Harvest Gold Corporation Provides Update on First Two Holes of the First Drill Program at its 100% Owned Emerson Property
and stockwork silicification and clay alteration from 290 to 795 m depth. Mineralization to 795 m depth includes pyrite dissemination, quartz-pyrite ± molybdenite veins, pyrite veinlets, and galena- sphalerite veins. Two holes completed; Two diamond drill holes totaling 1,098 metres have been completed to date. Drill hole EM22-019 was completed to a hole depth of 795m, while drill hole EM22-020 (collared 235m east of EM22-019) reached a depth of 303m along the same section. EM22-020 was terminated before proposed depth due to ground conditions. Core samples are being dispatched from the company's core logging facility in Houston, B.C. to ALS Global preparation facilities in Kamloops, B.C. Assays results are pending. Drill hole lithologies: Dominant lithologies encountered in holes EMR22-019 and -020 were feldspar porphyry ("FSPO"), feldspar porphyry breccia ("FSPO-BXX") and andesite ("ANDS"). The dominant alteration types are silicification and clay alteration. A zonation in alteration, from a mantle of clay-dominated alteration in the upper 100 - 150 metres of drill holes -019 and -020, gives way to a zone of strong silicification to intense silicification beneath. Minor
sphalerite-galena-pyrite mineralization is present in the upper clay-altered portions of the two holes. A zone of feldspar porphyry breccia with 8-15% pyrite-silica veining is seen in both holes beneath the clay altered zone. Intervals of quartz-pyrite cemented breccia from 12 to 15 m long are seen from 156 to 193 m in -020 and from 127 to 152 m in -019. Moderate pyrite mineralization including breccia zones coincides with the DIAS 3D-IP chargeability high suggesting this is likely the source of the chargeability anomaly. FSPO-BXX shows multiple phases of mineralization and structural reworking. Mineralization is present in these zones as disseminated pyrite, breccia infill of quartz-pyrite, interstitial pyrite, dark very fine-grained
pyrite in quartz veins, and clusters of pyrite veinlets that cut breccia textures.
