thenewswire.ca - May 3, 2011 |
Val-d'Or, Quebec, May 3, 2011, - Knick Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: KNX) is pleased to report that a Phase I Drill Program has started on its Trecesson Gold Property. A minimum of 2,000 meters (6,550 feet) of drilling will be competed in the area hosting the Cossette Vein System. The property is located approximately 50km from the city of Val d ‘Or.
The first holes are targeting the northern part of the system where the "North Cossette Vein " returned assay values of assayed 109.82g/t gold (metallic sieve), 61.6 g/t silver, 1.41% copper, 9.39% zinc and 0.79% lead ( see press February 12, 2010).
Historically channel sampling by Noranda, circa 1938, on the North Cossette vein returned 5.7g/t gold over 61m length and 1.43m average width. Noranda channel sampling on the South Cossette vein returned a grade of 9.0g/t gold over a length of 21m and 1.22m average width. In 1964 channel sampling by Transcona Exploration on the South Cossette vein returned a grade of 9.0g/t gold over a length of 36.6m and an average width of 0.83m.

Due to the nature of the native gold mineralization occurring on the Trecesson property, Metallic Sieve gold analysis will be performed on all quartz veining to minimize "nugget effect" results and more accurately assess gold grades.
Expert Laboratory in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec will be used for sample analysis.
East-West Property:
Processing of the East West drill program data is ongoing and final further assay results are pending.
