Grande Portage Resources Ltd. announced drill results from its Herbert Gold Property in S.E. Alaska. Five diamond drill holes were drilled from the AB pad for a total of 3631.5 meters. Pad AB was located farther north than any previous pads to be able to explore the deeper projections of the Goat, Sleeping Giant, Ridge and Main Veins.

The pad was situated in the unmineralized gneisses, tonolites and metasediments to the northeast of the major geologic contact with the Herbert quartz diorite which hosts the gold-bearing veins so all the holes gave good geologic information about that major contact before encountering the target gold-bearing unit. Hole 22AB-1 was lost before reaching its targets and could not be re-entered. Hole 22AB-3 went completely through the quartz diorite and into the younger metasediments to the west of and underlying the quartz diorite.

As previously disclosed, the 2022 drilling program progressed at an uncharacteristically slower rate than expected which meant that several highly prospective holes and targets that were planned, from multiple drill pads, could not be achieved before the season ended. Some of the most prospective targets planned for the 2022 drill program were in that category and will be drilled in 2023. Past drilling over many years has confirmed that the Herbert gold project is a high-grade deposit.

The chief primary gold-bearing veins at the Herbert gold project are strong, persistent and extend from the Western boundary fault to the Eastern fault, a distance averaging nearly one kilometer. Strong gold mineralization has been identified almost everywhere along these structures, both laterally and to the deepest limits of drilling over the last number of years. Much of the shallower portions of the veins have been tested with good to superb results.

The Company will resume drilling in the late spring and publish new details concerning its drill plan in the near future. All core samples are cleaned and photographed before logging and sampling by a registered professional geologist. Samples were analysed at ALS Canada Ltd. at its North Vancouver facilities using conventional preparation techniques and analysed using Au-ICP21 for gold with screened metallic analyses for samples where visible gold was noted.

ME-MS41 techniques were used to determine additional element concentrations. Blanks and standards were inserted in the field as well as in the laboratory with all checks reporting acceptable results. ALS in independent of the Company and certified ISO-17025.
