GT Gold Corp (TSX-V:GTT)
(the
“Company” or “GT Gold”) is pleased to announce that
it has mobilized a third drill to its Tatogga project and that it
will be operational by mid-August.
“The 2019 season is off to an excellent
start,” said Charles Greig, Vice President of Exploration. “The
third drill gives us flexibility to test additional targets on the
large Tatogga property while maintaining our focus on what’s most
important, Saddle North.”
GT Gold’s Phase 1 exploration program is now
complete. Soil and stream sediment sampling is largely
complete, and we anticipate receipt of these results over the next
several weeks. The Company released the first set of drill results
on July 17, 2019 (see news) and is expecting to release the next
set of results in early September.
Tatogga Property
GT Gold’s Tatogga Project lies in the northern
part of northwest B.C.’s prolific Golden Triangle. The property
features district scale exploration potential, with two recent
discoveries, Saddle North and Saddle
South, along with a third target,
Quash-Pass, which is close to being drill-ready.
All lie close to Highway 37 and to grid power that leads to the Red
Chris copper-gold mine, which lies approximately 20 km to the
southeast. GT Gold is well funded, with a current cash
position of approximately C$17.8 million.
Saddle North
Initial drilling at Saddle North followed
indications from early rock and soil geochemical sampling, geology,
and geophysical work which outlined a kilometre-scale geochemical,
magnetic and Induced Polarization (IP) chargeability anomaly
coincident with local exposure of quartz-sericite-pyrite altered
rocks. Reconnaissance holes TTD062 and 064, completed late in the
2017 drilling season, indicated the presence of a copper-gold
porphyry system that bore some similarities to the nearby Red Chris
copper-gold mine.
GT Gold’s 2018 program demonstrated the
potential for a significant copper-gold porphyry system at Saddle
North, with grades exceeding 1.0% CuEq1 and 1.5 g/t AuEq1 in a
higher-grade core zone (see news January 9, 2019). It also showed
that this core zone reached from near surface (hole TTD108) to
greater than 1,300 metres down-dip, where it remains open. True
thickness of the core zone is approximately 100 metres in hole
TTD108, at a depth of 200m. Copper equivalent grade appears
to increase with depth, and in mineralized thickness increases to
greater than 300 metres in holes TTD093 and TTD109. The 2018
results also demonstrated that the high-grade core zone extends
along strike at least 500 metres (to hole TTD102) and that it lies
within a much broader, strongly mineralized envelope with a drilled
strike length in excess of 650 metres, a true width of
approximately 700 metres, and a down-dip extent of more than 1,300
metres. This large, high-grade copper-gold mineralized zone
generally appears to trend northwest-southeast and to dip steeply
to the west-southwest, while the central higher-grade core zone may
plunge similarly west-southwest or perhaps more southerly.
The results from the first six holes of GT’s
2019 program confirmed that the high grades identified in 2018
Saddle North hole TTD108 continue up-dip to surface, and showed,
through hole TTD112, that a direct link of excellent and increasing
grades exists between the near-surface mineralization through
moderate depths to the deeper and generally highest grade
mineralization at Saddle North. Saddle North mineralization remains
open in most directions, and a number of excellent targets remain
to be tested, both peripheral to the Saddle North mineralized zone,
and farther afield.
1 January 4, 2019 intra-day spot prices used to
calculate CuEq and AuEq are: Cu: $2.57/lb, Au: $1,294.80/oz, Ag:
$15.65/oz. All values are reported in USD and do not consider metal

About GT Gold
GT Gold Corp. is focused on exploring for base
and precious metals in the geologically fertile terrain of British
Columbia’s renowned Golden Triangle. The Company’s flagship asset
is the wholly-owned, 46,827 hectare Tatogga property, located near
Iskut, BC, upon which it achieved two significant discoveries in
2017 and 2018 at its Saddle prospect: a near surface bulk-tonnage
and potential deep high-grade underground-style epithermal
gold-silver vein system at Saddle South and, close by at Saddle
North, a large-scale, richly mineralized porphyry
gold-copper-silver mineralized intrusion.
