Sirios intersects up to 79.7 g/t Au over 1.4 m in the two first drill holes of Fall 2024 at Cheechoo
16 Dezembro 2024 - 11:00AM
Sirios Resources Inc. (TSX-V: SOI; OTCQB: SIREF) (“Sirios” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce the results from the two first
drill holes of the Phase 1 of its Fall-Winter 2024-25 Drilling
Program on the Cheechoo gold project in Eeyou Istchee James Bay,
Québec.
The two drill holes intercepted gold mineralization exactly at
the locations anticipated by Sirios' geological team. These results
help validate the new interpretation of the Cheechoo deposit, which
reinforces the potential for high-grade zones, paving the way for
possible development combining open-pit and underground
mining.

Phase 1 of the Fall-Winter 2024-25 Drilling
Sirios has completed drilling of the 4 holes constituting phase
1 of the Fall-Winter 2024-25 program for a total of 1,882 meters.
Core samples from holes #319 and 320 are currently being
analyzed.
Strategic Objectives
The primary objectives of this drill program are to:
- Gather data to support an
upcoming Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE)
update;
- Test high-priority
targets identified during the comprehensive data review
conducted by Sirios during the summer of 2024.
Cheechoo’s High-Grade Zones
The Cheechoo gold deposit is hosted in a tonalite intrusion
characterized by multiple gold-enriched zones
encased in a lower-grade halo. In addition to the
Eclipse zone. numerous high-grade intervals
throughout the deposit suggest the occurrence of additional
high-grade zones. These zones may be found both within and beyond
the boundaries of the 2022 Mineral Resource Estimate
(MRE) conceptual pit.
About the Cheechoo Property
Located less than 15 km from Newmont's Éléonore
gold mine in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay territory of Québec. the
Cheechoo property. 100% owned by Sirios. contains an
untapped gold deposit with excellent expansion and
development potential.
The most recent mineral resource estimate (MRE)
reported. for an open-pit model. using a USD 1.650 gold price:
- Indicated
resources: 1.4 million ounces at an average grade
of 0.94 g/t Au;
- Inferred
resources: 500.000 ounces at an average grade of
0.73 g/t Au.Source: BBA. Mineral Resource Estimate
Update for the Cheechoo Project. 23/12/2022
Underground mining scenarios have not
been evaluated in the 2022 MRE.
