Chateau Fort Property, Quebec

Chateau Fort adjoins the “167” property currently being drilled by Visible Gold Mines Inc. In late 2014, Visible Gold announced the discovery of high-grade Au-Cu-Ag boulders at Km 147 and KM 150 along the newly constructed Route 167 Extension, a 4-season road providing direct access to the region. The property is also along strike and directly adjacent to the past-producing Eastmain Mine of Eastmain’s Ruby Hill project as well as directly south of their Lac Lessard Property. Eastmain plans a work program of $1 million and $500k respectively on those properties which will include an extensive drill program at each (PR- eastmain.com January 27).

The Chateau Fort property is 18,867 hectares in size and includes Au, Ag, Cu, Zn and As anomalies from Anthem’s geochemical surveys (lake bottom, soil and stream sediments). Compilation work has identified nine high-priority gold targets for follow-up. Tarku plans a $230,000 airborne EM survey in spring of 2015 and follow-up ground work later in the year in order to identify possible drill targets.

Visible Gold has reported assays of up to 63.83 g.t Au, 62.6 g/t Ag, 2,.63% Cu and 4.62% Zn in 11 boulders at Km 150, and up to 142.8 g/t Au, 22.2 g/t Ag and 0.61% Cu in boulders at Km 147. Mineralized boulders are reported to be angular and magnetic with “alteration minerals and

semi-massive to massive sulphides”. The rocks have the appearance of banded mafic/felsic volcanics with sulphides and quartz layers, based on photos on the VGD website. It is likely that they are sourced from the NNE, based on the regional ice direction indicators.
