[{"type":"text","content":" Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 22, 2021) - Flow Metals Corp. (CSE: FWM) (\"Flow Metals\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to update on the Yukon Sixtymile gold project 2021 RAB drill program. The program targeted 3 gold zones: Easter Egg, Miller Creek and Glacier Creek. The Easter Egg zone drilling followed up on four historical diamond drill holes done in 2010-2011. A re-assay using metallic screen for coarse gold mineralization showed DDH-11-18 highlighted a potential discovery hole with an intercept of 12.81 g/t over 2.1m first reported February 1, 2021. Follow up drilling from June 2021 has confirmed 2 horizons of gold mineralization at the Easter Egg target while remaining open in all directions and at depth. \"These are good intercepts near surface and in close proximity to Miller Creek, an active placer mine with a storied history dating back over 100 years,\" said Scott Sheldon, President of Flow Metals. *Easter Egg Zone combined historical and 2021 drilling gold intercept grades above 0.1g/t Au The horizons dip to the west and are related to sets of veins perpendicular to the host rock foliation. The eastern mineralized horizon has a true thickness of roughly 50 to 60m wide whereas the western horizon has never been fully penetrated. The Easter Egg drill collars lie within a gold-in-soil anomaly covering 3000m X 2300m in the center of the property. Further, a pair of large faults trend over 2000m to the northeast through a patch of untested ground towards the richest historic placer from Glacier Creek. *Sixtymile claim block with highlighted soil anomaly and 2021 RAB Collars *Au-Soil anomaly defined by above 30ppb Au *EOH = end of hole *Intercepts were partially re-assayed in 2020 with metallic screen. Intercepts are calculated using updated metallic screen and historical results. Updated Geological Model The 2021 drill program revealed the orientation of mineralized veins and how these veins relate to the host rock foliation. Historic drilling intercepted the mineralized horizons, but insufficient drilling was done to assess the strike and dip of the mineralization. Some of the historic holes were drilled downdip of the mineralization. The combined RAB and historic diamond drilling data now reveal that the gold horizons dip to the west. Understanding the orientation of these mineralized vei...
