Joshua Gold Acquires 100% interest in the King Solomon's Mine Gold property in Northern Ontario
Woodstock, January 15, 2020 - Joshua Gold Resources Inc. (OTC Pink: JSHG) is pleased to announce that it has acquired a one hundred per cent (100%) interest in the King Solomon's Mine (KSM) property in Northern Ontario in return for eight million (8,000,000) JSHG common shares and a two per cent (2%) Net Smelter Royalty ('NSR') of which the Company has the option to repurchase 50% of the NSR for two million Canadian dollars ($2,000,000) at any time.
The King Solomon's Mine property is in Davis Township, Northern Ontario approximately 45 miles Northeast of Sudbury. The property consists of four claims, approximately one hundred and eighty acres.
The Davis Township Property is primarily underlain by Precambrian rocks consisting of Huronian sediments and intruded by Nipissing gabbro sills and dikes. The Grenville Front lies immediately south of the property striking at 45 degrees. Numerous auriferous altered quartz-carbonate veins occur striking approximately north-west (120-140 degrees), and dipping at 55 degrees south to vertical are structurally related, occurring in the gabbro sills and dikes. Multi altered auriferous veins and breccia veins occur in at least three zones, E, F, and G over widths of 1-8 feet wide associated with minor pyrite, pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite. Historic work from 1976 to 1986 consists of geological, geophysical surveys, surface trenching, sampling and 20 short DDHs.
