Cartier Resources {TSX.V ECR} confirm recent drilling intersected massive sulphides on their MacCormack property on Quebec.
The drill results show continuity at depth..
Opinion
The purpose of the further drilling at MacCormack was to establish continuity at depth of the mineralisation, which these drill results achieved.
The grades are good, and still open laterally and to depth.

Cartier Intersects 11.5% Zn, 0.2% Cu, 44.2 g/t Ag and 2.0 g/t Au over 0.6 m on the MacCormack Property
Val-d’Or, November 25, 2014 – Cartier Resources Inc. {TSX-V: ECR} announces that it has intersected massive sulphides grading up to 11.5% Zn, 0.2% Cu, 44.2 g/t Ag and 2.0 g/t Au over 0.6 m in its most recent drill program on the MacCormack Property, situated 25 km north-north west of the Bousquet – LaRonde mining camp infrastructures, near Malartic in the Abitibi.
The objective of this drill program was to test the lateral and depth continuity of the volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) mineralisation intersected in Cartier’s 2009 drill program. All three new holes intersected massive sulphides that outline a zone that is 180 m long by 80 m vertical and is still open laterally and at depth (Figure).

* Lengths measured along core axis.
This VMS zone is situated at the contact of two types of rhyolite facies that are highly altered with chlorite and sericite. The geological, geochemical and geophysical characteristics shows that the continuity of the favourable contact over a 3 km strike length on the property.
“Having met all the objectives of the recent program, the next step is to continue drilling along the projected extension of the mineralisation at depth and laterally. Our focus is on the geometric vectors that will lead us to thicker intersections of massive sulphides” commented Philippe Cloutier, President and CEO.
