The Property lies within the Abitibi greenstone gold belt, along the Cadillac break, a prolific gold bearing regional structure that has produced 100 million ounces of gold since 1900. Historical drilling on the property prior to IAMGOLD has identified a number of gold zones, including the Calder-Bousquet Zones No. 2, No. 4 and No. 5. Historical drilling has been relatively shallow, down to approximately 250 m).

Selected results from IAMGOLD's 2010 to 2016 drilling programs include:

  • 27.9 g/t Au over 6.5 m (from 140.0 to 146.5 m depth in hole BO-16-56)
  • 29.3 g/t Au over 3.3 m (from 389.0 to 392.3 m depth in hole BO-12-32)
  • 9.6 g/t Au over 16.5 m (from 164.0 to 180.5 m depth in hole BO-11-06)
  • 5.8 g/t Au over 4.4 m (from 135.3 m to 139.7 m depth in hole BO-13-40)

Note: the drilling results referenced above are historical and have not been independently verified and validated by the Company and should not be relied on.

J.C. St-Amour, President and CEO, said "The location of this project along the Cadillac-Break, in the shadow of some prolific producers, is exceptional from an infrastructure, accessibility and prospectivity perspective. Previous drilling on the project has intercepted high grades near surface and we believe the Bousquet-Odyno has been underexplored and offers great exploration potential. We have based this drill program on our interpretation of previous work and are targeting areas which we believe will deliver results and increase our understanding of the mineralized body."
