[{"type":"text","content":"Vior Expands Surface Gold Showing Footprint at Belleterre and Strengthens Its Exploration TeamMONTEAL, QC / ACCESSWIRE / November 9, 2022 / Vior Inc. (\"Vior\" or the \"Corporation\"), (TSXV:VIO)(OTCQB:VIORF)(FRANKFURT:VL51) is pleased to announce additional field exploration results that indicate strong high-grade gold potential at its Quebec-based district-scale Belleterre gold project (\"Belleterre\" or \"Project\") in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region. These new findings are from samples collected during the Summer 2022 field exploration program. The current gold results are located 250 metres (\"m\") southwest of the Lac Paradis results that were previously published on January 28, 2022.Mark Fedosiewich, President & CEO of Vior, stated, \"We are very encouraged by these new results. The Lac Paradis showing was already recognized as one of many strong exploration targets at Belleterre, and these new surface results reconfirm the extension potential. The Lac Paradis showing, located 10 kilometres (\"km\") from the historic Belleterre mining camp, reinforces the exceptional regional gold footprint at Belleterre.\"Additional communications will be disclosed in due course as Vior's technical team advances on a global compilation and drill-targeting program at Belleterre.Lac Paradis ShowingThe Lac Paradis showing confirmed in Vior's 2021 preliminary validation program, was first discovered in the 1940's and was minimally explored at that time by shallow drilling. This prospective region occurs within the southwest extension of the Belleterre mining camp's historic brownfield area. Specifically, the showing is located 10 km from the past-producing area and is situated in a major 2.3km NE-SW sheared deformation corridor within Vior's property (refer to Map 1 and Map 2). The multi-kilometer structure that encompasses the Lac Paradis gold showing has been confirmed by geophysics, LIDAR and field observation descriptions. The high-grade mineralised sample results being reported in this press release (refer to Table 1), confirm a significant expansion of the historic Lac Paradis showing footprint, with a 250m long by 50m to 100m wide new prospective area. The mineralised system is wider and more extended than previous data suggested, and has a multi-kilometer major sheared deformation corridor that remains open along both the N...
