VIO Vior Inc

SOCIÉTÉ D’EXPLORATION MINIÈRE VIOR INC. ("Vior"), (TSX-Venture: VIO, FRANKFURT: VL51) – is pleased to announce that it has commenced its Field Program on the recently signed Earn-In agreement with Ethos Gold Corp (“Ethos”) (TSX-V: ECC) (OTCQB: ETHOF). Ligneris is a 36.2-sq-km project 100%-owned by Vior, located 100 km northeast of Rouyn-Noranda. The Ligneris Project’s rocks, alteration and mineralization are similar to those found at the Bousquet-LaRonde mining Complex situated 80 km to the south.

The Ligneris 2019 Summer Field Program consists of a recently completed till survey to delineate new gold targets, undertaking of a 150-km line cutting program and a 125-km Gradient IP survey along a strike of 7 km in the dacitic volcanic package of the Project. Once the Field Program is complete, the plan is to quickly permit and begin a Fall 2019 drill program to test the extensions at depth of the main mineralized zones, as well as the VTEM and new Gradient IP targets.

CARLIN-EAST PROJECT (Ridgeline Minerals)

Vior holds an approximate 8.3% equity interest in privately held Ridgeline Minerals (a wholly owned Nevada subsidiary of Carlin-Type Holdings Ltd) where work is underway on their recently acquired Carlin-East Project. Carlin-East is a 17-square-km core land position in the Carlin trend that is on trend with Newmont’s multimillion-ounce Leeville-Turf gold mine and adjacent to Barrick’s Goldstrike (50+ million ounces Au, past production and reserve) complex. The primary mineralization controlling structures (Four Corners & Lynn Faults) bounding the Leeville-Turf mine are interpreted to extend onto the Carlin-East property and coincide with a kilometer-scale Au in soils anomaly centered over a pronounced gravity geophysics high.

Ridgeline has recently completed a property-wide gravity survey, a phase 1 soils program totaling 250 samples and a detailed structural mapping program followed by integration of all data into a leapfrog 3D model. A 5.0 acre BLM Notice of Intent drilling permit has been approved and bonded with the first of two planned drill holes beginning on July 23rd, 2019. Drilling will target Carlin-Type mineralization within Ridgelines highest priority target in the Four Corners – Lynn structural corridor with a proposed target depth of 1700’-2200’ and the drill capable of extending to 3000+ feet if warranted. Assay results are expected by end of August, 2019.
