Blue Lagoon Hits 126 g/t Au and 404 g/t Ag at Chance

Blue Lagoon Hits 126 g/t Au and 404 g/t Ag at Chance

Blue Lagoon Resources Inc. (the "Company") (CSE:BLLG; FSE:7BL; OTCQB:BLAGF) is pleased to announce significant mineralized intercepts from the first holes of the Phase Two 2022 drill program on its all year-round and road accessible Dome Mountain Gold Project, located a short 50-minute drive from Smithers, British Columbia. Drill results include 126 gt Au and 404 gt Ag over 0.41 meters from the Chance Structural Zone (CSZ) in hole DM-22-247

"While drilling the mineralized flat structural zone in the CSZ ("Flat Chance") we have encountered what we believe to be a new vein system of higher grade than those hosted in the Flat Chance Structure", said Bill Cronk, Chief Geologist for Blue Lagoon Resources. "The Flat Chance Structure has been drilled down dip for 400 meters and along strike for 200 meters and the structure has been hit in all holes so far. This structural zone ranges from less than 1 meter up to 15 meters thick which may host multiple gold mineralized veins and attendant alteration. Our drilling to extend along strike also intersected a new structure that lies orthogonal to the Flat Chance Structure and appears, at least initially, much higher grade, and offers another opportunity to develop additional mineralized resources at Dome Mountain."

As mentioned, the Flat Chance is a shallow-dipping to flat-lying structural zone extending at least 400 meters down dip at about 12°dip (Figure 2). Thickness of the structural zone ranges from 1 to 15 metres. Hole DM-22-247 (Figure 1 and Figure 3) was intended to target this structure but also encountered an upper vein which ran 126 grams/tonne gold and 404 grams/tonne silver over 0.41 meters (core length) and, along with other holes which have hit this structure, points to another mineralized structure which can be defined by drilling in the near future.

Flat Chance is defined downdip and open along strike. Sufficient drilling has yet to be performed to delineate resource.

Hole DM-22-247, 248 and 250 were all successful hitting the Flat Chance Structure as well as this new mineralized structure. (Figure 3). This new mineralized vein structure has a thickness of up to 1.73 meters including the vein itself and mineralized wallrock. * (Table 1).

A second drill has been added to the program. Drilling will continue to the Christmas break.

In addition to drilling, Blue Lagoon has completed a ground-based IP and CSAMT geophysical survey over the Chance Structural Zone and the Freegold Intrusion. The final report is yet to be delivered.

Soil sampling has been completed on the 2022 Dome Mountain Summer program. A total of 2,453 soil samples have been collected with results for 53% yet to be received. It is expected that the final results will be returned by mid October.

QUALITY ASSURANCE AND CONTROL

Core selected for sampling was cut in half with a core saw or split with a hydraulic splitter with one half bagged for shipping. Strict chain of custody storing, and shipping protocol was maintained. All core preparation and analyses were completed by Activation Laboratories Ltd. located in Kamloops, BC. Core was crushed, split, and pulverized with 250 grams passing 200 mesh. Each sample was analyzed for gold by fire assay with ICP-OES finish (Act Labs Code 1A2-ICP) and for multi-elements by 4-acid total digestion ICP with OES finish.(Act Labs Code 1F2) Any gold overlimits (>30 ppm Au) were analyzed by gravimetric fire assay. Standards and blanks were inserted by Company staff. The sampling program was undertaken by Company personnel and under the direction of Ted Vanderwart, P.Geo.

The scientific and technical disclosure in this news release was approved by William Cronk, P.Geo, a Qualified Person as defined in NI 43-101 and a consultant to the Company.

Blue Lagoon Encounters Significant Mineralization on the Boulder Vein - Adds Over 200 Meters of Strike Length to Previous Deep Intercept 200 Meters Below Current Resource

Blue Lagoon Encounters Significant Mineralization on the Boulder Vein - Adds Over 200 Meters of Strike Length to Previous Deep Intercept 200 Meters Below Current Resource

Blue Lagoon Resources Inc. (the "Company") (CSE:BLLG); (FSE:7BL); (OTCQB:BLAGF) is pleased to announce significant mineralized intercepts from the last of the 2022 Phase One drill results on its all year-round and road accessible Dome Mountain Gold Project, located a short 50-minute drive from Smithers, British Columbia. Drill results include 124 gt Au and 36.7 gt Ag over 0.76 meters from the Argillite Vein in hole DM-22-233 and 31.67 gt Au and 473 gt Ag over 1.09 meters from the Boulder Vein in hole DM-22-229

Drilling deep and on strike in the Boulder Vein encountered very significant mineralization which added over 200 m of strike length to the already deep intercepts 200 meters below the current 43-101 resource on the Boulder Vein System. Results include 31.67 g/t Au and 473.0 g/t Ag over 1.09 meters (including 86.20 g/t Au and 1280 g/t Ag over 0.39 meters) from DM-22-229 and 11.22 g/t Au and 15.4 g/t Ag over 0.94 meters and 6.99 g/t Au and 37.7 g/t Ag over 4.63 meters ( including 10.28 g/t Au and 37.7 g/t Ag over 1.88 meters) both from DM-22-231. True thicknesses of these intersections are estimated at 70% of the drill indicated length.

Blue Lagoon Kicks Off 2022 Phase Two Drill And Exploration Program On Its Dome Mountain Gold Project

Blue Lagoon Kicks Off 2022 Phase Two Drill And Exploration Program On Its Dome Mountain Gold Project

Blue Lagoon Resources Inc. (the "Company") (CSE:BLLG) (FSE:7BL) (OTCQB:BLAGF) is pleased to announce that a crew has been mobilized to commence its Phase Two 2022 drill program on the Company's all year-round road accessible Dome Mountain Gold Project, located a short 50-minute drive from Smithers, British Columbia. A continuation of the 20,000-meter drill program announced in January 2022, the Phase 2 program is expected to be a minimum of 13,000 meters of diamond drilling

The Phase Two drilling, which starts today, will commence in the Chance Structural Zone, testing the hypothesis of a flat-lying structure hosting Au-bearing quartz-carbonate veins, intersected in the 2021 Phase 2 drill program ( Figure 1). The first hole will target between the DM-21-206 (14.49 g/t Au, 29.2 g/t Ag over 1.91m) and DM-21-218 (7.05 g/t Au, 17.4 g/t Ag over 3.98m). This initial target will test the flat lying target concept and follow up by using additional holes to define the extents of a possible new resource at Dome Mountain. Based on in house 3D modelling the minimum extents of a flat lying mineralized structure are at least 300m by 300m. Current modelling shows a mineralized structure dipping at approximately 12-15 degrees southwest.

Mine Sites Leveraging AI, Predictive Technology to Boost Efficiency and Protect Workers

Modern mining operations aren't always quick to embrace new technologies, but companies that do so often find they can improve yields, as well as produce better corporate margins and profitability.

At the recent MiningTech North America event, held in Burnaby, BC, speakers focused on how mining companies are integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and other technology to improve resilience and minimize downtime.

While adding these elements can introduce complexity, the consensus was that the right approach can make a real difference, not only for site operation, but also for employee health and happiness.
