Val-d'Or, Quebec, December 3, 2013, - Knick Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: KNX) is pleased to report that after manual stripping to expose "Vein No. 7", thirty six channel samples and 1 grab sample were taken along 54 meters. The 25 samples of the vein assayed from 0.035 to 26.33g/t gold over widths of 0.18 to 0.95 meters, of which, 12 samples assayed greater than 1.00g/t gold and 5 samples assayed greater than 10.00g/t gold. Vein highlights include 7.82g/t, 14.84g/t and 26.33g/t gold over 0.95m, 0.55m and 0.47m, respectively. The average grade of the vein samples is 2.01g/t gold with an average width of 0.44 meters. The 12 samples of granite wall rock results ranged from 0.009 to 1.47 g/t gold including 7 samples greater than 0.10g/t and 1 sample greater than 1.0g/t gold. Combined vein and wall rock sample results include 4.33g/t over 1.75m and 6.84g/t over 0.71m. On a 5.4 meter section of the vein samples averaged 8.27g/t gold with an average width of 0.61 meters.
Channel sampling can be compared with horizontal drilling where as grab samples are selective by nature and are unlikely to represent the average grade of the mineralized zone.
The manual stripping and sampling was performed this summer on "Vein No. 7" in the Chib-Kayrand Area of the Trecesson Property. It was performed as follow up to grab sample assays 6.27 g/t, and 14.13g/t, gold obtained during Knick's preliminary work of 2012 (previously reported Nov. 14, 2012 press).
Samples were sent to Expert Laboratory in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec for analysis.
Fire assay and metallic sieve methods were implemented for analysis.
Standards and blanks are submitted by Knick routinely to insure quality control.
The Chib-Kayrand Area is located in the east part of Knick's Trecesson property. The property covers most of the Trecesson Batholith which has similar characteristics to the Bourlamaque Batholith of the Val d'Or mining camp. It is located 12 km from the town of Amos and approximately 65 km north northwest of Val d' Or. The Trecesson Gold Property is traversed by paved and all weather gravel roads making it accessible year round.
