[{"type":"text","content":"Melkior Behemoth Zone Mise A La Masse Survey(via TheNewswire)\n \n \nTimmins, Ontario / TheNewswire / February 6, 2018 - Melkior Resources Inc. (\"Melkior\") has completed a test Mise a la Masse survey over portions of the Behemoth Zone on the Carscallen Project, Timmins, Ontario. Three different Input points were evaluated over the test grid area: Whaleback Outcrop (9.5 g/t Au); Jowsey 1946 trench; and the shallowest gold zone encountered in CAR-17-16 (17.50ppm gold over 0.30m @77.75m depth). The Mise a la Masse maps have been posted to the Melkior website (http://www.melkior.com/gold-projects/carscallen-gold-project/carscallen-behemot-zone/).\n\n \n \nAsymmetries in the electrical potential plots indicate that the current input zones are not isolated but have preferred current/conductive channels. The results of the method test indicate that the Mise a la Masse survey method could be used more extensively over the Behemoth Zone and elsewhere on the Carscallen Project. Mise al la Masse testing could also be used to establish inter-connectivity between conductive zones in adjacent drill holes.\n\n \n \nThe Mise al la Masse testing of the shallowest gold zone encountered in CAR-17-16 (17.50ppm gold over 0.30m @77.75m depth) appears to indicate that the conductive zone extends to the north. CAR-17-13 and CAR-17-14, both of which encountered the same gold zone as CAR-17-16 are located within the defined elevated zone of voltage potential on the Mise a la Masse Map. The continuation of the gold zone encountered in CAR-17-16 to the south is in question as decreasing voltage potential appears more symmetrical in that direction. A structural offset could be responsible for the apparent conductor termination. Historic maps indicate a VLF conductor is co-incident with the gold zone and that this VLF conductor continues 370m south to Highway 101. This historic map also indicates that the VLF conductor extends 480m northwards and is co-incident with a topographic discontinuity that has been demonstrated to be associated with a fault that contains a gold bearing quartz vein by the latest drilling and analytical results. \n\n \n \nThe \"Whaleback\" gold showing discovered in 2017 is located in a low lying swampy area 200m due west of CAR-17-13. The \"Whaleback\" gold showing returned assays up to 9.5 g/ton Au from grab samples. Mineralizatio...
