Laurion intersects 8.5m of 1.82 g/t gold, 2.5 g/t silver and 1.65% zinc at SturgeonRiver project

Laurion Mineral Exploration Inc. (TSXV: LME) (OTCQX: LMEFF) ("Laurion" or the "Corporation") is very pleased to announce the drill results of four drill holes totaling 841 metres completed on the A-Zone, the northeastern strike component of the 3km long Loki trend on the Sturgeon River project in Beardmore, Ontario. The focus of this drill program was to twin and confirm values recorded for historic holes 92-64, 92-65 on the A-Zone, and to test the lateral mineralization intersected in 90-47 and down dip of mineralization intersected in 90-37. These latter two historical holes had intersected horizons sub-parallel and in the hanging wall of the A-Zone.

Highlights of the drill results are as follows:

Hole LBX12-001 was collared 10m west along strike of historical hole 92-65 which had intersections of 8.80m @ 1.27 g/t Au, 0.91% Zn and 9.1m @ 1.15 g/t Au and 1.44% Zn.

Northair Intersects 170.4 g/t Silver Over 17.9 Metres at La Cigarra Project, Mexico

International Northair Mines Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:INM) (the "Company" or "Northair") is pleased to announce the assay results from nine core holes completed in the San Gregorio Zone at its La Cigarra silver project, located in north central Mexico.

"The latest infill drill results from the San Gregorio Zone continue to be positive and provide important data to the Company for the Resource calculation currently in progress," said Fred Hewett, President & CEO of Northair. "We are particularly encouraged by the drill results located at the northern end of the zone, which indicate the continuation of an open robust mineralized system trending northwest towards the La Borracha Zone."

Drill Highlights from the San Gregorio Zone Infill Program:

  • Hole CC-12-082A intercepted 18.60 metres of 22.0 g/t silver. This hole was an attempt to complete Hole CC-12-082 which was lost due to heavy faulting before reaching the target zone. Drilling once again did not reach the intended depth, but did encounter mineralization prior to stopping short of the target zone;

About the Company

The La Cigarra Project is located in the state of Chihuahua along the eastern fringes of the Sierra Madre Occidental in Mexico. Local topography is gentle with good road access to the major city of Parral, located 26 kilometres to the south east.

Probe Mines Announces Additional Assay Results for Its Borden LakeGold Project and Continued Expansion of Gold Mineralized Zones Including Up to 17 Metres of 3.0 g/t Au

PROBE MINES LIMITED (TSX VENTURE:PRB) ("Probe" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received further assays from its ongoing drilling program at the Company's Borden Lake Gold Project near Chapleau, Ontario. Results for diamond drill holes BL12-227 to BL12-246 were received and continue to expand the BordenLake gold zone to depth, identify new mineralization to the hanging wall side (northeast) of the main zone of mineralization and confirm the main zone continuity through infill drilling. Of the twenty new holes, four represent expansion of the main zone mineralization to depth; nine represent drilling in the immediate hanging wall of the main zone testing for parallel gold zones; five were drilled as a fence in the far hanging wall side of the main gold zone to test stratigraphy in this area; and the remaining two were drilled as infill to previous drilling of the main zone.

Highlights:

  • Results also include 87.6 metres @ 1.1 g/t Au and 37.4 metres @ 1.5 g/t Au
  • Main zone mineralization still open in all directions; expanded to depths greater than 500 metres
  • Above average gold-bearing intervals continue to be identified in the Hanging Wall zone
  • Infill drilling confirms continuity of main zone mineralization
