  • Announced the beginning of a diamond drill program consisting of 3,000 meters
  • During the winter of 2017, the Corporation completed a geophysical surveys consisting of airborne mag, VLF and EM by helicopter on the property

ROUYN-NORANDA, CANADA–(Aug. 15, 2017) – Explor Resources Inc. (“Explor” or “the Corporation”) (TSX VENTURE:EXS)(OTCQB:EXSFF)(FRANKFURT:E1H1)(BERLIN:E1H1) is pleased to announce the beginning of a diamond drill program consisting of 3,000 meters. During the winter of 2017, the Corporation completed a geophysical surveys consisting of airborne mag, VLF and EM by helicopter on the property. This airborne program has defined some very interesting structures on the property.

The Corporation also increased the Property by staking 12 claims over the last few months. The East Bay Property now consists of 347 claims located in the Duparquet, Hébécourt, Dufresnoy and Destor Townships, representing a total of 11,005.90 hectares as shown on the attached plan. The acquired claims are all along the Porcupine Destor Fault Zone (PDFZ). Explor has recently completed a surface reconnaissance and exploration program where grab samples were taken that graded up to 93 and 100 g/tonne gold.

This program is in line with the Corporation’s strategy of conducting exploration along the Porcupine Destor Fault Zone (PDFZ), where several notable gold deposits have been found in the past, including the Timmins mining camp which produced more than 65 million oz of gold. Explor’s East Bay property is contiguous and wraps around the western and northern portion of the former Clifton Star Resources’ Duparquet property.

The East Bay Gold Property is located to the west of the Consolidated Beattie and Donchester Gold Property and contiguous to the ground on which the former Clifton Star Resources Inc. intersected wide width of gold mineralization (Press Releases dated June 19 and June 6, 2013). The former Consolidated Beattie and Donchester Gold Mines, produced over 1.0 million oz of gold between 1933 and 1956. The former Clifton Star in a previous press release announced (Press Release dated April 09, 2014) significant proven and probable reserves of 1,895,530 oz at 1.50 g/t Au and a measured and indicated resource of 1,127,972 oz at 1.48 g/t Au on their property.

The current exploration program will be based on the coincident geophysical and geochemical anomalies as well as a study by CONSOREM using Paleo-Stress Modeling as it related to the mineralization along the PDFZ in the Duparquet Mining Camp.

  • Announced the acquisition of a 37 mineral claims units package (4 claims) totalling 592 hectares, situated in Holloway and Marriott Townships in the Larder Lake Mining Division, District of Cochrane, Province of Ontario, contiguous to the PG-101 Gold Property
  • With this acquisition, the PG-101 property now consists of 110 mining claims (195 mineral claim units) covering 3,122.8 hectares situated in the Larder Lake mining division

ROUYN-NORANDA, QUEBEC–(May 24, 2017) – Explor Resources Inc. (“Explor” or the “Corporation“) (TSX VENTURE:EXS)(OTCQB:EXSFF)(FRANKFURT:E1H1)(BERLIN:E1H1) is pleased to announce the acquisition of a 37 mineral claims units package (4 claims) totalling 592 hectares, situated in Holloway and Marriott Townships in the Larder Lake Mining Division, District of Cochrane, Province of Ontario, contiguous to the PG-101 Gold Property. With this acquisition, the PG-101 property now consists of 110 mining claims (195 mineral claim units) covering 3,122.8 hectares situated in the Larder Lake mining division, district of Cochrane, in the Marriott and Halloway Townships, Ontario.

Explor Resources Inc., will pay a total of $7,000 CDN and issue 300,000 common shares for an Option to acquire a 100 % interest in the Property. The Optionors have retained a 2.0% NSR in the property. This acquisition is subject to the approval of The TSX Venture Exchange.

The PG -101 additional claims are contiguous to the claim group where Explor’s intersected 52.01 g/t Au over 3.0 m (Press Release of March 24, 2009) and adjacent to the eastern boundary of Kirkland Lake Gold’s former producing Holt Mine Property and only a few kilometers east of their Holloway Mine property. Historic production (1988-2004) from the Holt (McDermott) Mine totals 8.18 million tons at a grade of 0.162 opt Au1(7.42 million tonnes @ 5.6 gpt Au). Measured and indicated resources reported as of Dec. 31, 2016 for the Holt Mine are 6.970 million tonnes at a grade of 4.2 gpt Au2. Production at the Holloway Mine to 2004 is reported as 4.73 million tons at a grade of 0.166 opt Au1 (4.29 million tonnes @ 5.7gpt Au). Measured and indicated resources reported as of Dec. 31, 2016 for the Holloway Mine are 1.370 million tonnes at a grade of 5.3 gpt Au2. Several other smaller deposits in the Harker-Holloway gold camp and in the vicinity of the PG-101 Property include the Buffonta, Mattawasaga and East zone deposits.

The PG-101 Property is underlain by the same succession of mafic volcanic flows, breccias, and tuffs that host the known gold deposits of the area. These volcanic rocks are cut by ENE trending faults that splay from the Porcupine-Destor fault zone (“PDFZ”). The PDFZ is a major deformation zone that crosses along the north boundary of the PG-101 claims in Marriott Township. Proximity to the PDFZ, the Kirkland-Larder Lake Break and other similar regional faults are characteristic of significant gold deposits of the Eastern Abitibi greenstone belt.

Explor plans to continue its exploration program on the PG-101 Property with the integration of this property with the existing property by the compilation of historic work, geological modeling, and the identification of high priority targets. Explor plans to start its exploration program in the spring of 2017. Explor plans on drilling on geophysical targets that were discovered in the fall of 2016.

Explor to Begin a 3,000m Diamond Drill Program on the Timmins Porcupine West Property $EXS.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:26 AM on Monday, May 15th, 2017

Exs logo

  • To begin  3,000 meter drilling program on the Timmins Porcupine West Property
  • Past completed diamond drilling programs have successfully confirmed the model and the gold bearing mineralized structure for more than 2000 meters of strike length at a vertical depth from 600 to 900 meters
  • Currently open on strike and at depth

ROUYN-NORANDA, QUEBEC–(May 15, 2017) – Explor Resources Inc. (“Explor” or the “Corporation“) (TSX VENTURE:EXS)(OTCQB:EXSFF)(FRANKFURT:E1H1)(BERLIN:E1H1) is pleased to announce the beginning of a 3,000 meter drilling program on the Timmins Porcupine West Property.

The past completed diamond drilling programs have successfully confirmed the model and the gold bearing mineralized structure for more than 2000 meters of strike length at a vertical depth from 600 to 900 meters. It is currently open on strike and at depth. The first five phases of drilling (106,000 meters) were concentrated on the “5” Zones of gold mineralization located within south limb of the geo-syncline.

This phase of diamond drilling will be designed to test and to expand the resource by drilling into the high grade gold mineralization in shear zone 4 and shear zone 5 on the south limb of the eastern portion of the orebody. The results from this new phase of drilling will be integrated into the model and the drill hole locations will be determined to maximize the geological information that will be imputed into the 3-D Gemcom model. The “5” Zones identified through modelling strikes east northeast and dips to the north at 70 to 80 degrees. The drilling has confirmed the association of gold mineralization with Quartz feldspar (QFP) and syenite porphyry, similar to that found at the Tahoe Resources Inc. West Timmins Properties. The 3-D geological model may be viewed on our website: www.explorresources.com.

Chris Dupont, President and Chief Executive Officer of Explor Resources Inc. commented: “With this phase of diamond drilling, we expect to continue to report excellent drill results. We expect the continuity of the mineralization from hole to hole as well as the grade encountered to date to continue as we expand the known resource.” 

The Timmins Porcupine West Gold Property consists of 185 unpatented mining units and 3 patented claims located in the Bristol and Ogden Townships in the Timmins-Porcupine Mining Camp for a total 3,200 hectares. The highway 101 bisects the property and provides access from the city of Timmins located 13 km to the east. The property has been explored since 1927 by numerous ground geophysical surveys and diamond drilling of up to 111 holes. In 1984, Dome Exploration discovered and delineated a gold mineralized zone that was approximately 350 meters long and 45 meters wide and open below 350 meters of vertical depth. Explor also announces that Teck Resources Limited has decided to return the Property to Explor.

The Timmins Porcupine West Project has a structural target model developed by Explor based on the “Hollinger-McIntyre-Coniaurum System”. The Hollinger-McIntyre-Coniaurum (HMC) System has produced a total of over 30 million oz of gold and is spatially associated with the Pearl Lake Porphyry.

FORUM: Explor Resources Inc (EXSFF) Why Explor.. Why Now. $EXS.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 6:01 PM on Monday, May 8th, 2017

Exs logo

Rouyn-Noranda, Canada  – Having invested in many GOLD based Junior exploration companies over the past 35 years, I’ve created a personal set of criteria which has worked very well for some time now. Firstly, of course, is where we are in the GOLD cycle? On a daily basis, I read the thoughts, insights & opinions of a variety of GOLD experts. I tend to largely overlook mainstream media in my decision making, as that reporting is generally ‘after the fact’. At this moment, my research suggests GOLD is going considerably higher. Blah, blah, blah…yes, very true, we have seen a number of ‘false’ starts, most notably the Brexit upward surge, that got knocked back overnight. However, based on GOLD’s thirty-year history, a more permanent surge seems inevitable, considering Sovereign Debt levels; the impact of suggested interest rate increases; the Chinese plan toward a GOLD backed currency; and an elevated GOLD accumulation strategy by many of the most savvy investors in the world. Given I have held the view that USD$2,000 GOLD has been on the horizon for some time, why did I decide on EXS/EXSFF/E1H1 as my ‘flagship’ investment? Initially, a very dear friend brought the Company to my attention. More importantly, all the experts agree the greatest return on investment in a bull GOLD environment, is in the small cap, GOLD exploration sector, especially in a Company with great assets.

I visited the Company’s website www.explorresouces.com & discovered that this overlooked equity held ten GOLD & three Base Metals property groupings, predominantly along the GOLD rich Porcupine Destor Fault in northern Ontario & Quebec. Two of their properties have been developed to the point that NI 43-101 reports provide resource estimates. In my experience, I had never seen such a small company, with so many properties of merit. I then spoke directly with President & CEO Chris Dupont, a Mining Engineer with over 40 years of mining & exploration experience, and was deeply impressed with his detailed knowledge about every parcel of land in the Company’s portfolio.

As I’ve taken advantage of every weakness in the stock price to add to my position, I’ve stayed in touch with Dupont, and a variety of third parties, in an effort to keep all shareholders informed on an ongoing basis. Most recently, I’ve mentioned a proposed drilling program at the Company’s East Bay property block, near Duparquet, Quebec. Using the latest, most sophisticated geophysics technologies, a short list of promising targets has been established. The Company is hoping to begin drilling by mid June, which should get the attention of IAMGOLD, adjacent both to the east & west of the East Bay grouping. Further, progress has been made at the PG-101 property, and the Company is optomistic some drilling may take place in the near future. Recently completed geophysics have identified a number of very promising targets. I’ve also heard a rumour that the long-awaited drilling results from the January/February program on the properties north of the Glencore Kidd VMS Mine may have been processed by the lab. I’m hopeful Explor will put out a News Release shortly. Dupont has always been adamant about the ‘cluster effect of Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) deposits’, and, encouraged by the discovery of exhalite on four separate occasions now, I’m certain the search will continue. Additionally, the status of the TPW GOLD Deposit remains a conundrum. Other than the obvious interest in the deposit, and its perceived potential by TAHOE, & by GOLDCORP (who hold a 3% Net Smelter Return on the property), I haven’t been able to get anything further on plans moving forward.

Lastly, I’m hearing an updated video interview with Dupont should be available within the next couple of weeks.

Explor Announces Increase of Ogden Property With Acquisition of 2 Mining Claims $EXS.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:52 AM on Wednesday, January 4th, 2017

  • Announced the acquisition of 2 mining claims (3 mineral claim units) situated in the Porcupine mining division, district of Cochrane
  • Claims are located in Ogden Township contiguous and to the east of the Ogden Property

ROUYN-NORANDA, QUEBEC–(Jan. 4, 2017) – Explor Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:EXS)(OTCQB:EXSFF)(FRANKFURT:E1H1)(BERLIN:E1H1) (“Explor” or “the Corporation”) is pleased to announce the acquisition of 2 mining claims (3 mineral claim units) situated in the Porcupine mining division, district of Cochrane, in the Ogden Township, Ontario. These claims are located in Ogden Township contiguous and to the east of the Ogden Property. Highway 101 West is north of the property and provided excellent access to the city of Timmins. The claims were acquired because of encouraging results obtained in Explor’s past exploration on this property.

Explor Resources Inc. will pay CDN $1,000 and issue 100,000 common shares to acquire a 100% interest in the additional Ogden claim. The optionors have retained a 2% NSR in the property. This acquisition is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

With this acquisition, the Ogden property now consists of 15 mining claims (99 mineral claim units) covering 1,588 hectares situated in the Porcupine mining division, district of Cochrane, in the Ogden and Price Townships, Ontario. The Ogden property has been previously explored by Hollinger Mines, Tex-Sol Exploration, Inmet Mining Corporation, Amax Mineral Exploration, Noranda Exploration and Knick Exploration. The majority of the holes drilled by previous operators were less than 100 meters in length. Historically on the Ogden Property, the only hole that hit significant mineralization was a diamond drill hole by Tex-Sol Exploration in 1965 which returned 6.0 g/t Au over 9.1 m at a shallow depth. On the TPW Gold Property significant mineralization was intersected below 300 meters of vertical depth requiring drill holes of 500 to 600 m in length. Explor has completed a drill program on the Ogden Property with the following encouraging results:

Hole #OG-16-02 intersected 2.06 g/t Au over 1.50m from 154.5 to 156.0 meters

Hole #OG-16-05 intersected 1.99 g/t Au over 1.80m from 438.0 to 439.8 meters.

The preliminary exploration program conducted by Explor consisted of six NQ holes for a total of 3,648 meters of diamond drilling. The holes averaged 600 meters in length. The property was found to contained favourable geology to host gold mineralization. The diamond drill program used geophysical targets identified by Explor’s ground geophysical surveys conducted by Explor and Knick Exploration. The program was successful in that all IP targets were intersected. The geological environment identified was similar to the Timmins Porcupine West Property. Rock type intersected included Quartz Feldspar Porphyry (QFP), Mafic Volcanics, and Sulfide zones containing fine grain pyrite mineralization.

The most significant deposits in Timmins are spatially associated with porphyry units that are in proximity to the Porcupine Destor Fault. The deposits appear to be also associated with splay faults that trend off and to the North of the Porcupine Destor fault inside an interpreted splay fault corridor.
