Osisko Mining’s Windfall Lake Project and Bonterra Resources’
Gladiator Project (Figure 1).
- 9 mineral
showings including:
- Lac Fecteau
Est: 2.42g/t Au over 2.65m, 1.82 g/t Au over 4.9m in drill
core
- Buteux-Marceau:
up to 4.11 g/t Au in grab samples

1.00 g/t Au in a trench over massive sulphide
- Lac Fecteau
Nord: 1.71 g/t Au over 1.5m in drill core
- Lac Fecteau
Porphyry: up to 7.09 g/t Au in grab samples
- 5 new
exploration targets generated from till sampling, some of which
have been followed up with an IP survey.
“With Osisko and Bonterra’s continued successes
on this trend and the overarching tenure of gold in the Abitibi as
a whole, we are excited to continue our exploration in the belt and
this project shows the mineralization, alteration and structural
complexity that we look for,” stated James Rogers, CEO. “We are
excited to get to work advancing the targets Opus has diligently
worked to define.”
The Fecteau Property
- The property
consists of one claim block containing 107 claims for a total of
5,979.02 hectares in the Urban-Barry Windfall mining district.
- The property is
known to host two types of mineralization: VMS (Cu-Zn-Au) and
mesothermal gold. Both styles of mineralization will be targeted
during the Company’s 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 metric wide shear veins developed
parallel to the axial plan of the folds. This drilling program will
target potential down dip or down plunge extensions of the known
mineralization.
