"While this project is still in its early days and despite the fact that each hole is very far from each other, it is interesting to note that sulphide mineralization was encountered in six exploration holes so far" stated Martin Dallaire, President and Chief Executive Officer of Visible Gold Mines.
The diamond drilling program is still underway by Chibougamau Diamond Drilling Ltd. of Chibougamau, Québec.

About 167 Project
In 2011, when the Québec Government launched its ambitious Plan Nord project to develop Québec's north, including the construction of a 243 kilometre-long all-season road that links Stornoway's Renard Diamond project to the provincial highway network, Visible Gold Mines' management decided to acquire the available mining rights along each side of the new road in order to have access to new outcrops and strippings generated by the road construction. Visible Gold Mines acquired claims by acquisition and staking and so the 167 Project was born. Out of the 140 kilometres of new road available for mining exploration (the first 102 kilometres are a planned provincial park), Visible Gold Mines owns more than 110 kilometres. The road has been completed since October 1, 2014 at a construction cost of approximately $350 million. The 167 Project is 100% owned by Visible Gold Mines and represents with recent acquisitions up to 61,178 hectares or 611 km2.
