Mr. Glenn Shevchenko reports
Encouraging results have been reported from the first seven drill holes (1,389m) completed by Cameco
Gold on Major General's Despinassy property.
Numerous quartz veins with gold values exceeding 1 g/t were encountered in holes 98-4, 98-5 and 98-7.
The best intervals included 2.2 g/t Au over 2.6m, 4.9 g/t Au over 1.2m, and 9.9 g/t Au over 0.3m. The
gold-quartz veins are contained within two wide, parallel deformation zones and are associated with two
distinct felsic porphyries. The deformation zones have been traced along strike for over 1.8km by
drilling and appear open ended.
Located 70km north of Val d'Or, the property covers an extensive deformation zone in volcanic rocks of
the Abitibi Greenstone belt. Drill holes were targeted to test the known gold bearing structure as well as
new IP anomalies outlined by a geophysical survey completed early this year. Cameco intends to
complete further geophysical surveys later this year in preparation for future drilling.
