Enforcer Gold discovers high-grade mineralization in new vein exposure at the Montalembert Gold Project
TSX-V: VEIN | FSE: N071
TORONTO, July 11, 2017 /CNW/ - Enforcer Gold Corp ("Enforcer" or the "Company") (TSX-V: VEIN; FSE: N071) is pleased to provide an update of its exploration activities at the Montalembert Gold Project, including the discovery of high-grade gold mineralization in a new exposure along the No. 2 Vein.
President & CEO, Steve Roebuck, comments:
"We are pleased to report on the early success of Enforcer's first field program at Montalembert, including the discovery of an impressive occurrence of visible gold within new exposure 51 m north along the No. 2 vein extension. In addition, preliminary IP results from surveying to the north of the Galena and No. 2 veins indicate that both structures continue for a considerable distance in this direction. The presence of other anomalies outside of the known mineralized areas also highlight the potential for new discoveries. We are very encouraged by these early results and are pushing diligently to advance these targets to the drilling stage. It's very early days yet at Montalembert, the Company's large-diameter core drilling program on the Galena and No. 2 veins began on July 5, 2017."

Enforcer commenced its initial induced polarization ("IP") geophysical survey in early June. A test survey was conducted across the exposed Galena and No. 2 veins to develop a template for testing potential strike extensions of the veins as well as other target areas property wide. Preliminary results indicate that both zones continue to the north and IP chargeability anomalies have also been detected outside of the known mineralized zones. The southern part of the grid is yet to be surveyed. The current survey will cover an ~1.5 x 1.5 km area and is ~70% complete.
Enforcer personnel are ground truthing the IP anomalies by exposing and channel sampling outcrops, with current priority given to Galena and No. 2 vein extensions. Shearing, quartz veining and quartz-feldspar porphyry have now been exposed for an additional 60 m and 75 m north along the Galena and No. 2 veins, respectively. On the No. 2 vein extension, an impressive 15 cm wide occurrence of visible gold occurs within a 1.4 m wide quartz vein hosted within a 3.2 m wide shear zone. The occurrence lies ~51 m north of the 2016 limit of the No. 2 vein exposure. Trenching to further expose the mineralized structures continues and systematic channel sampling is underway.
