(TSXV: GPG) (OTCQB: GPTRF) (FSE: GPB) (\"Grande Portage\" or \"the Company\") is pleased to provide the following interim update to its summer drill program at the Herbert Gold project located in southeast Alaska.To date, the Company has drilled approximately 10,000 feet in 8 holes from 3 platforms. Drilling is well into hole 9 now and the balance of the program will continue until November. The Company has only received results on a small percentage of its sample submissions to date while the balance is still at the lab.Table 1.Hole NameUTM  EastUTM NorthElev.

This intercept is anticipated to extend the established resource by extending that zone to depth by approximately 60 meters. DDH 23AB-5 also intersected a footwall vein of the Main Vein showing 0.52 meters (1.8 ft) of 19.7 gpt Au. After completing drilling activity on Pad AB, the Company moved the rig to Pad M where it drilled 4 holes to test the western Goat Vein and the Goat Hanging Wall targets. All drill holes intersected mineralization in the targeted Goat Vein. Drill hole 23M-1 returned 2.95 meters (9.7 ft) of 17.4 gpt Au which includes 0.92 meters (3.01 ft) of 55.7 gpt Au. This hole was located 45 meters west of the Company's historical DDH 18M-6 (61.83 gpt Au/1.2meters), 80 meters above DDH 18M-7 (3.25 gpt Au/2.0 meters), 40 meters below DDH 17L-2 (NSV), and 50 meters east of ...
