VANCOUVER, May 18, 2018 /CNW/ - Intact Gold Corp. (TSX-V: ITG) (FSE: 1A5) (ITTGF:US) (the "Company" or "Intact Gold"), is pleased to announce the completion of a UAVMAG™ geophysical survey over the Ortona Gold Project in western Quebec.
A crew from Pioneer Aerial Surveys carried out the work over the course of a week, with the aid of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The geophysical survey was conducted to test for magnetic anomalies within the project, associated with contrasts in lithology and/or structures. The survey highlighted several areas of interest requiring follow up work.
The survey results will provide insight into structural features which are prospective for shear zone hosted mineralization known in the area. Intact Gold is currently utilizing the UAVMAG™ survey to design their exploration plan going forward.
The Ortona block lies less than 1km North West of the historic Belleterre mine. The Belleterre Mine, which is not part of the Belleterre property and never has been, produced 2,177,400 t @ 10.73 g/t Au and 1.37 g/t Ag from 1936 – 1959.
