Gold Corp. reported additional assay results from the Southwest Zone as part of its ongoing expansion and definition drilling program at its 100%-owned Troilus deposit, located in northcentral Quebec, Canada. The latest results have expanded the ore body to the southwest, well beyond the pit shell proposed in the Preliminary Economic Assessment published in August 2020. The Southwest Zone is located ~2.5 kilometres southwest of the former mine and main mineral zones (Z87, Z87 South and J Zone) and has become one of the most important mineral growth targets on the Troilus property since it was initially discovered and drilled in late 2019. Results from six new broad step-out drill holes covering a previously untested area of 200m by 650m confirm significant strike extension up to 300 metres beyond the PEA pit shell. All holes drilled entirely outside of the PEA pit shell. Intercept highlights from new Southwest extension, include: 1.20 g/t AuEq over 19m and 1.51 g/t AuEq over 11m, within a broader intersection of 0.97 g/t AuEq over 26m in drill hole ZSW21-530. This stand-out hole is located 350 metres away from known mineralization. 4.90 g/t AuEq over 4m, incl. 15.56 g/t AuEq over 1m; 1.77g/t AuEq over 4m, incl. 3.06 g/t AuEq over 2m; 12.77 g/t AuEq over 1m in drill hole ZSW21-510 1.03 g/t AuEq over 16m, incl. 1.52 g/t AuEq over 4m and 1.23 g/t AuEq over 6m in drill hole ZSW21-216 1.28 g/t AuEq over 7m and 3.31 g/t over 1m, within broader intercept of 0.93 g/t AuEq over 11m; and 11.22 g/t AuEq over 1m in drill hole ZSW21-529 2.63 g/t AuEq over 2m, within broader intercept of 0.95 g/t AuEq over 7m in drill hole ZSW21-528 Mineral continuity established between 50 to 100 metre sections in new southwest extension supports new structurally focused geological model and suggests a much broader system extending well beyond existing mineral envelope. Drilling is ongoing at a rate of ~7,000 metres per month with 3 drill rigs focused on the Southwest Zone expansion and improving drill density in the recently identified parallel mineral structure in the J Zone. As a result of the ongoing drilling success at Troilus, demonstrating particularly important technical developments and growth in the Southwest and J Zones, the mineral resource estimate is now targeted for completion in H1 2022, in conjunction with the Pre-Feasibility Study. The impact of recent results on the overall future mine could be significant, and the updated timeline will allow for the inclusion of the upcoming few months of drill data as the size and extent of these ore bodies are defined. A minimum of 20,000 additional metres of drilling is planned to be completed on the Southwest Zone to test the extent of the gold zone with the goal of bringing the level of confidence to pre feasibility quality. Southwest Zone: 2019 Discovery to Present Initial drilling in late 2019 8,500 metres of drilling contributes 583,000 oz to the Inferred mineral resource of July 2020 Strike length has more than doubled since late 2020, from 850 metres to 1.85 kilometres Over 40,000 metres drilled in the Southwest Zone since the 2020 mineral resource cut-off Remains open in all directions The Southwest Zone is located 2.5 kilometres southwest of Z87, the former mine’s main production pit, and lies along the margin of the Troilus Diorite and surrounding volcanics. Initial prospecting and mapping started in 2018 to follow-up on some sparse and shallow drilling completed by Inmet Mining Corporation from 1986 to 2000, which returned intercepts as high as 1.23 g/t gold over 36 metres and 1.06 g/t gold over 18 metres. Since drilling began in November 2019, Troilus’ exploration team has successfully delineated a homogeneous body of mineralization that is geologically similar to the main zone Z87, extending over a strike length of 1.85 kilometres and up to 420 metres in width. While the primary lithology and poly-phase alteration and depositional event that likely emplaced the mineralization at Southwest Zone appears to be the same as what has been observed in the Z87 open pit, which produced over one million ounces of gold and copper bearing ore, the intensity of the alteration is stronger. The zone appears darker, intense amphibolite level metamorphism, and carries significantly more magnetite, as well as a trend of increasing amounts of base metals.
