GGL RESOURCES CORP. The Company is also pleased to announce that it has staked additional claims to better cover the porphyry target and to acquire additional gold-silver veins elsewhere on this district-scale property.
Highlights from this Press Release include:
Mapping identified six intrusive phases hosting extensive stockworks, sheeted veins and breccia zones, locally containing limonite after sulphides; Soil geochemical anomalies coincide with the stockwork zones and potentially represent a leached porphyry system;

Geological mapping identified six separate intrusive phases within the
Large magmatic breccias containing limonite altered cubes and clots, often up to 2 cm across, were identified on the north side of the target area near historical workings containing copper mineralization. A float sample comprising limonite clots collected from the breccia returned 6.29% copper and 203 g/t silver. The exact timing of the brecciation is not yet known, but is thought to be a late event as it includes clasts of mafic dykes which are seen elsewhere on surface cutting the other intrusive phases.
Only a few small historical workings are located within the vicinity of Le Champ, and most are pits along gently south-dipping fault structures containing malachite and azurite. This copper mineralization is believed to be sourced from deeper in the system and to have migrated to surface along the fault conduits. There is no evidence Le Champ has previously been drilled.
The Company believes that the results from this work program are highly encouraging, particularly when added to previously announced results from earlier geochemical and geophysical surveys. It is believed that the abundant stockwork veining and silica alteration seen at surface mark the upper levels of a buried porphyry system. The strongly elevated molybdenum values and more subdued, but still noteworthy, copper results are consistent with a leached system, and suggest that stronger mineralization could be found at depth. Future work will be directed to better understand the extent of the porphyry system, both on surface and at depth. An Induced Polarization survey is planned for spring 2024.

Additionally, 11 claims were staked within an extensive gold-silver vein system located about 3.5 km northeast of Le Champ. These claims are contiguous with the Company's existing claim block and are located 700 m along strike to the west of the main underground workings on the Orleans Vein. There are numerous historical surface and underground workings on the new claims. These workings have not yet been mapped or sampled by the Company, but mineralization closely resembles that found in high-grade veins system elsewhere on the Gold Point property. Systematic surveying and sampling of the newly acquired veins will be undertaken in spring 2024, in conjunction with the IP survey at Le Champ.
Setting of Le Champ
Le Champ is located about 3.5 km west of the gold-rich veins that have been the focus of historical exploration at Gold Point. The porphyry lies within the Late to
