Vancouver, BC -- September 21, 2017 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- MGX Minerals Inc. (MGX or the Company) (CSE: XMG / FKT: 1MG / OTC: MGXMF) is pleased to announce that it has been provided with an update regarding ongoing drilling at its Case Lake Lithium Joint Venture with Power Metals Corp.
Drilling has successfully intersected significant mineralization at the Companys Case Lake Lithium Joint Venture. The Case Lake drill target area consists of a pegmatite dyke swarm: North, Main and South Dykes as well as multiple unnamed pegmatite dykes. Drill hole PWM-17-08 intersected 35.22m of continuous spodumene pegmatite as part of the Main Dyke with very coarse-grained spodumene crystals up to 10 cm long.
A total of 12 drill holes have been completed to date. With the exception of hole 3, all drill holes intersected spodumene bearing pegmatite (Table 1, Figure 7). Assays are pending. The drill program targeted downdip extension of North, Main and South Dykes in an area of known mineralization, strike extension and in previously untested areas such as the South Dyke. Drill core has been split and shipped with assays now pending.
Highlights include:
Drill holes PWM-17-08, 09 and 10 tested the up and down dip extension of the Main Dyke.
Drill holes PWM-17-01, 02 and 03 intersected the Main and South Dykes as part of the western extension of the strike length of both Dykes.
Drill holes PWM-17-04 and 05 tested downdip extension of North and Main Dykes downdip of historic hole DDH-5.
Drill holes PWM-17-06 and 07 tested the downdip extension of the Main Dyke downdip from historic hole DDH-2. Drill hole PWM-17-06 intersected 9 m of spodumene pegmatite.
Drill holes PWM-17-11 and 12 tested the eastern extension of the Main Dyke along strike. These holes intersected multiple pegmatite dykes hosted by metasedimentary rocks.

Case Lake Property is located in Steele and Case townships, 80 km east of Cochrane, NE Ontario close to the Ontario-Quebec border. The Case Lake pegmatite swarm consists of five dykes: North, Main, South, East and Northeast Dykes. Both the North and Main Dykes have spodumene-rich zones (muscovite-K-feldspar-quartz-spodumene-albite) and albitic aplite border zones. Spodumene is absent in the beryl-type South Dyke and the potassic pegmatite East Dyke. The Northeast Dyke contains very coarse-grained spodumene. MGX currently maintains a 20% working interest in the project with a right to acquire up to 35% of the project and an additional 3 other Ontario Lithium properties controlled by Power Metals.
