[{"type":"text","content":" Vancouver, British Columbia Getchell Gold Corp. (CSE: GTCH) (OTCQB: GGLDF) (\"Getchell\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to provide the results for drill hole FCG22-18 that targeted the high-grade North Fork zone at the Fondaway Canyon gold project in Nevada. Key Highlights Extensive gold mineralized intervals encountered; Continues to expand North Fork zone with further discoveries; Includes 2.5 g/t Au over 43.4 m, 2.0 g/t Au over 29.6 m, 4.8 g/t Au over 12.1 m, 1.4 g/t Au over 27.7 m, and 2.0 g/t Au over 22.1 m; Lower gold interval is outside of previous drilling and is 75 m away from nearest drill hole; Results from FCG22-18 will be incorporated into the forthcoming Resources estimate; North Fork gold zone remains open in most directions; Drilling is underway to step out and delineate the rapidly expanding North Fork zone; and With the completion of the drill program at the Star project, a second drill rig has arrived at Fondaway Canyon and commenced drilling of the Pediment target zone. \"FCG22-18 marks the easternmost drill hole targeting the North Fork gold zone and encountered one of the broader, cumulative intervals of gold, drilled to date at Fondaway Canyon.\" states Mike Sieb, President, Getchell Gold Corp. \"As we step out, we continue to intersect significant gold mineralization reflective of the impressive size and potential of the mineralizing system.\" Drill Hole FCG21-18 Drill hole FCG22-18, the second drill hole of the 2022 drill program at Fondaway Canyon (the \"Project\"), was designed to follow up on the high-grade gold discovered by FCG21-16, the last drill hole of the 2021 drill program. FCG21-16 encountered a high-grade gold interval grading 6.3 g/t Au over 50.7 m (117.5-168.2 m drill depth) that includes 10.4 g/t Au over 25.0 m (139.9-164.9 m) (Company news release dated February 15, 2022). This latter interval contained 12 samples reporting >10 g/t Au revealing strong internal high-grade gold consistency. FCG22-18 was collared on the canyon floor, at the junction of Fondaway Canyon and the North Fork branch, on the same drill pad as hole FCG21-16 (Figures 1 and 2). FCG22-18 targeted the North Fork mineralized zone as a 30m step out to the northeast from the high-grade intercept encountered in FCG21-16. FCG22-18 intersected multiple significant intervals of gold mineralization, encountered from 1...
