Dryden Gold Highlights Sherridon Property Historic Results and Details Completed Field Work from the Summer Program

23.10.2024  |  Newsfile

Vancouver, October 23, 2024 - Dryden Gold Corp. (TSXV: DRY) (OTCQB: DRYGF) ("Dryden Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to highlight historic results and details from its summer 2024 field campaign at the Sherridon Project located in the southern region of its land holdings in Dryden Ontario (Figure 1).

Dryden has compiled and begun reinterpreting historical drilling, sampling, and geophysical data to develop additional near and long-term exploration targets. Following this compilation, the company completed a phased mapping program across the entire Sherridon Property and is currently re-logging selected historic drill holes.

Highlights from the Sherridon Property:

  • A total of 96 historic surface samples were collected on the property with multiple intercepts over 30 g/t and with five samples over 100 g/t from quartz veins within variably sheared and silicified pillowed mafic volcanic rocks (Table 1).
    • Highest grade surface sampling returned 617.00 g/t gold.
  • A total of 26 historic drill holes were drilled in 2010 and 2012 focused on an IP anomaly with the first program intersecting visible gold in seven of the ten holes (Table 2).
    • Dryden Gold is in the process of relocating and re-logging these holes with additional sampling occurring on these selectively sampled historic holes.
  • Dryden Gold completed a comprehensive mapping and sampling program over the Sherridon Property in the summer of 2024 with assay results pending.
  • Dryden Gold recently announced the strategic expansion of its land holdings in this area with an additional property purchase (News Release - Oct 21, 2024)

"Our summer fieldwork at the Sherridon Property has provided us with an exciting opportunity to revisit and expand on historic results in this highly prospective region. The historical data, including several high-grade intercepts over 30 g/t gold and assays as high as 617 g/t from surface sampling, underscore the tremendous potential of the property. Combined with our recent acquisition of the Shear Gold Claims, strategically located near our Sherridon project, we are significantly expanding our exploration footprint and are well-positioned to build a robust near-and long-term strategy for unlocking further value," stated Trey Wasser, CEO of Dryden Gold.

Summary of Historic Sampling and Drilling

In 2009, a total of 96 historic samples were collected, with 55 returning assays of 0.25 g/t Au or higher, the threshold for anomalous values. Among these, 40 samples exceeded 1 g/t Au, and 23 of those surpassed 5 g/t Au. The samples were primarily collected from quartz veins within an IP anomaly, hosted in sheared and silicified pillowed mafic volcanic rocks. Mineralization consisted of pyrite and pyrrhotite +/- chalcopyrite with visible gold noted multiple times.

Historic drilling was completed in three phases between 2010 and 2012 and consisted of 26 holes. The first phase of the program was designed to test IP and prospecting anomalies with seven of ten holes intersecting visible gold. The second and third phase were designed based on data from the previous phases, surface samples and IP anomalies. Mineralization in these historic holes was predominately observed in quartz veins within variably sheared and altered pillowed mafic volcanic rocks. The dominant sulfides included pyrite, pyrrhotite, and trace amounts of chalcopyrite, with biotite and chlorite alteration also observed.

Summary of Dryden Gold 2024 Summer Field Work & Re-Logging

Dryden Gold completed a comprehensive mapping program over the entirety of the Sherridon Property during its summer 2024 field program. The mapping focused on enhancing the understanding of the geological controls on the Property with a specific emphasis on the structural and geochemical controls on mineralization and alteration. Select samples were collected as representative lithological units and are currently being run for specialty geochemical analysis. This will provide a more comprehensive understanding the regional and local controls on mineralization to ultimately provide more short and long-term exploration targets for Dryden Gold.

Dryden Gold is in the process of relocating all historic drill holes from the Sherridon Property to its core logging facility, where re-logging and sampling of selected holes is currently underway. Previous operators selectively sampled the historic holes, but with the improved understanding gained from recent field mapping, Dryden is conducting a more thorough re-logging and sampling process to obtain deeper analytical insights from these drill holes.

Qualified Person
The technical disclosure in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Maura J. Kolb, M.Sc., P.Geo., President of Dryden Gold and a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators.

Analytical Laboratory and QA/QC Procedures
All sampling completed by Dryden Gold Corp. within its exploration programs is subject to a Company standard of internal quality control and quality assurance (QA/QC) programs which include the insertion of certified reference materials, blank materials, and a level of duplicate analysis. Drill samples from the 2023 program were sent to Activation Laboratories, with sample preparation and analysis in Thunder Bay, where they were processed for gold analysis by 50-gram fire assay with an atomic absorption finish and over limits determined by Fire Assay with a gravimetric finish. Select samples were analyzed using metallic screens. Activation Laboratories systems conform to requirements of ISO/IEC Standard 17025 guidelines and meets assay requirements outlined for NI 43-101.

Historic samples were analyzed by ALS Chemex, an ISO 9001:2000 accredited company. The historic operator delivered the samples to ALS's sample preparation facility in Thunder Bay. Samples were dried, crushed to #10 mesh (<2 mm), and then a 250 g split was pulverized to 75 microns. 100 g of pulverized material was then sent to ALS's analytical facility in Vancouver, British Columbia. Gold was analyzed by fire assay with an AAS finish, using 30 g samples. ALS has an internal QA/QC procedure of regularly re-analyzing selected samples, as well as inserting internal standards and blanks.
