Highlights:

  • Drilling inside the Banded Atomic number 26 Formation (“BIF”) exploration area has successfully
    extended the gold mineralisation over 800 metres along strike, up to 104 metres wide and down to depths of 220 metres,
    suggesting an all-encompassing golden system
  • Results confirm a robust gilded arrangement
    with thick intervals of upwardly to:

    • 104.3 metres of almost-continuous mineralization grading 0.8 g/t Au, including 7.9 metres of 2.3 g/t Au in Hole GS22-26;
    • 49.0 metres of 1.0 grand/t Au, including 1.0 metre of vii.ii g/t Au in Hole GS22-49; and
    • 45.v metres of 1.0 grand/t Au, including 11.0 metres of 2.0 g/t Au in Hole GS22-55
  • BIF horizon extends for over vii kilometres of strike-length within the Golden Sky property, with most of the horizon yet unexplored
  • A $200,000 grant was received from the Ontario Junior Exploration Program to fund the drilling program at the Golden Sky project
  • Drill plan planned for 2023 to further delineate the new gold discoveries and exam new targets inside the BIF exploration area

TORONTO, Feb. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —
Angus Gilt Inc.

) (“Angus” or the “Company”) is pleased to denote analysis results from the twelve (12) holes drilled during the Summer and Fall 2022 drill program at the Gold Heaven Project in Wawa, Ontario. The twelve holes were drilled within the BIF exploration surface area to further delineate the new gold horizon, originally intersected during the 2021 drilling entrada, likewise every bit exam two targets in other areas of the BIF. All of the holes were successful in intersecting golden mineralization and have now identified a gold horizon of approximately 800 metres strike-length and up to 104 metres broad. In addition, gilded mineralization was successfully intersected in the two holes testing other stratigraphic sections of the BIF, suggesting at that place is considerable exploration upside outside of the new gold zone. These results continue to indicate strong potential for the surface area to host significant BIF-hosted gold mineralization similar to that seen at the large, high-grade deposits of Musselwhite (Newmont), Meadowbank (Agnico-Eagle) and Dorsum River (Sabina) in Ontario and Nunavut.

Steve Burleton, Main Executive Officeholder of Angus, states: “We are extremely encouraged past the results from our latest drill program. With but twelve drill holes we accept already defined a thick, robust aureate arrangement along a strike length of over 800 metres. It is very exciting for a project to exist showing this much hope at such an early phase. Within these intervals we are also seeing indications of higher-grade mineralization and we believe that this organization has the potential to host a earth-form aureate eolith similar the Musselwhite Mine in Ontario. Our central objectives for the BIF exploration in 2023 are to keep delineating the new gold discovery, vectoring towards high-form aureate mineralization, and identifying new gold zones throughout the 7-kilometre-wide target area. With a system this large, we have no doubt that there are more discoveries to be made and much more value to exist added.”

The 2022 drilling program on the BIF was designed to examination the lateral extent and continuity of the gilt horizon kickoff intersected during the 2021 drilling plan. Ten holes (10) were drilled along the geophysical trend hosting the 2021 holes (GS21-xiv and GS21-15) and verified the lateral continuity of the mineralization. Drilling also confirmed that the golden system continues at depth. In addition, two holes were drilled on a parallel geophysical trend and successful in identifying new gold zones.

All holes drilled along strike from GS21-14 and GS21-15 intersected aureate mineralization and have been successful in defining continuity betwixt the 2 original holes while also extending the gold zone to the due east and west. This gilt horizon has at present been divers for approximately 800 metres of strike length. Notable intersections are listed in the table below. Of particular involvement are the results from pigsty GS22-26, 0.viii m/t Au over 104.iii metres, including 1.0 g/t Au over 29.0 metres, 2.3 thousand/t Au over 7.ix metres and 5.three g/t Au over ane.0 metres, that has been drilled 65 metres beneath GS21-14. The gilt intercept has increased from 60 metres (GS21-14) to 100 metres in thickness indicating the potential for the zone to amend at depth.

Analysis results presented over core length. Additional drilling will be necessary to constrain the true width of the mineralized envelope of the gold system.

The mineralization in the gilded zone is associated with disseminated and stringer pyrrhotite and pyrite within a sheared and folded oxide facies iron germination. The gold zones are thick and are consistently mineralized throughout the intervals. Each hole typically has a loftier-grade intercept, which is associated with the contact between oxide facies fe formation and chert facies iron germination. Angus is currently investigating the potential stratigraphic and structural controls to better target high-form mineralization during the 2023 drilling campaign. These controls can likewise be used to identify exploration drilling targets on the parallel geophysical trends inside the BIF exploration surface area.

Drill holes GS22-27 and GS22-28 were drilled on a geophysical trend parallel to the gold zone. Results from these two holes intersected shallow, gold intercepts that warrant follow-up work and indicate the potential for parallel golden zones to be present inside the BIF exploration area. Expansion of ground geophysical coverage of the BIF exploration area in 2022 has generated a significant number of new exploration targets along 7 kilometres of strike length.
