A total of 974 additional metres were completed in two new drill holes and by extending one previous drill hole. The objective of this drill program was to follow-up on the results obtained in drill hole D1-22-18 announced on October 19, 2022 of:5.92 g/t gold over 31.0 metresIncluding 14.80 g/t Au over 11.9 metresIncluding 72.95 g/t Au over 2.2 metresMore information about this past release is provided in video format at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89D5OXwOeSs in English and at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2mnO4Roou0 in French.During the course of this program, drill hole D1-22-18 was extended by 93 metres to fully intersect the last two assays of the drill hole, averaging 1.34 g/t Au over 2.0 metres. The two additional drill holes (D1-22-24 and D1-22-25) were aimed at testing the eastern extension of the mineralization intersected in drill hole D1-22-18 with step-outs of 50 metres and 100 metres (see attached map).

All assays are pending. The mineralized zone trends roughly 100° azimuth, dips 50° towards the north, and has now been intersected over a strike length of approximately 850 metres and a vertical depth exceeding 200 metres.The gold mineralization is hosted within a sandstone, near its contact with ultramafic volcanic flows to the south. Kilometre-scale, texture destructive alteration consists of intense ankeritization, sericitization and silicification. There appears to be a spatial associat...
