(TSXV: MEK) (Metals Creek or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce drill results from its recently completed 4 hole diamond drill program totaling 1115 m (meters) targeting the Thomas Ogden Zone (TOG), Thomas Ogden West and the Naybob South Zone located in the heart of the Timmins gold camp.The Property is held under a joint venture in which Metals Creek owns 50%, and Goldcorp Canada Ltd. (\"Goldcorp\") owns 50% (as manager and on behalf of the Porcupine Joint Venture, a joint venture between Goldcorp Inc. and Goldcorp Canada Ltd.) with MEK being the operator of the project. The Ogden claims cover eight kilometers of strike length of the Porcupine-Destor Fault between Goldcorp's 16.5 million oz. Dome Mine and Tahoe Resources West Timmins Mine. The vast majority of the Porcupine-Destor Fault on the property is underexplored, compared to other properties in the Timmins Gold camp. Hole OG17-41 was drilled within the Naybob South Stratigraphy and was drilled on the western limits of the Naybob South Zone. Hole OG17-41 returned multiple gold intercepts including a downhole intercept (155.1m to 156.15m) of 2.12 g/t (grammes per tonne) gold over 1.05m (meters) hanging wall to the Naybob South Main Zone. A second parallel zone of mineralization was intersected, the Naybob South Main Zone returning a downhole intercept (189.43m to 192.72) of 4.16 g/t gold over 3.29m extending mineralization an additional 65m downdip. A third zone of mineralization was intercepted footwall to the Naybob South Main Zone returning a downhole intercept (218.57m to 220.20m) of 3.01 g/t gold over 1.63m.
