[{"type":"text","content":"Emgold Commences Soil Sampling Program at its Golden Arrow Property, NVVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 19, 2021 / Emgold Mining Corporation (TSXV:EMR)(OTC PINK:EGMCF)(FRA:EMLM) (\"Emgold\" or the \"Company\") announces that it has contracted with Rangefront Geological to perform a soil sampling program at its Golden Arrow Property, NV (the \"Property\"). Plans are to collect approximately 1,109 soil samples from two areas located in the southern part of the Property. The goal of the program is to identify additional exploration targets on the Property. Sampling will follow structural trends associated with Walker Lane faulting near the western margin of the Kawich volcanic caldera.The first area to be sampled will explore an area south of the known resource zones of Hidden Hill and Gold Coin, including part of the Page Fault. The survey grid will consist of 657 soil samples taken on a 50 by 100 meter spacing. The program will also sample a second area located on a portion of the 137 mining claims recently staked by Emgold (see January 12, 2021 press release). This sampling layout will explore an area located between two sets of historic mine shafts and workings. The survey grid will consist of 452 samples taken on a 50 by 50 meter spacing.Work began on January 13th, with results expected in first quarter 2021. Completion of the work is dependent on weather conditions. Results will be reviewed in conjunction with geophysics work being completed on the Property.About the Golden Arrow Property The Property is located approximately 40 miles east of Tonopah in Nye County, Nevada. It is an advanced-stage exploration property with a comprehensive exploration database including geochemical sampling, geophysics, and over 201,000 feet of reverse circulation and diamond core drilling.To date, two main resource areas have been drilled on the Property focusing on bulk disseminated mineralization - the Gold Coin and Hidden Hill deposits.
