2022-09-19 12:09:15 By : Ms. Jacqueline Yang

NV Gold Corporation (TSXV:NVX) (OTC PINK:NVGLF) ("NV Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce its intended plans for the 2022-2023 exploration and drilling program for its six highest priority projects in Nevada. The Company has secured a drill rig and has initiated drilling at its Sandy Project

Additionally the Company is in the process of completing a detailed strategic analysis and field investigation of the 31 targets identified by Goldspot Discoveries Corp's ("Goldspot") review of NV Gold's Data Library using its proprietary AI technology (see press release dated August 11, 2022 on the Company's website at www.nvgoldcorp.com). This review is intended to identify longer term prospective projects to continuously add to NV Gold's project pipeline. NV Gold holds one of the largest, most prolific land packages in Nevada, arguably the best gold mining jurisdiction in the World.

Highlights of the exploration programs by project are as follows:

Thomas Klein, VP Exploration commented, "I am excited about the exploration program we have in front of us. For the past two years, it has been challenging to engage drill rigs in Nevada with qualified teams. We are fortunate to have recently engaged Envirotech to commence our 2022-2023 exploration program. We have priority targets on several projects and expect significant field activity with respective news flow over the course of the next several months. I am optimistic that we could have several significant discoveries. Additionally, the targets identified by Goldspot provides a portfolio of high potential targets to add to our already large land package in Nevada."

John Seaberg, NV Gold's Chief Executive Officer added, "NV Gold is at a pivotal juncture in its evolution. We have amassed a significant portfolio of high priority gold properties in Nevada and are excited to test their potential, many of which have never been drilled before. We will be very active over the course of the next several months as we begin to unlock the hidden value of these properties.

NV Gold Corporation (TSXV:NVX,OTC Pink:NVGLF) is a junior exploration company focused on delivering value through mineral discoveries and a highly-experienced in-house technical team. The company owns 16 gold properties throughout Nevada, which was named the number one mining jurisdiction in the world by the Fraser Institute. NV Gold is primarily focused on developing its Frazier Dome project.

The Frazier Dome project is located near the Tonopah mining district and is 32 kilometers from Columbus Gold’s (TSX:CGT) Eastside project. The company’s 2018 drill program tested four of nine target areas and intersected between 0.10 g/t gold and 1.035 g/t gold in five holes. The company is currently conducting a surface mapping, sampling, geophysics and drilling program that’s targeting the gold mineralization adjacent to the intrusive dome.

NV Gold’s 15 other Nevada properties are all in various stages of development. The company intends to develop each of its properties one at a time and is continuously looking to acquire additional projects. The company also intends to drill on one of these projects.

NV Gold has gained access to AngloGold Ashanti’s (ASX:AGG,NYSE:AU) and USMX Inc.’s historical databases, giving the company an edge over its peers when it comes to exploration. The company has also attracted the attention of Eric Sprott, Redstar Gold Corp. (TSXV:RGC) and US Global Investors who collectively own 16 percent of shares.

The company also boasts three highly-regarded and skilled management team members who all have experience working in Nevada. Heading the team is Chairman and CEO John Watson who has over 30 years of experience in the mineral resource industry in Nevada. Joining him are directors Dr. Quinton Hennigh, Dr. Odin Christensen and VP Exploration Dr. Marcus Johnston, who collectively have over 55 years of mining experience in Nevada.

The Frazier Dome project is comprised of 50 unpatented mining claims. The project is 13 kilometers north of the Tonopah mining district in Nevada. The Tonopah district contains two styles of volcanic-hosted epithermal gold mineralization: high-grade, intermediate sulfidation veins and low-sulfidation, gold-rich mineralization. The mineralized system at Frazier Dome is similar to the low-sulfidation mineralization found in the district and at Columbus Gold’s Eastside project which is located 32 kilometers to the west.

The project contains a high-grade, low-sulfidation, volcanic-hosted epithermal gold system in three areas: silicified breccias and veins, north and northwest-trending quartz vein stockworks and silicified volcanic lacking veins. The veins have been traced up to 370 meters before projecting under a thin post-mineral volcanic and alluvial cover.

Between 1980 and 1991, historical drilling intersected an area of shallow gold mineralization. Drilling, however, failed to test all areas of outcropping gold or for mineralization beneath the cover. Notable historical drill results included 1.5 meters grading 10.38 g/t gold and 15.2 meters grading 0.85 g/t gold.

Based on preliminary exploratory work, NV Gold has identified a target area adjacent to the intrusive dome that could be conducive to the development of high-grade epithermal mineralization. The company’s 2018 drill program tested four of nine target areas. Five of the eight widely-spaced holes intersected between 0.10 g/t gold and 1.035 g/t gold.

“Modelling of the Frazier Dome identified many geologic similarities with the shallow parts of low-sulfidation epithermal deposits, especially resources related to other rhyolite domes in the vicinity, such as the Eastside, Hasbrouk and Three Hills gold deposits,” said NV Gold VP Exploration Dr. Marcus Johnston. “The eight reverse circulation holes NVX drilled in 2018 all encountered significant runs of alteration and gold and silver mineralization. The lengths and widths of the mapped fracture and vein sets, combined with the long-runs of alteration and mineralization in drilling, and the shallow nature of the exposed system all point toward a potentially bonanza-grade deeper deposit(s), and the possibility of bulk-tonnage ore to be found on the property.”

NV Gold is currently conducting an exploration program at Frazier Dome. The program includes surface mapping, sampling, geophysics and drilling that will target the gold mineralization adjacent to the intrusive dome.

NV Gold has 14 additional properties in Nevada that are in different phases of development. The company intends to continue to move each property forward with plans to acquire additional properties.

The 6.5-square-kilometer SW Pipe project resides in the Cortez Gold Belt in north-central Nevada. The project is six kilometers southwest of Barrick Gold Corp.’s (TSX:ABX) Pipeline gold mine, which contains approximately 21 million ounces of gold.

Between 1989 and 1997, the property saw historical vertical drilling. Within 150 meters of the surface, a previous operator intersected gold mineralization. Notable results from the program include 17 meters grading 0.44 g/t gold, 11 meters grading 0.75 g/t gold and 18 meters grading 0.60 g/t gold.

NV Gold’s first-phase rock sampling returned gold values up to 1.74 ppm gold with high arsenic and antimony levels. The mineralization at SW Pipe is predominantly within 100 meters of the surface. Gold can be found over a vertical range of at least 300 meters within a 1.3-kilometer by 500-meter area.

The company’s preliminary results from the project indicate that north and northwest-striking faults may have localized mineralization which spread laterally away from these faults. The faults have not been drill tested to date.

NV Gold is reviewing historical exploration data which includes original assay certificates and drill logs, surface rock chip and soil data, internal third-party reports and geological and geophysical interpretations. Aside from its data review efforts, the company also intends to continue to assess the property for mineralization at the feeder structures and outside of historical drilling areas.

The Richmond Summit project is four miles northwest of Newmont Goldcorp’s (NYSE:NEM) Mike copper-gold deposit in the Maggie Creek district and five miles south of Newmont Goldcorp’s Carlin gold mine. The Maggie Creek district has a gold production, reserves and resource total of approximately 29 million ounces with 10 million ounces concentrated in the Carlin mine area alone.

Carlin-type gold mineralization occurs in several widely-spaced areas on the property. Select surface samples from the Main zone returned 7.75 ppm gold, and historical trenching samples returned 20 feet grading 3.048 ppm gold, 10 feet grading 4.960 ppm gold and 10 feet grading 3.59 ppm gold.

Before 1991, limited historical drilling intersected shallow gold mineralization within 200 feet of the surface, returning 10 feet grading 2.54 ppm gold. Mineralization in the area is accompanied by elevated arsenic, antimony and mercury levels, which are typically associated with Carlin-type gold mineralization.

The Ridge zone is 1,200 feet west of the Main zone which is another area of interest for NV Gold. Trenching returned 72 meters of anomalous gold with values of up to 1.97 g/t gold, and a rock-chip sample returned values of 3.7 g/t gold.

Two drill holes were completed at the Main zone and one at the Ridge zone. One of the holes at the Main zone intersected anomalous gold and arsenic values of up to 400 ppb gold and 2,600 ppm arsenic.

The Root Spring project is 80 kilometers south of Winnemucca, Nevada and 26 kilometers east of Coeur Mining’s (NYSE:CDE) Rochester silver mine. A 1.2-kilometer-long vein system has been identified on the property to date. Significant gold and silver values have been recovered as well, including up to 9.4 g/t gold and up to 1,500 g/t silver.

As part of NV Gold’s 2019 exploration program, the company completed mapping, sampling and drill target generation at the Root Springs project. The company traced the Root Springs vein system at surface for over 1,200-meters along strike and determined that there are two spatially distinct vein sets present. NV Gold also collected 39 rock-chip samples from the property. Sampling returned values up to 1,495 g/t silver and up to 8.02 g/t gold, along with positive base metal results of up to 0.51 percent copper, 0.68 percent lead and 0.89 percent zinc.

The Painted Hills property is 17 miles southwest of Denio, Nevada. A historical exploration program tested a portion of the 1.5-kilometer strike length on the property. Previous operators have conducted historical drilling on the property which identified a Middle Miocene gold system that shares similarities with the Sleeper vein deposit which is 85 kilometers southeast of the property.

The Cooks Creek project is eight miles west of Barrick Gold’s Pipeline mine and is adjacent to the Cortez and Cortez Hills deposits, which contain over 25 million ounces of gold. NV Gold has intersected 21.3 meters grading 2.32 g/t gold at the Main zone in 2016. Samples from the Dinner zone returned up to 2.45 ppm gold.

The Baker Spring project is a sediment-hosted, Carlin-style gold project located 12 miles north of Newmont’s Long Canyon mine, which contains a mineral reserve of 1.2 million ounces of gold grading 2.31 g/t gold. The Baker Spring project remains undrilled to date.

The Seven Devils project is 55 miles south of Winnemucca, Nevada. Widespread gold has been identified on the project, grading up to 2.6 g/t gold over a 3.3-kilometer strike length.

The Larus project is 23 miles northwest of Eureka, Nevada, 30 miles southeast of Barrick Gold’s Cortez Hills mine, two miles northwest of General Moly’s (TSX:GMO) Mt. Hope molybdenum deposit and six miles east of the Gold Bar district. Previous operators recovered values of 3.2 g/t gold on the property and delineated a strike length of approximately 4,000 feet.

Silicified Ov black shale from megabreccia below detachment fault 1.495 ppm

The Gold Cloud project is 17 miles south of Barrick Gold’s Ruby Hill gold mine in the Eureka mining district. The property has seen limited historical exploration where anomalous gold values were traced for 2,300 feet along a 6,000-foot system. Values of 2.8 g/t gold have been recovered on the property.

The Queens project is eight miles southeast of Kinross’ Round Mountain gold mine and five miles northeast of the Manhattan gold district. Approximately 500 meters of historical shallow drilling was completed in the early 1990s. Results include 23 meters grading 0.793 g/t gold, 17 meters grading 0.462 g/t gold and 14 meters grading 0.530 g/t gold.

The Long Island project is 12 miles southeast of Kinross Gold’s (TSX:K) Round Mountain gold deposit and 6.5 miles east of the Manhattan gold district. The property has seen limited historical exploration to date and hosts anomalous gold, arsenic and mercury values.

The Oasis project is located within the Goldfield mining district, which has produced 4 million ounces of gold in the Walker Lane Belt. NV Gold has recovered a surface gold sample that graded 6 g/t gold.

Centerra Gold (TSX:CG) completed a drill program on the property in 2010 and 2011. Results from the program include 96.1 meters grading 0.26 g/t gold, 30.5 meters grading 0.40 g/t gold and 169.2 meters grading 0.22 g/t gold.

The gold mineralization on the property correlates with copper, molybdenum, tin, potassium, potassium alteration and a-type quartz veinlets. There is potential to expand the copper-gold system at depth and to the south.

NV Gold is acquiring the Slumber gold property located in the Jackson Mountains. The property is approximately 50 miles northwest of Winnemucca, Humboldt County and 21 miles west of the Sleeper gold deposit.

The Slumber project is one of several high-grade epithermal gold systems on trend with the western splays and associated fault-fracture zones throughout the Jackson Mountains, Bilk Creek Mountains and up into Oregon. The splays and fault zones host numerous deposits, including Sleeper, Sulphur-Hycroft, Goldbanks, Blue Mountain and Sandman, among others.

To date, NV Gold has completed an initial exploration program at Slumber comprised of mapping, sampling and two geophysical surveys. Through the program, the company has identified a large hidden structural gold target that coincides with a 2,000-meter-long by 300-meter-wide magnetic low. NV Gold intends to follow up on the anomaly with a 1,200-meter drill program.

Hole SL-27 Returns 112m @ 0.26 gpt, Hole SL 25 Returns 47m @ 0.32 gpt

NV Gold Corporation (TSXV:NVX)(OTCQB:NVGLF)(FSE:8NV) ("NV Gold" or the "Company") The Company reported an update today on its 2021-2 Slumber Project in Nevada, USA

NV Gold is pleased to announce positive results from the successful completion of the 2021-22 drilling program at its 100%-owned Slumber Project. In addition to enlarging the footprint of the epithermal mineralizing system, this recent program intersected higher grades in certain areas and indicates mineralization remains open laterally and to depth.

Figure 1: Location of Slumber project and nearby mining operations, past and present.

Slumber Gold Project, Humboldt County, Nevada

Three drill campaigns have been conducted between August 2019 and early 2022; 29 RC holes (reverse circulation) have been completed, totaling 5,200.9 m (17,063.3 ft).

The initial two drilling campaigns focused on a bonanza-style model and targeted a tightly-confined, silicified, and mineralized area in the central part of the Property. While the early drilling did not encounter the desired high-grade structures, it did intercept significant zones of low-grade-oxide gold along the northern limits of the initial drill area. In 2021 NV Gold reinterpreted this zone of mineralized silicification, using CSAMT data and IP-Resistivity to evaluate a wide-open resistivity zone illuminating its correlation with gold mineralization to the north. As a result, most of the 2021-2022 drill holes did encounter significant thicknesses of low-grade-oxide gold distributed over an area of 800+ meters by 350+ meters with thicknesses of 100-150 meters or more (see figures 2-5). Most 2021-2022 holes bottomed in gold mineralization. While drilling was depth-limited by ongoing equipment breakdowns, labor challenges and ground water, the results were highly encouraging.

The Company reports that Slumber has now been demonstrated to host a low-grade bulk-tonnage, oxide gold system, which remains open in multiple directions. Drilling remains very widely-spaced over this large area, with reasonable expectations of locating structural and lithologically favorable zones of stronger grades.

Figure 2 - Rock types at Slumber (Trf and Trx are the main host rocks for gold while Tra and Pz are mostly barren).

"NV Gold has successfully delineated a substantial near-surface, oxide-gold mineralized gold system on its Slumber property in Humboldt County, Nevada. The gold zone is very homogenous and continuous, and preliminary AuCN tests returned potentially high gold recoveries. The gold system remains open in multiple directions and at depth. The northern part of the Property and most of the southern part remain untested. However, having mostly gold values of around 0.2 g/t Au compels NV Gold to test for better grades and thicker intercepts. Recently received assays of up to 1.5 g/t Au in SL-27 are indicators that higher grades can be present in the area. More fieldwork and results from the undertaken Mercury-vapor and biochemistry surveys will assist pinpointing higher-grade structures with the goal of enhancing Slumber to economic grade levels. The property now appears to have good potential for a +million-ounce target. While the grades encountered so far are sub-economic at current conditions, the drill-spacing is wide and good upside remains for more favorable zones of structural preparation or favorable lithologies",stated Thomas Klein, VP Exploration, NV Gold.

NV Gold CEO, John Watson commented - "These encouraging results have extended our understanding of this large, oxide gold system, elevating our expectations for an ultimate economic discovery. Oxide gold discoveries have been rare in Nevada over the past 15+ years despite intensive exploration efforts by many companies. Slumber remained undiscovered primarily because of its setting, largely obscured by recent sediments and volcanics. Its lateral and vertical extent remains open and compelling. The sheer size of the mineralized system is important, given the implications of a large, new, gold system in a relatively unexplored part of Nevada. The next program at Slumber will be a modest core program, designed to twin and deepen two of our existing reverse circulation holes. The goal is to further extend the mineralization and identify any potential RC sampling loss of values. We look forward to the next phases for Slumber, looking to extend the system both laterally and at depth. As drill density adds understanding, we can target zones of higher grades, such as demonstrated in hole SL-27."

NV Gold Corporation (TSXV:NVX)(OTCQB:NVGLF)(FSE:8NV) ("NV Gold" or the "Company") The Company announced today an update on its Slumber project in Nevada, USA

Slumber Gold Project, Humboldt County, Nevada

Our Q4/Q1-2021/22 reverse circulation drill program at Slumber has been completed. Twelve (12) reverse circulation drill holes totaling approximately 2,350 meters (7,710 feet) have been drilled and sampled. Results have been reported for the first five holes and the remaining seven holes are being submitted for assay. These final holes encountered longer thicknesses of silicified, oxide mineralization, distributed over an area in excess of 900 meters by 500+ meters, with drill-site RC chip logging having recorded thicknesses of 100-150 meters or more of mineralized material. The last two (deepest) holes revealed mineralization to depths of nearly 300 meters. The Company reports that Slumber has now been demonstrated to host a low-grade bulk-tonnage, oxide gold system, which remains open in multiple directions. Drilling is still very wide-spaced over this large area, with reasonable expectations of structural and stratigraphically favorable zones of higher grades yet to be encountered.

"I am very pleased that the "Low-Resistivity Model" has confirmed that alteration and related gold mineralization correlate extremely well with the low resistivity zones. All the reverse circulation holes drilled into the easternlow-resistivity extension have intercepted the same type of silicification and oxidation, suggesting that width of the Slumber gold system now appears to exceed half a kilometer (see Figures 1 & 2). NV Gold is also conducting a mercury-vapor survey which will be supported by additional biochemistry sampling to assist in locating potential higher-grade feeder structures." commented Thomas Klein VP Exploration NV Gold.

The Company plans further work at Slumber to include both reverse-circulation and diamond core drilling. A Plan of Operations is envisaged to allow for the larger program.

John Watson, President and CEO of NV Gold added "This years' work at Slumber continues to enlarge the dimensions of a new oxide gold system in Nevada. Our goal is the discovery of a million+ ounce gold deposit, building upon the current program's success. We believe that Slumber shows excellent potential to achieve this goal. As we have stated previously, we feel that there is great potential for new discoveries in Nevada for those willing to take the risks to explore obscured or covered areas of interest."

NV Gold Corporation (TSXV:NVX)(OTCQB:NVGLF)(FSE:8NV) ("NV Gold" or the "Company") The Company announced today an update on its active projects in Nevada, USA

Slumber Gold Project, Humboldt County, Nevada

Our Q4/Q1-2021/22 drill program at Slumber has currently completed ten reverse circulation drill holes totaling approximately 2012 meters. Two RC and two core holes remain to be drilled during the current program. Results have been received for the first five holes and are summarized in the table below (see Table 1). These holes have encountered significant thicknesses of low-grade oxide gold mineralization, distributed over an area over 800+ meters by 300+ meters with thicknesses in excess of 100-150 meters. Most the holes bottomed in gold mineralization, depth-limited by ongoing equipment challenges and ground water. Slumber is now demonstrated to be a significant low-grade gold system, open in all directions, especially down-dip. Importantly, the current drilling program has confirmed the low-resistor zones from our CSAMT work are indeed mineralized (Refer to press release on Sept. 7th, 2021). These low-resistor zones reflect hydrothermally brecciated and intensely silicifiedvolcanics with consistent gold values (see Figure 3). As reported previously, the Slumber mineralization is largely obscured by recent gravels, making surface sampling and mapping largely ineffective. Consequently, NVX has recently completed an IP/Resistivity and is undertaking Mercury-vapor and biochemistry surveys over the target area to assist in further target definition (stated Thomas Klein, VP Exploration, NV Gold).

The Company has also performed a preliminary cyanide solubility test on ten, widely distributed drill intervals with very encouraging results demonstrating high initial recoveries (+95%).

The balance of this drill campaign is now focused on testing the deeper parts of the Slumber system, further examining areas illuminated by the recent IP/Resistivity work.

John Watson, CEO of NV Gold commented "The successful work completed so far at Slumber has been technically challenging, with winter conditions, personnel constraints, water inflow challenges and slow lab results. Despite this, these results have confirmed the presence of a new, significant, oxide gold system in an unexplored area of Nevada. The gold zone remains open in almost all dimensions and has potential for higher grades at depth and within structurally-prepared zones being identified by geophysics and shallow drill intercepts. The project is now considered to be in the early-stages of a discovery. We appreciate our investors' patience during our exciting work at Slumber."

The current drilling further confirms the correlation of the alteration and mineralization to the low resistor zone identified by last year's CSAMT work. While this alteration appears promising for gold mineralization, values are expected to remain in the lower range as we continue to improve our definition of the gold system and sharpen the subsequent targeting of feeder zones. Further results from this program are expected to be received in late March or early April, again depending upon laboratory constraints related to COVID and staffing.

Table 1 - Slumber 2019-2022 significant gold intercepts.

The Company continues its focus on Nevada and the Great Basin, one of the largest and most productive gold provinces in the world. On a regional-scale, Nevada is thought by many to be a thoroughly explored gold province. Much of the near surface gold that has been found over the past 40 years has already been mined or is being mined today. To find significant new deposits, the successful explorer needs to employ modern, more sensitive sampling and interpretive techniques and a willingness to take risks with the drill. The breadth of experience of our staff and advisors gives us our advantage. Over 50% of Nevada is covered by recent basin sediments or volcanic cover, which often obscures the classic, visible expressions of mineralization. These covered areas are composed of the same rocks with the same temporal placement as the gold deposits found in the nearby ranges. There is a strong likelihood that other, similar-sized deposits await discovery! Significant discovery potential continues to remain in one of the pre-eminent gold provinces on Earth. The Company has a strong property position with over 20 projects, ranging from Greenfields to advanced "pre-discovery". Our property portfolio covers a number of geologic environments at varying levels of advancement. Holding costs for most of these properties are minimal, particularly those that are held as joint venture or lease-out possibilities.

It is our plan to drill 4-6 projects in the 12-18-month time horizon, providing a good news flow and multiple opportunities for success. We look forward to a productive and successful exploration season ahead.

GoldHaven Resources Corp. (CSE: GOH) (OTCQB: GHVNF) (FSE: 4QS) ("GoldHaven" or the "Company") announces that it has prioritized a follow-up campaign including soil grid extensions at newly identified target areas as well as prospecting and mapping of extensive newly acquired contiguous land positions in the belt. Given preliminary results from its summer work program at Smoke Mountain, VTEM and LiDAR airborne surveys for the newly staked ground have also been scheduled for completion in October 2022 .

GoldHaven CEO, Justin Canivet commented "Our exploration results at Smoke Mountain this summer have prompted a high priority follow-up field program . The objective of the campaign is to obtain geologically-based vectors to porphyry and epithermal targets on this highly prospective and exciting property . Lab results and airborne survey interpretation from our summer program are expected in the coming weeks and we look forward to further leveraging these data and adding shareholder value."

GoldHaven has re-engaged Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd . to complete a comprehensive follow-up exploration program at Smoke Mountain. This program is focused on extending soil sampling grids at priority target areas defined in the recently completed 2022 summer program. Furthermore, the field work will focus on p rospecting and mapping newly staked contiguous land positions . Detailed geological mapping, along with the soil geochemical work will improve the interpretation of the geophysical datasets and constrain target locations.

GoldHaven has engaged Geotech Ltd. to conduct Helicopter-Borne VTEM TM and Magnetic Geophysical Surveys for the purpose of investigating the mineral potential over the extensive contiguous land position at Smoke Mountain. The proposed survey is approximately 721 line-kms over 1 block with a planned start date of late October . The survey will take 5-7 days to complete with the intention of targeting intermediate sulfidation polymetallic vein systems.

GoldHaven will be benefiting from Geotech Ltd's Versatile Time-Domain Electromagnetic ( VTEM TM ) geophysical system, which is excellent at locating discrete conductive anomalies as well as mapping lateral and vertical variations in resistivity .

Full waveform recording will also be employed to achieve very clean early-time measurements to effectively resolve near surface structures . GoldHaven will benefit from Geotech's Concentric Transmitter - Receiver geometry, which ensures positive anomaly location and results in huge time and costs savings as there will be no need for ground follow-up. The technology has successfully been deployed globally for targeting work in epithermal precious metal districts.

GoldHaven management seeks to acquire a Multi-Year Area-Based Exploration Permit for drilling in Q2 2023 . The extensive geological, geochemical and geophysical campaigns from 2022 are yielding excellent preliminary porphyry and epithermal-style targets . GoldHaven is planning to carefully evaluate all of the obtained data during late 2022 and early 2023, with the objective of defining drill targets for testing going forward.

GoldHaven's Smoke Mountain land position was recently doubled from 4,190 hectares to 8,645 hectares based on promising preliminary results from geological, geochemical and geophysical surveys conducted during the 2022 Smoke Mountain summer exploration program. The resulting large, contiguous land position defines a commanding land position in an emerging BC porphyry-epithermal belt . Copper, gold, and silver mineralization is extensive in the region with several promising new discoveries and extensions to mineralization (see below).

GoldHaven's Smoke Mountain property is strategically situated within an extensive 85 kilometre polymetallic belt that is highly prospective for gold-silver-zinc epithermal systems, porphyry copper-gold deposits, as well as gold and silver-rich magmatic-hydrothermal occurrences . The property is road accessible from Houston via a series of gravel forest service roads off Highway 16.

Exploration activity in the area has been renewed in this historic mining region , propelled by the ongoing expansion of advanced exploration projects and mines including:

Note: the mines and advanced exploration and development projects in the Central BC porphyry-epithermal provide geologic context for the Smoke Mountain Property, but this is not necessarily indicative that the Smoke Mountain Property hosts similar grades or tonnages of mineralization.

The historic Central BC porphyry-epithermal belt is re-emerging as an important copper-gold-silver jurisdiction as evidenced by increased staking activity and exploration drilling. The region is quickly becoming known for its long mineralized drill intercepts including Universal Copper's 216m interval grading 0.54% CuEq ( click here for release) and has the potential to host some of the largest copper-polymetallic discoveries in British Columbia .

In recent news, Surge Copper expanded their Ootsa project by 96% to a total of 439Mt grading 0.32% CuEq ( click here for release) increasing their total mineralized inventory in the southern part of this belt to over 1 billion tonnes (measured and indicated).

These results in the immediate vicinity of GoldHaven's Smoke Mountain project showcase the exceptional regional endowment and metallogenic character of the Late Cretaceous arc rocks hosted within this belt.  Among several emerging targets on the property, GoldHaven is working on a newly-identified 2.5km long untested and under-explored alteration and mineralization trend currently being examined by our field team at Smoke Mountain .

Note: The adjacent mines and advanced exploration and development projects in the Central BC porphyry-epithermal provide geologic context for the Smoke Mountain Property, but this is not necessarily indicative that the Smoke Mountain Property hosts similar grades or tonnages of mineralization.

Daniel MacNeil , P.Geo, a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, has read and approved all technical and scientific information contained in this news release. Mr. MacNeil is Technical Advisor to GoldHaven Resources Corp.

GoldHaven Resources Corp. is a Canadian junior precious metals exploration Company focused on acquiring and exploring highly prospective land packages in both Canada and Chile . GoldHaven maintains a strategic presence in the gold and silver rich Maricunga Gold Belt of Northern Chile which is host to several mining and advanced exploration projects including Salares Norte (Gold Fields), Esperanza (Kingsgate Consolidated), La Coipa ( Kinross ), Cerro Maricunga ( Fenix Gold ), Lobo-Marte ( Kinross ), Volcan (Volcan), Refugio ( Kinross /Bema), Caspiche (Goldcorp/Barrick), and Cerro Casale (Goldcorp/Barrick). The Company has identified a total of 12 high-priority targets at its Alicia and Roma project areas in the Maricunga within a prominent regional NW-SE structural trend along strike from Gold Fields' Salares Norte deposit (5.2 million ounces of Gold 7) . These targets have been designated "High Priority" due to the extent, pervasive alteration, favourable geology, highly anomalous rock geochemical results, and their relative proximity to existing deposits. GoldHaven is also making exploration progress at its Smoke Mountain property ( Canada ) which is strategically located in the Central British Columbia Porphyry-Epithermal Belt in close proximity to Surge Copper's Berg project, as well as its Pat's Pond project in Newfoundland's Central Newfoundland Gold Belt ( Canada ). Pat's Pond is strategically located less than 20km from Marathon Gold's 3.14 Moz 8 Valentine Gold Project and on strike from the Boomerang/Domino VMS deposit. Pat's Pond is highly prospective for gold, copper, silver and zinc and has large scale discovery potential. GoldHaven engages proactively with local and Indigenous rightsholders and seeks to develop relationships and agreements that are mutually beneficial to all stakeholders.

Note: The deposits/mines near GoldHaven's properties provide geologic context, but this is not necessarily indicative that GoldHaven properties host similar grades or tonnages of mineralization.

Segovia's trailing 12-months' total gold production at the end of August 2022 was 212,450 ounces, up about 3% over 2021. The Company remains on track to meet its annual production guidance for 2022 of between 210,000 and 225,000 ounces of gold.

Benefitting from the completion of the expansion of capacity at its Maria Dama processing plant at Segovia in August 2022, GCM Mining processed a total of 57,073 tonnes in the month, representing a daily processing rate of 1,841 tpd, compared with 50,245 tonnes and 1,621 tpd in August 2021. Segovia's head grades averaged 11.3 g/t in August 2022 compared with 12.0 g/t in August last year. For the first eight months of 2022, a total of 401,394 tonnes (equivalent to 1,652 tpd) were processed at Segovia at an average head grade of 12.0 g/t compared with a total of 365,805 tonnes (equivalent to 1,505 tpd) at an average head grade of 12.7 g/t in the first eight months last year. Production activities in the Company's mines and in the small-scale mines in its Segovia mining title in July and August were impacted by a temporary shortage in the supply of detonators for explosives. The situation is beginning to normalize and this should benefit production through the balance of the year.

The Company also processed an average of 107 tpd of tailings in August 2022 at its polymetallic plant at Segovia resulting in the production of approximately 133 tonnes of zinc concentrate and approximately 106 tonnes of lead concentrate. Payable production from the concentrates in August 2022 is estimated to total approximately 124,000 pounds of zinc, 137,000 pounds of lead, 9,900 ounces of silver and 128 ounces of gold. Actual payable quantities are subject to change and will be finalized once the concentrates are shipped. To date, the Company has produced a total of approximately 926 tonnes of lead concentrate and 1,071 tonnes of zinc concentrate which have been stockpiled. Transportation of the first concentrates to port has commenced this week and the first shipment to the international offtake customer is expected to take place before the end of September.

GCM Mining is a mid-tier gold producer with a proven track record of mine building and operating in Latin America. In Colombia, the Company is the leading high-grade underground gold and silver producer with several mines in operation at its Segovia Operations. Segovia produced 206,389 ounces of gold in 2021. In Guyana, the Company is advancing its fully funded Toroparu Project, one of the largest undeveloped gold/copper projects in the Americas, which is expected to commence production of more than 200,000 ounces of gold annually in 2024. GCM Mining has equity interests in Aris Gold Corporation (~44%; TSX: ARIS; Colombia – Marmato, Soto Norte; Canada - Juby), Denarius Metals Corp. (~32%; TSX-V: DSLV; Spain – Lomero-Poyatos and Colombia – Guia Antigua, Zancudo) and Western Atlas Resources Inc. (~26%; TSX-V: WA: Nunavut – Meadowbank).

Falcon Gold Corp. (TSXV:FG)(GR:3FA)(OTCQB:FGLDF); ("Falcon" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that exploration has commenced at the Company's 100% owned Gander North Property, with initial results now available from its reconnaissance exploration program. The project commenced in late June, with initial prospecting and till sampling. Preliminary efforts have identified numerous evidence for quartz veins, including subcrop and float. Surface samples collected to date have been submitted for assay; and initial results have returned values of up to 885 ppb gold from sub cropping quartz veins, up to 0.15% copper, and up to 26.8 gpt silver from quartz float. Several samples have returned anomalous tungsten, and further analysis is required to confirm the content. Initial results for gold are presented in figure 1. Multiple geophysical targets were identified over the project area earlier this year through review of publicly available datasets, and these will be the focus of ongoing reconnaissance. Detailed work, including systematic sampling and geological mapping will commence this fall to better define targets in advance of drilling. Work permit applications have been submitted for the drill program, and approval is pending

Mr. Karim Rayani, Falcon's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Excellent progress is being made at our Gander North project, preliminary results are more than just encouraging with surface samples as high as 885 ppb gold. We now have multiple geophysical targets to go after that have been identified - with the help of publicly available data sets, we have now submitted our drill plan application and are awaiting final approval for our inaugural drill campaign. This is an opportunistic time for Falcon, as we have set ourselves apart from our peers. We control a sizeable area of influence totaling 108,000 hectares when combining this with our JV partner Marvel Discovery at Baie Verte and Golden Brook the number jumps to 150,000 hectares making us one of the dominant players on the island. We look forward to reporting back on the remaining sample results with the drill permit news when received."

About the Gander North Property

The Gander North Property is comprised of 406 claims within two blocks covering 10,150 hectares, and is located in two blocks, one immediately south of Gander, Newfoundland (see figure 1), and the second block immediately east of the town. The property occurs within the Gander Zone and is proximal to the

Figure 1 - Initial results from 2022 sampling stations at the Gander North Property.

Dog Bay-Appleton-Grub fault system, a crustal scale zone that extends southwest from the north coast of Newfoundland for nearly 200km to Gander. Structural corridors in central Newfoundland have shown to be intimately associated with recent gold discoveries including New Found Gold's Queensway project located approximately 9km from Falcon's project, an area of considerable potential that made national headlines recently in an article by the Financial Post (https://financialpost.com/commodities/mining/eric-sprott-makes-his-biggest-bet-yet-on-what-he-believes-could-be-the-greatest-gold-discovery-in-the-history-of-canada).

Northeast trending structural lineaments first recognized by Gander Gold have returned spectacular results from soil geochemistry sampling surveys as evidenced with recent published results of 1432 parts per billion gold. These NW trending zones are interpreted to continue onto Falcon's Gander North Property. An interpretation of the regional magnetics show NNE trending, ophiolite bearing thrust faults are cross-cut by a series of brittle NE trending fault-fractures, which indicate a regional setting similar to the highly prospective eastern Exploits Subzone (see figure 2). Gold mineralization models along the Exploits Subzone are based on structural settings analogous to those reported for Fosterville in Victoria, Australia (https://exploitsdiscovery.com/projects/). Tungsten mineralization models indicate a common association with intrusion-related gold deposition that have a genetic association to felsic intrusions, particularly within cratonic margins or back-arc positions relative to continental margin arcs, or within continental collisional settings.

First Tellurium Corp. (CSE: FTEL OTC FSTTF ) (the "Company" or "First Tellurium"), reports that the US Department of Energy (DOE) has launched the Cadmium Telluride Accelerator Consortium a $20 million initiative designed to make cadmium telluride (CdTe) solar cells less expensive and more efficient. The Consortium's intent is to spur technological advancements in CdTe manufacturing to help increase America's competitiveness, bolster domestic innovation and advance clean electricity deployment. The initiative augments President Biden's goal of achieving a net-zero economy by 2050.

"This news further supports our efforts to expand and develop the tellurium resource at the Deer Horn Project," said First Tellurium President and CEO Tyrone Docherty. "The demand for tellurium continues to increase, not only for solar cells, but for new battery technology and other applications. Currently the United States imports 95% of its required tellurium."

First Tellurium's Deer Horn Property, located in west-central British Columbia, hosts one of the world's only silver-gold-tellurium properties with an NI 43-101 compliant tellurium resource. The Company is also exploring the Klondike tellurium-gold property in Colorado, a high-grade tellurium prospect held previously by First Solar, Inc., one of the world's largest solar panel producers.

According to 360 Research, the CdTe solar cell market is expected to exceed $10 billion in 2027, more than double the roughly $4 billion in CdTe cells installed in 2021. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) estimates that roughly 40% of tellurium consumed in the U.S. during 2021 went to production of CdTe solar cells.

CdTe solar cells, made from cadmium and tellurium, were first developed in the United States. Today they make up about 20% of the market for solar modules. They offer the lowest cost-per-watt technology , have the shortest energy payback time and are the least carbon intensive in production.

"Major cadmium-telluride manufacturers, and in particular First Solar Inc., will need new amounts of tellurium to meet market needs," said Docherty. "According to the USGS, First Solar already consumes roughly 30% of the world's tellurium production."

First Solar, Inc. (Nasdaq: FSLR), broke ground in August 2021 on its third and largest CdTe solar cell manufacturing facility, located in Ohio.

The new 3.3 gigawatt (GW)DC plant, scheduled to open mid-2023, represents a $680 million investment. When fully operational, the facility is expected to scale the company's Ohio manufacturing footprint to a total annual capacity of 6 GWDC, which is expected make it the largest fully vertically integrated solar manufacturing complex outside China.

First Solar also intends to build its fourth domestic factory, with an annual capacity of 3.5 GWDC, in the US Southeast. The company expects to invest up to $1 billion in the new factory, which, contingent upon permitting and pending approval of various federal, state, regional, and local incentives, is expected to commence operations in 2025.

A December, 2021 report by S&P Global Market Intelligence noted: "First Solar's plan to spend $1.36 billion to help increase module capacity to 16 GW by 2024 seems certain to strain the tellurium market. If the company achieves its goals, its annual demand for the mineral will exceed last year's estimated global production by up to 70%, according to data from a November report by researchers at the Institute of Environmental Science and Technology at the Autonomous University of Barcelona."

Seeing the growing need for domestic supplies of tellurium, Rio Tinto invested approximately $2.9 million to build a plant capable of recovering roughly 20 metric tons of this semiconductive metalloid as a byproduct of the copper produced at its Kennecott Mine in Utah. First Solar has committed to purchasing all the tellurium produced at Kennecott.

"There are so many factors aligning for a robust tellurium market going forward," said Docherty. "With the U.S. pushing heavily to expand North American supply chains, we're positioning First Tellurium strategically to help meet that growing demand."

Presenting at the NAI 500 Resource Conference First Tellurium also reports that it will be presenting at the NAI 500 GCFF Global Resource Investment Conference , September 24th, 2022 at the Richmond Sheraton Hotel. GCFF is pleased to announce the return to in-person attendance for the first time since the pandemic.

Edgemont Gold Corp. (CSE: EDGM) (FSE: EG8) ("Edgemont") is pleased to announce the assay results from its recent Phase II drill program at the Dungate copper-gold porphyry project, where a total of five holes totaling 2063 metres were drilled in the spring of 2022. Dungate is located 6 km south of the town of Houston in the Omineca Mining Division of B.C.

Highlights from this drilling include:

  In addition, additional assaying of Hole 2021-04, drilled in 2021, returned an interval of 55 m @ 0.20 g/t Au (previously reported as 27m @ 0.24 g/t Au).

The target for this drill program was following up on structurally controlled gold zones discovered in the 2021 Phase 1 drill program (see March 28, 2022 news release). These zones were associated with coincident magnetic and IP anomalies within and proximal to a highly altered and sulphide mineralized quartz feldspar porphyry ("QFP") intrusion. QFP was intersected in 4 holes of this Phase 2 program, with hole DG22-08 intersecting a 279 meter zone (261m - 540m) of complete quartz flooded replacement of what is interpreted as intermediate volcanics. Unfortunately, this quartz zone was not mineralized. A map of the drill holes completed at Dungate can be accessed below.

Gold mineralization was encountered both in the host volcanics adjacent to the QFP and within the QFP intrusive which generally had 2-10% sulphides occurring as disseminations, replacements, fracture fillings, veins, and as breccias. The surrounding volcanic host rock to the intrusion was also variably altered, presumably by the proximity to the QFP intrusive.

Broad anomalous copper and molybdenum intervals were intersected in the heart of the QFP indicating pervasive mineralization, but with no higher grade concentrations (>0.20% Cu) encountered.

Significant drill results are as follows (In general - Gold zones >0.10 g/t Au with anomalous Silver, Copper and Molybdenum):

  1 DG21-04 intersection previously reported as 27m @ 0.24 g/t Au (NR March 28, 2022)

Drill results from 2022 have confirmed the structurally controlled gold mineralization indicated in the 2021 program with gold deposition on the periphery of the QFP and into the adjacent volcanic host rocks. In the opinion of Edgemont management, economic intersections of gold have not yet been encountered. Due to the wide spacing of the current drilling it is unknown whether a higher concentration of gold exists lateral to the currently intersected zones. Edgemont continues to assess these latest drill results, along with prior data, and will provide an update on future exploration plans at Dungate in due course.

This news release reports the assay results from five (5) drill holes from which 871 core samples were assayed. The Company inserted certified standards and blanks into the sample stream as a check on laboratory Quality Control (QC). Drill core samples are cut by diamond saw at a core facilities in Houston, BC. A halved core sample is left in the core box. The other half core is sampled and transported by Gold Terra personnel in securely sealed bags to MSALabs in Terrace, BC for crushing and grinding, then transport to MSALabs analytical facility in Langley, BC. Ground and were subjected to 30g fire assay with AA finish (FAS-111) and Multi-element ICP-ES (ICP-130) Aqua Regia analysis (34 elements). MSALabs routinely inserts certified standards, blanks and pulp duplicates, and results of all QC samples are reported.

Because of the wide spacing of drill holes, the orientation of the mineralized zones reported here is not known, and Edgemont has not interpreted true thickness.

The technical information contained in this news release has been approved by Joseph Campbell, P. Geo, a Director of Edgemont, who is a Qualified Person as defined in "National Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects."

Edgemont is actively exploring the Dungate copper/gold porphyry project located just 6 km southeast of Houston, B.C., in a region with a history of successful mining projects including the Equity Silver Mine, Imperial Metals' Huckleberry Mine, and the more recent gold-silver discovery at Sun Summit Minerals' Buck Project which sits just 7 km to the south.
