Northstar Gold Intersects Additional Near Surface High Grade Gold at Miller Gold Property
Northstar Gold Corp. is reporting additional fire assay and metallic screen results from drill hole MG21-56 at the Company's 100%-owned Miller Gold Property, situated 18 km southeast of the town of Kirkland Lake and Kirkland Lake Gold's Macassa SMC gold mine.
Partial results from drill hole MG21-56 in the Allied Syenite Gold Zone include:
- 6.6 g/t Au over 117m between 14m and 131m encompassing the Veins 1 - 4 zones, including 175 g/t Au over 0.6m (previously released) between 14m and 14.6m, 24.9 g/t Au over 1.5m between 43m and 44.5m, and 1,170 g/t Au over 0.5m between 69.5m and 70m depth (previously released) in drill hole MG21-56 within the Allied Syenite. - See Table 1 for complete assay results.
These results include metallic screen analysis of two samples with previously released fire assays (Northstar News Release dated May 4, 2021) hosting spectacular gold-telluride vein intercepts in the Vein 2 and Vein 3 zones grading 175 g/t Au and 1,170 g/t Au respectively. A total of 143 sample assay results are pending for the lower portion of drill hole MG21-56 and 295 sample assay results are pending for drill hole MG21-55, drilled 80 metres to the south.
During the period March 15th - April 27th, 2021, Northstar drilled 1,990 metres (8 holes) in a Phase IIA program following up the 2020 near-surface bulk-tonnage Allied Syenite Gold Zone discovery (2 holes), near-surface confirmation drilling of the historic gold-telluride No. 1 Vein (2 holes) and 4 holes targeting geophysical and machine learning anomalies. Mineralized intercepts were obtained in all 8 Phase IIA drill holes. It is regrettable the Company is experiencing chronic COVID-19-related delays receiving results from the assay lab. Northstar will continue to report assay results as they become available.
