[{"type":"text","content":"Antler Gold Announces the Identification of High Priority Exploration Targets on Its Western Erongo Gold Project, Karibib Region, NamibiaHalifax, Nova Scotia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 3, 2020) - Antler Gold Inc. (TSXV: ANTL) (\"Antler\" or the \"Company\"), is pleased to announce the delineation of six priority targets for exploration on its Western Erongo Gold Project (\"Western Project\") in the southern central zone of the Damara orogenic belt.The Western Project has historically drilled prospects which have been inadequately explored to date and will be the immediate focus of Antler's future exploration. This historic exploration has been focused primarily on locating near surface gold mineralisation and largely ignored the potentially better mineralised depth extent of these prospects.Dan Whittaker, President and CEO of Antler, commented, \"We're pleased to have outlined six priority targets on our Western Project. There has been limited historical drilling undertaken and only to a depth of 30 and 35 meters. We plan on testing these historical areas at depth. We are also awaiting results from our verification sampling and geophysical program to more precisely define these targets which we expect to drill in late summer/early fall 2020.\"The figure below indicates the location of each of the prospects in relation to historical soil anomalies defined to date and a description of each follows.Figure 1To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/5124/57182_dd215b2a54878a69_002full.jpgGold Prospects Delineated to Date W1 - Sandamap - 3.5 kilometer long zone of sheared and altered Kuiseb Formation schists defined along an open-ended strike length of the Sandamap auriferous zone on the edge of a D3/D4 late‐Damaran leucogranite dome. Historical diamond drill holes were completed in 1993 to assess the potential volume of oxidised material amenable to heap leach extraction. Drilling tested three anomalies at vertical depths up to 30 meters below surface. A total of 98 drill core samples were assayed, with the highest gold grade of 11.2 g/t.
