[{"type":"text","content":"Banyan Gold Reports Aurex Hill Zone Diamond Drill Results, Aurmac Property, YukonVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 7, 2021 / Banyan Gold Corp. (the \"Company\" or \"Banyan\") (TSXV:BYN) is pleased to present the complete set of results from the diamond drill exploration campaign on the Aurex Hill zone at the Company's rapidly developing AurMac Property, Yukon (Table 2 and Figure 1 and 2). These results demonstrate this zone has the potential to host widespread, consistent and near-surface gold mineralization over meaningful extents.Assay highlights from the 2021 Aurex Hill target include:13.7 metres (\"m\") of 0.59 g/t Au from surface in DDH AX-21-11617.8 m of 0.81 g/t Au from 121.9 m in DDH AX-21-11671.6 m of 0.36 g/t Au from 196.6 m in DDH AX-21-11743.9 m of 0.52 g/t Au from 118.0 m in DDH AX-21-11813.8 m of 0.66 g/t Au from 9.1 m in DDH AX-21-11989.2 m of 0.35 g/t Au from 164.6 m in DDH AX-21-12034.4 m of 0.53 g/t Au from 37.2 m in DDH AX-21-12146.0 m of 0.41 g/t Au from 62.8 m in DDH AX-21-12324.2 m of 0.57 g/t Au from 195.1 m in DDH AX-21-12541.2 m of 0.54 g/t Au from 187.4 m in DDH AX-21-127\"Results from the seventeen (17) holes of the 2021 Aurex Hill campaign, combined with historic intercepts, significantly increases the mineralization footprint of Aurex Hill. The zone represents a large untested target area with the potential to define additional near-surface, potentially heap leach developable, gold resources.\" states Tara Christie, President and CEO. \"The existing infrastructure, recently augmented by Banyan, has positioned AurMac to be advanced quickly; supporting the four drills currently operating.\"Results from these 17 holes are consistent with previous exploration drilling campaigns at Aurex Hill, all of which have yielded significant intersections of gold mineralization including 1.11 g/t over 17.9 m from surface in AX-20-57, 0.91 g/t over 20.5 m from surface in AX 20-54 (see Company News Release, February 8, 2021), 0.38 g/t Au over 100.0 m in AX-03-16, 0.54 g/t Au over 30.3 m in AX-03-24 and 0.30 g/t Au over 24.10 m in AX-17-26 (See Company News Release of October 4, 2017) and also visible gold (Image 1). The areal extent of this consistent gold mineralization and the coincident large-scale gold-in soils anomaly (>10 square kilometers (\"sq km\")) demonstrates the potential for Aurex Hill to add meas...
