[{"type":"text","content":" Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - November 17, 2021) - Getchell Gold Corp. (CSE: GTCH) (OTCQB: GGLDF) (\"Getchell\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to provide the results for the North Fork Zone drill hole FCG21-10, part of the ongoing 2021 drill program at the Fondaway Canyon Gold project in Nevada. Key Highlights Hole FCG21-10 intersected the North Fork Gold Zone mineralization over 82.2m that included the following notable drill intercepts: 3.0 g/t Au over 41.6m that included 47.0 g/t Au over 1.5m, the highest-grade gold intercept in the 40+ year drilling history of the Project; 4.6 g/t Au over 9.8m; and 1.0 g/t Au over 14.3m. Hole FCG21-10 intersected North Fork up-dip from FCG20-04 that graded 2.5 g/t Au over 58.0m; Assays are pending for holes FCG21-11 through FCG21-14, that targeted the Colorado SW and Juniper gold zones; and Hole FCG21-15 targeting the down dip extent of the Colorado SW gold zone is in progress. \"The latest results are a prime example of why the gold mineralizing system at the Fondaway Canyon Gold Project is so compelling. The Project is host to an enviable setting comprised of very high-grade gold bearing structures that are themselves hosted within broader and thicker zones of mineralization. The grades and thicknesses that have become apparent at Fondaway Canyon rival many of our peers in a world class gold district,\" states Mike Sieb, President, Getchell Gold Corp. Fondaway Canyon 2021 Drill Program Update Eight drill holes, FCG21-07 through FCG21-14, totalling 3,064 metres have been drilled this year at the Fondaway Canyon Gold Project. All eight holes are located in the Central Area and are following up on the discovery of the Colorado SW, the Juniper, and the North Fork gold zones during the 2020 drill program (Figure 1). Drill holes FCG21-09 and 10 targeted the North Fork Gold Zone, respectively above and below the discovery hole drilled in 2020, FCG20-04, that graded 2.5 g/t Au over 58.0 metres within a broader zone of mineralization (Figure 2). Hole FCG21-10 intersected the North Fork Zone mineralization over an 82.2m drill interval and represents a 35-50 metres up-dip step-out from the FCG20-04 discovery intercept. Table 1 lists the highly notable gold intercepts encountered by hole FCG21-10. Figure 1: Fondaway Canyon Central Area showing aerial view (above) and current 3D model (below) fr...
