Monarques Resources Discovers Gold Zone Near Historic Cadillac-Larder Lake Break

The historic  Cadillac-Larder Lake Break reveals more gold 108 years after initial discoveries in the area helped open up mining in Northeastern Ontario and Northwestern Quebec.

 Monarques Resources Inc. announced their initial results of the latest drilling on the Simkar gold property located in the heart of the Val-d'Or mining camp, just north of the historic Cadillac-Larder Lake Break, in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt.   Monarques’ results indicate 66 Metre Gold Zone on the Simkar Property

 "Monarques is very pleased to confirm that the prospect for increasing the potential of the Simkar project remains positive," said Jean-Marc Lacoste, President and CEO of Monarques. "The discovery of what we believe to be a new, near-surface gold zone in the southern part of the property provides us with a strong incentive to continue working on this project. We are very much looking forward to receiving the final analytical results from this latest program."

 Monarques acquired a 50% interest under an agreement signed with Eloro Resources Ltd. on September 23, 2013.  The 2013 drilling program consisted of 19 holes, totalling 8,055 metres of drilling. The campaign was primarily aimed at extending the gold-mineralized horizons previously identified as the "A", "B", "C", "D", and “East" and "South" zones, with the goal of confirming their projected horizontal and vertical extensions. A secondary goal was to develop and test new models of these same structures.

 Holes SK13-01, SK13-02 and SK13-04 intersected 38.35 m, 66.00 m and 28.20 m of gold mineralization, respectively, at grades up to 3.86g/t Au. Whereas the mineralized interval in Hole SK13-02 appear to be associated with Zone D, holes SK13-01 and SK13-04 have mineralized intervals that are closer to surface and south of Zone D. This indicates an as-yet untested potential on Zone D and southward for wide, low-grade horizons, which, given the current market conditions, are considered favorable in terms of mining development scenarios.

 The 2013 exploration program was managed by MRB & Associates ("MRB") of Val-d'Or, QC who designed the drilling campaign, supervised the program and logged and sampled the core on Monarques' behalf. Sampling consisted of sawing each core in two equal halves along its main axis and shipping one of the halves to Techni-Lab S.G.B. Abitibi Inc. in Val-d'Or for assays. The samples were crushed, pulverized and assayed by fire assay with atomic absorption finish. Results exceeding 5.0 g/t were re-assayed using the gravity method. MRB established a full QA/QC protocol, including the insertion of standards, blanks and duplicates.
