Gold Bull extends drill program at Sandman from 4000m to 5000m to test new targets

Gold Bull Resources Corp. (TSX-V: GBRC) (" Gold Bull " or the " Company ") is pleased to report that extensions to the lag geochemical sampling program in the Windmill target area and west of the North Hill deposit has defined additional strong anomalies at its 100% owned Sandman Project (" Sandman " or the " Project ") located in Humboldt County, Nevada, USA. The Company intends to increase the current drill program from 4000m to 5000m to test these new targets while the drill rig is onsite. The Company is fully funded to complete this additional drilling.

HIGHLIGHTS & UPDATE:

  • Drill program extended from 4000m to 5000m to test new targets
  • Strong gold anomaly at surface (up to 2.36 ppm Au) defined south of North Hill in the Midway target area = new drill target
  • Lag geochemical sampling program extended from the Silica Valley target area northeast of Silica Ridge deposit
  • Broad gold lag geochemical anomaly extends west of North Hill in the Sandbowl target area, where 2021 hole SA-0029 returned 10.7m (35 ft) @ 0.51 g/t Au from 131m (430 ft) in rocks that are not usually mineralized at Sandman
  • Gold and pathfinder antimony anomalism on parallel structures intersecting the Windmill Target area indicate that these are possible conduits for mineralizing fluids along a trend
  • Drill holes are planned to test Sand Bowl and Windmill Targets in May with results anticipated in June 2022
  • Drilling continues onsite – first batch of assay results for announcing due imminently

Gold Bull CEO, Cherie Leeden commented:

Lag geochemical sampling is proving to be an excellent low cost tool for detecting new concealed gold areas which have previously not been explored due to a thin veneer of sand cover obscuring the rocks below. We have several target areas at Sandman which require this lag test work to identify new high priority drill targets with the aim of making new gold discoveries. >1g/t gold at surface is very encouraging and is worthy of drill testing.

Background

The lag geochemical sampling program that defined a strong anomaly at the Silica Valley target (refer to press release "Gold Bull surface sampling defines new drill target at Sandman" dated February 28, 2022) has been extended, resulting in identification of new exploration targets at Sandbowl and Windmill as well as further definition of the Windmill Trend target.

Sandbowl Target

Sandbowl is a target extending from the western edge of the North Hill deposit into an area covered by sand dunes with limited to no prior drill testing. Hole SA-0029, drilled in June 2021 within the southern edge of this target area, returned 12.2 m (40 ft) @ 0.47 g/t Au from 131.1 m (430 ft) down-hole in the lower fluvial sequence. Gold mineralization in this part of the Tertiary stratigraphy at Sandman is unusual and may indicate proximity to a fluid conduit and potential unknown deposit.

The lag sampling program defined a broad zone of gold (up to 0.108 ppm Au) and pathfinder element anomalism extending west of the North Hill deposit into the area north of hole SA-0029. A hole designed to test an interpreted structure intruded by a mafic dyke is planned and will be drill tested within the next few weeks.

Midway (North) Target

The lag sampling program covered the northern end of the Midway target area, which extends between the North Hill and Silica Ridge deposits. Previous explorers had regarded the southern end of the North Hill deposit as being closed off by sparse historic drilling in this area. However, the lag sampling program defined an anomaly with up to 2.36 ppm Au (sample described as bleached, quartz-adularia altered basalt/andesite). This result demands a review of the historic drilling in this area to determine whether the favorable host units have been adequately tested close to the already defined North Hill Mineral Resource.

Windmill Target

The Windmill Target was identified using gravity, helicopter magnetics and CSAMT, which defined intersecting E-W and NNW structures to the south of the historic drilled Windmill drill target. The lag sampling program has defined gold and pathfinder anomalies on two sub-parallel interpreted NNW striking structures that form part of the Windmill Trend Target. A hole has been planned to test one of these structures in the current drill program.

About lag geochemical sampling

Lag sampling is a technique pioneered by Western Mining Corporation in Australia and has demonstrated effectiveness in arid terrain (refer to Carver, R.N., Chenoweth, L.M., Mazzucchelli, R.H., Oates, C.J., and Robbins, T.W., 1987, "Lag" – a geochemical sampling medium for arid regions: Journal of Geochemical Exploration, v. 28, 1-3, p 183-199). The geochemical sample is collected by screening surficial rock material gathered within a 20-30 m radius of the sample location by removing the fine fraction (mainly aeolian sand), leaving the coarse residual rock fragments. Orientation sampling over the northern end of the Silica Ridge deposit in July 2021 confirmed the effectiveness of this technique for detecting geochemical expressions of covered gold deposits in the Sandman terrain.

Next Steps

  • The strong gold anomaly in lag sampling south of North Hill indicates that the mineralizing system may extend beyond the current Mineral Resource Estimate. A review of historic drilling is planned.
  • The current drill program will extend into May and will include additional drill holes testing the new Sandbowl and Windmill targets.
  • Additional low cost lag sampling is required at Sandbowl to further define the gold anomalism.

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 @ 0.7g/t gold for 494,000 ounces of gold; comprising of an Indicated Resource of 18,550kt @ 0.73g/t gold for 433kozs of gold plus an Inferred Resource of 3,246kt @ 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.

North Bay Resources Announces Discovery of Mass Tonnage Gold Deposit up to 149m  Grading 0.95 g/t Au, Fran Gold Project, British Columbia

North Bay Resources Announces Discovery of Mass Tonnage Gold Deposit up to 149m Grading 0.95 g/t Au, Fran Gold Project, British Columbia

North Bay Resources, Inc. (the " Company " or " North Bay ") (OTC: NBRI) is pleased to announce analyses and compilation of prior exploration work at the Fran Gold Project has resulted in the discovery of a mass tonnage gold deposit. This includes review of diamond drilling in 2001, 2005, 2006, 2012, and 2018 as well as geochemical, geophysical and 3D modelling data. Past exploration and development, including over 18,000m (55,000ft.) of diamond drilling, has shown very large intercepts of up to 149m (489 feet) of 0.95 gram per ton gold. The deposit area has been identified to be in excess of 1000m x 100m x 300m within a known strike length of 1700m. This represents an exploration potential of 79,500,000 tonnes at a specific gravity of 2.65. At an average grade of 0.8 grams per tonne the current potential is 2M ounces. There is sufficient data to immediately proceed with a NI 43-101 Compliant Mineral Resource Estimate . The Fran Gold Project is next to Centerra Gold's (TSX:CG) Mt. Milligan Project, with Reserves of 264Mt grading 0.3 gram per tonne gold and 0.2% copper and proximate to Artemis Gold's (TSXV:ARTG) Blackwater Mine, with Proven and Probable Reserves of 334Mt grading 0.8 grams per tonne gold. Both Mt. Milligan and the Blackwater Mine are two of the largest new mines in North America in the modern era. The Blackwater Mine has a Measured and Indicated Resource in excess of 10M ounces of gold.
