New Placer Dome Gold Corp. announced plans for the 2021 resource expansion and new discovery program at its Kinsley Mountain Gold Project ("Kinsley Mountain") in Nevada. Building on its successful 2020 campaign, the 2021 Kinsley Mountain exploration program will, subject to the Company raising sufficient funds, comprise resource expansion and new target drilling on three new discoveries, and a significantly expanded program of IP/resistivity geophysical surveys. Kinsley Mountain is located 90 km south of the Long Canyon Mine, operated by Nevada Gold Mines. It hosts Carlin-style gold mineralization under and adjacent to a historical open-pit, run-of-mine heap leach operation, and hosts an Indicated Resource at the Western Flank Zone (WFZ) of 302,000 ounces of gold grading 6.11 g/t Au (1.54 million tonnes). The 2020 Kinsley Mountain reverse circulation (RC) and diamond drill campaign comprised 49 drill holes totaling 17,970 metres and tested five targets within the greater Resource area. To date, only 20% of Kinsley Mountain has been drill tested. Exploration drilling during 2021 is expected to build on new discoveries and expand the current indicated and inferred resource at the Western Flank Zone, Main Pit North Oxide and Secret Spot targets. Highlights of the 2020 Kinsley Drilling include: Western Flank - West side resource expansion drilling yields: 10.22 g/t gold over 6.1 metres within a broader zone grading; 2.63 g/t Au (sulphide) over 38.10 metres in KMR20-017. Western Flank – Central yields second highest-grade Dunderberg shale intercept: 15.1 g/t Au (sulphide) over 7.6 metres, including 24.1 g/t Au (sulphide) over 4.6 metres lower zone; 9.08 g/t Au (sulphide) over 6.1 metres upper zone in KMR20-026. Main Pit North Oxide Target yields high-grade intercepts 75 m outside current pit shell: 9.83 g/t gold over 7.6 metres high grade shallow oxide. Secret Spot Target surface oxide New Discovery multiple intercepts including: 1.77 g/t gold over 25.3 metres in new surface oxide discovery in KMD20-007B; 3.81 g/t gold over 11.6 metres; including 11.3 g/t gold over 2.9 metres in KMD20-006. IP/resistivity geophysical surveys competed during 2020 at the WFZ and Shale Saddle target areas show a correlation between chargeability and drill confirmed high grade gold sulphide mineralization. Expanded infill IP/resistivity geophysical surveys for 2021 will extend south to the Secret Spot target and north to frontier areas of the under-explored Kinsley North. At Kinsley North detailed soil geochemical surveys reveal broad arsenic in soil anomalies coincident with north-trending normal and low angle detachment faults coincident with the prospective Pogonip-Notch Peak contact (the same host horizon as Long Canyon) and Dunderberg shale rocks at depth cut by late northwest trending structures that are important gold mineralization hosts within the Kinsley resource area. Key Points for 2021 Kinsley Mountain Program: Continued resource definition and exploration drilling on 3 priority targets; Western Flank Zone - Resource expansion drilling that is open to the west and east, and testing new near-resource targets generated by recent IP/resistivity survey results; Secret Spot - Mapping and drilling to define the new surface oxide gold discovery; Secret Spot - Deep drilling targeting Transverse fault /Secret Canyon shale intersection following up on high assay results to date at Secret Spot >10 g/t Au returned during 2020 campaign; Main Pit North high-grade oxide discovery continued shallow RC drilling to further delineate near pit mineralization at <150m vertical depths; and Expanded IP/resistivity geophysical surveys to cover the Secret Spot target and under-explored Kinsley North targets, in addition to drill testing of Shale Saddle IP anomaly.
