ABSTRACT:Detour Gold Corporation (TSX: DGC) (“Detour Gold” or the “Company”) reports on its 2016 exploration and drilling programs at the Detour Lake property in northeastern Ontario. In 2016, the Company completed a total of 52,079 metres of infill drilling at Zone 58N, approximately seven kilometres south of the Detour Lake processing plant facility. Since the update provided in July 2016 on the results from the Phase 1 drilling program, the Company received all the assay results from the Phase 2 drilling program completed this fall (15,249 metres in 46 holes). The majority of the infill drilling was at 25 metre spacing, testing the top 250 metres of the deposit. Results continued to demonstrate the continuity of the gold mineralization and provided a high level of confidence in the upper part of the deposit, further confirming the underground mining potential of Zone 58N. Significant assay results from Phase 2 are listed in Table 1. On January 4, 2017, the Company started a surface infill drilling program of approximately 30,000 metres between 250 and 450 metres below surface with the objective of increasing the understanding of grade and geometry for that part of the deposit. Selected holes will also be drilled deeper to delineate continuity at depth. The gold mineralized system (Zones 58N and 75) has been intersected over an east-west strike length of 450 metres, from surface to a depth of 800 metres. The mineralized system remains open at depth. Gold mineralization is mainly found within an altered feldspar porphyry intrusive characterized by brittle deformation, containing quartz and/or quartz-tourmaline veins with up to 5% pyrite and multiple occurrences of visible gold.
