NevGold Expands Cadillac Valley South Discovery By Over 100 Meters To the Northwest And Intercepts More Oxide Gold
06 Oktober 2022 - 2:00PM
NevGold Corp. (“
NevGold” or the
“
Company”) (
TSXV:NAU)
(OTCQX:NAUFF)
(Frankfurt:5E50) is
pleased to announce further assays from the Company’s drill program
at the Cadillac Valley target area at its Limousine Butte Project,
Nevada (the “Project”) located on the southern part of the Carlin
Trend. The Company has intercepted more oxide gold at the newly
discovered Cadillac Valley South area expanding the mineralized
footprint by over 100 meters to the northwest. Further assays from
the Company’s inaugural 10,000 meter drill program at the Project
are expected to be released over the coming weeks.
Key Highlights
- Cadillac Valley South
Discovery Has Expanded
by Over
100 Meters to the
Northwest: CV22-007 intercepted
0.44 g/t
oxide Au over
36.6
meters from a drill pad over 650 meters away from
CV22-002 (0.83 g/t oxide Au over 126.2 meters
released on April 6, 2022) and expands mineralization over 100
meters to the northwest of CV22-006 (0.51 g/t oxide Au over
73.1 meters released on June 2, 2022). The Company has
only drilled two holes at the Cadillac Valley South discovery and
both holes have shown positive, consistent, oxide gold intercepts
with many areas open for infill and delineation drilling. Cadillac
Valley South is a high potential resource growth target.
- Large,
Open, Growing
Mineralized
Footprint at Cadillac
Valley: the mineralized area at Cadillac
Valley has further increased and now extends over 1.6 km along
strike and over 450 meters laterally. Hole CV22-007 was drilled
with reverse circulation (“RC”) to target an area between CV22-002
and CV22-006 to infill the open mineralized footprint. (Figure 1,
Figure 2) There is also another +1.5 km of untested strike length
to the southwest of Cadillac Valley South. (Figure 3)
- Highly Oxidized
Mineralization: oxidized mineralization has been seen in
all of the holes drilled to date by the Company at Limousine
Butte.
- Exploration
Upside: large areas of the 67 km2 Limousine Butte Project
are untested and there are various identified targets based on the
current Company geological model. (Figure 4) The mineralized system
continues to grow as drilling occurs along strike with large
step-out holes.
NevGold CEO, Brandon
Bonifacio, comments: “We are continuing to
build a meaningful, near-surface, high-grade oxide gold story at
Limousine Butte. The two holes that we have drilled to date at the
newly discovered Cadillac Valley South target area have had
consistent oxide gold grades over positive intercepts and have
further expanded the mineralized footprint at the larger Cadillac
Valley target. The drilling at Limousine Butte over the past 12
months has shown higher grade material than many heap-leach
projects in production or development in the Western USA. As
previously indicated since the announcement of our option agreement
on Nutmeg Mountain which closed on July 5, we will continue to
aggressively and systematically advance Limousine Butte to a
near-term resource. The remaining assays from our 10,000 meter
drill program are expected shortly and will be released over the
coming weeks.”
NevGold VP
Exploration, Derick
Unger, comments: “Hole
CV22-007 further confirms the extents of the gold system at
Cadillac Valley and speaks to the broader potential for discovery
at the Limousine Butte project. While the drillhole crossed the
major northeast striking fault, it confirms the fault was an
important conduit for the gold-bearing fluids and shows that the
CSAMT geophysical surveys that we inherited with the property can
identify both the conductive zones associated with the faults and
the resistive zones associated with the mineralization. The CSAMT
surveys extend to the south of holes CV22-006 and CV22-007 and we
are excited to continue to test the Cadillac Valley South area
which has the potential for additional mineralization over a
minimum strike length of another 1.5 kilometers.” Drill

Sampling Methodology, Chain of Custody,
Quality Control and Quality Assurance: All sampling was
conducted under the supervision of the Company’s geologists and the
chain of custody from the Project to the independent sample
preparation facility, American Assay Labs in Sparks, NV, was
continuously monitored. The samples were crushed, pulverized and
sample pulps were analyzed using industry standard fire assay
methods. A blank and certified reference material was inserted
approximately every 20th sample, and field duplicates were
collected and analyzed approximately every 20th sample. Data
verification of the analytical results included a statistical
analysis of the standards and blanks that must pass certain
parameters for acceptance to ensure accurate and verifiable
results.
