[{"type":"text","content":"Blackrock Core Drilling Confirms Thick Vein at Victor Target Reporting Multiple Significant Intercepts and Outlines 2021 Exploration Program at Tonopah WestVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 14, 2021) -  Blackrock Gold Corp.(TSXV: BRC) (the \"Company\") is pleased to announce more high-grade gold and silver drill intercepts from its core drilling program on the Victor Target on the 100% controlled Tonopah West project located in the Walker Lane trend of Western Nevada. These results validate the Company's understanding of the structural orientation of the thick structure that was previously encountered during reverse circulation drilling and highlights considerable geologic potential within this target area.HIGHLIGHTS:TW20-061C has confirmed the geologic model by successfully intersecting the Murray vein 60 metres down dip from where drillhole TW20-001 encountered 29 metres grading 965 g/t AgEq (news release July 20, 2020) where it cut 18.5 metres grading 295 g/t AgEq (142 g/t silver and 1.54 g/t gold) which included 1.52 metres of 1,791 g/t AgEq (808 g/t silver and 9.83 g/t gold)(Ag/Au = 100:1);TW20-041C cut 3.11 metres grading 386 g/t AgEq (198 g/t silver and 1.88 g/t gold), including 0.31 metres of 1,121 g/t AgEq (571 g/t silver and 5.5 g/t gold);The Victor Target remains open down dip and 480 metres along strike to the eastern property boundary;The 2021 exploration program will scale up to three diamond core drills and one reverse circulation drill for a planned of 40,000 metres drill campaign. The focus will be a resource definition program consisting of 30,000 metres and will deliver an initial resource on the historic DPB mine target in Q4 2021; andAssays for an additional 12 drillholes are pending from our Tonopah West project.\"With six months of core drilling now under our belt at Victor, it is these new assay results that management are most excited about as they represent what has been the missing link for us thus far, a confirmation that our model of the structural controls of the system is correct having hit the thick mineralised zone again as predicted. With our geologic model now validated, it is evident that significant exploration potential remains within this target. TW20-061C is the first drillhole to cut the thick, down-dip mineralized structure first encountered in TW20-001. Se...
