JUNIOR MINING | Gowest Gold Signs Definitive Milling Agreement

TORONTO, Oct. 30, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Gowest Gold Ltd. (“Gowest” or the “Company”) (GWA.V) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive Custom Milling Agreement (“the Agreement”) with QMX Gold Corporation (“QMX”) pursuant to which QMX will process material from the Company’s Bradshaw Gold Deposit (“Bradshaw”) at its  Aurbel Mill (the “Mill”) located in Val d’Or, Quebec.

Pursuant to the Agreement, Gowest will be obligated to fund certain upgrade permits and capital expenditures necessary to use the Mill to process Bradshaw material as part of its bulk sample and pre-production program, followed by production at Bradshaw.  Assuming all necessary permits are received and upgrades are performed, the Agreement will have a four (4) year term with an option to extend. Gowest has already stockpiled over 28,000 tonnes of development material on surface in preparation for ore-sorting. (See Gowest news release dated April 16, 2018.) The Company intends to truck sorted mineralized material to the Mill for toll milling into a high-grade gold concentrate. Gowest will then ship the gold concentrate to the Humon Smelter, Shandong Province China (see Gowest news release dated February 14, 2018) for final processing and sale.

With the execution of the definitive agreement, QMX and Gowest will immediately form a Technical Committee made up of individuals from both parties that will oversee the application and receipt of necessary permits required by the Province of Quebec to process third party material and start up of the Mill.  At this time, it is expected that processing will begin mid-2019.  In conjunction with preparing the Mill for start up, the Company intends to crush and sort the material on surface at the Bradshaw site, continue the infill drill program and continue preparations for underground mining.  Gowest will provide updates on its progress and timing as information becomes available.

Gowest President & CEO, Greg Romain said, “We are very pleased to have reached this agreement with QMX, which represents a vital milestone in our development of Bradshaw and in our goal of advancing it into a commercial gold mine.”  Mr. Romain added, “The termination of the previously executed agreement for toll milling prevented the Company from moving the project into the next phase of mining and financing. Now that we have closed the loop, we will be able to finalize discussions on completing the necessary funding of the project.”

JUNIOR MINING | GeoChemistry results from Cabin Lake Gold Project are in!

Vancouver, British Columbia – (October 29, 2018) – Rover Metals Corp. (TSXV: ROVR) (“Rover Metals” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce results of its soil geochemical survey on its 100% owned Cabin Lake Gold Project, NT, Canada.
Rover Metals’ Fall 2018 Exploration Program at its Cabin Lake Gold Project has focused on revisiting the historic gold zone occurrences over the gold-rich iron formation to better understand the system, geology, structure and mineralization. The Fall 2018 Exploration Program has combined a detailed Total Magnetic Field UAS Survey with a Soil Geochemistry Survey. The second phase of the Cabin Lake Gold Project exploration program will consist of diamond drilling scheduled for the upcoming winter months.
The results from the Geochemical Survey, even at the ultra-trace level, reveal strong coincident gold anomalies around and on known historic gold mineralization areas, particularly over the Camp and Andrew South Zones. The survey also shows a new additional well-defined anomalous zone in the south-east zone of the property.
The interpretation of the results from field reconnaissance, the magnetic survey and the preliminary soil sampling analysis supports the hypothesis of a gold bearing system in the form of a shear corridor intersecting a series of folded iron formations, with gold preferentially being deposited within sulphidized sections of the iron formations in such zones. Rover Metals’ interpretation supported by the new gold in-soil anomalies, also supports the hypothesis that there is a much more extensive gold system than initially discovered by Aber Resources’ historic exploration drilling in the late 1980’s which only focused on one folded section of the Bugow Iron Formation. Rover Metals has identified repetitive targets within these northeast-southeast shear corridors. The Company believes the Cabin Lake system is similar in kind and style to the historic Lupin Gold Mine in Nunavut, Canada, and to some extent to the Musselwhite Gold Mine in Ontario, Canada.
Keith Minty, President of Rover Metals, states “We just tested our initial thesis on the shear zones and Iron Formation intersections within the Cabin Lake property and the correlations exceed our expectations in defining a new gold anomaly in a previously untested area. We are continuing to analyse the data from Fall 2018 Exploration Program. In the future, we plan to use the same geochemistry testing protocols on the remaining areas of the Cabin Lake Group Project (i.e. inclusive of the Camp Lake and Slemon Lake claims) to identify and further expand the known gold anomalies.”
About the Geochemistry Survey
The program consisted of 485 samples covering an area of approximately 1,150 meters x 600 meters (69 hectares) following lines north-south oriented and spaced 50 meters between each other. Sample stations were placed every 25 meters within the lines. Samples were taken using auger tools below the topsoil wherever possible. Even though the region is known to be locally covered with glacial till, the surveyed area was selected by its outcrop exposures on known mineralized zones for comparison and reference over other possible zones within the property boundaries.
The Geochemistry Survey also reveal coincident anomalies of pathfinder elements to this style of gold mineralization such as Arsenic, Sulphur (%) and Copper on top of the magnetic anomalies following the Bugow Iron formation.
Aurora Geosciences Ltd. from Yellowknife, NT, Canada, was commissioned to perform the geophysical and geochemical work. Soil samples were collected under the direct supervision of Raul Sanabria, P.Geo,, VP of Exploration at Rover Metals and Company project QP, following a tight chain of custody from the collection site to ALS preparation facility in Yellowknife, NT. Assays were performed at ALS Laboratories in Vancouver, British Columbia. Certified blank and standard samples were inserted at regular batch intervals for accuracy and verification.
Technical information in this news release has been approved by Raul Sanabria, M.Sc., P.Geo., VP of Exploration at Rover Metals Corp. and a Qualified Person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101.

RICK RULE | Tremendous Discoveries In “One of the Last Great Exploration Frontiers”

By Tekoa Da Silva
I had the chance to sit down once again with Rick Rule, Chairman of Sprott U.S. Holdings. It was a fascinating discussion, as Rule discussed resource speculation in Africa and his experience participating in world-class deposit discoveries made over the last few decades.

“As a place to [discover] world-class deposits, I would suggest to you that Africa and Central Asia are the last great frontiers [for resource exploration]” explained Rule. “Political and social challenges have kept them from being as thoroughly explored as Western nations.”
“The part of resource speculation that interests me is exploration,” Rule continued. “And the subset of explorers that interests me most are the prospect generators — people who use their investment and commercial acumen (frankly their courage), to explore virgin or semi-virgin terrain, and then bring in joint venture partners to drill. Unfortunately, there aren’t very many prospect generators in Africa, so the universe that I have to explore is fairly small.”
Rule further explained that combining high-quality exploration efforts with well-endowed and underexplored geological terrains, makes truly historic discoveries possible.
“I’ve been fortunate in my life to participate in a few [world class African resource discoveries],” said Rule. “The Africa Oil Corp. discovery of a billion barrels of oil in Northern Kenya, [was] previously an [unexplored] place. Paladin [Energy]’s uranium discoveries in Namibia and Malawi — which ran the stock from 10 cents to 10 dollars — [is] a very fond memory as you might imagine. [Other examples include,] Tenke Mining’s tremendous [copper] success in the Congo [and] Moto Gold’s 10 million oz. gold success at Kibali.”
“[So] my outlook for Africa is very bright, but that isn’t to suggest there aren’t great challenges,” he warned.
One of the perceived challenges of investing in Africa is political risk. Rule indicated that political risk represents “Actions taken by government [that] deprive me of legitimately generated wealth. [But] by that standard, of course, the jurisdiction that I live in, California, is probably one of the riskiest jurisdictions in the world. It’s just that we look at risk differently … risks that look like us, risks that we understand, risks that we participate in creating are regarded as somehow less venal. People will hate to hear this, but I love to say it — money stolen by white people, [speaking] English, according to the rule of law, is just as gone as money that’s stolen more efficiently by traditional methods.”
While Western resource markets may present greater political risk, “Western institutional investors (primarily generalists) have [ironically] painted Africa as a do-not-go[-to] place,” Rule added.
“[But] I think the opportunities are larger than the risks, if you are willing to take those risks,” Rule concluded. “[And] what appeals to me are the exploration companies … the companies that can take exploration concepts (and social risk) … and discover very large deposits.”

Forward-Looking Statement
This report contains forward-looking statements which reflect the current expectations of management regarding future growth, results of operations, performance and business prospects and opportunities. Wherever possible, words such as “may”, “would”, “could”, “will”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “plan”, “expect”, “intend”, “estimate”, and similar expressions have been used to identify these forward-looking statements. These statements reflect management’s current beliefs with respect to future events and are based on information currently available to management. Forward-looking statements involve significant known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Many factors could cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, actual results, performance or achievements could vary materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this document. These factors should be considered carefully and undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements. Although the forward-looking statements contained in this document are based upon what management currently believes to be reasonable assumptions, there is no assurance that actual results, performance or achievements will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this presentation and Sprott does not assume any obligation to update or revise.
Views expressed regarding a particular company, security, industry or market sector should not be considered an indication of trading intent of any fund or account managed by Sprott. Any reference to a particular company is for illustrative purposes only and should not to be considered as investment advice or a recommendation to buy or sell nor should it be considered as an indication of how the portfolio of any fund or account managed by Sprott will be invested.
Past performance does not guarantee future results. The views and opinions expressed herein are those of the author’s as of the date of this commentary, and are subject to change without notice. This information is for information purposes only and is not intended to be an offer or solicitation for the sale of any financial product or service or a recommendation or determination by Sprott Global Resource Investments Ltd. that any investment strategy is suitable for a specific investor. Investors should seek financial advice regarding the suitability of any investment strategy based on the objectives of the investor, financial situation, investment horizon, and their particular needs.

The products discussed herein are not insured by the FDIC or any other governmental agency, are subject to risks, including a possible loss of the principal amount invested.
Generally, natural resources investments are more volatile on a daily basis and have higher headline risk than other sectors as they tend to be more sensitive to economic data, political and regulatory events as well as underlying commodity prices. Natural resource investments are influenced by the price of underlying commodities like oil, gas, metals, coal, etc.; several of which trade on various exchanges and have price fluctuations based on short-term dynamics partly driven by demand/supply and also by investment flows. Natural resource investments tend to react more sensitively to global events and economic data than other sectors, whether it is a natural disaster like an earthquake, political upheaval in the Middle East or release of employment data in the U.S. Low priced securities can be very risky and may result in the loss of part or all of your investment.  Because of significant volatility,  large dealer spreads and very limited market liquidity, typically you will  not be able to sell a low priced security immediately back to the dealer at the same price it sold the stock to you. In some cases, the stock may fall quickly in value. Investing in foreign markets may entail greater risks than those normally associated with domestic markets, such as political, currency, economic and market risks. You should carefully consider whether trading in low priced and international securities is suitable for you in light of your circumstances and financial resources. Past performance is no guarantee of future returns. Sprott Global, entities that it controls, family, friends, employees, associates, and others may hold positions in the securities it recommends to clients, and may sell the same at any time.

JUNIOR MINING | Novo Announces Bulk Sample Results from Comet Well
NOVO ANNOUNCES BULK SAMPLE RESULTS FROM COMET WELL
VANCOUVER, BC, October 26, 2018 – Novo Resources Corp. (“Novo” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: NVO; OTCQX: NSRPF) is pleased to announce bulk sample results from its Comet Well joint venture (80% Novo; 20% Smith/Gardner Mining), part of Novo’s greater Karratha gold project, Western Australia.
First round bulk sample results confirm the potential of the basal conglomerates at Karratha and support Novo’s view of significant prospectivity across its Comet Well/Purdy’s Reward tenements and, more broadly, the prospectivity of Novo’s 12,000 square kilometerland-holdings across the Pilbara.
Highlights:

  • Bulk samples reported in this news release come from two gold-bearing conglomerate units at Comet Well, the Upper Cannonball Conglomerate (“UCC”) and Lower Cannonball Conglomerate (“LCC”) as well as surrounding rock strata. Figure 1 displays a location map of bulk sample sites. Figure 2 illustrates the position of each bulk sample with respect to stratigraphy. Table 1 (nearby) lists bulk sample data including weight, thickness, gold grade, and fractions of gold occurring in each processing stream.
  • Bulk samples were collected from 2 x 2 meter pits scattered along 1.2 km strike from Cannonball Gully in the southwest to the Purdy’s Reward tenement boundary in the northeast (Purdy’s Reward is a joint venture on conglomerate/paleoplacer gold; 50% Novo and 50% Artemis Resources Ltd.). Thicknesses of samples range from approximately 0.35 to 1.20 meters.
  • The bounds of gold-bearing conglomerates are not readily identifiable by eye, therefore bulk sampling encompassed sections of conglomerate above and below each respective gold-bearing unit in order to better constrain their limits.
  • Processing of each sample encompasses coarse crushing and screening then passing material through a metal detector to collect any nuggets. Once detected, the sample is finely crushed, screened and further processed through a gravity concentrator. Concentrates and tails are analyzed, with the final grade based upon the gold recovered from each of the three sample streams (see Figure 3 below).
  • At Cannonball Gully, Novo has identified what it believes are significant basin-bounding faults that may have been active during sedimentation and controlled LCC deposition. Diamond drilling indicates the LCC continues into the basin and may open up and become more laterally extensive, particularly to the east. Therefore, Novo believes that exposures of LCC at Cannonball Gully form a small outcropping apex of this important unit. Bulk samples from the mineralized core of the LCC include KX157 (7.14 tonnes) grading 10.40 grams per tonne gold and KX158 (6.85 tonnes) grading 1.51 grams per tonne gold (samples previously reported in the Company’s news release dated May 31, 2018). Collectively, these two samples represent a 1.4 m high vertical profile through the LCC with a weighted average grade of 6.06 grams per tonne gold. Nearby samples KX160 (7.17 tonnes) grading 1.99 grams per tonne gold and KX161 (13.5 tonnes) grading 2.62 grams per tonne gold collectively represent a 1.8 m high vertical profilethrough the LCC with a weighted average grade of 2.40 grams per tonne gold. Gold nuggets recovered from bulk samples of LCC are typically flat, up to 10 mm across, weigh a gram or less and occur within sandy matrix between boulders. Boulder clasts in the LCC range in size up to 1.5 meter diameter and are tightly packed.
  • Bulk samples from the mineralized core of the UCC include KX223 (3.78 tonnes) grading 4.53 grams per tonne gold, KX227 (3.40 tonnes) grading 3.06 grams per tonne gold, KX198 (6.44 tonnes) grading 2.26 grams per tonne gold, KX224 (4.11 tonnes) grading 1.29 grams per tonne gold and KX171 (4.96 tonnes) grading 1.22 grams per tonne gold. Gold nuggets recovered from bulk samples of UCC are similar in shape to those of the LCC but are typically larger, up to 18 mm across and weighing up to approximately 6 grams. Such size nuggets are typical of mineralized conglomerate at nearby Purdy’s Reward, therefore Novo believes the UCC at Comet Well may be geologically related to the Purdy’s Reward conglomerate. Novo has currently explored a combined length of 3.6 kilometers of UCC and Purdy’s Reward conglomerate. This zone remains open at both ends and into the basin. Novo collected circa 300 kilogram bulk samples from trenches at Purdy’s Reward late last year. Results from these samples were discussed in Novo’s news release dated February 14, 2018 and are restated in Figure 2 of this news release.
  • Variability of grade in conglomerate bulk samples is largely a function of the number of nuggets in each sample. Novo also believes the proportion of boulders to matrix in each respective sample significantly impacts variability. Given the nuggety nature of gold mineralization at Karratha, such variability is expected.
  • At Karratha, gold almost universally occurs as nuggets with a thin, 2-5 mm, halo of fine-grained gold in the matrix of conglomerates (see Figure 4 below). In spite of this, the proportion of gold occurring as nuggets varies widely from bulk sample to bulk sample. Novo believesthis may reflect breakdown of nuggets to finer gold particles during processing of some samples. Novo does not see evidence of a significant component of fine-grained, disseminated gold in Comet Well conglomerates.
The multi-tonne bulk samples presented in this news release serve to provide an indicative grade of the two gold-bearing conglomerates at Comet Well. Novo takes the view that bulk sampling on the scale of 10,000’s tonnes is required to more fully ascertain the grade, distribution, and continuity of these units and to determine the commercial viability of whether a potential mining operation could proceed. Such process is well-known in the diamond industry where trial excavation of very large samples is required to evaluate economics of deposits prior to mining.

Novo plans to use this bulk sample data along with geologic data collected from recently completed diamond drill cores as a basis for a mineralization report, a critical component needed to convert an exploration license to a mining lease.
Bulk Sample Processing   
Novo staff collected bulk samples discussed in this news release. Bulk samples were submitted to SGS Minerals in Perth, Australia where they were treated in a test plant detailed in Novo’s news release dated February 6 and May 31, 2018. Because gold mineralization at Comet Well is extremely coarse, the entire sample is coarsely crushed and screened and passed through a metal detector to collect any nuggets. Once detected, the sample is finely crushed, screened and further processed through a gravity concentrator. Concentrates and tails are analyzed, with the final grade based upon the gold recovered from each of the three sample streams (see Figure 3 below). Samples are scrutineered by independent consultants from RSC Mining and Mineral Exploration, Perth, whilst each sample is collected and received into the laboratory, maintaining complete integrity over the chain of custody. All assay certificates and head grade calculations were provided by SGS as secured documents, with the calculations and head grades checked by Novo internal resources and verified by Dr. Simon Dominy. There were no limitations to the verification process and all relevant data was verified.
Dr. Quinton Hennigh, P. GEO., the Company’s, President and Chairman and a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has approved the geological and content of this news release. Dr. Simon Dominy, FAusIMM (CP), a consultant geometallurgist to the Company, a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has approved the processing and sample grade content of this news release.

JUNIOR MINING | New Discovery Hole – 95.7 metres of 1.47 g/t gold equivalent at the Santana Project, Sonora, Mexico

TORONTO and VANCOUVER , Oct. 25, 2018 /CNW/ – Minera Alamos Inc. (the “Company” or “Minera Alamos”) (TSX VENTURE:MAI) is pleased to report the discovery of a new broad zone of gold/silver mineralization in its Phase 1 drill program at the Santana gold project, Sonora, Mexico . The discovery drill hole into the new Divisadero zone, was drilled approximately 200m north of the known mineralization limits at the Nicho Main and Nicho Norte zones and returned a wide intercept of disseminated gold, silver and copper mineralization in a previously underexplored part of the Santana Property. The hole is the first drilled deep enough to intersect this new style of polymetallic mineralization that is associated with an andesite porphyry unit related to disseminated pyrite and intrusive breccias.  Based on surface exposures and known geology the mineralized system appears to be open to expansion in all directions.

Drilling Highlights:

  • Hole S18-121 – 95.7 m of 0.85 g/t Au, 9.8 g/t Ag and 0.33% Cu – (1.47 g/t AuEQ)
    from 32 m
    Including 70.0 m of 1.1 g/t Au, 11.8 g/t Ag and 0.56% Cu – (1.88 g/t AuEQ) beginning at 55 m down hole.

“This new discovery hole is an extremely exciting development for the Company” stated Darren Koningen , CEO of Minera Alamos . “One of the driving factors behind the merger between Minera Alamos and Corex earlier this year was the significant untapped potential we believed we could unlock once the two Companies’ contiguous land packages were combined.  As our knowledge base grows and we continue to better understand the regional geology we should continue to find additional mineralization. The discovery of the Divisadero area provides further evidence that the mineralizing events that occurred in the Nicho area are present at shallow depths elsewhere on our extensive property holdings.”

Hole S18-121 (70-degree inclination) was the Company’s first effort to assess the potential extensions of known mineralization on Corex’s Santana claim group on to the Minera Alamos Los Verdes claim group directly to the north.  Rather than exhibiting Nicho style mineralization, S18-121 returned a considerable interval of more porphyry style mineralization with broad, rather evenly distributed gold, silver and copper disseminated throughout much of the hole starting from 32 metres down the hole (see Table 1).

The Company is currently evaluating the significance of this new discovery and its relationship with the mineralized breccia systems that form the predominantly gold rich mineralization at Nicho Norte and Nicho to the southwest. Preliminary surface mapping immediately adjacent to the intercept shows that the mineralized porphyritic unit extends in all directions and appears to be distinct from the Nicho Main and Norte zones to the south.  Additional holes are planned to further test the discovery as part of Phase 2 drilling at Santana.

The Phase 1 drilling program has now concluded with the completion of ten holes totalling approximately 1500 m .  The remaining holes yet to be reported include further testing of the southwest extensions of the Nicho deposit (see Figure 1). Planning of the Phase 2 drill program will begin once the remaining drilling results have been received and evaluated.

Assay results are pending from the remaining three holes; the results, as well as additional geological interpretations, will be released as they are received over the coming weeks. All diamond drill samples were collected by Minera Alamos personnel including the Company’s exploration geologists.  Drill core samples were cut in half and divided into 1- 2 m intervals.  One half of the sample was bagged for analysis and the remaining half was logged by Minera Alamos personnel and stored for future reference.  Blanks, duplicates, and standards were randomly inserted with the samples sent for analysis as part of the normal QA/QC procedures.

All samples were prepared and analyzed for gold using fire assaying with AA/gravimetric finish.  All samples were sent for sample preparation at the ALS-Chemex facility in Hermosillo, Mexico .

Despite being relatively new and underexplored, this zinc camp is already the most metal-endowed region in Ireland , outside Boliden’s Navan zinc deposit” stated Bart Jaworski , CEO. “Mineralization discovered to date in this area includes Glencore’s Pallas Green deposit1, our neighbouring Stonepark deposit2, our Carrickittle and Oola occurrences3, as well as, our five regional prospects identified by the previous operator. Our Gortdrum4 prospect – an open-pit copper mine from the 1960s – is also in the area and postulated as a feeder system for zinc mineralization in the district.”

“The above deposits and occurrences are located in a roughly concentric pattern around the Limerick Volcanic Complex. Recent academic work suggests these volcanics may play a significant role in the emplacement of zinc mineralization. One of the exciting ideas being developed by Group Eleven as part of the ‘Big Think’ is that known mineralization represents merely the outer edges of the system – with its heart located towards the centre of the volcanics. With that in mind, it will be very interesting to combine geological information from this preliminary drilling with results from the ongoing Tellus airborne survey to produce high-priority drill targets for next year’s ‘Big Drill’ program.”

What is ‘Big Think’? Group Eleven’s ‘Big Think’ exploration is an open-minded and methodical search for tier-one zinc deposits in the Irish Zinc District through comprehensive re-evaluation of over 70 years of exploration data, combined with cutting edge geophysical and geochemical techniques. The Company believes no other zinc-focused junior or major company is currently exploring on such a broad and deep scale in Ireland . Please see our ‘Q&A‘ discussion on the ‘Big Think’ for further information. For more information on the Tellus survey, see news release dated September 27 th, 2018.
