[{"type":"text","content":" SALMON, Idaho, March 11, 2021 /CNW/ - Freeman Gold Corp. (CSE: FMAN) (FSE: 3WU) (\"Freeman\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to provide assay results of core from an additional 11 of 34 diamond drill holes on Freeman's 100% owned Lemhi Gold Project located in Idaho. The objective of the 2020 Phase 1 drill program was designed to confirm historical mineralization and allow the use of over 355 historical drill holes in a maiden National Instrument 43-101 compliant resource estimate. The drill program focused on infill and step-out drilling within the known mineralized body to increase confidence and maximize the potential resource. All holes drilled to date have intersected high-grade shallow oxide gold. Selected highlighted results from the additional 11 holes are 2.6 g/t Au over 14.1m (FG20-005C); 1.6 g/t Au over 86m, including 2.2 g/t Au over 20.2m (FG20-007C); 0.9 g/t Au over 174.2m, including 3.9 g/t Au over 18.5m (FG20-008C); and 3.5 g/t Au over 9.5m (FG20-013C). Gold mineralization extends to at least 210 meters and is open at depth. FG20-014C was drilled to test mineralization beneath the intrusion. Mineralization discovered below the intrusive unit encountered 1.2 g/t Au over 21.8m demonstrating that the mineralization not only continues at depth but to the east. This drill hole was the easternmost hole drilled during the 2020 campaign. This new zone remains open on strike. In addition, drill hole FG201-008 ended in mineralization (181.93m to 182.97m contained 2.39 g/t Au), suggesting either additional mineralized stacks at depth and or proximity to a feeder zone. The results are being interpreted by technical staff for future follow up activities.
