Generic Gold Corporation announced that drilling is underway on the Company's inaugural diamond drill program on its Belvais Project, located in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt of Québec, along the Normétal Fault Zone. This large, fully funded 7,500m drill program will be drilled in two phases and will target both orogenic gold and gold-rich VMS targets. The initial 3,000m for Phase 1 has commenced, with the additional 4,500m of Phase 2 planned upon receipt of Phase 1 assays. As previously announced drill targets were generated following compilation of all available data, including recently completed VTEM and soil sampling surveys, as well as historical drilling analysis and geophysical work. The Belvais project lies directly south-east of Amex Exploration's Perron Project, which recently announced a new high-grade gold discovery (the 210 Zone) along the Normétal Fault and is also directly east and south-east of Starr Peak's NewMétal Project, which recently announced high-grade VMS mineralization on their Normetmar target. Both of these new discoveries occur along the Normétal Fault which is of particular significance for Generic Gold, as the Company holds over 20 km of the Normétal Fault on its Belvais claims and is one of the largest landholders in the area with 12,563 hectares. Interpretation and modelling of MAG and EM data has provided an additional 14 gold and 10 VMS targets to be tested by the Company. In addition, Generic has interpreted historical drilling across the property which the Company believes missed EM conductor plates. Some of these historical results show anomalous silver and base metal values. The majority of targets are in proximity to the historical Normétal mine and important major structures, such as the Normétal and Fermont faults. The Company will continue to keep the market updated with drill results once they become available and are compiled.
