Chibougamau Independent Mines Inc. announced the update on work undertaken and to be undertaken on several of its Chibougamau area properties and other matters. Berrigan Property: Over the last several months, the company has been constructing new sections and plans for its Berrigan and BatemanJaculet assets. Emphasis was directed toward defining structural controls of mineralization and drill targets. This was followed up by property site investigations by three senior geologists including a specialist in structural geology. On the Berrigan property, several new structural features were found as well as new areas of mineralization. 26 channel, panel and grab samples were taken and have been sent for analysis. Four drill holes have been spotted in order to test the potential down dip or plunge extensions of zincgoldsilver mineralization intersected in shallower drill holes in a coarse brecciated fault zone. The Berrigan Property is the only area of significant zinc, gold and silver mineralization in the Chibougamau Mining Camp. Previous drilling, both from surface and underground via a short ramp encountered economic type mineralization as reported in the August 15, 2012. BatemanJaculet Property: On its BatemanJaculet property a new longitudinal section was compiled along the strike extension of the mineralized horizon. In addition, a new interpretation extends the potential of the copper mineralization encountered in its 2013 drilling. Additional drilling is recommended. The table below reproduces previous Chibougamau Independent Mines drill results as announced on September 9, 2013, September 18, 2013 and October 3, 2013. Mont Sorcier: As the company announced on September 22, 2016 and October 3, 2016, the company succeeded in completing the acquisition of claims such that the company consolidated 100% interest in the Mont Sorcier vanadiumirontitanium deposit and then optioned the deposit to Vendome Mining Corp. Vendome is currently drawing up an initial exploration program in order to be able to complete certain surface work prior to the start of winter. Nepton Property: at the Nepton1 area shallow drilling returned significant but narrow intersections of copper and gold: 6.85% Cu and 1.23 gpt Au over 0.6 meter; 5.92% Cu and 0.54 gpt Au over 1.2 meter; 1.07% Cu and 0.06 gpt Au over 2.1 meter; 1.33% Cu over 2.9 meter; 3.61% Cu over 2.9 meter. At the Chevrette showing, a grab sample returned 3.7% Cu, 3.2gpt Au and 5.5 gpt Ag while a trench sampling reported 9.0% Cu over 0.8 meter and 4.11 gpt Au over 0.8 meter.
