(TSX.V:ETU) (the \"Company\" or \"E2Gold\") is pleased to announce high grade gold assays from its recently completed drill program on the Hawkins Gold Project in north central Ontario. Diamond Drill Hole (\"DDH\") MK21-009 intersected 18.20 g/t Au over 1.0 m within 5.0 m grading 4.91 g/t, further enveloped in a shallow, broad zone of 14.0 m grading 2.02 g/t Au. Nearby MK21-010 continued the high grade trend, returning 6.31 g/t Au over 1.0 m in a 4.0 m zone grading 3.18 g/t Au, within a wider interval of 15.3 m grading 1.11 g/t Au. All lengths in this press release are core lengths, as per standard exploration practice.These results are located some 600 m west of previously announced high grade results within broad mineralized intercepts (See Press Releases March 8, 2021 and April 13, 2021) where DDH MK21-005 intersected 5.78 g/t over 6.0 m including two intercepts of 30.9 g/t and 9.71 g/t, each over 0.5 m. Additionally DDH MK21-003 intersected 25.0 m of 1.24 g/t Au and DDH MK21-001 returned 11.3 g/t Au over 1.0 m within a wider zone of 17 m interval grading 1.81 g/t. E2Gold continues to demonstrate the robustness and consistency of mineralized gold zones on its flagship Hawkins Gold Project.Eric Owens, CEO and President, said, \"We have now intersected high grade gold in two distinct areas 600 m apart, along the trend of the McKinnon Resource. To have such a string of high grade results in these very early days of exploration at Hawkins is extremely encouraging. We are looking forward to the remaining assay results of our first program.\"Mr. Owens added, \"In addition, 2 km east of these shallow high grade holes, we tested a stepout hole some 90 m below historic drill holes, hitting st...
