  • Rresult for holes COD18-49 to COD18-51. The COD gold bearing vein is located in the Gold Drop Southwest Zone.
  • COD18-49 intersected 9.52 g/t gold & 118 g/t silver over 1.47 meters

Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire)GGX Gold Corp. (TSX-v: GGX), (OTCQB: GGXXF), (FRA: 3SR2) (the “Company” or “GGX”) is pleased to announce it has received additional analytical results from its diamond drilling program on the Gold Drop property, located near Greenwood, B.C. Drill core analytical results have been received for 2018 drill holes COD18-49 to COD18-51 which tested the COD Vein. The COD gold bearing vein is located in the Gold Drop Southwest Zone. High grade gold has been confirmed within the COD Vein during the 2018 drill program with some core samples exceeding 1 oz. / ton gold. Gold bearing quartz veins are also reported in the east and north regions of the property, with historic samples reported to exceed 1 oz. / ton gold for veins in both areas.

The analytical results listed below are highlights from drill holes COD18-49 to COD18-51 (intersections greater than 1 g/t gold), testing the continuation of the COD Vein south-southwest of the 2017 trench. Since true widths cannot be accurately determined from the information available the core lengths (meters) are reported. The gold, silver and tellurium analyses are reported in grams per tonne (g/t).

The highlight from these analytical results is an intersection of 9.52 g/t gold & 118 g/t silver over 1.47 meters core length in drill hole COD18-49, including 24.5 g/t gold, 367 g/t silver and 186 g/t tellurium over 0.30 meter core length. This interval of quartz veining and altered wall rock inclusions is at approximately 22 meter vertical depth and approximately 140 meters southwest of the area of 2017 trenching at the COD Vein. This hole was drilled at a 45 degree dip to the northwest. Holes COD18-45 and COD18-46, drilled from the same set-up but to the west, also intersected near-surface high grade gold (News Releases of August 15 and 22, 2018) identifying this area as having potential for high grade gold mineralization. COD18-49 was drilled approximately 200 meters southwest of drill hole COD17-14 which intersected the 4.59 g/t gold over 16.03 meter core length, including 10.96 g/t gold over 5.97 meter core length (News Release of September 7, 2017).

The 2018 drilling program focused on testing and defining the COD Vein, a Dentonia/Jewel style quartz vein. Trenching during 2017 exposed the northeast – southwest striking COD Vein for over 160 meter strike length. Numerous 2018 drill holes testing the COD Vein intersected significant levels of gold, silver and tellurium as reported in News Releases of May 29, June 14, June 27, July 11, July 19, July 25, August 1, August 9, August 15 and August 22. Most of these holes are southwest of the area of 2017 trenching. More significant gold intersections (core length) to date from the 2018 program are as follows:

  • COD18-3:       14.62 g/t Au over 2.1 meters
  • COD18-26:     10.3 g/t Au over 1.4 meter recovered core (within 2.35 meter interval)
  • COD18-28:     11.3 g/t Au over 0.51 meters
  • COD18-33:     8.65 g/t Au over 2.98 meters
  • COD18-34:     6.16 g/t Au over 3.41 meters
  • COD18-37:     8.23 g/t Au over 3.95 meters
  • COD18-45:     50.1 g/t Au over 2.05 meters
  • COD18-46:     54.9 g/t Au over 1.47 meters
  • COD18-49:     9.52 g/t Au over 1.47 meters

The 2018 drilling program also tested the continuation of the Everest Vein, which is located approximately 600 meters southwest of the COD Vein worksite. The Everest Vein was first discovered by Company prospectors during the 2017. Chip samples collected in 2017 across the approximate 0.4 meter wide vein exposure returned up to 52.8 g/t gold and 377 g/t silver while a grab sample of a quartz vein boulder broken off the outcrop by the excavator returned 81.8 g/t gold and 630 g/t silver (News Release of August 21, 2017).

In addition to the gold discovered by the Company at the COD and Everest Veins, gold mineralization is reported in in quartz veins in the east and north regions of the property. These include the Gold Drop, North Star and the Silent Friend quartz veins in the east region of the property and Amandy, Roderick Dhu, Lady of the Lake, Lake View and Moonlight in northern region of the property. High grade gold is reported for historic samples at some of these veins with samples reported to exceed 1 oz. / ton gold. Historic gold production occurred at the Gold Drop, North Star, Amandy and Roderick Dhu veins.

Drill core from the 2018 program was geologically logged and sampled. Drill core was sawn in half with half core samples submitted for analysis and remaining half core stored in a secure location. Core samples were delivered to the ALS Minerals laboratory in Vancouver to be analyzed for gold by Fire Assay – AA. Samples exceeding 100 g/t gold were re-analyzed for gold by Fire Assay – Gravimetric Finish. The samples were also analyzed for 48 Elements by Four Acid ICP-MS. Samples exceeding 100 g/t silver were re-analyzed for silver by Four Acid ICP-AES. One sample from COD18-46 exceeded 1500 g/t silver and was re-analyzed for silver by Fire Assay – Gravimetric Finish. Quality control (QC) samples were inserted at regular intervals.

  • Production activities at the Beaufor Mine will be temporarily suspended as of December 14, 2018, and the mine will be placed on care and maintenance.
  • The Corporation will continue its exploration activities at the Beaufor Mine in order to increase its gold resource over the longer term, given the many high-grade results obtained since the end of 2017.
  • Camflo’s custom milling operations, which reported another consecutive increase in revenues in the fourth quarter of more than 31%, will not be affected.
  • The Corporation will focus its efforts on developing and completing the feasibility study of its core asset, the Wasamac gold deposit, which contains measured and indicated resources of 2,587,900 ounces of gold (see Table 1 at the end of this release).
  • The Corporation has acquired land adjacent to the Wasamac project, with more than 1 km strategically located along the Trans-Canada Highway and the Ontario Northland Railway.
  • Monarques Gold has sold its 2% net smelter return royalty in the East Amphi property to Canadian Malartic GP for $250,000.

MONTREAL, Aug. 30, 2018 - MONARQUES GOLD CORPORATION (“Monarques” or the “Corporation”) (TSXV:MQR) (OTCMKTS:MRQRF) (FRANKFURT:MR7) announced today that production activities at the Beaufor Mine will be temporarily suspended as of December 14, 2018. The suspension is primarily due to the low grades of the ore mined at Beaufor in recent quarters, combined with the persistent weakness in the price of gold and difficulties recruiting qualified manpower in the region. As a result, the mine’s workforce will be cut to around ten employees who will be assigned to care and maintenance of the mine and its facilities.

“This decision was necessary for the future of the Corporation,” said Jean-Marc Lacoste, President and Chief Executive Officer of Monarques. “With the persistent weakness in the gold price and lower-than-expected grades, operations at the Beaufor Mine have been challenging in the last two quarters, a situation that had to be corrected at all costs. Over the coming quarters, we will be looking for ways to improve the mining grade while pursuing our exploration activities, which have generated very promising results. Our goal is to restart the Beaufor Mine as soon as we are able to ensure that our operations will be profitable.”

“We will also step up our efforts to develop Monarques’ main asset, the Wasamac gold deposit, which, by using the latest technology, has the potential to become a mine. We will soon issue an update on the status of the Wasamac feasibility study, where we are seeing some very encouraging developments. In terms of operations, it is important to underscore that our custom milling operations at the Camflo mill are growing every quarter and are expected to continue contributing positively to our results,” Mr. Lacoste added.

Exploration program and strategy at the Beaufor Mine

The new exploration strategy at the Beaufor Mine will aim to grow the high-grade gold resource over a longer-term horizon, in order to ensure greater operating profitability.

The many factors leading the Corporation to continue exploring at Beaufor, which has produced more than 1.1 million ounces over its lifetime, include the multiple high-grade results obtained since the end of 2017 and the fact that the mine still has excellent exploration potential along strike and at depth.

Along these lines, the Corporation has obtained new results from its 2018 drilling program. The results are for a total of 3,220 metres of drilling in 14 exploration holes. Nine of the holes intersected mineralization, including hole 18-150-68A, which returned 10.38 g/t Au over 7.65 metres, including 100.50 g/t Au over 0.50 metres in the QF1 vein. The QF veins generated other significant results, including 84.80 g/t Au over 1.65 metres, 59.45 g/t Au over 0.50 metres, 58.30 g/t Au over 0.50 metres, 32.51 g/t Au over 1.2 metres and 26.50 g/t Au over 0.50 metres. The drill results are summarized in Table 2 at the end of this release.

Acquisition of strategic land adjacent to the Wasamac project

On August 24, 2018, Monarques acquired a property next to the Wasamac project to serve as the site of the project’s mining facilities. Located further away from the local community, the property has the added strategic advantage of including a stretch of more than 1 kilometre along the Trans-Canada Highway and the Ontario Northland Railway, easing transportation logistics for the mined material.

Sale of the East Amphi property royalty to Canadian Malartic GP

On August 21, 2018, the Corporation sold its 2% net smelter return royalty on the East Amphi property to Canadian Malartic GP for the sum of $250,000. The royalty was among the assets acquired from Richmont Mines but did not fit into the Corporation’s development plans.

Quality control and qualified person

Sampling normally consists of sawing the core into two equal halves along its main axis and shipping one of the halves to Val-d’Or for assaying at the ALS Geochemistry laboratory, which is fully accredited under ISO 17025. The samples are crushed, pulverized and assayed by fire assay with atomic absorption finish. Results exceeding 10.0 g/t are re-assayed using the gravity method. Certified standards and blanks are inserted into the sampling stream for quality control purposes.

The technical and scientific content of this press release has been reviewed and approved by Marc-André Lavergne, P.Eng., the Corporation’s qualified person under National Instrument 43‑101.

  • On April 4th, NAM announced it had signed a binding Letter of Intent (LOI) with Avalon Development Corp. in Alaska to use its PGM database. This agreement will aid NAM in acquiring additional PGM projects in the State in the future.
  • The Genesis PGM Project is a road accessible, under explored, highly prospective multi-prospect drill ready Pd-Pt-Ni-Cu property that warrants initial drilling, additional surface mapping, sampling to expand the known footprint of mineralization and to determine the ultimate size and grade of the layered mineralization outlined to date.
  • On April 18th, NAM acquired rights for 100% interest in the 10,240-acre, road accessible and drill ready Platinum Group Metal (PGM)/Polymetallic Project.
  • The mineralized horizon has been identified in outcrop sampling for 850 m along strike and a 40 m true thickness. (for more information please click to the April 18, 2018 news release).
  • The identification of two different styles of PGM/ Multi-Element mineralization at Sheep Hill suggests that multiple mineralizing events have occurred.
  • The stable land status, ease of access and superb infrastructure make this project prospective for year-around exploration, development and production.
  • Outcrop sampling has returned values of 16-9,660 ppm Ni, 0.5-5,800 ppm Cu, 0-2,800 ppb Pt, 0-2,540 ppb Pd
  • The company is actively seeking an Option/Joint-Venture partner to further develop this project

August 29th 2018 / Rockport, Canada – New Age Metals Inc. (NAM) (TSX.V: NAM; OTCQB: NMTLF; FSE: P7J.F) The company is very pleased to announce that the first technical report on NAM’s 100% owned Genesis PGM/Polymetallic Project is complete.

NAM Seeking Option/Joint-Venture Partner

NAM management is actively seeking an option/joint-venture partner for this road accessible PGM/Multiple Element Project using the Prospector Generator business model. For a copy of the Avalon report please contact Cody Hunt, Business Development ([email protected]) or by phone at 613-659-2773. A standard confidentiality agreement will be forwarded to the interested party and the report will be made available.

Avalon Development Corporation (Avalon) provided geologic consulting, including field sampling, mapping and data compilation on this project in the past and was retained to compile this NI 43-101 compliant report.

The Genesis project is a Ni-Cu-PGM property located in the northeastern Chugach Mountains, 75 road miles north of the city of Valdez, Alaska. The project is within 3 km of the all-season paved Richardson Highway and a high capacity electric power line. The project is covered by 4,144 hectares (10,240 acres) of State of Alaska mining claims owned 100% by New Age Metals. Past exploration has revealed the presence of chromite-associated platinum and palladium mineralization and stratabound Ni-Cu-PGM mineralization within steeply dipping magmatic layers of the Sheep Hill portion of the Tonsina Ultramafic Complex. The mineralized horizon has been identified in outcrop sampling for 850 m along strike and a 40 m true thickness.

Figure 1: Location of the Genesis Project, Nelchina Mining District, Alaska.

PGM values at Genesis are strongly correlated with the chromite rich portions of the mineralized horizon, while Ni and Cu are strongly correlated with sulfide rich portions of the mineralized horizon. Metal grades are regular over multiple meter intervals, including 6 meters grading 804 ppb platinum and 1,018 ppb palladium, and 12 meters grading 5,938 ppm nickel. There has been no drilling on this district-scale project and the strike and depth extent of Ni-Cu-PGM mineralization remains untested. Additionally, two areas of banded chromite hosted in dunite and harzburgite on the Bernard Mountain portion of the Tonsina Ultramafic Complex host multiple ppm PGM and a sample of chromite hosted in the olivine websterite unit contains the high values for both Platinum (Pt) and Palladium (Pd) for a combined 5,340 ppb PGM. Outcrop sampling has returned values of 16-9,660 ppm Ni, 0.5-5,800 ppm Cu, 0-2,800 ppb Pt, 0-2,540 ppb Pd. Limited geochemical sampling and geologic mapping has been conducted over these two mafic-ultramafic massifs.

The identification of two different styles of PGM mineralization at Sheep Hill suggests that multiple mineralizing events have occurred. The parental magma for the Tonsina Ultramafic Complex contained highly anomalous concentrations of PGM and Ni. More exploration is required to define if a reef event has formed the stratabound magmatic sulfide mineralization and if the geochemical patterns caused by reef formation hosts economically significant Ni-Cu-PGM mineralization in the Tonsina Ultramafic Complex.

The different Cr/Fe ratios for chromite ores studied by the USBM during the 1980’s (Foley et al, 1985, Foley and others, 1987) fits with observations from layered intrusions with multiple chromite horizons (Maier and Barnes, 2005) where the Cr/Fe ratio decreases in successive chromite layer formation. The decrease in Cr/Fe ratios between Bernard Mountain, thought to be a basal sequence, and Sheep Hill, interpreted to be a stratigraphically higher portion of the intrusive complex (Foley and others, 1987), could indicate that multiple chromite formation events have occurred in the ultramafic magma chamber, and that other PGM-enriched horizons remain undiscovered. PGM profiles of Genesis project outcrop samples show a Ruthenium trough, which is postulated to have formed during partial melting of the mantle in a subduction environment, and are more similar to PGM profiles from Ni-Cu-PGM ores from layered intrusions such as Stillwater, the Great Dyke, and Penikat, than PGM profiles from ophiolite associated ores.

Merits of the Genesis PGM Project

The Genesis PGM Project is an under explored, highly prospective multi-prospect drill ready Pd-Pt-Ni-Cu property that warrants follow-up drilling, additional surface mapping, sampling to expand the known footprint of mineralization and to determine the ultimate size and grade of the layered mineralization outlined to date. The stable land status, ease of access and superb infrastructure make this project prospective for year-around exploration, development and production.

Significant aspects of the Genesis PGM Project include:

  • – Drill ready PGM-Ni-Cu reef style target with 2.4 grams/ton Palladium (Pd), 2.4 grams/ton Platinum (Pt), 0.96% Nickel (Ni), and 0.58% Copper (Cu).
  • – Reef mineralization is open to the west, east, north, and at depth.
  • – Mineralized reef identified in outcrop for 850 m along strike and a 40 m true thickness.
  • – Separate style of chromite mineralization contains Platinum Group Metals (PGM) up to 2.5 g/t Pd and 2.8 g/t Pt.
  • – Known PGM mineralization covers a distance of 9 km across the prospect.

Future Recommended Work on the Genesis Project by Avalon Development’s August 2018 Report

Year 1: Initial efforts at Genesis should focus on detailed geologic mapping (1:1,000 or better), grid-based lithogeochemical sampling, 2D and 3D reinterpretation of previously completed airborne and ground geophysical surveys, and acquisition, interpretation and ground-truthing of hyperspectral imagery over the Tonsina Ultramafic complex and vicinity. This effort will require some pre-season desk-top work (geophysical reinterpretation and hyperspectral analysis) followed by field work centered on 6 to 8 person tent camps that are emplaced by helicopter but which do not have daily helicopter support. The focus of field efforts will be detailed geologic mapping and lithogeochemical sampling designed to locate and define both bedded and chromite-related Cu-Ni-PGM mineralization to a degree sufficient to target drilling in year 2. All analytical work will include Pt+Pd+Au by fire assay and multi-element IPC-AES analysis with 4-acid digestion. Total estimated cost of this program is approximately $500,000.

Year 2: Exploration recommended for year 2 will be focused on initial scout drilling of one or more targets as refined by year one efforts. Approximately 2,500m of drilling is included in this program. Hole coordinates, inclinations and azimuths will be refined using results from year 1 field efforts. Drilling will be helicopter supported using an LF70 or CS1000 or equivalent drilling rig supplied with water derived from local streams or ponds. Drill support will be from a contract tent camp capable of supporting 10-12 persons. All drill core will be logged, photographed, and sawed with one-half of the core remaining in archive, the other half being shipped for geochemical analysis. All analytical work will include Pt+Pd+Au by fire assay and multi-element IPC-AES analysis with 4-acid digestion. Total estimated cost of this program is approximately $1,000,000.

Year 3: Exploration recommended for year 3 will be focused on definition drilling of the most promising target drilled in year 2. The goal of year 3 efforts will be to advance at least one target to the inferred resource stage. Approximately 5,000 metres of drilling is included in this program. Hole coordinates, inclinations and azimuths will be refined using results from year 2 drilling efforts. Drilling will be helicopter supported using an LF70 or CS1000 or equivalent drilling rig supplied with water derived from local streams or ponds. Drill support will be from a contract tent camp capable of supporting 10-12 persons. All drill core will be logged, photographed, and sawed with one-half of the core remaining in archive, the other half being shipped for geochemical analysis. All analytical work will include Pt+Pd+Au by fire assay and multi-element IPC-AES analysis with 4-acid digestion. Total estimated cost of this program is approximately $1,500,000. NAM’s management are actively seeking an Option/Joint-Venture partner for Genesis.

ABOUT NAM’S LITHIUM DIVISION

The summer exploration plan has begun for the company’s Lithium Division (June 14th, 2018). NAM has 100% ownership of eight pegmatite hosted Lithium Projects in the Winnipeg River Pegmatite Field, located in SE Manitoba, with focus on Lithium-bearing pegmatites. Three of the projects are drill ready. This Pegmatite Field hosts the world class Tanco Pegmatite that has been mined for Tantalum, Cesium and Spodumene (one of the primary Lithium minerals) in varying capacities, since 1969. NAM’s Lithium Projects are strategically situated in this prolific Pegmatite Field. Presently, NAM is the largest mineral claim holder for Lithium and Rare Metal projects in the Winnipeg River Pegmatite Field.

Lithium Canada Development is a 100% owned subsidiary of New Age Metals (NAM) who presently has an agreement with Azincourt Energy Corporation (AAZ) whereby AAZ will now expend a minimum of $600,000 in 2018. In its initial earn in AAZ may earn up to 50%, of the eight Lithium projects that are 100% owned by NAM. AAZ’s 50% exploration expenditure earn in is $2.950 million and should they continue with their option they must issue up to 1.75 million shares of AAZ to NAM. NAM has a 2% royalty on each of eight Lithium Projects in this large underexplored pegmatite field. On July 11th,2018, NAM announced that they had exercised their option to search for Lithium and Rare Metals on the CAT4 claim. For additional information on the NAM/AAZ option/joint-venture and recent acquisitions (see the news releases dated Jan 15, 2018, May 2, 2018, May 10, 2018, June 6, 2018, June 13, 2018, July 11, 2018) or go to the investors presentation on www.newagemetals.com

ABOUT NAM’S PGM DIVISION

NAM’s flagship project is its 100% owned River Valley PGM Project (NAM Website – River Valley Project) in the Sudbury Mining District of Northern Ontario (100 km east of Sudbury, Ontario). Presently the River Valley Project is North America’s largest undeveloped primary PGM deposit with Measured + Indicated Mineral Resources of 160 million tonnes @ 0.44 g/t Palladium, 0.17 g/t Platinum, 0.03 g/t Gold, with a PdEq metal grade of 0.90 g/t at a cut-off grade of 0.4 g/t PdEq equating to 3,297,000 ounces PGM plus Gold and 4,626,000 PdEq Ounces (Table 1). This equates to 4,626,000 PdEq ounces M+I and 2,714,000 PdEq ounces in Inferred classification (see May 8th, 2018 press release). NAM is currently conducting Phase 4 of their proposed 2018 exploration and development program. The current program is based on recommendations of previous geophysical studies and reviews by the company’s consultants, recent drilling, ongoing advanced metallurgical and minerology studies and selective pit design drill programs. The results of Phase 4 will assist in early PEA work being conducted by P&E Mining Consultants Inc and DRA Americas Inc and is meant to contribute towards the River Valley PEA. Mr. Michael Neumann, P.Eng., a veteran mining engineer and one of NAM’s directors, will oversee the completion of the PEA.

On April 4th, 2018, NAM signed an agreement with one of Alaska’s top geological consulting companies. The companies stated objective is to acquire additional PGM and Rare Metal projects in Alaska. On April 18th, 2018, NAM announced the right to purchase 100% of the Genesis PGM Project, NAM’s first Alaskan PGM acquisition related to the April 4th agreement. The Genesis PGM Project is a road accessible, under explored, highly prospective, multi-prospect drill ready Palladium (Pd)- Platinum (Pt)- Nickel (Ni)- Copper (Cu) property. A comprehensive report on previous exploration and future phases of work was completed in August 2018 on Genesis. This report was completed by Avalon Development of Fairbanks Alaska.

On August 29 the Avalon report was submitted to NAM, management is actively seeking an option/joint-venture partner for this road accessible PGM and Multiple Element Project using the Prospector Generator business model. For a copy of the Avalon report please contact Cody Hunt, Business Development ([email protected]) or by phone at 613-659-2773. A standard confidentiality agreement will be forwarded to the interested party and the report will be made available.

  • Significantly, the first sighting of coarse visible gold has been made, within an interval that assayed 26.6 g/t gold over 1.5 meters in hole CB-18-32.
  • CB-18-32 intersected 1.036 g/t gold over 121.8 meters and 0.800 g/t gold over 49.5 meters

Cardston, Alberta–(August 27, 2018) – American Creek Resources Ltd (“the Company”) (TSXV: AMK) is pleased to report initial results from the 2018 Tudor Gold drill program on the Copper Belle zone of the Company’s Treaty Creek property in BC’s Golden Triangle. Gold, silver and copper analyses have been received from the first two holes. To date, five holes have been completed, totaling 3,899 meters and the sixth and seventh holes are proceeding.

The gold assays from the first two drill holes indicate broad intervals of more than 300 meters of gold mineralization that have expanded the known area of the Copper Belle zone, providing positive results that will be used in future resource calculations. Significantly, the first sighting of coarse visible gold has been made, within an interval that assayed 26.6 g/t gold over 1.5 meters in hole CB-18-32.

Walter Storm, Tudor Gold President and CEO, stated: “We are extremely encouraged by the broad intervals of gold mineralization encountered in the first two drill holes of the season at Copper Belle. The large step-outs with the drills will quickly evaluate a significant area of the porphyry system and we are prepared to drill deeper holes to explore the indications of continuing gold mineralization at depth. In addition, there is a three-kilometer interval between Tudor Gold’s Copper Belle discovery and Seabridge Gold’s Iron Cap deposit, in which our magnetotelluric geophysical survey has identified strongly anomalous targets that have yet to be drill tested.”

CB-1831, the first hole of the season, is a step-out hole that has expanded the known extent of the Copper Belle zone some 100 m to the west of previous drilling. CB-18-32, which is located 190 m south of hole 31, has also extended the zone more than 100 m to the west. Current drilling continues to step out successfully to the west in large jumps of 100 to 150 meters, providing information about a sizeable portion of the porphyry-style mineralized system. The Copper Belle zone appears to be a relatively flat-lying body that is located along trend, to the northeast of the Iron Cap Au-Cu deposit on the adjacent property of Seabridge Gold Corp. Holes at Copper Belle in 2018 are testing a magnetic high that measures some 600 meters by 500 meters and has previously only been drilled along its eastern and southern margins. For locations of the 2018 and other holes in the Copper Belle area that are overlain on Total Magnetics contours, please view the map below.

CB-18-31 intersected a 302 meter-long mineralized interval from 392.0 to 694.0 meters that averages 0.471 g/t gold. Within this section are zones of more intense silica alteration that contain greater concentrations of pyritic mineralization, which have returned higher gold values, such as 1.908 g/t Au over 20.5 meters.

CB-18-32 intersected two broad zones of mineralization; the upper zone averages 0.662 g/t gold over 337.8 meters and also contains intervals of stronger alteration and mineralization, such as 1.036 g/t gold over 121.8 meters and 0.800 g/t gold over 49.5 meters. The lower zone, 90 meters downhole from the first, averages 0.395 g/t gold over 169.5 meters, with higher grade intervals such as 0.758 g/t gold over 31.5 meters. Strong mineralization is present at the end of hole 32, indicating very good potential for continuing gold values at depth.

Gold, silver and copper results for holes CB-18-31 and CB-18-32 are summarized in the table below:

* All assay values are uncut and intervals reflect drilled intercept lengths.
* True widths of the mineralization have not been determined.

Earlier in the season, Tudor Gold field crews examined and channel sampled a new zone of porphyry-style veining that has recently been exposed by retreating glacial ice. This area is about 1.1 kilometers southwest of the Copper Belle zone, toward the Iron Cap deposit, and has not been previously sampled. Of the twelve samples, several were anomalous in gold, with values such as 0.522 g/t gold over 1.5 meters. Additional sampling in this new zone is planned.
