(TSXV: CVA.V) (\"Cava\") announces that it has expanded its land position by staking additional ground contiguous to its Casa Berardi North Property and its Casa Berardi Cancor Extension Property.The Company staked an additional 34 cells comprising approximately 1700 hectares adjacent and contiguous to the Casa Berardi North Property to cover favourable geology where numerous drill holes intersected significant Au values in past exploration programs.In addition, Cava staked another 30 cells comprising approximately 1500 hectares adjacent and contiguous to the Casa Berardi Cancor Extension Property. These cells were staked to cover prospective geology with airborne EM anomalies and strike extensions of mineralization on adjacent Cancor/Iamgold/Vale claims which contain significant gold and base metal values.Cava intends to carry out up to 4,000 metres of drilling later in the year on these properties as outlined in the press release dated August 16, 2016. In prior years, Cava and its joint venture partner have spent in excess of $1.8 million in exploration on these properties including airborne geophysical survey work, line cutting and 24 drill holes for approximately 4,200 metres.The Casa Berardi Properties consist of two non contiguous claim groups (the Casa Berardi North and the Casa Berardi Cancor Extension Property) that are located in the Casa Berardi area of northwestern Quebec. The North property is located approximately 10 kms southeast from the Casa Berardi mine which has produced in excess of 1.9 million ounces of gold since it commenced production in 1988.The properties are located in the Harricana-Turgeon Greenstone Belt in the northwest corner of the Abitibi Subprovince in the province of Quebec. This greenstone belt hosts the Matagami, Selbaie, Joutel and Casa Berardi mining camps in Quebec and the Detour Lake Mine in Ontario.Gold mineralization on the Casa Berardi North Property was discovered in 1994 over a 600 metre strike length along a major regional fault structure called the \"Lac Janelle Fault\". Historic drill results included 6.10 gpt gold over 1.5 metres and 2.39 gpt gold over 1.8 metres in hole 94-12. In 2012, a five hole 727.9 metre diamond drill prog...
