(TheNewswire)
Vancouver – TheNewswire - August 7th, 2020 - JDF Explorations Inc, (CSE:JDF) (CNSX:JDF.CN) (the “Company” or “JDF“) is pleased to announce that it has signed an option agreement between JDF (the Optionor) and the owner (the Optionee) to purchase an undivided 100% interest in the Black Dog Lake Gold Property (the “Property”) in the James Bay region of Quebec, subject only to a 2% Net Smelter Royalty (“NSR”). The terms of the option agreement call for JDF to pay $195,000 (starting with $35,000 in five business days from signing) and 2.5 million shares over three years, as well as completing $750,000 in exploration over the same three year period. One percentage point of the 2% NSR is purchasable by JDF at any time for $1 million. JDF also commits to issue 1 million shares to the Optionee upon “…the declaration of a proven reserve supported by a technical 43/101 calculation report that the Optionee deems economically feasible to continue developing the Property.”
The Black Dog Lake Property comprises 19 contiguous mineral claims covering 1,003 hectares, located 150 km east of James Bay, Quebec. As reported on the Quebec government claims database GESTIM, the Black Dog Lake metallic gold showing was discovered in iron formation by surface sampling in 1988, and subsequently drilled by at least 5 holes, yielding several prospective gold mineralization intervals, including 15.2 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) over 0.6 m; 5.2 g/t Au over 11 m; and 4.32 g/t Au over 0.88 m. JDF plans to complete due diligence in order to confirm this reported mineralization on the surface and through drilling as part of the evaluation of the potential of the claims to host gold mineralization.
