O3 Mining Intersects 9.3 g/t Au Over 6.0 m, Including 25.7 g/t Au Over 1.9 m at Epsilon

TORONTO, Dec. 12, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- O3 Mining Inc. (TSX.V: OIII) ("O3 Mining" or the "Corporation") is pleased to provide new results from the ongoing drilling program on the Alpha property, located 5 kilometres (km) southeast of Val D’Or, Quebec. The area includes the claims under option from Golden Valley Mines Ltd. (Centremaque), of which O3 Mining has the option to acquire 80% interest.

Current drilling is focused on the Cadillac Larder Lake Fault corridor, specifically Epsilon and Pontiac East zones, (Bulldog West Extension zone () is renamed Pontiac East zone) within the Alpha property. The Epsilon and Pontiac East zones are on each side of the sheared ultramafic volcanics of the Piche Group. Follow up drilling at Bulldog, located 1.5 km east, is pending freeze-up conditions to allow access. 

New analytical results include 9.3 g/t Au over 6.0 metres, including 25.7 g/t Au over 1.9 metres in

CAX-19-016. O3 Mining President and Chief Executive Officer, Jose Vizquerra Benavides, commented: “The drilling campaign on the Alpha property has significantly expanded the Epsilon zone, now being traced over a 1.5 km strike and opened laterally, as well as continue to confirm mineralized intercepts within the Pontiac sediments. This new zone opens a possibility to a mineralized envelope of significant width.”

Mineralization in CAX-19-016, in the Epsilon zone, is hosted within sheared sericitized and carbonatized graywackes and tuffs with quartz tourmaline carbonate veins. There is 2% arsenopyrite and trace pyrite within veins or disseminated in the tourmalinized host-rock. Within this larger altered zone, there are smokey-quartz veins associated with visible gold and arsenopyrite. These low angle smokey-quartz veins are typical of the Orenada Zone 4 type mineralization, located 1.5 km to the east.

The Pontiac East zone is characterized by albitized, carbonatized and silicified sediments of the Pontiac Group, containing quartz-carbonate veinlets, disseminated pyrite – arsenopyrite mineralization and visible gold locally.

Qualified Person

The scientific and technical content of this news release has been reviewed, prepared and approved by Mr. Sebastien Vigneau, P.Geo. (OGQ #993), Exploration Manager, who is a "qualified person" as defined by National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101").

Quality Control and Reporting Protocols

True width determination is currently unknown but is estimated at 65-80% of the reported core length interval for the zones. Assays are uncut except where indicated. Intercepts occur within geological confines of major zones but have not been correlated to individual vein domains at this time. Half-core samples are shipped to Agat laboratory in Val D’Or, Quebec and Mississauga, Ontario for assaying. The core is crushed to 75% passing -2 mm (10 mesh), a 250 g split of this material is pulverized to 85% passing 75 microns (200 mesh) and 50 g is analyzed by Fire Assay (FA) with an Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS) finish. Samples assaying >10.0 g/t Au are re-analyzed with a gravimetric finish using a 50 g charge. Commercial certified standard material and blanks are systematically inserted by O3 Mining’s geologists into the sample chain after every 18 core samples as part of the QA/QC program. Third-party assays are submitted to other designated laboratories for 5% of all samples. Drill program design, Quality Assurance/Quality Control ("QA/QC") and interpretation of results is performed by qualified persons employing a QA/QC program consistent with NI 43-101 and industry best practices.
