator sampled up to 6.7 g/t gold along a strongly mineralized shear zone.Gold prospects in the Central Canada Project are...
