Gold Springs Resource Corp. (TSX:GRC)(OTCQB:GRCAF) (the "Company" or "GRC"), has received assays from the final drill holes at South Jumbo as part of the 2022 drill campaign on its large Gold Springs project located in USA, on the border of Nevada and Utah, one of the best mining jurisdictions in the world.
Highlights include:
- 0.83 g/t gold equivalent over 18.3 meters including
1.89 g/t gold equivalent over 6.1 meters in hole E-22-015 - 0.75 g/t gold equivalent over 6.1 meters in hole E-22-017
- 0.53 g/t gold equivalent over 13.8 meters and
0.96 g/t gold equivalent over 6.1 meters in hole E-22-018 - 1.05 g/t gold equivalent over 4.6 meters and
0.74 g/t gold equivalent over 26.0 meters in hole E-22-020
Gold equivalent based on US$1,800/oz gold, US$25/oz silver and 50% for silver recovery.
Randall Moore, Executive Vice President of Exploration, stated:
""These results of our 2022 drill program confirm the significant potential for expansion of our current gold resource at South Jumbo in various directions:
- To the South - hole E-22-015 .
- To the North - hole E-22-020 .
- In the gap zone between the two resource blocks - holes E-22-017 and E-22-018.
GRC has now demonstrated the extension of gold mineralization in three different directions and also at depth. To the North the extension is significant as the hole E-22-020 with 1.05 g/t AuEq over 4.6 meters and 0.74 g/t AuEq over 26 meters is 80 meters north from the existing resource.
Once we update our model, follow-up holes will be planned with the objective to continue to expand gold mineralization in every direction, but especially to the north, towards Central Jumbo."
Summary of drill intercepts:
True thickness is estimated to be 70-100% of reported length. Grams per tonne of gold and silver abbreviated as "Au g/t" and "Ag g/t" respectively. Gold equivalent based on US$1,800/oz gold, US$25/oz silver and 50% for silver recovery.

Gold Retreats, Equities Down as Fed Leaves Rates Unchanged
The US Federal Reserve held its fifth meeting of 2025 from Tuesday (July 29) to Wednesday (July 30) against a backdrop of trade tensions, spurred on by the Trump administration's tariffs.
The central bank met analysts’ expectations by holding its benchmark rate in the 4.25 to 4.5 percent range.
Chair Jerome Powell stated that although there were differences of opinion among the Federal Open Markets Committee members, they were clear on why they made their decisions, noting that inflation was tracking higher, but the job market remained stable.
“The labor market looks solid, inflation is above target, and even if you look through the tariff effects, we think it’s still a bit above target, and that’s why our stance is where it is,” Powell said.
The Fed chair also noted a slowing in gross domestic product, which he pointed out was up 2.5 percent in 2024, but initial data from 2025 points to a slowing in growth to 1.1 percent.
The vote to hold the rate was 9-2, with Governors Michelle Bowman and Christopher Waller being the dissenters who advocated for cuts. It marks the first time since December 1993 that two board members have broken with consensus.
Both Bowman and Waller were appointed by Donald Trump during his first term in office, with Waller being one of the front-runners to replace Powell when his term as board chairman ends in May 2026.
Trump has been critical of Powell in recent months, with the latest statements coming just minutes before the Fed meeting. The president has said Powell has not moved quickly enough to make rate cuts, despite data suggesting inflation has been starting to increase.
North of the Border, the Bank of Canada (BoC) also held its June meeting on Wednesday.
It also met expectations by holding its benchmark rate at 2.75 percent, with Bank Governor Tiff Macklem citing resilience in the economy despite trade disputes brought on by the Trump administration in the United States.
The BoC last changed its rate with a 0.25 percent cut in March to the current 2.75 percent from 3 percent.
Gold was down in the day’s trading, losing 1.6 percent to US$3,272.75 per ounce. Silver declined more sharply, losing 3.37 percent to US$36.93 per ounce at 3:30 p.m. EST.
The S&P 500 (INDEXSP:INX) was down, recording a 0.4 percent decline to reach 6,344.17. The Nasdaq-100 (INDEXNASDAQ:NDX) slipped 0.17 percent to come in at 23,265 , and the Dow Jones Industrial Average (INDEXDJX:DJI) lost 0.74 percent, coming to 44,297.

Capricorn Metals' Karlawinda Expansion Gets Thumbs Up
The Karlawinda gold project by Capricorn Metals (ASX:CMM,OTC Pink:CRNLF) is now clear to commence all expanded mining activities.
In a Tuesday (July 29) release, Capricorn said that its mining proposal and mine closure plan for the project has been approved by Western Australia’s Department of Energy, Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (DEMIRS).
Karlawinda’s expansion was first revealed by the company last January, following its announcement of its acquisition of the Deadman Flat project in Pilbara.
According to Capricorn, Deadman Flat’s tenements cover approximately 270 square kilometres contiguous to its Karlawinda gold project, allowing for the expansion.
The company aims for Karlawinda to lift gold production by 25 percent, at a peak of 150,000 ounces per annum.
“We have been working hard over the past 12 months to be as prepared as possible for commencement of the project and that should allow an expedited start to construction,” commented Capricorn Executive Chairman Mark Clark.
Following the approval, Karlawinda can now proceed with all expanded mining activities at Bibra, Southern Corridor and Berwick open pits, and construction of the expanded processing plant.
The approval also covers the construction and development of Tailing Storage Facility 2 (TSF2), additional ROM pad, extensions to the southern waste dump and other infrastructure development required.
On July 24, Capricorn also announced its acquisition of Warriedar Resources (ASX:WA8,OTC:WRDRF) and its flagship Golden Range project.
The announcement stated that 2.3 million ounces (Moz) gold equivalent will be added to Capricorn’s resource, about 25 percent more than its existing Western Australian mineral resource base of 6.8 Moz.
Subject to certain conditions, the acquisition is expected to close in November 2025.
