[{"type":"text","content":" The management of Sirios Resources Inc. (TSX-V: SOI) is pleased to announce assay results from 8 additional diamond drill holes totaling 1,619 metres from the September 2021 drilling program on the Cheechoo gold property, Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec. The most significant results of this drilling are listed below: 3.46 g/t Au over 31.7 m, including 6.50 g/t Au over 6.6 m (CH21-279) 7.69 g/t Au over 9.9 m, including 68.84 g/t Au over 1.0 m (CH21-280) 6.18 g/t Au over 11.4 m, including 46.04 g/t Au over 1.0 m (CH21-280) 7.07 g/t Au over 9.0 m, including 50.40 g/t Au over 1.1 m (CH-288) 3.17 g/t Au over 17.4 m, including 16.74 g/t Au over 2.9 m (CH21-290) 0.85 g/t Au over 57.7 m (CH21-290) 0.78 g/t Au over 38.5 m (CH21-289) Holes #270 and 280 show again the continuity of gold mineralization in the area of the north-eastern contact between the tonalite and the metasedimentary rocks. The gold zones were already intersected by holes RC-01, RC-02, #281 and #285 of the 2021 campaign, with intervals assaying up to 2.83 g/t Au over 55.0 m and 4.90 g/t Au over 22.0 m (ref. press releases dated 2021/12/14 and 2022/02/09). Further to the west, from the drill holes with assay results announced today, were intersected as expected pluri-metric to deca-metric gold zones with grades varying from 0.4 g/t Au to 1.8 g/t Au, including metric to pluri-metric zones with grades from 3.0 g/t Au up to 50.0 g/t Au. These new diamond drilling results confirm again the continuity of the gold mineralization in the area of the conceptual pit defined in the 2020 Mineral Resource Estimate (see Figure #1). This drilling data will be used in the preparation of the next mineral resource estimate for the Cheechoo Project, scheduled to be completed this year and which is expected to include the conversion of a significant amount of inferred resources to indicated resources. The summer 2021 drilling program included 30 NQ-size drill holes and 2 RC holes totaling 6,789 meters. There are still 6 drill holes with pending assay results.
