TSX-V: VEIN | FSE: N071
TORONTO, Sept. 12, 2017 /CNW/ - Enforcer Gold Corp
("Enforcer" or the "Company") (TSX-V: VEIN; FSE: N071) is pleased
to report results from channel sampling on the Galena, No. 2 and
No. 3 veins at the Montalembert Gold Project.
The Galena and No. 2 veins are parallel, north-south striking
and steeply east-dipping shear zones separated by ~80 m. The No. 3
Vein is located ~175 m south and along strike of the No. 2 Vein.
The shear zones vary in width and cut variably chloritized,
carbonatized and silicified basalt. They host quartz
veins/stringers and trace to 5% pyrite, pyrrhotite, trace
chalcopyrite and galena and fine to coarse free gold. Enforcer has
been systematically exposing and channel sampling along the strike
extensions of the veins and peripheral to the veins.
Of a total 116 sawn channels in the Galena-No.2-No.3 vein area,
27 were infill samples along the Galena Vein, 4 were cut over the
trace of the vein in the Galena North extension, 27 were cut over
the No. 2 North extension, 8 were cut over the No. 2 South
extension and 13 were cut over multiple veins at the No. 3 Vein
exposure. On the Galena North exposure, the trace of the vein was
lost into deep overburden, hence channel sampling in this area was
largely peripheral to the trace of the structure. Significant
results from the sampling are presented in Table 1. Plan maps
showing sample locations and assay highlights are available on the
Montalembert Map Gallery.
Based on Enforcer's preliminary interpretation, gold emplacement
at Montalembert is related to late-stage extensional quartz veining
that is typically at high angles to the main structures. The
Company has engaged a structural expert with SRK Consulting to
perform a structural analysis of the vein systems to better
determine the nature and controls to gold mineralization. The field
study commenced on September 11,
2017. Enforcer anticipates that this study will aid in the
targeting of high-grade gold shoots along the vein systems.
As previously noted, the grade and continuity of veining and
mineralization in shear-hosted gold deposits in the Abitibi can be
highly erratic. The nuggety nature of the gold distribution will
remain a challenge and potentially impact sampling results.
Enforcer continues to focus on the mineralized structures with the
realization that analytical results will be highly variable. The
extension of the structures and the presence of high-grade
mineralization is the most important factor in the Company's early
evaluation of the vein systems.
As announced on August 30, 2017,
Enforcer resumed diamond drilling despite a continued backlog of
assays at the lab. The situation has yet to change as the Company
awaits complete results for the first 10 holes drilled.
President & CEO, Steve
Roebuck, comments:
"We continue to be encouraged by the continuity of the shear
zones outside of the historical exposure limits and to find
high-grade zones of gold mineralization along the length of both
veins. We expect that the SRK study will greatly enhance our
understanding of the vein systems and focus our exploration moving
forward."

Qualified Person & QAQC
Independent geological engineer, Mr. Donald Théberge, MBA, PEng, is a qualified
person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed
and approved the content of this news release.
Channel samples were collected from bedrock exposures utilizing
a diamond-blade power saw. Channel samples are typically cut 2"
wide and 2" deep and are cut perpendicular to the strike of the
quartz-bearing structures. True width is estimated to be 90-100% of
cut width. Sample preparation, fire assays (gravimetric finish) and
metallic sieve assays were performed by Activation Laboratories
Ltd. of Ancaster, Ontario, an
ISO/IEC 17025 (CAN-P-1579) accredited testing laboratory. Details
of the analytical procedure and Enforcer's Quality
Assurance/Quality Control ("QAQC") program are available on the
Enforcer website at: Montalembert QAQC.
