CHALICE FILES UPDATED 43-101 TECHNICAL REPORT
Chalice Gold Mines Ltd. today filed an updated and revised technical report, and mineral resource estimate on the company's Cameron gold camp project in Canada with the Canadian securities regulators. The report has been prepared in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 and forms part of the company's continuing disclosure obligations for its listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange, and is also in accordance with JORC code (2012 edition). A copy of the report can be obtained from SEDAR or from the company's website.
Cameron gold camp project background
The Cameron gold camp project is an advanced exploration project located in the southern part of Western Ontario approximately 80 kilometres southeast of the town of Kenora. The project currently consists of two project areas, namely Cameron and West Cedartree, both owned 100 per cent by the company. The Cameron gold deposit lies within the Cameron project area, whilst Dubenski and Dogpaw are located eight to 10 kilometres west of the Cameron deposit on the West Cedartree tenements. The combined mineral resources for the three deposits comprising the Cameron gold camp project at cut-off grades appropriate to location for open-cut and underground mining are summarized in the attached table. This revised mineral resource estimate for the Cameron gold camp project updates and replaces previously reported mineral resources announced by the previous project owner, Coventry Resources Inc., for the Cameron and Dubenski gold deposits dated July 5, 2012 (JORC 2004-compliant), and the Dogpaw gold deposit dated May 13, 2013 (JORC 2012-compliant).
