Update on Sirios activity on Cheechoo gold property, The Canadian Business Journal

Montreal, September 21, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The management of Sirios Resources Inc. (TSX-V: SOI) We are pleased to announce an update on the work recently completed on Cheechoo’s Gold property.

Mechanical stripping and channel sampling

Following an exploration program that was completed earlier this summer, three outcrops (Fig. 1) were mechanically stripped and channel-sampled in the region of the metadediment east of the notional pit of the Chishu gold deposit. I was.sum of 218 samples A 216-meter flume sent it to the ALS laboratory in Val d’Or for gold analysis.

In this region, a metadediment favorable to gold mineralization originates from the tonalite that hosts the Cheechoo gold deposit. over 500 meters to the east.

Update Mineral Resource Estimates

Mineral resource estimate updates will continue as planned. One of the main purposes of this update is to define for the first time. Showed Cheechoo gold deposit resourcesThis conversion from inferred resources to indicated resources increases the robustness of subsequent preliminary economic studies (PEA).

1kg reanalysis program

After completion of the reanalysis program, a total of 2,626 1 kg subsamples were reanalyzed at Actlabs and AGAT laboratories. Re-analysis results show an overall increase of approximately 4% for gold grade compared to assays previously performed on 50 g aliquots of samples (Table 1). These 1 kg samples are believed to be more representative of gold mineralization. Therefore, in addition to demonstrating an increase in average gold grades, this multiple reanalysis adds confidence in the management of gold grades at the Cheechoo deposit.

Samples re-analyzed as part of this program will be incorporated into ongoing Mineral Resource updates.

Comparison of all 50 g assays and 1 kg re-assays
50g (g/t Au) 1kg (g/t Au) 1kg/50g
average 0.52 0.54 + 4%
Median 0.38 0.39 +3%
Average difference of 1kg/50g1 + 12%
number of samples 2,626

Assay quality control

In the re-assay program, a 1 kg aliquot of failed material was taken from the previous core sample and assayed in the AGAT lab using the “LeachWELL™” method and in the Actlabs lab using the “metal sieve” method .

Blanks and certified reference materials were integrated into the sampling sequence following a rigorous QA/QC program. Special certified reference materials (Assay Pills) were used to ensure proper quality control of the assay for 1 kg of material.
