The combined copper, gold and silver zones, including the section between them which averaged 0.57% Cu, 0.67 g/t Au and 1.79 g/t Ag, averaged the following:

Average:

375.60 m 397.60 m 22.00 m 4.33% Cu 3.69 g/t Au 19.62 g/t Ag

Hole BJ-19-18 also intersected the C-3 Zone, at a vertical depth of 450 metres (1,476 ft), 40 metres (131.2 ft) southeast and 110 metres (361 ft) below BJ-19-17.

Hole BJ-19-18 returned 7.70% Cu, 3.58 g/t Au and 33.25 g/t Ag over 9.2 metres (30.2 ft)from 496.5 metres to 505.7 metres.

Chibougamau Independent Mines Inc. and Globex Mining Enterprises Inc. are extremely pleased with the results of drilling to date on the C-3 Zone which has now been shown to extend to at least from surface to a vertical depth of 450 metres (1,476 ft) and is open in all directions on strike to the northwest and southeast and to depth. We are particularly pleased with the gold content which in individual assays reaches up to 37.37 g/t Au over 0.62 m (2.03 ft), 18.58 g/t Au over 1 m (3.28 ft) and 15.98 g/t Au over 1 m (3.28 ft) in hole BJ-19-17 and 13.30 g/t Au over 1.0 m (3.28 ft)  in hole BJ-19-18.   

Interestingly we analyzed for cobalt in the area of mineralization. In hole BJ-19-18 the cobalt content averaged 0.031% Co over 14 m (45.93 ft) including 0.033% Co over the 9.20 m (30.2 ft) of the mineralized zone. In hole BJ-19-17 the cobalt content over the two mineralized sections assayed 0.023% Co over 12.47m (40.9 ft) and 0.022% Co over 5.9m (19.36 ft). More work needs to be done regarding this potential byproduct.

As yet, the true width of the C-3 Zone intersections has not been determined but is thought to be from 55% to 65 % of the intersection widths.

Laboratory and Assay Methods

Chibougamau Independent Mines’ core sampling including the quality assurance/quality control program is performed internally by Chibougamau Independent Mines personnel under the immediate supervision of Chibougamau Independent Mines project geologist. The samples are prepared in the field, they are tagged and sealed in plastic bags and are delivered directly by Chibougamau Independent Mines personnel to Expert Laboratories Inc, located at 750-A, rue Saguenay, Rouyn-Noranda.  The laboratory conducts all aspects of the sample preparation including drying and crushing to a minus 10 mesh screen size and the processing of a 300 gram sub sample for pulverization to a nominal minus 200 mesh size with the remaining crushed reject material being retained for storage.  For gold assaying, a 29.16 gram sub-sample of the pulp (1 assay-ton) is taken, fused following the standard procedures u sed in a fire assay method. The gold content of all samples is determined using atomic Absorption Spectroscopy.  Samples containing greater than 3gpt gold are subjected to a re-assay whereby the gold content is determined using a gravimetric fire assay method. For base metal assaying (copper, zinc including silver and cobalt) a 0.5g sample is initially treated by aqua regia digestion with nitric and hydrochloric acid and subsequently analyzed by a spectrometer of atomic absorption finish.

Analytical accuracy and precision are monitored by the routine insertion of blanks, duplicates and reference accredited low/high grade standards at 20 sample intervals in Chibougamau Independent Mines’ sample stream. This is in addition to the routine blanks, duplicates (gold, silver, copper, zinc and cobalt) and accredited standards insertion by Expert Laboratories during the course of the assaying process.
