West Red Lake Gold (WRLG.V) High Grade Drill Results Confirm Geological Modeling at Rowan

Vancouver, British Columbia –News Direct– West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd.

October 13, 2023 – TheNewswire – Global Stocks News – In a press release dated October 11, 2023, West Red Lake Gold Mines (TSXV:WRLG) (OTC:WRLGF) reported additional drill results from its 100% owned Rowan Property located in the prolific Red Lake Gold District of Northwestern Ontario, Canada.

The company’s flagship asset – The Madsen Gold Mine – is debt free, fully permitted, with a brand-new 800+ tonne per day mill, a tailings and water treatment facility. [1.]

Their 100% wholly owned Rowan Gold Project is the company’s other asset, located approximately 15 kilometers as the crow flies from the Madsen mill. WRLG believes there are synergies between the high-grade resources at Rowan and the Madsen mill.

October 11, 2023 Drilling Highlights:

  • Hole RLG-23-166B Intersected 2 metres @ 45.20 g/t Au, from 297m to 299m; and 4 metres @ 6.78 g/t Au, from 191m to 195m.
  • Hole RLG-23-164 Intersected 0.5 metres @ 101.60 g/t Au, from 204.5m to 205m; and 1.35 metres @ 33.47 g/t Au, from 131m to 132.35m.
  • Hole RLG-23-159 Intersected 2.3 metres @ 12.81 g/t Au, from 262.85m to 265.15m; and 2.1 metres @ 12.43 g/t Au, from 247.4m to 249.5 m.
  • Hole RLG-23-169 Intersected 1.5m @ 14.61 g/t Au, from 506m to 507.5m, Including 0.5m @ 42.62 g/t Au from 506m to 506.5m.

WRLG CEO Shane Williams has designed, built and operated mines (open pit and underground) in Greece, Turkey and Canada – for Skeena Resources, Eldorado Gold and Rio Tinto.  He has a stellar track record of moving mineral assets into production.

“We are seeing continuation of the mineralization at Rowan,” Williams told Guy Bennett, CEO of Global Stocks News (GSN). “From Veins 100 and 101 in particular, we are getting good hits. My geological team is excited about the potential of these veins as we move forward.”

“Following on the heels of the highest-grade intercept ever drilled across the Rowan Property, the team successfully intercepted what is believed to be the same high-grade zone approximately 80 metres down-dip,” stated Williams.

“This represents one of the deepest holes drilled within the high-grade East Zone and bodes well for future expansion opportunity at Rowan as the team continues to extend this highly prospective mineralized vein zone at depth and along strike.”

“The drilling completed at the Rowan Mine Target in 2023 has been focused on validating historical data across the Inferred Resource, and also infilling apparent gaps in the analytical data set which was a product of very selective sampling techniques implemented during previous drilling campaigns,” stated WRLG.

“Assay results received from the 2023 drilling program continue to confirm our thesis that quartz veining and gold mineralization continue at depth and along strike, with grades consistent with, or higher than those outlined in the current Inferred Mineral Resource which remains open in all directions”.

“For example, the 100 Vein Zone – which is the furthest north vein currently modeled within the overall Rowan vein corridor – was previously interpreted to be a lower grade portion of the block model. Recent drilling has confirmed that higher grades are present within the 100 Vein Zone below 150 metre elevation, suggesting that gold grades are increasing at depth within this zone which is a trend that has been observed elsewhere in the Red Lake district”.

Drilling at the Rowan Mine Target area will continue with an emphasis on infill and expansion of the existing high-grade mineral resource.

“Originally, Rowan started as an early-stage exploration project,” Williams told GSN. “It was a narrow vein, high grade deposit. As we advance the drill program, we’re getting deeper into the system. It’s opening up and exceeding our initial expectations. We’ve drilled good holes higher in the deposit.  The October 11, 2023 press release reports good gold values deeper down.”.

“We are seeing continuation of mineralization,” continued Williams. “We believe it is growing into a bigger deposit. We no longer think of it as a small satellite deposit, but potentially a significant feed source for our Madsen project.”

A total of 42 diamond drill holes for 15,772m have been completed so far in 2023 at the Rowan Mine target. Fire and metallic screen assays have been returned for 35 out of 42 holes completed, with 2 holes having partial assay results and 5 holes pending assays and QAQC.

“I have enjoyed working on greenfield projects, but my deepest expertise and passion is building bridges between advanced exploration and production,” Williams told GSN. “Financing, permitting, mine design, mine optimisation – that’s my bread and butter. We have a assembled a world class team.  That is what we are all focused on: putting the Madsen Gold Project back into production.”

Grizzly Reports the First Sample Results for the New Work at the Midway, Imperial and Copper Mountain Areas of the Greenwood, BC Precious and Battery Metals Project

Edmonton, Alberta–(Newsfile Corp. – October 12, 2023) – Grizzly Discoveries Inc. (TSXV: GZD) (FSE: G6H) (OTCQB: GZDIF) (“Grizzly” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that after the Okanogan fire danger has subsided that geological crews are back at the Rock Creek camp and have re-commenced work at Midway, Copper Mountain and the Imperial target areas within the Greenwood Precious and Battery Metals Project.

Highlights

  • Two new showings identified near the historical Midway Mine including up 5.64 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) from a showing 400 m to the north of Midway and up to 4.19 g/t Au from a grab sample collected about 375 m to the west of the Midway Mine. At least 6 new areas with anomalous gold (> 100 ppb Au) or silver (Ag) in soils have been identified at Midway with follow up work continuing to be conducted.
  • A total of 50 new rock grab and rock chip samples collected from the historical Imperial Mine area, with 6 samples returning greater than 1 g/t Au up to 12.1 g/t Au and 8 samples returning greater than 40 g/t silver (Ag) up to 469 g/t Ag. The samples define a targeted strike length of over 170 m for future drilling. The samples yield significant amounts of lead (Pb), zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) with several samples yielding greater than 2% combined base metals.
  • The Mabel Jenny Trend at the Copper Mountain area continues to yield excellent results including 9 of 14 rock grab and chip samples collected this year from this new zone yielding greater than 1 g/t Au up to 13.75 g/t Au (along with up to 61.9 g/t Ag) and up to 0.475% Cu and 2.93% Zn along a new logging road cut over a strike length of more than 400 m when combined with anomalous samples from 2022.

Brian Testo, President and CEO of Grizzly Discoveries, stated: “We are excited with the new results to date and for the start of the 2023 drilling program, which will pursue a number of high grade gold – silver showings and historical mines along with significant battery metal prospects in our current 160,000+ acre land holdings in the Greenwood District. We have barely scratched the surface in terms of exploration!“

Exploration Updates 2023

Drilling will initially be focused at the historical Midway Mine (Figure 2) but the intent is that eventually the Company will complete new drilling this fall, and then in 2024 at Midway, Imperial, Copper Mountain (Mable Jenny, Coronation and Prince of Wales targets), and potentially the Sappho areas, depending upon the timing of the receipt of drill permits, additional funding and weather permitting. We eagerly await drilling permits from the BC Ministry of Energy Mines and Petroleum Resources.

The Company is awaiting land use permits for conducting drilling and trenching at the Midway Mine area as well as drilling at Copper Mountain, Imperial and potentially the Sappho target areas (Figure 1). The permit applications were submitted initially in January-February and the Company is now awaiting final comments and any required conditions or changes resulting from the recently completed 30 day notification period.

An extensive rock and soil sampling program along with new geological mapping during 2023 has been conducted in preparation for drilling this fall. The work has yielded two new showings identified near the historical Midway Mine including up 5.64 g/t Au from a showing 400 m to the north of the Midway Mine and a second showing along an apparent fault structure with 4.19 g/t Au from a grab sample collected about 375 m to the west of the Midway Mine (Figure 2). At least 6 new areas with anomalous gold (> 100 ppb Au), silver or copper in soils has been identified across the Midway Mine Property with follow up work continuing to be conducted (Figure 2).

To date, gold-silver-base metal mineralization appears to be related to veins and stockworks at contacts between altered ultramafic-carbonate rocks (listwanites) in contact with diorite intrusions in a complex structural setting, with the intersections of structures playing a key role in the localization of alteration.

At the historical Imperial Mine area, a total of 50 new rock grab and rock chip samples were collected from the Imperial showing area, with 6 samples returning greater than 1 (g/t) gold (Au) up to 12.1 g/t Au and 8 samples returning greater than 40 g/t silver (Ag) up to 469 g/t Ag. The samples define a targeted north – south strike length of over 170 m for future drilling (Figure 3). The samples show significant amounts of Pb, Zn and Cu with several samples yielding greater than 2% combined base metals. Geological mapping is in progress and ground geophysical surveys are planned prior to conducting drilling at this target.

The Copper Mountain area continues to yield excellent results from a number of showings including the Coronation and Prince of Wales historical mines along with the Mabel Jenny area. A total of 9 of 14 rock grab and chip samples collected this year from a new zone discovered late in 2022 at the Mabel Jenny area has yielded greater than 1 g/t Au up to 13.75 g/t Au (along with up to 61.9 g/t Ag) and up to 0.475% Cu and 2.93% Zn (Figure 4). The discovery was made along a new logging road cut late in 2022 and appears to demonstrate quartz vein stockwork mineralization in an altered diorite over a strike length of more than 400 m when combined with anomalous samples from 2022.

Geological and prospecting crews have re-commenced prospecting, geological mapping, rock and soil sampling within the Greenwood Project area and have conducted an initial pass at the new mineral claim area staked August 1, 2023 (See Company News Release dated September 7, 2023). A number of existing showings and parts or extensions to known showings have been acquired with the staking of the new mineral claims including but not limited to Marshall Lake, Sylvester K, the Great Laxey, Eholt and lands adjacent to and surrounding the historical Phoenix Mine. Results from the initial sampling programs on these new claims will be released as they are received.

The geological and prospecting crew has made several discoveries of sulphide, quartz vein zones and skarn on the new claims (Figure 5). Sulphide showings associated with skarn at Marshall Lake (Figure 5) hosted in Triassic Brooklyn Formation sedimentary rocks including limestone that has been intruded by diorite. The showings have been trenched and bulk sampled in the past (1960’s to 1970’s) yielding significant copper, silver and gold. Little to no modern exploration has been performed at the Marshall Lake target as well as a number of other showings in the Brooklyn sequence such as the Great Laxey.

To date, more than 3,300 soil samples and 600 rock samples have been collected from the Midway, Copper Mountain, Imperial and Sappho target areas and have been submitted to ALS Global Laboratories as well as an initial set of samples from the new mineral claims. Ground geophysical surveys will be performed in September in order to be ready for the 2023 drilling campaign.

The goal is to have a pipeline of high priority precious metal and battery metal targets that are all permitted and ready for a long 2023 and 2024 drilling campaign in order to prioritize these assets into those that can deliver future mineral resources with additional drilling, eventually leading to some form of economic studies and scenarios that might be able to take advantage of local toll treating opportunities that exist in the Greenwood – Republic region.

ADDITIONAL LANDS ACQUIRED

The Company has signed an option agreement dated October 10, 2023 with Mr. Daniel Hurd of Peachland, British Columbia to purchase the mineral rights to 761.25 hectares (1,881 acres) in six (6) mineral claims in the Greenwood Mining District (“Midway-Beaverdell Option Agreement”).

These claims represent adjacent lands with some historical showings that represent additions that strengthen our land positions in these areas.

Under the terms of the Midway-Beaverdell Option Agreement, the Company may earn a 100% interest in the Midway-Beaverdell claims by paying $7,500 in cash and issuing 150,000 common shares of Grizzly by the third anniversary date of the agreement. Mr. Hurd retains a 1% Net Smelter Royalty and the right to any quarriable rocks. The issuance of common shares of Grizzly under the Midway-Beaverdell Option Agreement is subject to acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange.

QUALITY ASSURANCE AND CONTROL

Rock and soil samples were analyzed at ALS Global Laboratories (Geochemistry Division) in Vancouver, Canada (an ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited facility). Gold was assayed using a fire assay with atomic emission spectrometry and gravimetric finish when required (+10 g/t Au). Rock grab and rock chip samples from outcrop/bedrock are selective by nature and may not be representative of the mineralization hosted on the project.

The sampling program was undertaken by Company personnel under the direction of Michael B. Dufresne, M.Sc., P.Geol., P.Geo. A secure chain of custody is maintained in transporting and storing of all samples.

The technical content of this news release and the Company’s technical disclosure has been reviewed and approved by Michael B. Dufresne, M. Sc., P. Geol., P.Geo., who is the Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

Silver Bullet Announces Interception of Targeted Higher-Grade Silver Zone

Burlington, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – October 11, 2023) – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (OTCQB: SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announces the Company has intercepted the targeted mineralized zone at the Buckeye Mine in Arizona (the “Zone”). Based upon historical data, management expects the Zone to contain higher-grade silver mineralization. Confirmation will depend upon multiple rounds of sampling.

To target the Zone, SBMI has been working from its field team’s intensive knowledge of the area, assay data from historical drill holes drilled in 1969, mapping carried out in and around 1969, informal reports generated from such holes and mapping, actual field results as SBMI’s team drifted along the vein behind the Treasure Room, and the results of a recent LIDAR study. (As previously disclosed, the Company’s information related to those historical drill holes, the historical assaying of them, and the informal reports, do not meet NI43-101 standards and cannot be disclosed.

In its September 9, 2023 press release, and in other materials dating back to March, 2022, the Company advised, “The team now continues to drift along the vein towards a targetted area.” Management expects assay results from current and pending sampling should confirm the Zone has been hit, located where management believed it would be, based upon historical and current data. The Company is especially pleased that the historical data upon which it relied, has confirmed to be the actual location of the Zone, and can be further relied upon (see photo of targeted zone with iron oxide on right, vein and water course on left indicating fault and of the significant mineralization encountered in the zone).

https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8464/183675_sbmimage2.jpg

In particular, SBMI drifted 708 feet from the portal, drifted behind the Treasure Room (which is not yet safe to work in), blasted through harder-than-expected host rock, and earlier this week drilled and blasted into the Zone approximately 30 feet from the projected drill holes left by a previous optionee in 1969. The assay data from those historical drill holes informed SBMI’s decision to target this zone; however, none were generally disclosed to the public. Please see the caution above.

SBMI plans to continue mining along the vein, refine a plan to maximize recovery of the metals from the Zone, and begin shipping mineralized material from the Zone to its 100%-owned mill in Globe, Arizona for processing. Multiple rounds of samples from the vein and the Zone will be collected and then assayed at SBMI’s 100%-owned assay facility. SBMI also intends to send samples to an independent third party lab for confirmation analysis and for analysis for other metals.

The Company continues to seek further data to inform its knowledge of local structures, the vein and the Zone. The Company recently contracted a Ground Penetrating Radar System study to outline the potential size and location of the Zone. The contractor for the study has advised it will use an OKM Future Walkabout 2003/5 ground penetrating radar unit that can detect historical tunnels, shafts and drifts, as well as native gold, native silver and other metals up to 60 feet deep.

The contractor has advised the company that the ground penetrating radar unit uses an electronic pulse method to select an anomaly in the Zone such as natural features, a formation of strata, hollow spaces, level groundwater, buried objects, pipes, tanks, boxes and other targets. The Company intends to further engage the contractor to help determine the overall extent of the Zone, the vein system and potential parallel structures.

The mine road was recently bladed in part by the United States Forest Service as part of its firefighting efforts. The mill has been test run, the fuel and water supply maximized, and the mill crew and assay teams are on standby. In conclusion, pending the sampling results, the mine and the mill are ready to be put into steady production.

Mr. Robert G. Komarechka, P.Geo., an independent consultant, has reviewed and verified SBMI’s work referred to herein, and is the Qualified Person for this release.

SBMI also announces that MNP LLP (the “Successor Auditor”) have been appointed as the company’s new auditor effective September 15, 2023, replacing Grant Thornton LLP, (the “Former Auditor”).

Reporting notices prepared in accordance with National Instrument 51-102 (“NI 51-102”) by the Former Auditor, the Successor Auditor and the Company have been filed on SEDAR.

There are no disagreements or consultations (as those terms are defined in NI 51-102) in connection with the change of auditor nor have there been any reservations or modifications in the Former Auditor’s reports on the Company’s financial statements relating to the period during which it was auditor.

No “reportable event” as defined in NI 51-102, has occurred in connection with the audit of the most recently completed fiscal year of the Company, nor any period from the most recently completed fiscal years of the Company for which Grant Thornton LLP issued an audit report and the date of the Notice.

The termination of Grant Thornton LLP, and appointment of MNP LLP, as auditor of the Company were considered and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.

Rover Metals Adds 2,400 Acres to Let’s Go Lithium Project, NV, USA

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 5, 2023 / Rover Metals Corp. (TSXV:ROVR)(OTCQB:ROVMF)(FSE:4XO) (“Rover” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that it has added 2,400 acres of new claims to its Let’s Go Lithium (“LGL”) project, bringing the total project size to approximately 8,300 acres.

LGL Project Expansion

Management of the Company, working with McGinley and Associates, dba UES (“UES”), identified additional prospective ground contiguous to the existing claim block this summer. Further to the Company’s news release of September 7, 2023, Culter, and Ingraffia prospected and sampled the new claim area as part of this summer’s expanded Phase 1 Exploration Program. Multiple hectorite-like clay outcrops and high-grade lithium surface samples were encountered in the staking area. The Company believes that the project expansion will take advantage of a deeper hydrologic water flow system in the area. Management will be including the new claims into its Plan of Operations submission to the Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) which it plans to file in short order.

Judson Culter, CEO at Rover Metals, states, “The addition of 2,400 acres to the LGL project gives us the flexibility of abandoning certain existing mining claims that border the ACEC boundary of Ash Meadows. We never intended to mine or develop near to Ash Meadows, and moving the core of the LGL project further away from Ash Meadows sends a clear message that Rover is committed to developing the project in a manner that is sustainable for the surrounding area. UES, are helping Rover to ensure that there will be no impact to the critical water tables in the Amargosa basin. Rover and UES have obtained a copy of the environmental assessment study that the neighbouring mine, operated by Lhoist North America, is operating under. Management at Rover feels confident that sustainable lithium mining can be supported in the Amargosa Valley.”

A Call for Battery Recycling Partnerships and Joint Ventures

The eastern Amargosa Valley has been slated for solar farm energy development by the BLM. Solar energy, in addition to the existing hydro energy infrastructure in the area, allows for new development opportunities like EV raw materials battery recycling. Rover is seeking inbound requests to partner with recycling technology companies. Please contact info@rovermetals.com with inquiries. The LGL project is a one and half hour drive from the city of Las Vegas, one of the fastest growing cities in the U.S.

Dolly Varden Silver Energy Junior Mining Precious Metals

Dolly Varden is Still Silver

Bob Moriarty
Archives
Oct 3, 2023

Thirteen months ago at the first of September of 2022 silver hit a DSI (Daily Sentiment Indicator) of 9 for three days in a row. I said it was a bottom for silver. Stocks continued lower the month of September but my call on September 1st was correct. The DSI had correctly timed the bottom of silver to the day.

I’ll say it again. Dolly Varden (DV-V) is silver. Dolly Varden was $.355 at the low at the end of September last year and it went to $1.25 a tiny six months later. Dolly Varden is going to do exactly the same thing again. The crash I predicted nine weeks ago is here. It has started in a different form than I anticipated when on September 20th it was reported that the Fed Funds rate was going to stay higher for longer. This time it is shooting treasury rates and the dollar higher and forcing weak hands to dump silver and gold just like it did back in 2008. Treasury rates are going to continue to climb with the dollar index until the system blows sky high. Soon everyone is going to realize there is no soft landing coming. Investors will be looking for a safe haven and the only safe haven in town is the metals.

Dolly Varden is an interesting company in that it is 93% owned by insiders and large funds leaving a tiny float of only 7%. Fury owns 23% in exchange for Homestake. Hecla maintains a 10% interest as does Eric Sprott. Various institutions own another 50%. The shares are down 50% from a high in April without anything bad happening to the company. I make a point in my books that if nothing else changes and the price goes down of a stock you really like, that’s a good thing.

The company has a resource today of 140 million Ag EQ ounces based on the 43-101 released in 2019. It’s half gold and half silver. Since that now ancient resource, Dolly has drilled another 100,000 meters. Results from 40,000 meters of drilling will be released soon from over 100 holes. Dolly is in both the SIL and SILJ indexes which is why institutions are so heavily invested in the company. If they want to show a silver side, they pretty much have to own Dolly.

The silver intercepts continue to be world class. The last press release showing results from the Wolf Vein show 381 g/t Ag over 29.0 meters. At the surface the Wolf Vein was only 9 meters but 75 meters down it widened to 29 meters. That will add a lot of ounces.

Dolly Varden is an advertiser and I participated in the last private placement. Do your own due diligence, of course I am biased.

West Red Lake Gold Provides Project Updates and Outlines Strategic Path Forward

West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd.
West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd.

Rowan and Madsen Projects Location Map

Rowan and Madsen Projects Location Map
Rowan and Madsen Projects Location Map

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 03, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd. (“West Red Lake Gold” or “WRLG” or the “Company”) (TSXV:WRLG) is pleased to provide a project update and an outlook on project advancement in the near to medium term for the Madsen Mine and Rowan Mine projects located in the prolific Red Lake Gold District of Northwestern, Ontario, Canada.

PATH FORWARD

  • Additional 35,000 metre (“m”) drill program planned for Rowan Property to commence in early 2024, adding second drill and to include systematic in-fill drilling and expansion drilling of high-grade zones and begin testing high priority drill targets at Mt. Jamie, Red Summit and the NT Zone.
  • Complete initial Preliminary Economic Assessment (the “PEA”) on entire portfolio of Properties by Q2 2024 (based on drilling cutoff date of Oct 1, 2023)
  • Complete updated Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) at Rowan by Q4 2024 (to include all anticipated drilling up to Q3 2024)
  • Complete 3,000 m drill program at Wedge, aimed to expand deposit and complete MRE by Q4 2024
  • Complete 38,000 m underground drill program at Madsen Mine by Q4 2024
  • Complete 3,200 m of underground development by Q4 2024 for access and required infrastructure to support underground drilling.
  • Develop a connecting ramp between the East and West declines at Madsen to increase waste hauling capacity from the West ramp which previously crossed two public roads, further reducing operating costs.
  • Put the Madsen Mine back into production in 2025.

Shane Williams, President, and CEO commented: “The team has done a fantastic job since the beginning of 2023, achieving many major milestones in the relatively short life of the re-vamped West Red Lake Gold Mines. In a difficult market we have managed to complete key acquisitions, raise a considerable amount of capital to fund our growing ambitions and assembled a team of noteworthy professionals with a track record of success at both the management and board levels. We have enjoyed a tremendous amount of exploration success via the drill-bit at our Rowan project which we hope to replicate at some very exciting targets in and around our newly acquired Madsen Mine. The coming year will be a very active time for the Company as we lay the groundwork to execute on our vision to put the Madsen Mine back into production and continue to unlock significant value for our shareholders.”

ROWAN PROPERTY

The 2023 drilling program at Rowan has been incredibly successful thus far. As such, the originally planned 17,000 m of drilling at the Rowan Mine target was expanded to 25,000 m and the team is on track to complete all planned drilling at Rowan.

Our understanding of the mineralization at Rowan has been greatly enhanced and results continue to confirm internal models and our exploration strategy continues to be validated by the results achieved. The mineralized set of veins at Rowan continues to deliver high-grade gold assays over significant widths that are in-line with or exceed those modelled in the December 2022 resource estimate. A few notable highlights from 2023 drilling at Rowan include:

  • Hole RLG-23-163B Intersected 8.3 m @ 70.80 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold (“Au”) from 387 m to 395.3 m. This interval also included 0.5 m @ 1,120.19 g/t Au and represents the highest-grade intercept ever drilled at the Rowan project.
  • Hole RLG-23-149B Intersected 4.0 m @ 50.52 g/t Au, from 299 m to 303 m.
  • Hole RLG-23-153 Intersected 2.0 m @ 66.66 g/t Au, from 235 m to 237 m
  • Hole RLG-23-134 Intersected 8.0 m @ 10.34 g/t Au, from 71 m to 79 m
  • Hole RLG-23-156B Intersected 3.11 m @ 21.84 g/t Au, from 275 m to 278.11 m
  • Hole RLG-23-150 Intersected 4.2 m @ 15.40 g/t Au, from 384 m to 388.2 m
  • Hole RLG-23-154 Intersected 10.1 m @ 6.27 g/t Au, from 214.9 m to 225 m

Our strategy at Rowan for the remainder of 2023 will be to continue increasing confidence in the 827,462 ounces (“oz”) Inferred resource through systematic in-fill drilling. We will also look to step out and expand the Rowan resource by targeting mineralization outside of the current model and testing the down-dip and down-plunge extensions of the high-grade zones.

We plan on staying aggressive with the exploration strategy at Rowan in 2024, which will include the addition of a second drill early in the year to continue advancing the Rowan Mine target, and to begin testing high priority drill targets at Mt. Jamie, Red Summit, and the NT Zone. An additional 35,000 m of exploration drilling is planned for the Rowan Property in 2024. An updated mineral resource estimate for Rowan is anticipated to be completed in Q4 2024 and will include all drilling through Q3 2024.

It is the Company’s belief that potential synergies could exist between the high-grade Rowan deposit and our flagship Madsen Mine. Early indications suggest that the gold mineralization at Rowan could be amenable to gravity separation. As such, the Company has initiated a metallurgical study at Rowan to begin evaluating this opportunity, as well as a geotechnical study to better characterize the rock mass properties within the mineralized vein zones at Rowan.

Management maintains a high degree of confidence in the merits of the Rowan deposit and has initiated necessary baseline environmental and archaeological assessments to begin moving the Rowan project towards an Advanced Exploration Permit status – this permit will be required prior to collection of a bulk sample at Rowan.

MADSEN SATELLITE TARGETS AND REGIONAL EXPLORATION

After successfully completing the acquisition of the Madsen Mine the exploration team undertook a detailed review of the property. Several promising targets were identified and prioritized with the Wedge target emerging as our highest priority target.

Previous drilling highlights from the Wedge target include.

  • Hole PG17-486 Intersected 10.33 m @ 24.94 g/t Au, from 16.67 m to 27 m
  • Hole PG17-467 Intersected 16.6 m @ 17.49 g/t Au, from 11.45 m to 28 m
  • Hole PG17-482 Intersected 14.4 m @ 8.35 g/t Au, from 28 m to 42.4 m
  • Hole PG19-643 Intersected 1 m @ 108.5 g/t Au, from 103 m to 104 m

Surface exploration and drilling began in early September and the initial 3,000 m program is almost complete. Drilling is primarily focused on extending the high-grade zones defined at the Wedge Target. This new drilling will be used to support an updated Mineral Resource Estimate at Wedge to be completed by Q4 2024. Wedge currently hosts an Indicated resource of 56,100 oz of gold grading 5.6 g/t Au and an Inferred resource of 78,700 oz of gold grading 5.7 g/t Au1. The target is 2 km southwest of the Madsen Mine and is adjacent to the past-producing Starratt-Olsen Mine which historically processed 823,554 tonnes grading 6.16 g/t Au for ~163 koz of gold2. Drilling conducted at the Wedge target and other satellite targets near mine will be incorporated into an updated mineral resource estimate. We anticipate the update to be completed by Q4 2024.

A detailed and systematic review of all available exploration and geologic data for the Madsen property has also been initiated. This information will be digitized and compiled into working GIS and 3D modeling project files to allow for target ranking and prioritization ahead of the 2024 season. Most of the ground at Madsen remains underexplored and our geology team is already seeing a lot of opportunity for new discoveries across the district.

MADSEN PROJECT

Underground diamond drilling at Madsen has recommenced. A 38,000 m program has been designed for the first 12 months and will be focused on infill and expansion of the high-grade portions of the Austin and South Austin zones. We anticipate this drilling to define an inventory of high-confidence ore-grade (6-7 g/t Au) resource to serve as a starting point for a future restart plan. Additionally, underground development work is taking place at Madsen which will provide our team with the necessary access and infrastructure required to support the underground drilling program.

Mine design and scheduling for the first 12 months have been completed with subsequent phases to be determined based on the findings of the initial underground drilling and exploration program. The first development cuts have been taken at Madsen to provide access to the areas where infill drilling has already been planned. Mine design and scheduling consider the requirements of the operations and geology teams to ensure a full collaborative approach to advancing the project in a safe, efficient, and timely manner. Over the next 12 months the Company will complete approximately 3,200 m of underground development to support engineering and geological programs. We do not intend to conduct any stoping or commercial extraction for the next 12-15 months until the re-start strategy is significantly de-risked both technically and financially.

The Company will also develop a connecting ramp between the East and West declines. The current waste hauling at Madsen from the West ramp crosses two public roads (into Madsen town). This haul route is only allowed to be used during daylight hours. A connecting ramp would increase the number of hours the team can haul waste as well as eliminate double handling, thus reducing operating costs. It will also provide for increased safety for the surrounding community due to reduced traffic.

Additional and ongoing activities at the Madsen Mine will include, but are not limited to, shaft dewatering, water treatment and environmental monitoring.

MINERAL RESOURCE UPDATE AND PEA

The West Red Lake team is committed to a timely and successful restart that will maximize value for all our stakeholders. As such the team has engaged SRK Consulting and put in place the necessary programs required to complete a Preliminary Economic Assessment. The PEA will look to unlock and deliver robust economics by incorporating the Company’s entire portfolio of Red Lake assets which is made up of our Rowan Project and Madsen Mine with its accompanying satellite deposits.

Management firmly believes this approach is in-line with its vision for the Red Lake district and a potential Hub and Spoke model utilizing the Madsen processing facilities provides plenty of optionality and opportunity to greatly bolster the project economics.

West Red Lake intends to deliver this initial PEA by the end of Q2 2024. To achieve that milestone by the anticipated deadline the decision was made to establish an Oct 1, 2023, cut-off date for 2023 Rowan drilling data to be incorporated into this PEA. As such, the updated Rowan mineral resource estimate included in the upcoming PEA will be focused primarily on the high-grade East Zone, which has been the focus of drilling at Rowan so far in 2023 and is envisioned as the first area to be mined when production from Rowan commences. The PEA will then be followed up by a more comprehensive MRE update for Rowan by Q4 2024, which will include all drilling at Rowan through Q3 2024.

RECAP OF FIRST THREE QUARTERS OF 2023

  • Completed the successful acquisition of 100% of the Rowan Gold Project from Evolution Mining
  • Appointment of new CEO, Shane Williams, to lead the Company.
  • Strengthened Senior Management Team with addition of a new CFO and new VPs of Exploration, Technical Services, Corporate Development, and Community Relations.
  • Increased board strength with key appointees including Tony Makuch, Duncan Middlemiss, and Hugh Agro.
  • Successfully completed the acquisition of our flagship Madsen Mine asset while concurrently raising C$ 25M.

Blackwolf Drills Abundant Visible Gold at The Newly Acquired Harry Project in B.C.’s Golden Triangle

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 3, 2023 / Blackwolf Copper and Gold Ltd. (“Blackwolf“, or the “Company“) (TSXV:BWCG),(OTC PINK:BWCGF) is pleased to announce that it has completed its initial drilling program targeting the Swann Zone on the Harry Property, recently acquired as part of the Optimum Ventures transaction. Seven drill holes were completed from two drill pads for a total of 1,740 meters of drilling, with each hole encountering significant mineralization. The sixth drill hole encountered coarse visible gold, including an approximately 10cm long streak at roughly 140 meters depth. This drill hole was approximately 250 meters from a 2021 diamond drill hole completed by Optimum Ventures at the Swann Zone which encountered 15.64 meters of 1437 g/t Silver Equivalent* (3.1 g/t Au, 433.4 g/t Ag, 0.60% Cu, 7.17% pb and 8.74% Zn) beginning at 8.75 meters depth. The Harry Property is located in the Golden Triangle, northwest of Stewart BC; it has road access and is situated between the past-producing Scottie Gold Mine and the historic Premier Gold Project, currently in re-development. Assays are pending and initial results are expected in the coming weeks.

The Swann Zone is a northwest trending structural corridor, typified by multiple, overlapping phases of quartz and sulphide veins. The sixth drill hole encountered coarse, visible gold in one of these vein phases. Based on previous surface sampling and limited drilling by Optimum Ventures, these different vein phases can host significant gold, silver and/or base metal-rich mineralization that can include pyrite, galena, sphalerite, tetrahedrite and other sulphosalt minerals. These multiphase, structurally complex and evolved metallogenic systems have similarities toother high-grade gold-silver deposits in the Golden Triangle such as Brucejack and Premier.

EMX Provides an Update for the Hardshell Royalty Property Included Within the Hermosa Project in Arizona

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – October 2, 2023) – EMX Royalty Corporation (NYSE American: EMX) (TSXV: EMX) (FSE: 6E9) (the “Company” or “EMX”) is pleased to provide an update for EMX’s Hardshell royalty property, which is part of South32 Limited’s (“South32”) Hermosa Project in southeast Arizona. Recent drill results from the Peake prospect, which is partially covered by the Hardshell royalty, include the best intercept to date in hole HDS-813 reported as 139 meters (1302.7-1441.7 m) averaging 1.88% copper, 0.51% lead, 0.34% zinc, and 52 g/t silver, with a subinterval of 58.2 meters averaging 3.1% copper, 0.6% lead, 0.24% zinc, 74g/t silver and 0.015% molybdenum (true width not reported)1. EMX retains a 2% net smelter return (“NSR”) royalty on Hardshell that is not capped nor subject to buy down.

South32’s Hermosa Project is comprised of the a) Taylor polymetallic (Zn-Pb-Ag) development project adjacent to the north of Hardshell with carbonate replacement deposit (“CRD”) mineralization that projects towards EMX’s royalty footprint, b) the Peake Cu-Pb-Zn-Ag skarn prospect, which as currently outlined is mostly covered by EMX’s royalty ground, and c) the Clark manganese manto deposit to the east of the royalty footprint.

In addition to the encouraging drill results at Peake, other recent advances reported by South32 include the designation of Hermosa as the first mining project given FAST-41 status by the US Federal Permitting Improvement Steering Council to facilitate the potential to supply designated critical minerals (i.e., zinc and manganese), and an updated JORC mineral resource estimate for Taylor to support ongoing feasibility work. Although Taylor (and Clark) occur outside of EMX’s royalty property boundary, the Hermosa Project’s overall prospectivity is attracting capitalized exploration of US$23 million to test priority targets, including further drilling at Peake and other prospects2.

EMX’s Hardshell royalty was organically generated by the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Bronco Creek Exploration Inc. (“BCE”). BCE recognized the alteration and mineralization zoning patterns within the district, and staked prospective open ground. Hardshell was optioned in 2015 for a 2% NSR retained royalty interest. The Hermosa Project, including Hardshell, was acquired by South32 in 2018. Since then, South32 has steadily advanced Hermosa, which includes the step-out exploration drilling that continues to delineate mineralization at Peake. The recognition of mineralization at Peake highlights the discovery optionality of EMX’s Hardshell royalty property.

Discussion of Drill Results. South32’s drilling at Peake is delineating a series of stacked horizons that have a general north-westerly dip of 30 degrees and host disseminated to semi-massive sulphide mineralization. According to South32 “the upper and lower extents of the horizons tend to have polymetallic mineralisation with the central component dominated by copper sulphides, predominantly chalcopyrite. Mineralisation within the stacked profile is approximately 130 m thick, for an approximate 450 m strike and 300 m width.”

The Peake prospect is currently characterized by 17 diamond drill holes, with intercepts from the most recent four holes summarized in Table 1, and the previous 13 holes reported in EMX’s news release dated June 21, 2022. The recent intercepts in Table 1 have been reported at a 0.2% copper cutoff by South32, reflecting the early-stage nature of exploration and evaluation of the Peake prospect.

Hermosa Project and Hardshell Royalty Property Overview. South32’s Hermosa Project, located in the Patagonia mining district of southeastern Arizona, includes CRD sulfide (i.e., Taylor) and oxide manto (i.e., Clark) deposits (which are not covered by EMX’s Hardshell royalty), as well as the Peake skarn prospect (partially covered by EMX’s Hardshell royalty). EMX’s Hardshell 2% NSR royalty property consists of 16 unpatented federal lode mining claims. South32 has stated that it (refer to FY 2023 Financial Results and Outlook and July 24, 2023 news release) is continuing to follow up on Peake’s exploration potential, which is open in several directions.

The ongoing delineation of the Peake prospect by South32 represents the potential to create significant value for the Company’s Hardshell royalty property. EMX looks forward to South32’s continued exploration success at Hardshell, as well as from the greater Hermosa Project.

Comments on Adjacent and Nearby Projects. The adjacent and nearby projects, which include the Taylor and Clark deposits, provide geological context for the Peake prospect, which is partially covered by EMX’s Hardshell royalty claim block. However, this is not necessarily indicative that the Hardshell royalty claim block represents similar styles or tonnages of mineralization as the Taylor deposit, nor a similar style of mineralization as the Clark deposit.

Qualified Person. Michael P. Sheehan, CPG, a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and employee of the Company, has reviewed, verified and approved the disclosure of the technical information contained in this news release.

Goldshore Summer Field Program Identifies Five New Gold Trends Including Two High Grade Copper-Gold Trends

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – September 28, 2023) – Goldshore Resources Inc. (TSXV: GSHR) (OTCQB: GSHRF) (FSE: 8X00) (“Goldshore” or the “Company“), is pleased to update the market with respect to results from the Company’s summer exploration program at the Moss Gold Project in Northwest Ontario, Canada (the “Moss Gold Project“).

Highlights:

Goldshore field crews have identified five unique gold mineralization trends including two polymetallic Au-Cu trends across the Moss Gold Project through a combination of ionic leach soil sampling and property wide field mapping with a combined strike of over 35 kilometers. Recent rock sample results include:

  • Moss Trend – 9.59 g/t Au and 60.6 g/t Ag plus 5.0 g/t Au, 96.2 g/t Ag, and 0.98% Cu from samples in diorite-hosted shears along strike from the current Mineral Resource
    • 24.9 g/t Au and 9.99g/t Ag from samples of strongly altered dacite 200m south of the Moss Main zone, representing a new parallel zone.
  • Kawa Trend – 33.7 g/t Au, 0.64% Zn and 75.3ppm Mo from sheared diorite/volcanic contacts within a new 6.5 kilometer long belt.
  • Hamlin Trend – has been expanded to become an 8 kilometer long polymetallic Au-Ag-Cu-Mo belt with values including 0.73g/t Au, 0.14% Cu, 7.6 ppm Bi and 7.1 ppm Te.
  • Coldstream Trend – has been widened to 800 meters through the discovery of parallel structures assaying 1.07 g/t Au and 0.98% Zn.
    • 9.79 g/t Au from mafic-hosted carbonate shear veins at the “Benton” prospect, east of the East Coldstream deposit.
  • Vanguard Trend – 3.97% Cu, 1.73g/t Au and 19.1 g/t Ag plus 2.94 g/t Au in a 9 kilometer long belt of polymetallic VMS Cu-Zn-Au-Ag mineralization that is now found to be 120 meters wide through discovery of additional lenses.

President and CEO Brett Richards stated: “We have previously stated our confidence to the market that the Moss Project of c.183Mt containing an inferred resource of 6M oz Au at 1.02g/t (with 55% of the deposit hosting a shear domain at 1.84 g/t)1 could be the start to uncovering multiple deposits of gold mineralization, and polymetallic mineralization on our land package. The targets that we have identified and now sampled need to be drill tested to prove their voracity, and to provide a clearer picture on how best to prioritize the many targets we have previously highlighted to the market. The 30km trend of mineralization at Moss confirms the exciting potential of identifying and growing a large, multi-generational mining camp in the Shebandowan Greenstone belt.”

Field Program Update

Goldshore embarked on a property wide field reconnaissance program in June 2022 – in the background to drilling – exploring the numerous unexplained geophysical anomalies and under explored gold and base metal showings. This program accelerated over the last several months. The field crews have compiled a systematic interpretation of the project geology, structure, alteration, and mineralization across the Project. Through this investigation and in combination with a substantial ionic soil leach program, the historic gold showings and newly discovered mineralization have resolved to be part of five distinct mineralized trends, including two polymetallic trends.

The Moss Trend has been confirmed over an 8-kilometer strike containing the existing resource. The mineralization is dominantly hosted in anastomosing shears through an extensive altered diorite package. This zone is consistent with a belt of magnetic low bodies (altered intrusions) adjacent to folded magnetic highs (magnetic-bearing wall rocks) that present a belt with a high competency and redox contrast. Recent work has discovered elevated copper and silver mineralization towards the southwestern extents with recent rock samples returning values including 9.59 g/t Au and 60.6 g/t Ag, 5.0 g/t Au plus 96.2 g/t Ag, and 0.98% Cu. Samples of strongly altered dacite 200m south of the Moss Main zone returned assays of 24.9 g/t Au and 9.99g/t Ag, representing a new parallel zone. The field results confirm the interpretation from the step out and deep drilling at the Moss Gold Project that the mineralized corridor is at least 1,000 meters wide.

The Kawa Trend lies approximately 2 kilometers south of, and parallel to, the Moss Trend over a 6.5-kilometer strike length with a confirmed width of 550m. It has a similar magnetic character as the Moss Trend and mapping has shown that mineralization is hosted within and along a sheared diorite/volcanic contact. We therefore expect the Kawa Trend to have the same potential as the Moss Trend. Partial assays results have been received for this area with values including 33.7g/t Au.

The known Hamlin Trend has been extended by 4 kilometers to the east to form an 8-kilometer-long belt of polymetallic Au-Ag-Cu-Mo mineralization with a confirmed width from 400 to 700 meters. Recent expanded ICP analysis indicate additional Bi and Te potential. Partial assays results have been received for this area with values including 0.73g/t Au, 0.14% Cu, 7.6 ppm Bi and 7.1 ppm Te.

The Coldstream Trend containing the East Coldstream deposit has a confirmed strike of 3.5 kilometers hosted by late shearing within altered mafic volcanics and includes the historic North Coldstream Cu-Co mine. Recent exploration has discovered parallel mineralized shears within the northern intermediate volcanics expanding the width potential of the mineralization with rock sample assays returning values including 1.07 g/t Au and 0.98% Zn.

The Vanguard Trend has an established 9-kilometer strike length of polymetallic VMS Cu-Zn-Au-Ag mineralization linking with the Iris Lake Au prospect through a series of untested geophysical conductors. Results from the recent exploration have discovered additional parallel gold bearing shears north of the main Vanguard showing and ignored by much of the historical exploration giving it width of 120 meters. Partial assays results have been received for this area with values including 3.97% Cu, 1.73g/t Au and 19.1 g/t Ag and 2.94 g/t Au.

Additional poorly understood prospects defined by historical prospecting and known to host Cu-Au mineralization have been confirmed toward the east, west, and south of the East Coldstream deposit with assay results including 9.79 g/t Au. Future exploration programs will focus on better understanding this mineralization and its potential.

Pete Flindell, VP Exploration for Goldshore, said “Goldshore’s geologists have done an excellent job of mapping and sampling through challenging terrain to uncover the additional mineralized potential of the Moss Gold Project. This includes ionic leach soil sampling across muskeg to understand the character of concealed structural targets. These results speak to district-scale potential of the Moss Gold Project.”
