[{"type":"text","content":" WHITE ROCK, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 24, 2022 / TDG Gold Corp. (TSXV:TDG) (the \"Company\" or \"TDG\") is pleased to announce the results of diamond drillhole SH21-006 from its 2021 drill program at TDG's former producing high-grade gold-silver Shasta Mine located in the historical Toodoggone Production Corridor of north-central B.C. Highlights include 95.5 metres (\"m\") of 0.98 grams per tonne (\"g/t\") gold (\"Au\") and 29 g/t silver (\"Ag\") [1.35 g/t AuEq*] from 27.5-123.0 m depth (see Table 1). As with TDG's recently published drillholes from the 2021 Shasta drill program (see TDG news releases January 04, 2022 and January 11, 2022), drillhole SH21-006 demonstrates continuity of grade and mineralization along with confirmation of grades of the surrounding historical holes and validation of the expected dimensions of mineralized zone in that section of Shasta (Figure 1). An oblique cross-section is presented in this news release that spans the Creek, JM and Upper Creek Zones (Figure 3). Drillhole SH21-006 represents the most northerly hole drilled at the Shasta Creek Zone target in the 2021 drill program and spanned the northern portion of the Creek Zone across to the northern portion of JM Zone. The drillhole trace started approximately 150 m north of the Creek Pit and ending approximately 300 m north of the JM Pit (Figure 1). The purpose of SH21-006 was to step out to the north of 2021 drilling and infill between historical drillholes, including SH89-40, SH89-41, SH89-55 and SH89-56 (et al.), highlights from which include 37.0 m of 1.84 g/t Au and 106 g/t Ag [3.16 g/t AuEq*] in SH89-40; and 12.3 m of 1.60 g/t Au and 120 g/t Ag [3.10 g/t AuEq*] in SH89-55 (see Table 2 for historical drillhole highlights).

Drillhole SH21-006 intersected variably silicified, potassic-altered volcaniclastic rocks below the Shasta Fault (at 17.4 m) that carried a mineralized assemblage of dominantly pyrite and acanthite associated with quartz-carbonate veins, compos...
