[{"type":"text","content":"Macrodiamond Drill Program Completed at Tres-Or's Guigues Pipe in QuebecVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 16, 2021) - Tres-Or Resources Ltd. (TSXV: TRS) (OTC Pink: TRSFF) (\"Tres-Or\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to report completion of the Company's first macrodiamond drill program at the Guigues Kimberlite Pipe in southwestern Québec. The planned 5 holes have been completed to 300.00 m each, providing more than 10 tonnes of kimberlite sample for mini-bulk macrodiamond testing. Four of the holes ended in kimberlite at 300.00 m, and the fifth hole entered metasediment county rock at 262.10 m. The drill was operated 24 hours a day by Forage DCB Drilling Inc. of Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec and finished the entire 1,500 m of HQ (64 mm diameter) core program in one week.Figure 1: Schematic Cross Section presenting the November 2021 drilling program for macrodiamond testing of the Guigues Kimberlite PipeTo view an enhanced version of Figure 1, please visit:https://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/2478/103694_53706018b4eb8919_001full.jpgDrill holes completed:TR-21-01: northern set-up, vertical to 300.00 m to end of hole in kimberlite.

Top of kimberlite at 51.25 m.TR-21-05: southwestern set-up, inclined 80° north (azimuth 360°) to 300.00 m in kimberlite at end of hole. Top of kimberlite at 51.10 m.The kimberlite core will provide the sample for the recovery of macrodiamonds by testing at an independent Canadian laboratory. Following this drill program, Tres-Or anticipates recovering all diamonds greater 0.425 mm in diameter, from a mini-bulk sample total weight in excess of 10 tonnes. Already, approximately 8 tonnes have been collected during this drill program. Logging of the core was completed on the Timiskaming First Nations Reserve in Notre Dame du Nord, and supports multiple intrusive phases of kimberlite, each with the potential or carrying a different concentration of macrodiamonds.Image of Guigues 2021 kimberlite drill coreTo vi...
