Hole V-24-096 returned 1.08 g/t Au over 386.0 m from surface, including 2.00 g/t Au over 120.5 m, locally outperforming the mineral resource estimate block model
Hole V-24-095 returned 604.5 m from surface at 0.65 g/t Au, including 160.5 m at 1.13 g/t Au, with the bottom 189.5 m of interval outside of mineral resource estimate
Assays remain pending for >15,000 m from 38 holes across four targets at Snowline's Rogue and Einarson projects.
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 4, 2024 / SNOWLINE GOLD CORP (TSXV:SGD)(OTCQB:SNWGF) (the "Company" or "Snowline") is pleased to announce additional analytical results from its 2024 Valley deposit drilling campaign on the Rogue Project in Canada's Yukon Territory alongside updates on regional exploration. Drilling in and around the northwestern part of the Valley deposit (V-24-093, 095 & 097) continues to delineate consistent mineralization within and beyond the limits of the current mineral resource estimate (MRE) for Valley. Towards the northeastern side of the Valley deposit, V-24-096 returned 1.08 g/t Au over 386.0 m from surface, including 2.00 g/t Au over 120.5 m from 139.0 m downhole, outperforming the mineral resource model along its length. The Company awaits analytical results from the majority of its 2024 exploration campaign, including >15,000 m of drilling in 38 holes across four different targets.
Table 1 -Highlight summary of Snowline's latest assay results; see Table 2 for details. *Interval widths reported.
"Our latest results from Valley continue to advance our goals for the 2024 drilling campaign," said Scott Berdahl, CEO & Director of Snowline. "They upgrade our confidence in the initial mineral resource estimate, and they expand the physical limits of the mineralized system at Valley as we know it. It is exceptional to see such consistency across batch after batch of analytical results-and a hallmark of a top-tier gold deposit. We look forward to assessing the overall contributions of these results to an updated mineral resource estimate for Valley in 2025."
VALLEY DRILLING, ROGUE PROJECT
Figure 1 - Plan map of drill results and progress on the Rogue Project's Valley deposit, highlighting current results in drill holes V-24-093 through V-24-097. Past analytical results are faded, while instances of visible gold in holes awaiting assay are marked by yellow spheres. Drill holes with assays pending (27 holes from Valley) are labelled in blue.
Hole V-24-096
Hole V-24-096 is collared within the Valley intrusion, roughly 53 m northeast of V-23-034 (418.9 m @ 1.9 g/t Au including 216.0 m @ 3.1 g/t Au, see July 5, 2023 news release) and 58 m southeast of V-23-045 (517.9 m @ 1.14 g/t Au from surface, see September 11, 2023 news release). The hole is drilled to the southwest, testing a northeastern extension of strong gold mineralization predicted by the Valley deposit block model.
The hole runs through coarse-grained granodiorite for the top 350 m, at which point it transitions to the fine-grained porphyritic unit with localized intrusive breccias. As is seen elsewhere in the deposit, quartz vein densities are high near the transition between the two units, with higher gold grades in the coarse-grained unit proximal to the porphyritic unit. From 674 m to the end of the hole at 740 m the hole returns to coarse-grained granodiorite with generally low quartz vein densities.
The results of this hole complement those of V-24-077 to its northeast (Figure 2), which also exceeded block model expectations based in the initial Valley MRE. These results are expected to help upgrade and de-risk relevant areas of the initial MRE for Valley. The ultimate effect of this result will be quantified along with analytical results of all subsequent holes in an updated MRE at a later time.
Figure 2 - Cross-section B-B', showing V-24-096 in the context of the initial Valley MRE block model and MRE-constraining revenue factor 0.72 pit shell. The block model has not been updated to reflect the current results, nor any results to date from 2024 (bold labels). Blocks shown outside of the current pit shell constraint are not included in the initial MRE for Valley. Areas without blocks have not been modelled and were assumed as nil for the initial Valley MRE. Instances of visible gold in holes still awaiting assay results are marked by yellow spheres. The released holes are projected onto the same plane from a total width of roughly 80 m.
Figure 3 - Cross-section A-A', showing V-24-093, 095 & 097 in the context of the initial Valley MRE block model and MRE-constraining revenue factor 0.72 pit shell. The block model has not been updated to reflect the current results, nor any results to date from 2024. Blocks shown outside of the current pit shell constraint are not included in the initial MRE for Valley. Note the large areas without blocks, which have not been modelled and were assumed as nil for the initial Valley MRE and for calculating pit shell constraints and total waste rock. Instances of visible gold in holes still awaiting assay results are marked by yellow spheres. The released holes are projected onto the same plane from a total width of roughly 140 m, with V-24-097 well in the background-relative positions can be seen in the plan map in Figure 1.
Figure 4 - Relatively coarse native gold as seen in each of the five Valley drill holes reported herein. Gold mineralization at Valley primarily consists of native gold hosted in quartz veins crosscutting the mid Cretaceous Valley intrusion and surrounding sedimentary rocks. Visible gold is common, with tens to hundreds of occurrences per hole consistently observed in well mineralized holes throughout the deposit. Gold often occurs proximal to various minor bismuth and tellurium sulphide minerals and alloys (grey minerals in above figures). As previously disclosed, the nature of this gold mineralization renders it available for high recovery rates from various conventional processing techniques, even in non-oxidized rock, as seen in initial metallurgical tests (94% average bottle roll cyanidation to 96% carbon-in-leach). All images are displayed at the same scale.
Table 2 - Summary of significant mineralization returned from current holes from Valley and other targets. The consistency of strong mineralization in the Valley deposit is reinforced by the capped values in the rightmost column, wherein any assay result >10 g/t Au is replaced by 10.0 g/t Au to calculate the average interval grades. Holes with prefixes "SY" and "J" are from the Sydney and Jupiter targets on the Cynthia and Einarson projects, respectively. *Interval widths reported; true widths of the system are complex, with different vein generations, orientations, and grade distributions present within various intervals through the bulk tonnage gold target at Valley.

QA/QC
On receipt from the drill site NQ2-sized drill core was systematically logged for geological attributes, photographed and sampled at Snowline's "Forks" Camp. Sample lengths as small as 0.5 m were used to isolate features of interest, but most samples within moderate to strong mineralization were 1.0 m in length; otherwise, a default 1.5 m downhole sample length was used. Core was cut in half lengthwise along a pre-determined line, with one half (same half, consistently, dictated by orientation line where present or by dominant vein orientation where absent) collected for analysis and one half stored as a record. Field duplicates were collected at regular intervals as 1⁄4 core samples by splitting the 1⁄2 core sent for sampling, leaving a consistent record of half core material from duplicate and non-duplicate samples alike. Standard reference materials and blanks were inserted by Snowline personnel at regular intervals into the sample stream. Bagged samples were sealed with security tags to ensure integrity during transport. They were delivered by expeditor to Bureau Veritas' preparatory facility in Whitehorse, Yukon. Sample preparation was completed in Whitehorse, with analyses completed in Vancouver.
Bureau Veritas is accredited to ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO9001 for quality management. Samples were crushed by BV to >85% passing below 2 mm and split using a riffle splitter. 250 g splits were pulverized to >85% passing below 75 microns. A four-acid digest with an inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS) finish was used for 59-element analysis on 0.25 g sample pulps (BV code: MA250). All samples were analysed for gold content by fire assay with an atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) finish on 30 g samples (BV code: FA430). Any sample returning >10 g/t Au was reanalysed by fire assay with a gravimetric finish on a 30 g sample (BV code: FA530).
For the purposes of this release, contiguous mineralized intervals at Valley are defined as runs of mineralization with no break >5.0 m assaying <0.1 g/t Au and may include any highlight subsections thereof.
ABOUT ROGUE
Snowline Gold's 100%-owned, flagship Rogue Project, in Canada's Yukon Territory, covers a 60 x 30 km cluster of intrusions in the eastern Tombstone Gold Belt known as the Rogue Plutonic Complex.
Since its launch in 2021, Snowline has progressed the Rogue Project's Valley target from a greenfield prospecting discovery to a significant bulk tonnage gold resource, with 4.05 Moz gold indicated mineral resource at 1.66 g/t Au and an additional 3.26 Moz inferred mineral resource at 1.25 g/t Au within a pit-shell constraint. The resource estimate numbers are supported by the recent technical report for Rogue, prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 standards, entitled "Rogue Gold Project: NI 43-101 Technical Report and Mineral Resource Estimate," authored by Heather Burrell, P. Geo., Daniel J. Redmond, P. Geo., and Steven C. Haggarty, P. Eng., with an effective date of May 15, 2024.
Exploration of the open Valley deposit is ongoing. Valley is a reduced intrusion-related gold system (RIRGS), geologically similar to multi-million-ounce RIRGS deposits currently in production, like Kinross's Fort Knox Mine in Alaska, but with substantially higher gold grades. Gold is associated with bismuthinite and telluride minerals hosted in sheeted quartz vein arrays within and along the margins of a one-kilometer-scale, mid-Cretaceous aged Mayo-series intrusion.
The Rogue Project area hosts multiple intrusions similar to Valley along with widespread gold anomalism in stream sediment, soil and rock samples. Elsewhere, RIRGS deposits are known to occur in clusters. For these reasons, Snowline considers the Rogue Project to have district-scale potential to host additional reduced intrusion-related gold systems.

Hole V-24-096
Hole V-24-096 is collared within the Valley intrusion, roughly 53 m northeast of V-23-034 (418.9 m @ 1.9 g/t Au including 216.0 m @ 3.1 g/t Au, see July 5, 2023 news release) and 58 m southeast of V-23-045 (517.9 m @ 1.14 g/t Au from surface, see September 11, 2023 news release). The hole is drilled to the southwest, testing a northeastern extension of strong gold mineralization predicted by the Valley deposit block model.
V-24-096號孔
V-24-096號孔位於瓦萊巖體之內,大約位於V-23-034(41890萬 @ 1.9 g/t Au,其中包括21600萬 @ 3.1 g/t Au,參見2023年7月5日的新聞發佈)的東北方向約5300萬,位於V-23-045(51790萬 @ 1.14 g/t Au,來自地表,參見2023年9月11日的新聞發佈)的東南方向約5800萬。該孔向西南方向鑽探,檢測瓦萊礦牀模塊預測的強金礦化的東北向延伸。
The hole runs through coarse-grained granodiorite for the top 350 m, at which point it transitions to the fine-grained porphyritic unit with localized intrusive breccias. As is seen elsewhere in the deposit, quartz vein densities are high near the transition between the two units, with higher gold grades in the coarse-grained unit proximal to the porphyritic unit. From 674 m to the end of the hole at 740 m the hole returns to coarse-grained granodiorite with generally low quartz vein densities.
該孔穿過粗粒花崗閃長質至頂部的35000萬,此時轉變爲細粒斑岩單位,局部有侵入性角礫石。與礦牀其他地方一樣,兩個單位之間的過渡處石英脈密度較高,在靠近斑岩單位的粗粒單元中金含量較高。從67400萬至最終深度74000萬處,孔返回到粗粒花崗閃長質,石英脈密度普遍較低。
The results of this hole complement those of V-24-077 to its northeast (Figure 2), which also exceeded block model expectations based in the initial Valley MRE. These results are expected to help upgrade and de-risk relevant areas of the initial MRE for Valley. The ultimate effect of this result will be quantified along with analytical results of all subsequent holes in an updated MRE at a later time.
這一孔的結果與東北方的V-24-077孔(圖2)互補,V-24-077孔的結果也超過了基於初始瓦萊MRE的模塊期待。預計這些結果將有助於升級和降低瓦萊初始MRE相關區域的風險。這一結果的最終影響將連同所有後續孔的分析結果一起,在以後的時間更新的MRE中得到量化。

On receipt from the drill site NQ2-sized drill core was systematically logged for geological attributes, photographed and sampled at Snowline's "Forks" Camp. Sample lengths as small as 0.5 m were used to isolate features of interest, but most samples within moderate to strong mineralization were 1.0 m in length; otherwise, a default 1.5 m downhole sample length was used. Core was cut in half lengthwise along a pre-determined line, with one half (same half, consistently, dictated by orientation line where present or by dominant vein orientation where absent) collected for analysis and one half stored as a record. Field duplicates were collected at regular intervals as 1⁄4 core samples by splitting the 1⁄2 core sent for sampling, leaving a consistent record of half core material from duplicate and non-duplicate samples alike. Standard reference materials and blanks were inserted by Snowline personnel at regular intervals into the sample stream. Bagged samples were sealed with security tags to ensure integrity during transport. They were delivered by expeditor to Bureau Veritas' preparatory facility in Whitehorse, Yukon.

ABOUT ROGUE
Snowline Gold's 100%-owned, flagship Rogue Project, in Canada's Yukon Territory, covers a 60 x 30 km cluster of intrusions in the eastern Tombstone Gold Belt known as the Rogue Plutonic Complex.
關於ROGUE
Snowline Gold公司擁有100%的標誌性Rogue項目,位於加拿大育空地區,涵蓋了東方山谷黃金帶中的一個60 x 30公里的浸入體聚集群,被稱爲Rogue深源複合體。
Since its launch in 2021, Snowline has progressed the Rogue Project's Valley target from a greenfield prospecting discovery to a significant bulk tonnage gold resource, with 4.05 Moz gold indicated mineral resource at 1.66 g/t Au and an additional 3.26 Moz inferred mineral resource at 1.25 g/t Au within a pit-shell constraint. The resource estimate numbers are supported by the recent technical report for Rogue, prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 standards, entitled "Rogue Gold Project: NI 43-101 Technical Report and Mineral Resource Estimate," authored by Heather Burrell, P. Geo., Daniel J. Redmond, P. Geo., and Steven C. Haggarty, P. Eng., with an effective date of May 15, 2024.
自2021年推出以來,Snowline已將Rogue項目的山谷目標從後勤勘探發現推進到實質性的大塊金資源,其明示金礦資源爲4.05 Moz,爲1.66 g/t Au。在一個由坑殼約束的範圍內,還有另外3.26 Moz的推斷金礦資源,爲1.25 g/t Au。資源估計數字得到了最近關於Rogue的技術報告的支持,該報告是依據NI 43-101標準編寫的,標題爲「Rogue Gold Project:NI 43-101技術報告和礦產資源估算」,作者爲Heather Burrell,P. Geo.,Daniel J. Redmond,P. Geo.和Steven C. Haggarty。P. Eng.,有效日期爲2024年5月15日。
Exploration of the open Valley deposit is ongoing. Valley is a reduced intrusion-related gold system (RIRGS), geologically similar to multi-million-ounce RIRGS deposits currently in production, like Kinross's Fort Knox Mine in Alaska, but with substantially higher gold grades. Gold is associated with bismuthinite and telluride minerals hosted in sheeted quartz vein arrays within and along the margins of a one-kilometer-scale, mid-Cretaceous aged Mayo-series intrusion.
對Open Valley存款的勘探工作正在進行中。Valley是一個減少侵入型金系統(RIRGS),在地質上類似於目前生產中的數百萬盎司RIRGS存款,如Kinross的阿拉斯加Fort Knox礦山,但金品位顯著更高。金與鉍輝和碲礦物相關聯,這些礦物存在於Mid-Cretaceous年代的Mayo系侵入體的一公里規模片狀石英脈陣列內部和沿邊緣。
The Rogue Project area hosts multiple intrusions similar to Valley along with widespread gold anomalism in stream sediment, soil and rock samples. Elsewhere, RIRGS deposits are known to occur in clusters. For these reasons, Snowline considers the Rogue Project to have district-scale potential to host additional reduced intrusion-related gold systems.
Rogue項目區域除了Valley以外,還擁有許多類似的侵入體和廣泛的流沙、土壤和岩石樣品黃金異常。此外,RIRGS礦牀以簇群形式出現。出於這些原因,Snowline認爲Rogue項目具有區域規模的潛力,可以承載其他的還原侵入型金礦系統。
