Angus Gold Inc. (TSX-V: GUS |
OTC: ANGVF)
(“
Angus” or the “
Company”) is
pleased to announce assay results from the first five (5)
exploration holes that were completed on the BIF Gold Zone as part
of its summer 2024 drill program at the Golden Sky Project in Wawa,
Ontario. The first five (5) holes were infill holes drilled on the
BIF Gold Zone to improve continuity and understanding of the newly
discovered zone. The holes were planned to test a new structural
hypothesis that could be used to consistently target higher grade
material. The results from the initial holes are better than holes
drilled in previous years with longer intercepts of > 2.0 g/t Au
mineralization. These results continue to indicate strong potential
for the 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 Back River (B2 Gold) in Ontario and Nunavut. The
drill program is ongoing and these results will be used to further
refine the model for subsequent holes.
Breanne Beh, Chief Executive Officer of Angus,
states: “We are very pleased with the initial results from our 2024
BIF drilling program. In addition to demonstrating the continuity
of this thick, extensive gold zone, it is particularly encouraging
that our targeting process is starting to return significant
intervals of higher-grade material than in previous programs. These
results speak to the ongoing improvements in our understanding of
the structural controls at the BIF Gold Zone. As drilling on the
BIF continues, we are also very excited to return to the Dorset
Gold Zone during the month of August, and follow-up on our
high-grade intercept of 7.0 g/t Au over 12.4 metres. In addition,
prospecting and mapping work is underway on two brand new
exploration areas at the Golden Sky project, Abbey Lake and Mishi
West. Initial prospecting results from these areas are encouraging,
which continues to highlight the exceptional exploration potential
of Angus’ entire land package.”
The 2024 drilling program on the BIF was
designed to test new hypotheses regarding the structural controls
on the gold mineralization. The first five (5) drill holes
published in this press release were infill holes completed along
the previously defined 1.0 kilometre of strike length of the BIF
Gold Zone. The holes were successful at continuing to intersect an
approximately 50-metre-thick gold zone, however, results included
longer intercepts of +2.0 g/t Au mineralization than previously
observed. GS-24-142, GS-24-143, GS-24-144, GS-24-145 and GS-24-146
were all drilled to test dilational zones within the magnetic
lineament that hosts the BIF Gold Zone. These initial results are
encouraging and indicate an improved understanding of the system
and reinforce the potential for higher grades. Notable
intersections are listed in the table below.

Golden Sky drilling program are, as follows:

(1) Assay results presented over core length.
Additional drilling will be necessary to constrain the true width
of the mineralized envelope of the gold system.
Exploration work being conducted elsewhere on
the project during the summer 2024 field season includes detailed
mapping and prospecting at the brand-new Abbey Lake and Mishi West
exploration areas. In addition, a detailed soil sampling program is
planned on the Feather River exploration area to aid with the
selection of targets for the winter 2025 drilling program.
The ongoing drill program on the Company’s
100%-owned Golden Sky Project is focused on the Dorset Gold Zone,
which hosts a historic gold resource; the BIF Zone, a new gold zone
discovery in a large banded iron formation; as well as the Eagle
River Splay deformation zone, which shows potential for another
extensive gold system. Angus’ drill programs on the Dorset Gold
Zone have been successful at extending the strike length of the
previously modelled zone from 750 metres to 1.7 kilometres.
The Dorset Gold Zone contains a historic
estimated indicated resource (using a 0.50 g/t Au cut-off) of
40,000 ounces of gold grading 1.4 g/t Au, and an inferred resource
of 180,000 ounces of gold grading 1.2 g/t Au (source: NI 43-101
technical report for the Golden Sky Project entitled, “NI 43-101
Technical Report Wawa Property Ontario, Canada” dated February 18,
2020). The Dorset Zone lies within the Mishi Creek Deformation Zone
(“MCDZ”). The MCDZ can be traced for at least seven (7) kilometres
within the Golden Sky project and has seen very little historic
exploration along most of its strike length.

The Golden Sky Project The
100%-owned Golden Sky Project is located within the Mishibishu Lake
Greenstone Belt of Northern Ontario, which is host to Wesdome’s
high-grade Eagle River and the Mishi open-pit gold mines. The
Company’s 290-square-kilometres land package is located
approximately 50 kilometres west of the town of Wawa and is
situated immediately between the two Wesdome mines. The project is
host to the near-surface Dorset Gold Zone, which contains a
historic estimated resource (using a 0.50 g/t Au cut-off)
consisting of an indicated resource of 40,000 ounces of gold
(780,000 tonnes grading 1.4 g/t Au), and an inferred resource of
180,000 ounces of gold (4,760,000 tonnes grading 1.2 g/t Au).
