QMX Gold Corporation (“QMX” or the “Company”)
(TSX:V:QMX) is pleased to report the filling on SEDAR of a
technical report titled "Mineral Resource Estimate For the
Bonnefond South Intrusive Project, Val d'Or, Québec, Canada" ("the
report"). The report effective date is September 12, 2019. It was
prepared by BBA Inc. in accordance with National Instrument 43-101
standards and rules. The report was prepared by Mr. Pierre-Luc
Richard, P.Geo. and Mrs. Charlotte Athurion, P.Geo. from BBA Inc.,
both are "Qualified Persons" as defined by NI 43-101.
Highlights:
Using a 0.75 g/t Au cut-off, the current mineral
resource estimate is (Table 1):
- Indicated resource of
4,755,000 tonnes at 1.69 g/t Au for 258,700 ounces,

Notes to table 1:
1. The independent qualified person for the 2019 MRE, as defined
by NI 43-101 guidelines, is Pierre-Luc Richard, P. Geo., of BBA
Inc. The effective date of the estimate is July 18, 2019.
2.These mineral resources are not mineral reserves as they do
not have demonstrated economic viability. The quantity and grade of
reported Inferred resources in this MRE are uncertain in nature and
there has been insufficient exploration to define these Inferred
and Indicated resources as Measured, however It is reasonably
expected that the majority of Inferred Mineral Resources could be
upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued
exploration.
3. A cut-off grade of 0.75g/t Au was used for the MRE. The
cut-off grade was calculated using the following parameters
(amongst others): gold price = 1,300USD, CAD:USD exchange rate =
1.31, Mining cost = 3.50 CAD$/t mined, Processing cost = 26.50
CAD$/t processed, G&A = 4.00 CAD$/t processed, Transportation
cost = 8.00 CAD$/t processed. The cut-off grade will be
re-evaluated in light of future prevailing market conditions and
costs.
4. Resources are presented as undiluted and in situ for an
open-pit scenario and are considered to have reasonable prospects
for economic extraction. The pit optimization was done using
Hexagon’s MineSight Version 15.10. The constraining pit shell was
developed using pit slopes of 50 degree in hard rock and 26.5
degree in overburden. Other parameters are the same that were used
for the cut-off grade (see above).
5. The MRE was prepared using Geovia® GEMS 6.8.2.2 and is based
on 94 surface drillholes, of which 83 intercepted mineralization,
with a total of 7,334 assays. The resource database was validated
before proceeding to the resource estimation. Grade model resource
estimation was calculated from drillhole data using an Ordinary
Kriging interpolation method in a block model using blocks
measuring 5 m x 5 m x 5 m in size. The cut-off date for drillhole
assays was June 10, 2019.
6. The model comprises 12 mineralized shear zones (which have a
minimum thickness of 3 m), 2 lithological units and 1 mineralized
body included in the tonalite intrusive unit each defined by
individual wireframes.
7. High-grade capping was done on the composited assay data and
established on a per unit basis. Capping grades used are 2.0 g/t Au
for the Diorite unit, 2.5 g/t Au for the Tonalite unit, 25 g/t Au
for the Shear Zones and 35 g/t Au for the Mineralized Tonalite. A
value of zero grade was applied in cases of core not assayed. 8.
Fixed density values were established on a per unit basis,
corresponding to the median of the SG data of each unit ranging
from 2.69 to 2.81. A fixed density of 2.00 g/cm3 was assigned to
the overburden.
9. The MRE presented herein is categorized as an Inferred and
Indicated resource. The Inferred mineral resource category is
defined for blocks that are informed by a minimum of two drillholes
where drill spacing is less than 100 m for the mineralized
intrusive-related mineralization and less than 80 m for the
shear zones. Indicated Mineral Resources were defined for the
mineralization contains in the altered tonalite where blocks have
been informed by a minimum of three drillholes and where drill
spacing is less than 50 m. No indicated resource was defined
for the shear zones, the unaltered tonalite, and the diorite. Where
needed, some material have been either upgraded or downgraded to
avoid isolated blocks.
10. The number of metric tons was rounded to the nearest
thousand.
11. CIM definitions and guidelines for Mineral Resource
Estimates have been followed.
12. The author is not aware of any known environmental,
permitting, legal, title-related, taxation, socio-political or
marketing issues, or any other relevant issues not reported in this
Technical Report, that could materially affect the Mineral Resource
Estimate.
