Midland Exploration (MD-V) starts drilling at Laflamme

Jan 15, 2013 - News Release

Midland Exploration Inc. has commenced an important diamond drilling program on its Laflamme property, along strike from the gold discovery made in 2012 by Maudore Minerals Ltd., about 12 kilometres northwest of the Comtois gold deposit. The Laflamme project is located about 25 kilometres northwest of the town of Lebel-sur-Quevillon, Que.

This diamond drilling program comprising seven drill holes for a total of 1,500 metres minimum, is mainly designed to test several new, recently defined, high-priority geophysical targets located along the strike extensions of Maudore's recent discovery, where grades of 71.7 grams per tonne gold over 1.2 metres and 0.8 g/t Au over 40.8 metres were reported, about 12 kilometres northwest of the Comtois gold deposit (source: press release by Maudore dated June 6, 2012).

The seven geophysical targets to be tested in this program include four helicopter-borne (VTEM) conductors, two induced polarization (IP) anomalies with coincident magnetic anomalies and one electromagnetic (max-min) anomaly. All of these geophysical anomalies represent prime drilling targets and are located in a very favourable setting, at a distance of one kilometre to five kilometres on either side of the Maudore discovery.

The Laflamme property covers more than 50 kilometres of favourable stratigraphy and structures, with potential for orogenic gold, volcanogenic massive sulphides (copper-zinc), and magmatic nickel-copper-platinum-group-element deposits associated with ultramafic rocks. This property was initially acquired in 2008 based on the presence of significant gold, copper and zinc anomalies in till, identified under the Octave project jointly led by the Ministere des Ressources Naturelles et de la Faune (MRNF) and the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC).

The Laflamme project, currently a 50/50 joint venture with North American Palladium Ltd., consists of 724 claims totalling about 370 square kilometres.
