Elevation Gold Announces Recent Exploration Drilling Results that Continue to Demonstrate Moss Mine Expansion Potential

31.10.2022  |  CNW
And Announces New Drilling Program to Begin in November 2022

VANCOUVER, Oct. 31, 2022 - Elevation Gold Mining Corp. (TSXV: ELVT) (OTCQX: EVGDF) (the "Company" or "Elevation Gold") is pleased to provide final results from its recently completed reverse circulation ("RC") resource definition and expansion drilling program (see News Release dated July 25, 2022) at Moss Mine and the commencement of a new RC drill program beginning in November 2022.

Program Highlights
  • Assay results are presented for the final 26 near-mine resource definition and expansion RC drill holes containing several significant intersections of mineralization, including 48.8m grading 0.63 g/t Au, 3.79 g/t Ag at Center Pit (AR22-640R), 53.3m grading 0.49g/t Au, 4.24 g/t Ag (AR22-641R) at Center Pit and 147.8m grading 0.31 g/t Au, 5.61 g/t Ag at West Pit (AR22-636R).
  • A new RC drilling program will commence at Moss Mine in November 2022 to further test mineralization near Center Pit and West Pit

Tim Swendseid, President of Elevation Gold stated: "Today we are announcing final results from our 2022 reverse circulation program at Moss Mine and the commencement of a new reverse circulation program at the mine beginning in November. Our efforts continue to demonstrate the high expansion potential of the Moss Mine. Our recent drilling in the West Pit and Center Pit continued to intersect multiple stockwork vein zones in the hanging and footwalls to the main Moss and Ruth Veins confirming broadening of the system to the west and the presence of significant gold in the Ruth Vein beneath the Center Pit. The new reverse circulation program announced today will follow up on these results and aims to extend mineralization system continuity from the current West Pit, through the Mordor/West Pit Extension area to the historic drilling in the Mid-West Extension/Reynolds Pit area. It is hoped that the drilling will extend the active mining area an additional 0.5km to the west of the current open pit, resulting in an overall potential mine strike length of just over 2km, from the East Pit to the Reynolds Pit area."

Near-mine RC Drilling Results

Assay results for the final 26 near-mine RC drill holes drilled as part of the recently completed 2022 resource delineation and expansion drilling program and located at Center Pit, West Pit, and the 3B leach pad (condemnation drilling) are presented in this news release (see Figure 1: Drillhole Location Map). Significant gold and silver intersections are disclosed at the end of this press release (see Table 1), highlights of the program are discussed below.

Center Pit

Holes were drilled in fans across three section lines to in-fill gaps, and to explore potential economic mineralization beneath the Moss Mine crusher facility. Four holes targeted the Moss vein, while seven holes targeted the Ruth vein. All but one of these holes intersected significant gold mineralization (see Figure 2: Cross-Section Through Center Pit), including.

  • 48.77m grading 0.63 g/t Au, 3.79 g/t Ag, including 16.76m grading 1.18 g/t Au, 7.26 g/t Ag (AR22-640R)
  • 53.34m grading 0.49 g/t Au, 4.24 g/t Ag, including 12.19m grading 0.88 g/t Au, 9.01 g/t Ag (AR22-641R)

West Pit

In-fill drilling in the West Pit continued to intersect thick zones of low-grade ore. Fan patterns were drilled across the West pit to fill in areas lacking sufficient drill definition, and to drill beneath the West Pit mine plan. Most of these holes intersected thick stockwork zones containing gold above the Moss Mine ore control cut-off grade of 0.26 g/t. Hole AR22-636R drilled along Line 2W intersected 147.83m grading 0.31 g/t Au, 5.61 g/t Ag. Several zones of higher-grade material were intersected within this broad zone of stockwork mineralization, including 4.57m grading 1.34 g/t Au, 4.20 g/t Ag, 3.05m grading 1.13 g/t Au, 3.15 g/t Ag and 6.10m grading 0.88 g/t Au, 44.10 g/t Ag (see Figure 3: Cross-Section Through West Pit).

Mordor/West Pit Extension

Condemnation drilling in the proposed 3B leach pad area (north of leach pad 3A) resulted in several intersections containing significant mineralization. The Mordor extension area west of the current West Pit looks especially promising and could help to connect the West Pit with the Mid-West Extension area (see Figure 1: Drillhole Collar Location Map). Note drillhole AR20-253R, drilled in 2020 in the Mid-West Extension area, intersected 45.72m grading 0.32 g/t Au, 1.21 g/t Ag, and 4.57m grading 0.44 g/t Au, 1.53 g/t Ag, and 3.05m grading 1.18 g/t Au, 0.70 g/t Ag, and 4.57m grading 0.54 g/t Au, 0.77 g/t Ag. Hole AR22-618R, drilled approximately 198 meters southwest of the western crest of the West Pit, returned 21.34m grading 1.12 g/t Au, 2.75 g/t Ag, including 9.14m grading 2.03 g/t Au, 4.10 g/t Ag starting from the surface. This hole was drilled near holes AR22-616R and AR22-617R, which were previously released (see press release dated July 25, 2022 and Figure 4: Cross-Section Through Mordor/West pit Extension Area).

Note:

True thickness ranges between 29% to 88% for drillholes targeting the Moss Vein (and parallel stockwork structures) and oriented between -90 degrees to -45 degrees to the north, and between 55% to 96% for drillholes oriented between -80 degrees to -45 degrees to the south targeting the Ruth Vein and parallel stockwork structures. Although true thickness of the stockwork system between the Moss and Ruth Veins is generally difficult to assess due to the variably oriented multiple veins and veinlets that make up this zone, stockwork mineralization intersections reported for angled drillholes in the table above are considered reflective of the broader bulk tonnage mineralization target zone thickness. Stockwork zone intersections in subvertical holes likely range between 60-85% of reported zone thickness. Assay data are uncapped. AuEq = Au + Ag/75. RC drilling was conducted by Boart Longyear. RC samples, collected every 1.52 m, were transported in sealed bags to Skyline Assayers and Laboratories (Skyline) in Tucson, AZ. Field control QAQC samples, including standards, blanks, and field duplicates, were inserted into the sample stream at a rate of three field control samples every 20 regular samples. Gold was determined by fire-assay fusion of 30 g sub-samples with atomic absorption spectroscopy (method FA-01). Overlimit samples of gold were assayed by gravimetric means (FA-02). Skyline Laboratories is accredited in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and ISO 9001:2015.

New RC Drilling Program at Moss Mine

An RC drill rig is scheduled to return to the Moss mine in November 2022 to begin a follow-up drill campaign (estimated at 7,300 m) focused on drilling beneath the crusher from the Center Pit and exploring the Mordor/West Pit extension area. Drilling results to date indicate the presence of significant gold mineralization in and adjacent to the Ruth Vein under and adjacent to the Moss Mine crusher facility. Additionally, the drilling campaign will continue exploring the Mordor/West Pit extension area. The area extending between the West Pit, the Mid-West Extension, and the Mordor area to the south contains limited drilling information, and holes will be drilled to test the continuity of the western extension from the West Pit through the Mordor area to the mid-west extension.

Approval of Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan

Further to the Company's press release dated August 18, 2022, where the Company announced shareholder approval of the 10% rolling omnibus equity incentive plan (the "Equity Incentive Plan") for the issuance of incentive stock options, restricted share units, performance share units, deferred share units, stock appreciation rights and share purchase rights (collectively, the "Awards"), the Company is pleased to announce it has received final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange of the Equity Incentive Plan and the Equity Incentive Plan has been implemented effective October 19, 2022.
