ROUYN-NORANDA, Quebec, July 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GLOBEX MINING ENTERPRISES INC. (GMX – Toronto Stock Exchange, G1MN – Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Berlin, Munich, Tradegate, Lang & Schwarz, LS Exchange, TTMzero, Düsseldorf and Quotrix Düsseldorf Stock Exchanges and GLBXF – OTCQX International in the US) is pleased to provide a brief update regarding exploration by Emperor Metals Inc. (“Emperor”) currently underway on the Duquesne West Gold Property under option from Duparquet Assets Ltd. which is owned 50% by Globex and 50% by Géoconseils Jack Stoch Ltée.
Emperor has reported in today’s press release that they have completed 2,500 metres of the 8,000 metre drill program. The first 2,500 metres was focused on the western conceptual open-pit model discussed in previous Emperor press releases.
The remaining 5,500 metres will now focus on the NIP Gold Zone near the eastern boundary of the property and the area between the conceptual open-pit model and the NIP Zone (see Figure 1 below) with the focus of joining the two.
An IP survey has outlined priority target areas in the NIP Zone which will be tested (see Figure 2 below).
The NIP Zone includes multiple high-grade gold intercepts such as those shown in Table 1 below.
