Clarity Metals Corp.

  

Vancouver, BC – TheNewswire – December 4, 2023, Clarity Metals Corp. (“Clarity” or the “Company”) (CSE:CMET) (OTC:CLGCF) (FSE:27G0) is pleased to provide an update on its 100% owned 5,979 hectare Fecteau Gold Project located in the Province of Quebec (the “Property”).

Highlights of the Fecteau Project

  • 5,833 m of diamond drilling by Clarity in 2022 bringing total drilling to date on the property to 11,943m 

    • Highlight results include the highest ever gold intercepts on the property: 

      • FEC-22-05 from 149.4 m 14.91 g/t Au over 1.0 m 

      • FEC-22-13 from 168.8 m 5.98 g/t Au over 0.6 m 

    • Confirmation of VMS targets 

    • Confirmation of mineralization in multiple favourable structures 

  • Multiple targets remain untested along mineralized structures 

  • 0km east of Osisko Mining’s Windfall Lake Project and Bonterra Resources’ Gladiator Project (Figure 1). 

  • Two of the five new targets generated from till sampling in 2020 have also been surveyed with an IP array 

    • Targets A, B and D were drill tested 

    • Two of the five new targets remain undrilled.  

  • 14 mineral showings including: 

    • Lac Fecteau Est: 2.42g/t Au over 2.65m (7575-77-16), 1.82 g/t Au over 4.9m (111036-88-16) in drill core 

    • Buteux-Marceau: Anomalous grab samples, including 4.11 g/t Au 

    • Lac Pistolet: Anomalous grab samples, including 1.08 g/t Au and 1.91% Cu 

    • Desgagné: Anomalous samples, including 1.00 g/t Au trench sample over massive sulphide 

    • Lac Fecteau Nord: 1.71 g/t Au over 1.5m (7515-77-12) in drill core  

    • Porphyre: Anomalous grab samples, including 7.09 g/t Au 

James Rogers CEO of Clarity comments “We are excited about the exploration upside of the Fecteau Gold Project. We have confirmed mineralization in structures. The project is well situated in an exciting area adjacent to Osisko’s Windfall Lake Project which published its maiden resource earlier this year.”

The Fecteau Gold Property is known to host two types of mineralization: VMS (Cu-Zn-Au) and mesothermal gold. Both styles of mineralization were tested during this program. VMS targets are represented in the field by numerous gossans of semi-massive to massive sulphides located along and near an east-west trending rhyolite-dacite contact observed over 10 km of strike. Past drilling near surface intersected anomalous copper-zinc intervals associated with anomalous gold.

Mesothermal gold bearing quartz veins are observed at both ends of the property (western and eastern portions) where the volcanic sequence is folded. East-west striking meter-scale shear veins developed parallel to the axial plan of the folds.

The Fecteau Property is located within the Urban-Barry Greenstone Belt and covers rocks of similar age and composition to those hosting the intrusive complex of Osisko Mining’s Windfall Lake Deposit.

Exploration Update

At the end of 2022, Clarity drilled a total of 5833m in 15 holes across 7 targets on the Fecteau Property. These targets included VMS type targets and orogenic gold type targets which were generated from geological, geophysical, geochemical and till surveys recently completed on the property as well as compilations of past work. Drilling was carried out with 2 rigs supplied by RJLL Drilling with technical support from GL Geoservices.

  • FEC-22-01 and 02 tested Target 1B (Au and base metals) 

  • FEC-22-03, 05, 07, 13, and 15 tested Target 6 (Fecteau East or Soquem gold showing) 

  • FEC-22-04 tested Target 1D (Au and base metals) 

  • FEC-22-06 tested the Plunge base metals showing 

  • FEC-22-08 and 10 tested Target area 1A (Au and base metals) 

  • FEC-22-09 and 11 tested Fecteau Nord or Noranda base metals showing 

  • FEC-22-12 and 14 tested the Porphyre gold showing 

 

The highest grade gold intercepts were in hole FEC-22-05 and FEC-22-13 at the Fecteau East showing. The most prominent structure was encountered in FEC-22-14 which intersected 0.80m of 1.08 g/t Au at the Porphyre showing. Drill holes into the VMS targets successfully intercepted exhalative material containing disseminated to locally massive sulphides and returned anomalous Cu and Zn values in holes FEC-22-04 and FEC-22-09.  A total of 1360 samples were submitted to the lab, results are summarized in table 1. The Property has full coverage with triaxial airborne magnetic response.

QA/QC

Drill core was quick logged before being shipped to a logging facility in Rouyn-Noranda. Samples of half core were then shipped to Bureau Veritas in Timmins, Ontario (ISO/IEC 17025:2017) for analysis by aqua regia digest with an ICP-Es finish (AQ300) and fire assay for gold (FA430) as well as a metallic screen fire assay for gold results exceeding 2 g/t (FS652). Standards, blanks and lab duplicates were added to the sample stream at regular intervals.
