TomaGold Intersects 23.78 g/t Au, 16.55 g/t Ag and 1.0% Cu over 3.20 m at a depth of 330 m at Obalski
29 Noviembre 2021 - 6:00AM
TOMAGOLD CORPORATION (TSXV: LOT)
(OTCQB: TOGOF) (“
TomaGold”
or the “
Corporation”) is pleased to report the
results for the last three holes of phase I of its 11,500-metre
drilling program on its wholly-owned Obalski property in
Chibougamau, Quebec. Phase I, which started on July 10, 2021,
consisted of 15 holes totalling 7,253 m. The results of the first
12 holes were reported in a press release dated November 10,
2021.
“While the Obalski property has historically
returned high-grade results from near surface, with this program we
focused on identifying mineralization at depth,” said David
Grondin, President and CEO of TomaGold. “I am pleased to report
that our first phase of drilling at depth has been a real success,
with the discovery of large, low-grade intersections combined with
shorter, high-grade intersections. Based on the results, we have
significantly upgraded our assessment of Obalski's mineral
potential. In phase II of the program, which starts today, we will
continue drilling at depth, on sections 300+00 E, 350+00 E, 400+00
E and finally 450+00 E. To optimize phase II of the program, we
will combine the phase I results with the results of gyroscopic
surveys currently being conducted in historical holes.”
The following table presents the best results
obtained for gold, silver and copper for the last three holes of
phase I:

Holes OBS-21-013 and OBS-21-014 returned low
values and small thicknesses but confirmed the continuity of the
A-Po zone. Hole OBS-21-013 returned 0.76 g/t Au and 2.10 g/t Ag
over 1.40 m at a vertical depth of 450 m, while hole OBS-21-014,
drilled 50 m to the east, returned 0.62 g/t Au and 0.12 g/t Ag over
8.9 m at a vertical depth of 210 m.
Hole OBS-21-015, drilled on the same section as
OBS-21-014 to a vertical depth of 330 m, intersected 23.78 g/t
Au, 16.55 g/t Ag and 1.0% Cu over 3.20 m, including 167.50 g/t Au,
112.00 g/t Ag and 6.08% Cu over 0.45 m. Based on this result, the
Corporation plans to drill an additional hole below OBS-21-015 to a
vertical depth of approximately 400 m.The following table presents

In June 2021, a Pulse-EM geophysical survey
conducted in four holes revealed that all historical holes over
300 m long had a significant eastward deviation. The
Corporation is currently conducting gyroscopic surveys to confirm
the location of the gold-bearing structures at depth. Some 40
historical drill holes have been surveyed since the beginning of
October, and all the holes are expected to be completed in the
coming weeks.
Sample preparation and
analysisTomaGold has implemented and is adhering to a
strict Quality Assurance/Quality Control program for the present
drilling program. The core is sawed in half, with one half kept as
a witness sample in Chibougamau and the other half shipped directly
by bus to ALS Chemex in Val-d’Or, Quebec. ALS grinds the half core
to 1/8", split it into two halves and keeps one half as a witness
(reject) in Val-d’Or. ALS pulverizes the other half to minus 150
mesh, takes a 50 g sample for analysis and keeps the rest,
identified as “pulp”.
