Gold Bull Resources Corp. (TSX-V: GBRC) (“
Gold
Bull” or the “
Company”) is pleased to
report that visible gold has been observed in Reverse Circulation
(RC) drill chips from two holes (SA-0016 from 105.2 m to 106.7 m
(345’ to 350’) and SA-0018 from 53.3 m to 54.9 m (175’ to 180’)) at
the North Hill South Prospect, located within its 100% owned
Sandman Project, Nevada. The drill holes were a resource extension
target conceived through interpretation of 3D IP/resistivity and
historic drill data. The initial hole (SA-0007) designed to test
the target to the south of SA-0016 intersected shallow gold
mineralization. This positive result prompted the Company to drill
a wide-spaced pattern of holes to test the target in the area
between the current North Hill Mineral Resource Estimate envelope
and hole SA-0007. Assays are expected for these holes in mid-May.
HIGHLIGHTS & UPDATE:
- Visible gold mineralization
observed in an RC chip sampled from 105.2 m to 106.7 m (345’ to
350’) in hole SA-0016
- Visible gold grain observed
in an RC chip sampled from 53.3 m to 54.9 m (175’ to 180’) in hole
SA-0018
- Visible gold holes are
located up to approximately 70 m outside of the current Mineral
Resource Estimate envelope at North Hill
- Laboratory assay results
expected mid-May
Gold Bull CEO, Cherie Leeden commented:
Extending the shallow oxide
gold Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) at North Hill was the target
of these recently drilled holes. Observing visible gold in chips
from the new target area which is located more than 70 meters
outside of the current MRE is very encouraging. We eagerly await
assays from SA-0016 and SA-0018, as well as the other holes testing
this prospective zone. It is very rare to see visible gold in RC
chips!
Background
GBR Holes SA-0006 and SA-0007 were drilled on
either side of historic hole NSM-00330 (Figure 1), which
intersected 18.3 m @ 1.78 g/t Au from 4.6 m, outside the current
North Hill Mineral Resource Estimate. Hole NSM-00330 is located on
a resistive trend defined by 3D IP/resistivity data acquired for
Gold Bull by Dias Geophysical in December 2020 (refer to press
release dated December 28, 2020 “3D IP Survey Defines New Drill
Targets at Sandman”). This resistor had been interpreted as a
possible zone of potassic (adularia) alteration associated with a
hydrothermal fluid conduit hosting gold mineralization and is
co-linear with a zone of gold mineralization within the current
Mineral Resource Estimate. GBR Hole SA-0007 intersected 15.2 m @
0.37 g/t Au from 10.7 m, extending the mineralized zone intersected
by NSM-00330 by approximately 28.5 m to the east.
Fences of holes were drilled to the north of the
drill section containing SA-0006, NSM-00330 and SA-0007: holes
SA-00015, SA-00016 and SA-00017 were drilled on an east-west
section approximately 45 m north of SA-0007; holes SA-0018, SA-0019
and SA-0020 were drilled approximately 100 m north of SA-0007, just
outside the current Mineral Resource Estimate domain. Assay results
are pending for these holes. However, visible gold was observed in
one chip contained in a sample from 105.2 m to 106.7 m (345’ to
350’) in hole SA-0016 (Figure 2), and in one chip contained in a
sample from 53.3 m to 54.9 m (175’ to 180’) in hole SA-0018.

Each drill hole (SA-00015, SA-00016, SA-00017,
SA-0018, SA-0019 and SA-0020) encountered both mineralized horizons
(visual observation only, assay results pending for all holes)
defined by historic drilling within the North Hill Mineral Resource
Estimate, with moderate to intensely quartz-adularia altered
fluvial conglomerate, sandstone, tuff and epiclastic tuff
sandwiched between the Upper and Lower basaltic andesite flow
and/or hypabyssal intrusive sill. Intensity of alteration appears
to increase to the east.

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.

Quality Assurance – Quality Control
Drilling was completed using Reverse Circulation
(RC) drilling utilizing double wall drill pipe, interchange hammer
and 4¾ inch hammer bits to drill and sample the rock formation.
Samples were taken over 5 foot intervals (1.52m) and were collected
after separation of the sample using a rotary splitter situated at
the base of the cyclone. A small portion of the rock chips for each
5 foot interval was placed into chip trays for record keeping and
geological logging. The samples bagged at the rig were taken to
American Assay Laboratories in Sparks NV by a Company employee. The
Company inserts quality control (QC) samples at regular intervals
in the sample stream, including blanks and reference materials with
all sample shipments to monitor laboratory performance. The QAQC
program is overseen by the Company’s Qualified Person, Cherie
Leeden, Chief Executive Officer.
Samples are submitted to American Assay
Laboratories’ analytical facility in Sparks, Nevada for preparation
and analysis. The AAL facility is ISO-17025 accredited by IAS. The
entire sample is dried, weighed and crushed, with 70% passing -10
mesh, then riffle split to 250g aliquots, which are fine pulverized
with 85% passing -150mesh. Analysis for gold is by 30 g fire assay
lead collection with Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission
Spectroscopy (ICP-OES) finish with a lower limit of 0.003 ppm.
Samples with gold assays above 10 ppm are re-analyzed using a 30 g
fire assay fusion with gravimetric finish, which has a lower
detection limit of 0.1029 ppm. Ten foot composite samples were also
analyzed using a 48 multi-element geochemical package by 5-acid
digestion, followed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission
Spectroscopy (ICP-AES) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass
Spectroscopy (ICP-MS).
