Jean Lake

Jean Lake is 9.7 km W of Matachewan and is road accessible. Prospective geology is covered by veneer of younger rocks in area hosting several gold occurrences. The Stairs Gold Mine is 9 km W of the property. It was in production from 1965-1966 and has a historical reserve (non-compliant) (1). The Laroma prospect is 5.5 km W of Jean Lake. It hosts visible gold in network of narrow quartz veins; chip sample returned 1.34 oz/t and 60 lb bulk sample assayed 0.76 oz/t; zone of intense carbonate alteration in center of property area(2); veins strike E-W(3). The Doon property, 2.5 km E, hosts E-NE well-developed steeply plunging lineations associated with mineralization in the area; till sampling returned an isolated high gold value of 23.6 g/t(4).

EMX has not performed sufficient work to verify the published assay data reported above, and these data cannot be verified as being compliant with NI43-101 standards. These historically reported data should not be relied upon until they can be confirmed, but EMX believes this information is considered reliable and relevant. 
*Nearby mines and deposits provide context for the project, but do not necessarily indicate similar size, styles or grade of mineralization within the project.
