[{"type":"text","content":"QcX Gold to Complete Surface Exploration Program at Golden Giant, James Bay, QuébecMontréal, Québec--(Newsfile Corp. - September 12, 2022) - QcX Gold Corp. (TSXV: QCX) (OTCQB: QCXGF) (FSE: 21MA) (\"QcX\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that it will conduct a surface exploration program on its Golden Giant Project, located in the James Bay region of Québec. The objectives of the program are to follow up on promising results obtained from the inaugural 2021 drill program, as well as conduct initial surface prospecting on the Kali East block, which to date has not been explored by the Company.Program Highlights and Goals:- Focused exploration along the southern limb of a folded gabbroic unit, found on the eastern side of the Golden Giant East Block. Drill holes GG-21-14 and GG-21-16, which were drilled on the northern limb of this unit, produced 0.52g/t Au over 5.5m and 0.4g/t Au over 10.2m respectively. The hinge zone and southern limb will be explored in further detail to look for extensions to the observed mineralization (see Figure 2). - Boots on the ground on the Kali East Block (see Figure 3). This will be the first time the Company has sent geologists to this portion of the project for surface prospecting, which was previously obtained from Harfang Exploration (see press release dated September 9, 2020). - Follow up surface work on the Golden Giant West Block, where drilling obtained anomalous results of up to 1.44g/t Au over 0.8m in GG-21-02 and 0.9% Zn over 0.5m in GG-21-03. Potential for both gold and VMS mineralization exists in this area. The Company also recently obtained high-resolution satellite imagery of the three Golden Giant blocks from Pacific Geomatics Limited. Images were taken by Maxar satellites with resolutions of up to 15cm high definition. With this high-resolution dataset, outcrops are easily observable, which can then be mapped and digitized. This data will greatly aid geologists while performing the surface prospecting program. The Golden Giant project comprises 3 properties, Golden Giant East, Golden Giant West and the Kali East block, covering 18,992 hectares and is contiguous to Azimut Exploration Inc.'s Patwon project as shown in Figure 1.
