Gold Bull Resources Corp. (TSX-V: GBRC) (“
Gold
Bull” or the “
Company”) is pleased to
report new assay results from a resource extension drill hole at
the Abel Knoll Prospect within its 100% owned Sandman Project
(“
Sandman” or the “
Project”)
located in Humboldt County, Nevada, USA. Hole SA-0031, drilled
outside the Abel Knoll resource has intersected gold (Au)
mineralization that is currently open in multiple directions. These
drill results indicate potential to expand the resource and
follow-up holes are planned for later in 2021. The Company recently
commenced a Phase 2 5000m Reverse Circulation (RC) drill program of
which 2126 m (6975 ft) for 12 holes has been completed.
HIGHLIGHTS & UPDATE:
- SA-0031 intersected 90 m
(295 ft) at 0.6 g/t Au mineralized interval from 76.2 m
which included
- 53.3 m @ 0.81 g/t Au from 111.3 m including:
- 3 m @ 1.59 g/t Au from 118.9 m and
- 4.6 m @ 4.80 g/t Au from 150.9 m, which included 1.5 m
@ 12.4 g/t Au from 150.9 m
- 6.1 m @ 0.98 g/t Au from 76.2 m
- 4.6m @ 1.97 g/t Au from 99.1 m
- The gold mineralization remains
open in multiple directions
- Previously (March 21, 2021)
announced 2021 results at Abel Knoll (SA-0001) included
144.8m at 1.67g/t Au from 65.5m including 6.1m at 10.75 g/t
Au from 143.25 m
- More laboratory assay results
expected in the coming weeks
Gold Bull CEO, Cherie Leeden commented:
Abel Knoll comprises both
diatreme breccia hosted mineralization, which we drilled earlier
this year with hole SA-0001, and strata-bound mineralization within
the Tertiary and basement Triassic rocks. The results from SA-0031
are exciting because they demonstrate that the strata-bound
mineralization is open to the south and occurs over significant
widths, with potential for more high-grade gold. We drilled two
additional holes closer to the existing Mineral Resource Estimate
and eagerly await assay results. Results such as this hole, located
outside the known resource provide confidence that our Sandman
Resource has room to grow!
Background
The recently complete Phase 2 drill program at
Sandman comprised both exploration and resource extension holes.
Results from SA-0031 indicate that the Abel Knoll deposit remains
open to the south east. Assays from holes SA-0032 and SA-0033 in
the same area are pending.
There are two styles of gold mineralization at
Abel Knoll: (a) western area is hosted in and around a small
diatreme breccia body, possibly related to mafic magmatism; and (b)
an area to the east-northeast of the diatreme where mineralization
appears to be related to altered basalt, and generally extends
parallel to the strike of Tertiary rocks. The Company drilled hole
SA-0001 in March 2021 (refer to press release “Gold Bull intersects
144.8m at 1.67g/t gold, including 6.1m at 10.75g/t gold in maiden
drill hole at Sandman” dated March 21, 2021) to provide improved
definition of the mineralization hosted by the diatreme breccia.
Hole SA-0031 was designed to test the second, strata-bound type of
mineralization at the southern margin of the Mineral Resource
Estimate.
Hole SA-0031 intersected 12.2 m (40 ft) @ 0.25
g/t Au from 42.7 m (140 ft) to 54.9 m (180 ft) hosted in
quartz-adularia and argillic altered Tertiary basalt, 6.1 m (20 ft)
@ 0.98 g/t Au from 76.2 m (250 ft) to 82.3 m (270 ft) hosted in
quartz-adularia altered Tertiary felsic tuff, 6.1 m (20 ft) @ 0.32
g/t Au from 99.1 m (325 ft) to 105.2 m (345 ft) at the contact
between Tertiary felsic tuff and Triassic quartzite, and 53.3 m
(175 ft) @ 0.81 g/t Au from 111.3 m (365) to 164.6 m (540 ft)
hosted by a Triassic metasedimentary sequence mainly comprising
quartzite and phyllite (Figure 1 and Figure 2). This lower
intersection included 3 m (10 ft) @ 1.59 g/t Au from 118.9 m (390)
to 121.9 m (400 ft) and 4.6 m (15 ft) @ 4.8 g/t Au from 150.9 m
(495 ft) to 155.4 m (510 ft) within a transition between quartzite,
phyllite and limestone. This latter interval included a single 1.5
m (5 ft) sample returning 12.4 g/t Au from 150.9 m (495 ft).
The entire 89.9 m (295 ft) down-hole interval
from 76.2 m (250 ft) to 166.1 m (545 ft) is mineralized, averaging
0.6 g/t Au, with sub-grade intervals between the significant
intercepts quoted above returning an average grade of 0.13 g/t Au.
This is evidence of a strong, consistent mineralizing system,
depositing gold in non-receptive lithologies such as phyllite, and
provides encouragement that significant extensions of the Abel
Knoll deposit may be located by further drilling to the south.

About Sandman
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 85% passing -10
mesh, then riffle split to 1 kg aliquots, which are fine pulverized
with 90% passing -150mesh. Analysis for gold is by 50 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 50 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 35 multi-element (plus Se and Hg) geochemical
package by 5-acid digestion, followed by Inductively Coupled Plasma
Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES) and Inductively Coupled
Plasma Mass Spectroscopy (ICP-MS).
