Granada Gold Hits 7.63 g/t Gold Over 5 Meters Including 53.5 g/t Over 0.65 Meters During Infill Drill Program

(TheNewswire)



August 11, 2021 TheNewswire - Rouyn Noranda, Quebec - Granada Gold Mine Inc. (TSXV:GGM) (OTC:GBBFF)) (Frankfurt:B6D) (the "Company" or "Granada") is pleased to announce additional drill results from its on-going drill program at its Granada Gold Mine Project near Rouyn-Noranda along the prolific Cadillac Break in northwestern Quebec's Abitibi region.

Drilling Highlights:

GR-16-14W1 intersected 2.82 g/t over 1.0 m at 852.65m

GR-16-14W2 intersected 4.26 g/t over 1.0m at 907.85m

GR-16-14W3 intersected 7.63 g/t over 5.0 m at 886.0 m

GR-21-01 intersected 7.55 g/t over 1.0 m at 314.75 m

GR-21-02 intersected 7.91 g/t over 1.0 m at 363.85 m

GR-21-12 intersected 4.68 g/t over 1.25 m at 457.45 m

"The objective was to drill under the pit-constrained resource and at depth – in order to increase the quantity and quality of the mineral resources. These latest drill results – from new holes and wedges off existing holes – show intersections of gold of economic grade near the surface, under the pit-constrained resource and at depth.  This supports the view that a significant increase in our next resource update is possible," said Frank J. Basa, P.Eng., President and CEO.

This news release presents available partial results of diamond drill wedge holes off GR-16-14 as well as infill holes between GR-11-362 and GR-11-393. The mineralized structures were intersected at various depth in each wedge showing the continuity of the structures with gold grade variability, confirming the continuation of mineralized veins.

Holes GR-21-01 and GR-21-02 were drilled to bridge a 100m gap between GR-11-362 and GR-11-393 under the pit-constrained resource. Partial results are disclosed. GR-21-12 was drilled to identify continuity of gold zones on the eastern edge of the orphan tailings.

The 2021 Exploration program

The 2021 drill program is aiming to fill the gaps allowing additional mineral resources to be developed while simultaneously testing the continuity of the structures with the 200-series holes.

In addition, holes are being drilled to verify the extension of structure and gold mineralization under the orphan tailings area.

The drill program has completed 30,000 meters to date and will be paused to give the technical team the time to evaluate and assimilate all existing data as well as to incorporate the laboratory results which are lagging due to ongoing delays in turnaround times across the industry.

Qualified person

The technical information in this news release has been reviewed by Claude Duplessis, P.Eng., GoldMinds Geoservices Inc. m ember of Québec Order of Engineers and a qualified person in accordance with National Instrument 43- 101 standards.

Quality Control and Reporting Protocols

All NQ core assays reported for Wedges of 2020 holes were obtained by either 1-kilogram screen fire assay or standard 50-gram fire-assaying-AA (Atomic Absorption) finish or gravimetric finish at SGS Laboratory in Vancouver where sample preparation is done in Val d'Or, Québec. The 2021 assay results are from ALS laboratory in Val d'Or. The screen assay method is selected by the geologist or geological engineer when samples contain visible gold. The drill program, Quality Assurance/Quality Control ("QA/QC") and interpretation of results is performed by qualified persons employing a QA/QC program consistent with NI 43-101 and industry best practices. Standards and blanks are included with every 20 samples for QA/QC purposes for this program in addition to the lab QA/QC.

About Granada Gold Mine Inc.

Approximately 150,000 meters of drilling has been completed to date on the property, focused mainly on the extended LONG Bars zone which trends 2 kilometers east-west over a potential 5.5 kilometers of mineralized structure. The highly prolific Cadillac Break, the source of more than 75 million plus ounces of gold production in the past century, cuts through the north part of the Granada property. But is not necessarily indicative of mineralization hosted on the company's property.

Editor's Picks: Gold Knocks Out Inflation-Adjusted High, Silver Breaks US$42

Gold's record-setting price run continued this week, with yet another new all-time high in the books. Silver also fared well, breaking US$42 per ounce.

According to Bloomberg, gold has now also surpassed its inflation-adjusted all-time high of US$850 per ounce, which it set more than 45 years ago on January 21, 1980. The news outlet notes that at the time the US was dealing with currency issues, inflation and recession concerns.

These are problems that sound all too familiar today. This week brought the release of the latest US consumer price index (CPI) data, which shows a 0.4 percent month-on-month increase for the all-items index — that's ahead of estimates and the most since the start of 2025.
