Cartier Resources Inc. (TSX-V: ECR, FSE: 6CA) (“Cartier or the Company”) announces the results of its ongoing drilling program (FIGURE 1) for the Chimo Mine Project (FIGURE 2). The project comprises the Chimo Mine and East Cadillac properties, the latter of which was acquired on April 7, 2022 and has not been explored by Cartier to date. Both properties are 100% owned by Cartier and are located 45 km east of the Val-d’Or mining camp.

The results were obtained in the VG Structure at a depth of 35 m and a distance of 275 m west of the VG Zone.

« The initial results from the current drilling program attest to the potential of a 15-kilometre segment of the Larder Lake–Cadillac faults corridor of the Chimo Mine Property, which contains resources*, deposits and numerous gold showings to be further explored » commented Philippe Cloutier, President and CEO.

Quality Assurance / Quality ControlFor each batch of samples sent to the laboratory, Cartier inserts 5% of the number of samples in the form of certified standards and another 5% in the form of blanks to ensure quality control. The samples are analyzed at the Techni-Lab (Actlabs) laboratory in Ste-Germaine-Boulé, Quebec, Canada. Samples weighing 3 to 5 kg are crushed by the laboratory to 90% passing 10 mesh (2.00 mm), then a 500 g fraction of each sample is pulverized to 90% passing 200 mesh (0.07 mm). The resulting 50 g pulps are analyzed by fire assay with an atomic absorption finish. Samples with results ≥ 1.0 g/t and < 10.0 g/t are re-assayed by fire assay with an atomic absorption finish. Results greater than or equal to 10.0 g/t Au are analyzed by fire assay with a gravimetric finish. For samples containing visible gold, a 500 g subsample of rock is analyzed by the metallic sieve method.

Qualified PersonsThe Company’s scientific and technical information in this news release was prepared and reviewed by Mr. Gaétan Lavallière, P.Geo., PhD, Vice-President, and Mr. Ronan Déroff, P.Geo., M.Sc., Senior Geologist, Project Manager and Geomatician, both qualified persons as defined in National Instrument 43-101.
