LAVAL, CANADA--(Marketwired - July 12, 2017) - Typhoon Exploration Inc. (TSX VENTURE:TYP) has finalized his compilation and interpretation works on the Monexco property (100% interest), located about 30 kilometres North-East from the town of Chibougamau, inside the North Plan Territory.
The Monexco property is composed of 42 claims corresponding to an area of 2,324 hectares located on the France Corridor, a regional gold target previously publicized by the "Minist??re de l'??nergie et des Ressources Naturelle" of Qu?(C)bec in 2003 (source: DV-2003-08).
The Company plans to release information from an exploration and sampling program done in the course of 2016. The evaluation of results was done together with a compilation of recent and historical works, and with a review of the geological context of the property.
2016 Exploration Program Update
Comparison with the Croteau East Project of Northern Superior Resources
(11.6 million tonnes at 1.7 g/t for 640,000oz) *
Northern Superior Resources and Chalice Gold Mines Ltd. found the Croteau East deposit located 20 kilometres West of the Monexco project, along the France River Corridor (see sketch appended).
The deposit hosts 640,000 ounces of gold from 11.6 million tonnes at a grade of 1.7 grams of gold per tonne. The resources calculation is based on 1 g/t cutoff grade **(see press release of January 14th, 2016). The Croteau East was found and defined by drilling between 2012 and 2015 down to a vertical depth of 300 metres. The mineralization system is identified along a kilometric strike length, and can be considered open at depth.
There are several geological similarities among the Croteau East deposit and Monexco gold showings. Exploration success obtained by Northern Superior using an aggressive drilling approach is a great source of inspiration for Typhoon for eventually following the same path on the Monexco property.
