Page 22 program was designed to test the continuity of the new Gos selin zone in a number of direc tions from the discovery hole GOS1705 and to determine if the gold mineralization inter sected at depth extends to sur face The program included one drill hole executed as a deepen ing of a preexisting shallow drill hole from 2015 CL1539 EXT All drill holes from the 2017 2018 campaign were collared from land on the north shore of Three Ducks Lake The drilling program has con frmed the presence of a wide corridor of gold mineralization with approximate dimensions of 750 metres strike 200 metres width and 400 metres depth Thirteen of the fourteen com pleted drill holes intersected signifcant core intervals with elevated gold values After the initial discovery of the Gosselin Zone a relogging and core sampling program of his torical drill holes which originally targeted the nearby Y oung Shannon high grade vein system to the southwest of the Gosselin Zone was initiated to seek a possible connection to the intrusion hosted mineralization intersected at Gos selin The Company also reported assay results from a drill core relogging and sampling program of historical drill holes located along a potential southwest extension of this discov ery referred to as the Y oungShan non Zone Drill hole YS878 325 metres grad ing 753 gt Au Drill hole YS90181 1285 metres grading 112 gt Au Historical exploration work carried out on the Y oungShannon prop erty since the late 1920 s and in termittently until the early 2000 s included extensive diamond drilling 225 drill holes and 33300 me tres of drilling and underground exploration comprising a shallow inclined shaft with levels at 30 and 57 metres depth along with a lim ited amount 200 metres of lateral development The historical work outlined gold values over narrow widths in structurallycontrolled quartzveins within the more mafc phases of granodiorite and it was concluded by previous owners to be an Archean lodegold style of mineralization hosted in discontinu ous veins The 2019 Phase I exploration dia mond drilling program has com menced and entails the completion Contd from pg 18 of 15 planned diamond drill holes 4500 metres mainly on Three Ducks Lake The program is de signed to test for the extension of the new Gosselin zone to surface beneath Three Ducks Lake and to delineate the ultimate size potential of this discovery The program will also test for continuity between the new Gosselin Zone and the recent ly discovered intrusionhosted gold mineralization associated with the Y oungShannon Zone As results merit a second phase of drilling is anticipated to com plete an infll drilling program 50 to 75 metres drill hole spacing to support the completion of an initial NI 43101 compliant resource esti mate in 2020 IAMGOLD 2019 Phase I exploration diamond drilling program starts
