CBLT Samples up to 25.7 g/t Au at Past Producer Falcon Gold, Sudbury, Ontario
CBLT Inc. (TSXV: CBLT) has reported successful results from its Phase 1 reconnaissance prospecting program at the past-producing Falcon Gold Property in Sudbury, Ontario. The program confirmed high-grade gold mineralization, with grab samples yielding up to 25.7 g/t Au. The property, recently purchased from Kinross Gold Corp., has a history of gold discovery dating back to 1890.
Key findings include:
- 23 grab samples collected, with 7 samples returning grades over 2 g/t Au
- Gold mineralization associated with a pyrite-rich shear zone
- Historical resource estimate of 59,400 tons grading 0.226 oz/ton (not NI 43-101 compliant)
CBLT plans further work, including additional sampling and mapping, ahead of a mechanized stripping program to better understand the geological controls at Falcon Gold.

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - July 31, 2024) - CBLT Inc. (TSXV: CBLT) ("CBLT") is pleased to report on its successful Phase 1 reconnaissance prospecting program completed on the past producing Falcon Gold Property (the "Property"). The Property is located on patented mining claims in Sudbury, Ontario, which were recently purchased from Kinross Gold Corp. (see news release dated June 5, 2023). It is contiguous to CBLT's Copper Prince property.
Peter M. Clausi, CEO of CBLT comments, "This successful initial work program confirms the presence of high-grade gold mineralization as reported by previous operators. Further work is ongoing including additional sampling and mapping ahead of a mechanized stripping program that will allow for a better understanding of the geological controls at Falcon Gold."
Gold mineralization on the Property was initially discovered in 1890. During the same year, a shaft was sunk to a depth of 46 ft followed by 59 ft of crosscutting. In 1935, the shaft was dewatered and deepened to 215 ft with levels established at 100 and 200 ft. No records are known to exist regarding production from the Falcon Gold Mine.
In 1947, Falconbridge Ltd. acquired the Property and completed several phases of exploration on the Property. In 1988, Falconbridge completed a 24-hole, 14,951 ft drill program and calculated resources at 59,400 tons grading 0.226 oz/ton (Bailey, 1994). (The mineral resource estimate is a historical estimate as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The historical resource estimate contains categories that are not consistent with current CIM definitions. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. No attempt was made to reconcile the historical resource estimate. CBLT is not treating the historical resource estimate as a current mineral resource or mineral reserve.)
In 1994, G. Bailey collected five grab samples from near the former mine shaft. Two pyrite-rich surface samples assayed 50.47 and 53.21 g/t Au whereas three pyrite-rich dump samples assayed 33.60 g/t Au, 38.33 g/t Au, and 40.46 g/t Au.
To follow up on Bailey's work and the historical resource estimate, during May, 2024 CBLT completed an initial 3-day prospecting program with the purpose of locating historical features on the Property, verifying mineralization described by previous operators at the past-producing Falcon Gold Mine site, and completing regional traverses.
A total of 23 grab samples were collected from outcrop and loose material near the historical Falcon Gold Mine site. Results range from <0.005 g/t Au to 25.70 g/t Au. Out of the 23 grab samples, 7 samples returned grades greater than 2 g/t Au, with a highlight of 25.7 g/t Au (Figure 1, Table 1). Gold mineralization is associated within a pyrite-rich carbonate-actinolite-chlorite-talc shear zone which strikes approximately 110° and dips 65° to 70° to the southwest, and cross cuts underlying Paleoproterozoic sedimentary rocks of the Bruce, Espanola, Serpent of the Quirk Lake Group, and the Mississagi Formation of the Hough Lake Group, belonging to the Huronian Supergroup. The easterly striking Garson Fault and northwest striking Bailey Corners Fault project through the Falcon Gold Property.

Grab samples are selective in nature, and the above reported assay results may not be representative of the mineralization on the Property.
QA/QC Program
Grab samples were collected from the field and inserted into labeled bags, sealed, and delivered by representatives of CBLT to Activation Laboratories Ltd. in North Bay, Ontario. Activation Laboratories Ltd. is an ISO 17025:2005 accredited testing laboratory.
Samples were analyzed by fire assay using the 1A2 package with a gravimetric finish (1A3 package) for samples that returned greater than 5,000 ppb Au. CBLT inserted standards and blanks as part of its QA/QC program. Activation Laboratories also performs an internal QA/QC program which includes the insertion of CRM's, blanks, sample repeats, and duplicate samples.

CBLT's operations could be significantly adversely affected by the effects of a widespread global outbreak of a contagious disease, including the recent outbreak of illness caused by COVID-19. It is not possible to accurately predict the impact COVID-19 will have on operations and the ability of others to meet their obligations, including uncertainties relating to the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, and the length of travel and quarantine restrictions imposed by governments of affected countries. In addition, a significant outbreak of contagious diseases in the human population could result in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn that could further affect operations and the ability to finance its operations.
