About this update from Galway Metals, Inc.

[{"type":"text","content":"Galway Metals Purchases Additional Claims at its Estrades Gold, Zinc, Copper and Silver VMS Property in Quebec, CanadaTORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / February 5, 2018 / Galway Metals Inc. (TSX-V: GWM; OTC PINK: GAYMF) (the ''Company'' or ''Galway'') is pleased to announce that it has purchased 14 additional claims adjacent to its Estrades polymetallic VMS property located in the northern Abitibi of western Quebec, Canada. The claims are located along the Newiska felsic rhyolite horizon that has had intersections such as 1% copper plus 42 g/t silver over 9.4 metres (true width unknown). The acquired claims are located immediately south of the Estrades mine and existing resource, and includes a regional cross fault that may be an important mineralized feature in the camp. Galway's claims surround the new claims to the north, east and west. As such, the acquisition will allow for a full, uninterrupted gravity geophysical survey that is planned for March, as well as other exploration activities over time, along the full 16km extent of the Company's Newiska horizon. The newly acquired claims and area of the geophysical surveys can be seen in Figure 1.\nIn January, Galway began its 13,000-metre drill program for 2018, which will target extensions to the Estrades resource, deep drilling below the resource and drilling at Newiska. Galway currently has three geophysical programs underway or planned during this winter's exploration program. Results from these three programs will be used, in conjunction with the approximately 200,000 metres of historic drilling, to assist Galway in prioritizing its drill program in the Company's search for new mineralized intrusives throughout the property. The geophysics will also allow Galway to identify high chargeability anomalies to depths of up to 2,000 metres in the Company's search for sulphidic-rich source vents below the existing Estrades resource and elsewhere on the 20,000+ hectare property. The three geophysical programs include the following:\n\n The reprocessing of a Titan induced polarization (IP) and electromagnetic (EM) survey conducted in 2007 over the Main Zone at Estrades, using improved proprietary software from Quantec Geoscience. This is scheduled for February 2018.\n\n\n Conduct a new Titan IP and EM survey over large portions of both the Estrades and Newiska horizons in search of coppe...
