ABSTRACT:Richmont Mines Inc. (TSX: RIC) (NYSE: RIC) ("Richmont" or the "Corporation"), is pleased to provide an update from its strategic exploration and delineation drilling program currently underway at the cornerstone Island Gold Mine. Recent exploration drilling has identified new high-grade mineralization located approximately 800 metres east of the main Island Gold deposit with hole GD-640-05 intersecting 20.6 g/t gold over 11.3 metres (core length). All results are reported with estimated true width, unless otherwise indicated, and high-grade assays are capped at 225 g/t gold for the Lower C zone and 70 g/t for the E1E zone, the main mineralized zone east of the second dyke. "Results from the strategic drilling program at the Island Gold Mine continue to demonstrate the significant near-term potential of this high quality deposit. In the eastern lateral extension, drilling has identified a new mineralized zone in the down plunge extension of a high-grade trend that was identified in 2016. This new area is located only 500 metres east and below the new resource blocks, which indicates that the structure could continue at depth." stated Renaud Adams, CEO. He continued, "The early results from our delineation drilling in the Expansion Case PEA area indicate the significant potential to further expand our reserves at higher than current average grades. In 2017 we will continue to advance our systematic drilling program with an overall focus on positively impacting our near-term mine life and identifying the next million ounces of resources outside the Expansion Case PEA area."
