Gold Bull drilling defines eastern extension at North Hill and extends Abel Knoll mineralization outside Mineral Resource Estimate

Gold Bull Resources Corp. (TSX-V: GBRC) (" Gold Bull " or the " Company ") is pleased to report that drilling intercepts at the North Hill deposit have confirmed the continuity of an internal high-grade zone and extended the known shallow mineralization to the east, and hole SA-0049 at Abel Knoll has confirmed continuity of an eastern extension to the Mineral Resource Estimate.

Highlights & Update:

  • North Hill SA-0037: 32 m at 1.31 g/t gold (Au) from 42.7 m, including 1.5 m at 9.34 g/t Au
  • North Hill SA-0039: resource extended by about 80m to the east
  • All mineralization at North Hill is oxidized, and the resource remains open at depth
  • Abel Knoll mineralization intersected outside of Mineral Resource and remains open
  • 3450 m (11315 ft) for 17 holes completed during current program with 1550 m (5090 ft) remaining for 5 holes
  • More assay results expected soon, and drilling continues onsite at Sandman

Gold Bull CEO, Cherie Leeden commented:

The more we drill, the more ounces we are defining outside the known resource at Sandman. In addition to adding ounces, the consistent grades returned from within the North Hill deposit including 32m of near-surface oxidized mineralization grading 1.31g/t Au (including a high-grade zone going 9.34 g/t gold over 1.5m) make for a compelling case to investigate the economics of a start-up operation. We have circa half a million ounces of gold sitting at or near the surface and intend to commence a Scoping Study after receiving the lab results from this drill program.

Background

North Hill

Recent Hole SA-0037 returned 32 m (105 ft) at 1.31 g/t Au from 42.7 m (140 ft), including 1.5 m (5 ft) at 9.34 g/t Au from 59.4 m (195 ft), confirming the continuity of a high-grade zone defined within the Mineral Resource Estimate by earlier drilling (refer to press release "Gold Bull drills several shallow high-grade intercepts including 13.7m @ 10.95 g/t Au from 41.1m; Extends North Hill high-grade gold mineralization at Sandman" dated March 29, 2021). Hole SA-0037 also intersected 1.5 m (5 ft) at 0.26 g/t Au from 77.7 m (255 ft) and 1.5 m (5 ft) at 0.2 g/t Au from 160 m (525 ft).

Hole SA-0039 was collared 80 m east of the nearest edge of the current Mineral Resource Estimate to test for down-dip extensions to the North Hill shallow strata-bound mineralization. Hole SA-0027, drilled in 2021 beneath the eastern edge of the Mineral Resource Estimate, had returned three mineralized intervals: 19.8 m (65 ft) @ 0.6 g/t Au from 4.6 m (15 ft), (including: 6.1 m (20 ft) @ 1.18 g/t Au from 9.1 m (30 ft)), 15.2 m (50 ft) @ 0.39 g/t Au from 30.5 m (100 ft), and 21.3 m (70 ft) @ 0.44 g/t Au from 51.8 m (170 ft), all of which lie within 65 m (213 ft) vertical depth below surface, which is within range of a possible open pit design. (Refer to press release "Gold Bull Reports Sandman Drill Holes at North Hill and Silica Ridge Intersect Gold Mineralization Outside of Current Resource" dated July 21, 2021.) These intersections, located near the Mineral Resource Estimate boundary, indicated that the mineralization remained open to the east and SA-0039 was planned as a significant step-out. Hole SA-0039 returned 4.6 m (15 ft) at 0.94 g/t Au from 39.6 m (130 ft), confirming that opportunities to discover further shallow (potential open-pit) extensions to the Mineral Resource Estimate exist in this sparsely drilled area to the east of North Hill.

Abel Knoll

Hole SA-0049 was drilled to test the continuity of mineralization intersected in resource extension holes SA-0031 (refer to press release "Gold Bull Reports Significant New Gold Mineralization Outside of Current Resource at Sandman Including: 90m at 0.6 g/t Au" dated July 28, 2021) and SA-0050 (refer to press release "Gold Bull drilling intersects high-grade gold mineralization at Sandman, up to 13g/t gold (over 1.5m) at Silica Ridge" dated April 19, 2022). These two holes, located to the east of the current Mineral Resource Estimate, had intersected several intervals returning average gold grades above the 0.2 g/t Au resource cut-off, with SA-0031 returning 89.9 m (295 ft) averaging 0.6 g/t Au from 76.2 m (250 ft) to 166.1 m (545 ft), including small intervals of internal waste at an average grade of 0.13 g/t Au. The recent hole SA-0049 returned 56.4 m (185 ft) at 0.2 g/t Au from 103.6 m (340 ft). The result confirms the continuity of the mineralized zone east of the Mineral Resource Estimate, which remains open to the north and south.

About Sandman

In December 2020, Gold Bull purchased the Sandman Project from Newmont. Gold mineralization was first discovered at Sandman in 1987 by Kennecott and the project has been intermittently explored since then. There are four known pit constrained gold resources located within the Sandman Project, consisting of 21.8Mt at 0.7g/t gold for 494,000 ounces of gold; comprising of an Indicated Resource of 18,550kt at 0.73g/t gold for 433kozs of gold plus an Inferred Resource of 3,246kt at 0.58g/t gold for 61kozs of gold. Several of the resources remain open in multiple directions and the bulk of the historical drilling has been conducted to a depth of less than 100m. Sandman is conveniently located circa 25-30 km northwest of the mining town of Winnemucca, Nevada.

Lawrence Lepard: "Big Print" Coming — Fully Expect US$5,000 Gold, US$200,000 Bitcoin

Speaking to the Investing News Network, Lawrence Lepard, managing director at EMA, voiced his thoughts on the outlook for gold and Bitcoin as the debt doom loop intensifies in the US.

"I call it a doom loop — it's a vicious circle in the wrong direction, which I believe will ultimately lead to the government having to say, 'Okay, this isn't going to work. We are going to institute yield curve control or QE, or we're going to buy the bonds,'" he explained on the sidelines of the New Orleans Investment Conference.

Lepard believes it's important to hold both gold and Bitcoin, noting that the only wrong allocation is zero.

Chris Temple: Gold's Next Leg Higher, Plus Uranium and Natural Gas in 2025

Chris Temple, founder, editor and publisher of the National Investor, outlined the main factors he sees impacting the gold price heading into 2025, saying the yellow metal will undoubtedly move higher.

In his view, its rise will come as market participants realize how many problems the US economy is facing.

"I think that once that reality sets in, gold will get its next big lease on life and the stock market is going to bog down. I think we're going to see a lot of rotation in the market that will start to favor real assets and real value — away from everybody chasing the same relative handful of stocks as we've seen," Temple explained.

WGC: Gold to Face Complex Drivers in 2025, Price Likely to Cool After Record-Breaking Year

The World Gold Council (WGC) has released its 2025 gold outlook, highlighting various macroeconomic factors, geopolitical risks and central bank activity as pivotal forces influencing demand and prices.

While 2024 saw gold achieve a stellar performance with a 28 percent annual increase, the outlook for 2025 is characterized by a mix of opportunities and challenges stemming from both global and regional developments.

The yellow metal has benefited from its historical role as a hedge against uncertainty, but the WGC forecasts that its performance next year will depend on other key variables as well.

Increased M&A Activity a Win-Win for Gold Sector, Brightstar Resources Exec Says

Following the completion of its acquisition of Alto Metals, Brightstar Resources (ASX:BTR) plans to conduct 50,000 metres of reverse-circulation and diamond drilling, beginning next year, at Alto Metals' approximately 900 square kilometre Sandstone gold project in Western Australia.

In an interview with the Investing News Network, Brightstar Managing Director Alex Rovira outlined the next steps for merging Alto Metals with Brightstar’s assets and the strategy for moving forward.

“From an exploration perspective … it's really focusing on the Sandstone package. We will do near-mine brownfields exploration at our Menzies and Laverton gold projects. And really, the aspiration there is to take a number of those mines toward development decisions,” he said.
