Here is the latest news from Falco Resource. The more comprehensive drill program at Donalda this year could be very significant for the Company. As they progress through the development stage at the known Horne 5 deposit the extra exportation work especially at Donada could be a great driver of news and the stock. When going through a construction phase stocks can typically lag but having an exploration program ongoing is a great strategy to keep interest and investors in the stock.

I’ll be having Vincent Metcalfe on the show to discuss these results. If you have any followup questions please email me at Fleck@kereport.com.

…Here’s the news…

MONTREAL, QC –(Marketwired – February 28, 2018) – Falco Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: FPC) (“Falco” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has commenced its 2018 exploration program on the Donalda – Quemont East target. An initial program of 20 holes for a total of 20,000 metres is planned to be completed.

In 2017, about 4,700 metres were drilled on the Donalda property. The drilling consisted of testing the extensions of the known mineralization and confirming historical results. Given its close proximity to the Horne 5 deposit, potential underground mineralization would be accessible from the Horne 5 future underground infrastructure. The 2017 Donalda targets consisted of a gold quartz vein system.

Besides testing the known vein extensions at depth, the 2018 program will test the VMS potential on the property by following the Quemont extensions. Drilling on the VMS targets will test elevations located at a depth of between 700 and 2,200 metres. Several of the projected drill holes will completely cross the felsic lithologic units to reach the Andesite fault. This fault is located south of Horne 5. The VMS potential on Donalda has never been significantly tested so far and represents a great opportunity for the Company.

Additionally, the Quemont East target, which is located between the Horne 5 deposit and the Donalda deposit, has seen little drilling activity over the years. The Company believes there is a strong potential to find additional mineralization in that area. The felsic package hosting the Quemont and Horne mines will also be tested.

THE DONALDA MINE PROPERTY

The Donalda Property is located east of the Horne 5 deposit and Quemont mine infrastructure. The property is host to two important, sub parallel, extensive and continuous gold bearing quartz veins with a historical resource (non NI 43-101 compliant(1)) of 1.5 million tonnes grading 6.9 g/t gold, of which approximately 790,000 tonnes were mined and approximately 710,000 tonnes remain unexploited.

During mine production, a 620 metre shaft provided access to the two known gold bearing vein structures. The majority of the gold was extracted from the Donalda #1 vein (782,360 tonnes at 5.58g/t were mined over seven years of production). The #2 vein was discovered about 300 metres below the #1 vein. Production coming from Donalda #2 Vein (32,145 tonnes at 5.76 g/t were mine over one year of production), was extracted from the Quemont mine.

Both vein structures remain open down dip and could have significant exploration upside. The gold bearing structures were known by previous operators to persist down-dip at least as far as the Horne Creek fault. Three other veins have also been identified by previous drilling. Those structures are sub-parallel and/or interfering with the main veins. Very little exploration has been undertaken below the 700 metres depth.

AMENDMENT TO LOAN AGREEMENT

Falco and Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd (“Osisko”) recently agreed to amend the provision relating to payment of interests under the senior note (the “Senior Note”) extended by Osisko by deferring the payment date of the interest payable on the principal amount of $10 million to the earlier of (i) five (5) business days from the closing of a financing by Falco for minimum net proceeds of $40 million or (ii) March 31, 2019, provided that no interest shall be payable prior to the maturity date of the Senior Note, as amended on November 29, 2017. Subject to the foregoing, all other provisions of Senior Note shall continue in full force and effect.
