Lac Lessard Project Drilling High-Priority VTEM Targets Completed

Eastmain Resources Inc. (TSX: ER) announced the completion of a phase-one drilling program to test highly-prospective VTEM geophysical targets at its Lac Lessard project. The program, funded by Darnley Bay Resources Ltd. (TSX: V: DBL), as part of its first-year work commitment to an option agreement, whereby DBL can earn 50% of the project, consisted of 11 drill holes (1,995 metres) of heli-supported diamond drilling.

10 VTEM geophysical targets coincident with the Crete-du-Coq ultramafic intrusion were tested during the drill program. Field work completed during the summer of 2014 delineated a number of areas containing disseminated sulphides, with elevated nickel-copper-PGM values within this layered ultramafic intrusion.  Nine of eleven holes drilled intersected layered pyroxenite and gabbro units comprising the Crete-du-Coq intrusion. Moderate to strong rock alteration, consisting of serpentine, talc and magnetite was observed in drill core. Associated disseminated sulphides include pyrrhotite, pyrite and chalcopyrite.
