Richmont Mines Provides Delineation and Phase 2 Exploration Drilling Update for Island Gold
TORONTO, October 12, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Delineation Drilling Continues to Demonstrate Significant Potential to Convert High Grade Inferred Resources within the 2016 PEA Area
Richmont Mines Inc. (TSX: RIC) (NYSE MKT: RIC) ("Richmont" or the "Corporation"), is pleased to provide an update on delineation drilling within the expanded 2016 Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") area as well as initial results from the strategic Phase 2 exploration drilling program at the cornerstone Island Gold Mine. (All results are reported with estimated true width with high grade assays capped at 95 g/t gold).
"We are very pleased with the results from our near-mine exploration and delineation drilling programs as the results clearly demonstrate the significant potential to grow our near-mine reserve inventory and identify new resource blocks located within the 2016 PEA area. These ounces could extend mine life above the 1,000 metre level and be incorporated into the near-term mine plan utilizing current infrastructure," stated Renaud Adams, CEO. He continued, "We are also reporting initial results from our recently launched 18 to 24 month Phase 2 exploration program that continues to show the potential to increase resources laterally along strike, primarily to the east, and at depth below the 1,000 metre level."
2016 PEA DELINEATION DRILLING PROGRAM (Figure 1 )
Delineation drilling is focused in three key areas: 1) the western portion of the 2016 PEA area between the 460 and 860 metre levels; 2) the potential fourth mining horizon between the 860 and 1,000 metre levels; and 3) the eastern portion of the 2016 PEA area, within Extensions 1 and 2, east of the first dyke.
Approximately 41,947 metres of delineation drilling have been completed to date. Drill results continue to provide increased confidence that a significant portion of the inferred resources located in the 2016 PEA area could potentially be converted to measured and indicated resources by year end, which could be incorporated into the short-term mine plan and support a potential near-term growth opportunity. Currently, two drill rigs continue to operate from the 740 exploration drift and one from the 620 exploration drift to complete the 50,000 metre delineation drilling program planned for 2016.
Recent drilling highlights from the western portion of the 2016 PEA area, between the 460 and 860 metre levels, include (Table 1 and Table 2):
- Hole 450-467-54: 28.26 g/t gold over 2.56 metres

PHASE 2 EXPLORATION PROGRAM (Figure 2 )
The 18 to 24 month, 142,000 metre Phase 2 exploration drilling program that was launched in July continues to focus on four key priorities: 1) to expand near-mine resources within the 2016 PEA limits of the main deposit; 2) continuing to test the lateral continuity of the known deposit to the east to potentially add new resource blocks with the overall objective of extending mine life above the 1,000 metre level; 3) to identify the next million-plus ounce, high grade inferred resource in the vertical extension of the deposit between the 1,000 and 1,500 metre levels; and 4) continuing to test high priority regional gold targets across the prospective Island Gold property.
Near-Mine Exploration Drilling Program (Figure 3 )
The main objective of the near-mine exploration drilling program is to expand near-mine inferred resources within the 2016 PEA area by infilling gaps between current inferred resource blocks.
Approximately 10,232 metres of a planned 22,000 metres for 2016 have been completed with encouraging results received to date, which increases our confidence for resource expansion within the 2016 PEA area. Currently, one drill rig is operating from underground with a second drill to be mobilized later in October.
Recent drilling highlights from the western portion, between the 740 and 860 metre levels, include (Table 2):
- Hole 740-477-06: 13.88 g/t gold over 7.52 metres
- Hole 740-477-07: 5.03 g/t gold over 8.11 metres
- Hole 740-477-08: 6.13 g/t gold over 10.65 metres
- Hole 740-483-03: 17.69 g/t gold over 8.33 metres
- Hole 740-483-17: 31.53 g/t gold over 2.56 metres
- Hole 740-486-06: 11.97 g/t gold over 4.49 metres
Recent drilling highlights from the potential fourth mining horizon, between the 860 and 1,000 metre levels, include (Table 3):
- Hole 620-517-41: 12.60 g/t gold over 3.96 metres
- Hole 620-517-42: 12.47 g/t gold over 3.36 metres

Recent highlights from the Extension 1 and Extension 2 areas, located in the eastern portion, above the 860 metre level and east of the first dyke include (Table 4 and Table 5):
- Hole 620-524-24: 9.42 g/t gold over 3.16 metres
- Hole 620-524-26: 5.91 g/t gold over 4.10 metres
- Hole 620-524-28: 15.56 g/t gold over 4.30 metres

- Hole 620-543-53: 8.34 g/t gold over 2.36 metres
Eastern Lateral Exploration and Infill Drilling Program (Figure 4 )
A key objective of the Phase 2 eastern lateral drilling program is to add a new resource block where Phase 1 drilling intercepted 33.3 g/t gold over 2.6 metres located approximately 300 metres east of the main deposit, outside the 2016 PEA area.
Approximately 3,833 metres of a planned 9,000 metres (including 3,000 metres of infill drilling) for the second half of 2016 have been completed to test the lower portion of this mineralized area. Drilling in the upper portion as well as the eastern extension of the mineralized area will be completed over the balance of the year. Currently, one drill rig is operating from surface to test the eastern extension and one drill operating from underground will be mobilized in mid-October.
Recent highlights include (Table 6):
- Hole GD-586-01: 4.02 g/t gold over 3.56 metres
- Hole GD-586-02A: 10.41 g/t gold over 2.06 metres
Deep Exploration Drilling Program Highlights: (Figure 5 )
The 2016 deep directional exploration drilling program is to test the eastern and western down plunge corridors between the 1,000 and 1,500 metre levels with the overall objective of discovering the next million-plus ounces of high-grade inferred resources. In the western area, new parallel zones located south of the main mineralized zones were intercepted and we are currently compiling and interpreting the geological data. Additional drilling is required to better understand the structural geology at depth, however these new zones increase the overall potential of the down plunge extension, providing new high quality targets for follow up drilling.
Approximately 6,360 metres of a planned 22,000 metres for 2016 have been completed to date. Drilling in the third quarter was slower than planned as deeper targets were being tested. A seventh drill was mobilized in late September to help accelerate drilling over the balance of the year.
Recent highlights from exploration drilling include (Table 7):
- Hole MH2A-4: 5.66 g/t gold over 6.38 metres
- Hole MH3-7: 8.41 g/t gold over 5.60 metres
- Hole MH4-2: 5.14 g/t gold over 3.32 metres (new parallel Zone)
- Hole MH4-3A: 17.77 g/t gold over 4.81 metres (new parallel Zone)
- Hole MH5: 7.11 g/t gold over 2.23 metres (G1 Zone)
3.89 g/t gold over 2.54 metres (new parallel Zone) - Hole MH1-9A: 26.56 g/t gold over 0.82 metres (X Zone)
Deep Infill Drilling Program Highlights: (Figure 5 )
The objective of the deep infill drilling program is to define a potential inferred resource block that was identified through the Phase 1 program. The block is located in the eastern down plunge extension of the C Zone between the 1,000 and 1,500 metre levels.
Approximately 1,894 metres of a planned 5,000 metres for 2016 have been completed (50 metre drill spacing) to date. Infill drilling will continue in this area over the balance of the year utilizing one drill rig from surface. Infill drilling will transition to underground drilling once access to the 860 metre drift has been established.
Highlights from the first two holes have confirmed the mineralization within this targeted area as follows (Table 7):
- Hole MH2A-5A: 14.99 g/t gold over 2.29 metres
- Hole MH2A-6: 6.46 g/t gold over 4.39 metres
Phase 2 Regional Drilling Program
The Phase 2 regional drilling program is designed to continue to evaluate the potential extension of the mineralization below the Kremzar mine as well as other previously identified high-priority gold targets located elsewhere on the highly prospective 77 km2 Island Gold property. The Phase 2 regional drilling program is expected to begin in late 2016 or early 2017.
