Highlights:

  • New multiple high-grade gold intercepts within and surrounding the Monique conceptual pit. Monique Gold system is identified over 2,500 metres of length, 1,000 metres of width and 700 metres of depth.

  • Expansion drilling within and under the Monique conceptual pit intersected significant intervals of mineralization grading up to 14.9 g/t Au over 6.8 metres (Cut) or 30.3 g/t Au over 6.8 metres (Uncut), including 255 g/t Au over 0.8 metre; 9.9 g/t Au over 12.0 metres, including 99.2 g/t Au over 1.0 metre and 2.7 g/t Au over 23.7 metres.

  • Infill drilling continues to confirm gold zones inside and just under the conceptual pit, yielding up to 4.8 g/t Au over 17.1 metres, including 44.7 g/t Au over 1.0 metre and 1.0 g/t Au over 53.0 metres.

  • A 10,000-metre drill program and prospecting activities testing new exploration targets is ongoing at Novador.

TORONTO, July 30, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PROBE GOLD INC. (TSX: PRB) (OTCQB: PROBF) (“Probe” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide the last set of results from the Monique resource drill program completed this April on its 100%-owned Novador property (the “Property”) near Val-d’Or, Quebec. The results from twenty-eight (25) drill holes, totaling 15,025 metres, revealed significant high-grade mineralized intersections under and inside the modeled Monique gold zones from surface to a depth of 700 metres (refer to Figure 1 and the table of selected drill results below). The new results show impressive gold grades and thicknesses, and continue to demonstrate strong continuity and growth of gold mineralization at the Monique deposit. Two drills are active this summer at Novador, with over 6,000 meters of the planned 10,000 meters of exploration drilling already completed. The exploration program, designed to test new areas peripheral to the Courvan and the Pascalis Trends, should be completed in September.

David Palmer, President and CEO of Probe, states: “Today’s results from our 2024 Monique expansion program continue to build on previous successes, with most intersections meeting or exceeding the current resource grade. For the remainder of the year, our key objectives include updating the resource estimate, expected in the Fall, and the 2024 drilling programs, which will focus on both expansion and new discoveries. Our regional exploration program at Val-d’Or is now underway, including drilling program planned on the recently acquired Val-d’Or east properties, all of which are within trucking distance of the conceptual mill. Follow-up resource expansion drilling is planned for the fall season, along with geophysics and drilling of new targets generated from our regional work.”
