Emperor Intersects 15.8 g/t Au over 10.8 m on Duquesne West Property Under Option from Globex

To date, Emperor have completed 8,239 m of the initial +8,000 m drill program, having recently completed drill hole DQ23-13.  Emperor previously announced partial assays from holes DQ23-01 and DQ23-02 (click to Globex press release dated September 12, 2023).
Results included:

DQ23-01:          5.63 g/t Au over 11.70 m, including 7.98 g/t Au over 5.75 m
DQ23-02:          3.97 g/t Au over 10.65 m, including 5.34 g/t Au over 5.00 m and
 1.69 g/t Au over 25 m, including 3.12 g/t Au over 7.00 m

As regards these two holes, Emperor has now announced additional mineralized intersections as follows:

DQ23-01:               2.77 g/t Au over 4.15 m from 659.7 m to 663.85 m
0.62 g/t Au over 22.6 m from 794.40 m to 817.0 m
0.33 g/t Au over 28.8 m from 914.15 m to 942.95 m

DQ23-02               1.99 g/t Au over 2.0 m from 517.2 m to 519.2 m
2.69 g/t Au over 2.5 m from 677.1 m to 679.6 m

Assay results from new holes DQ23-03, 04 and 05 are now announced as follows:

DQ23-03               5.09 g/t Au over 1.1 m from 417.75 m to 418.85 m
6.14 g/t Au over 2.0 m from 941.20 m to 943.20 m

DQ23-04               0.45 g/t Au over 17.50 m from 318.50 m to 336.00 m
6.23 g/t Au over 2.75 m from 433.70 m to 436.45 m
4.24 g/t Au over 3.00 m from 449.00 m to 452.00 m
19.01 g/t Au over 1.20 m from 548.30 m to 549.50 m
0.45 g/t Au over 34.70 m from 571.30 m to 606.00 m
2.95 g/t Au over 1.25 m from 651.35 m to 652.60 m

DQ23-05               5.01 g/t Au over 2.5 m from 133.00 m to 135.50 m
0.50 g/t Au over 24.4 m from 257.20 m to 281.60 m
2.00 g/t Au over 3.1 m from 391.90 m to 395.00 m
15.85 g/t Au over 10.80 m from 556.00 m to 566.80 m,                                       including 27.24 g/t Au over 3.4 m
0.52 g/t Au over 18.35 m from 575.65 m to 594.00 m

It is believed that Hole DQ23-05 extends the targeted gold zone an additional +100 metres along plunge.
