[{"type":"text","content":"Cabral Gold Drills More High-Grade at Primary Central Gold Deposit and Further Outlines Extensive Gold-in-Oxide Mineralization at CentralVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 13, 2022) - Cabral Gold Inc. (TSXV: CBR) (OTC Pink: CBGZF) (\"Cabral\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to provide assay results from four diamond-drill holes testing the primary Central gold deposit within the Cuiú Cuiú gold district, northern Brazil.Highlights are as follows:DDH266 tested the main Central mineralized zone and returned a high-grade intercept, as well as multiple lower-grade intervals, including:1.7m @ 14.9 g/t gold from 74.4m. This high-grade intercept occurs in the southern part of the deposit, within fresh (unweathered), brecciated and altered basement intrusive rocks.4.4m @ 1.0 g/t gold from 89.3m, 0.5m @ 5.8 g/t gold from 108.2m, 2.1m @ 1.2 g/t gold from 117.2m, and 11.1m @ 1.5 g/t gold from 122.8m. All of these intercepts also occur within fresh, strongly brecciated and highly altered basement intrusive rocks.12.7m @ 0.5 g/t gold from 15.0m and 7m @ 1.0 g/t gold from 35.7m. Both intercepts occur in highly weathered and oxidized mineralized basement closer to surface. 12m @ 0.7 g/t gold was also encountered from surface in the overlying gold-in-oxide blanket.DDH265, was drilled to test the northeastern limit of the mineralized zone at Central. It returned 18.3m @ 0.7 g/t gold from surface in the overlying gold-in-oxide blanket.DDH248 was designed to test the near-surface extension of the weathered Central basement zone. It intersected 27m @ 0.6 g/t gold from surface, including 7.5m @ 0.3 g/t gold in the overlying gold-in-oxide blanket, and 19.5m @ 0.8 g/t gold within mineralized basement saprolite.The results from all four holes further support previous drilling, defining a significant thick zone of gold-in-oxide mineralization sitting above the primary unweathered gold deposit at Central. It comprises a combination of overlying sub-horizontal, gold-in-oxide blanket, as well as a thick zone of highly weathered saprolite material representing the highly weathered subvertical primary gold mineralization. This oxide (saprolite) mineralization extends from the base of the blanket (near surface) to depths greater than 70m.Alan Carter, Cabral's President and CEO commented, \"The latest drill results from...
