(TSXV: MGM) (OTCQB: MGMLF) (FSE: M3G) (\"Maple Gold\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to report complete assay results for four (4) drillholes and partial assay results for five (5) additional drillholes from the Company's ongoing 2022 drilling at its 100%-controlled Eagle Mine Property (\"Eagle\") located in Québec, Canada. Previously completed digitization and modelling of historical drill results and a further review of drill logs identified a potential southern splay of the main mine horizon (the \"South Mine Horizon\") located northwest of the past-producing Eagle mine in an area targeted for follow-up drilling. The new results confirm the continuity of the South Mine Horizon at relatively shallow (< 275 metre (\"m\")) vertical depths, suggest local widening of the mineralized zone in this area, and further demonstrate the potential for additional subparallel gold trends at Eagle.Highlights:2022 drilling results, including new results detailed below, demonstrate vertical continuity of the South Mine Horizon over a 350 m vertical interval from surface; known mineralization extends to approximately 800 m vertical depth on adjacent sections and remains open along strike to the northwest as well as at depth (see Figures 1 and 2):Drill hole EM-22-13 intersected 2.3 grams per tonne (\"g/t\") gold (\"Au\") over 10.4 m, including 5.0 g/t Au over 3.2 m (from 257 m downhole). Drill hole EM-22-16 intersected 3.1 g/t Au over 7.3 m, including 4.0 g/t Au over 3.6 m (the latter from 193 m downhole).Drill hole EM-22-10 intersected 14 g/t Au over 0.5 m (from 539.5 m downhole) and 8.3 g/t Au over 1.0 m (from 543 m downhole); this hole also tested the South Mine Horizon more than 200 m further to the southeast.All reported drillholes contained gold mineralization (over 1 g/t Au) and seven (7) of the nine (9) reported drillholes contained multi-gram gold intercepts (2 g/t Au or better).There are still approximately 2,250 m of assays currently pending at Eagle, with a further approximately 1,500 m of remaining drilling to be completed this year.\"These new results at Eagle co...
