(See MEK news release dated August 16, 2023). Highlights include 1.04 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) over 18.70 meters (m) in continuous channel sampling. Mineralization is hosted within pervasive iron carbonate/silicified altered greywacke with associated 0.25 to 3 percent pyrite +/- arsenopyrite and cross-cutting quartz-carbonate stringers and veins. The main stratigraphy hosting the gold mineralization is striking roughly 100 to 110 degrees with dips essentially vertical, similar to other parts of the Shebandowan Greenstone Belt. Quartz-carbonate veins and stockwork crosscut stratigraphy striking SW @ approximately 230 degrees and predominately dip to the NW at various inclinations including occasional flat laying veins. In addition, grab samples consisting mainly of quartz-carbonate vein material at Echo assayed up to 18.4 g/t Au.(See Figure 1) (Note: The surface grab samples described in this news release are selective by nature and are unlikely to represent average grades of the property.)Prospecting and mechanical trenching on the SCGP have resulted in the discovery of several new zones and styles of gold mineralization. It has become evident within several zones of mineralization (Echo Zone, Main Zone) that an alteration halo consisting mainly of iron carbonate and silicification ranging from 50 to 100m in width forms part of a mineralized trend across the whole property. The presence of quartz veinlets/stringers as well as cubic pyrite +/- arsenopyrite appears to be...
