Graycliff Exploration Intersects Near-Surface Gold Mineralization Grading 4.83 g/t Over 3.0 Metres at Shakespeare Project, Ontario

 

Graycliff Exploration Limited (the "Company" or "Graycliff") (CSE:GRAY)(OTCQB:GRYCF)(FSE:GE0) is pleased to announce additional assay results from drilling on its Shakespeare Gold Project located on the prolific Canadian Shield near Sudbury, Ontario. The latest results are from the 2,200-metre Phase Two program that focused on defining the extent of gold mineralization proximal to the historic Miller where initial gold mining took place more than 100 years ago

 

Drill Holes J-17-21 intersected two mineralized intervals seven (7) metres ("m") apart with the higher interval returning 4.83 g/t gold ("Au") over 3.0 m, including 13.40 g/t Au over 1.0 m. Drill Hole J-15-21 was terminated early after intersecting a fault. Significant intervals for holes J-15-21 to J-17-21 are detailed below:

1 - Reported intervals are down-hole lengths and not true thicknesses. True width of the mineralization cannot be determined due to the early-stage nature of the current program.

 

2 - Length-weighted average grades are calculated using un-capped gold assay data.

"Thus far, the assay results from the Phase Two core drilling program continue to expand the defined strike length of the known gold mineralization proximal to the historic Miller shaft. We have now reported gold mineralization along a strike length of approximately 115 metres, and we have not yet defined a lower limit to the gold mineralization that includes significant gold values as well as visible gold in strongly veined and silicified schist with associated sulphide mineralization. As previously indicated by the Company's CEO, we expect that our efforts to develop a 3D model for the geology, structure and gold mineralization close to where we are drilling will help us better define the structural and mineralogical parameters associated with the gold mineralization at Shakespeare. We also anticipate that our ongoing modelling will provide us with new "blue sky" targets along the six kilometres of general strike length. Based on our work to date, we see no reason for the gold mineralization to not continue well below the areas now being tested," stated Bruce Durham, Technical Advisor and QP.

Gold Rush 2.0: Why California is Poised for a Mining Renaissance

With modern technology, a rising gold price and renewed government support for domestic mineral production, mining companies and investors are taking a second look at historic districts and brownfield projects once considered uneconomic — and California’s long-overlooked gold deposits are squarely back in focus.

The California Gold Rush of 1848 wasn’t just a pivotal moment in American history — it was one of the most profitable mineral booms ever recorded. Sparked by a discovery at Sutter’s Mill, the gold rush drew over 300,000 people and produced more than 25 million ounces of gold, much of it from the now-famous Mother Lode Belt.

At the peak of the gold rush, California was producing nearly 1 million ounces per year, including an estimated 1.4 million ounces from the Mariposa District alone. However, the low price of gold at the time and limitations with mining methods during the 19th and early 20th century, have left much of the gold-bearing rock unmined.
