[{"type":"text","content":"TDG Gold Corp. Reports Broad, Near Surface Porphyry-Style Copper-Gold at BakerWHITE ROCK, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 15, 2023 / TDG Gold Corp. (TSXV:TDG) (the \"Company\" or \"TDG\") is pleased to announce assay results from two more historical drill holes, both of which appear to support the concept that the Baker1 area of its Toodoggone properties may represent a bulk-tonnage, porphyry-style copper-gold target1 that was later overprinted by a high-grade epithermal gold-silver system. Historical drill holes BK86-10 and BK87-04 were drilled in 1986 and 1987 respectively, targeting high-grade gold-silver (\"Au-Ag\") mineralization associated with the Baker B-Vein (Figure 1). As a result, both holes were only selectively sampled at the time, based on that target model.TDG's relogging and resampling of the full length of these holes has not only confirmed the historical high-grade Au-Ag epithermal-style mineralization, extending this style of mineralization to depth, but has also identified porphyry-style copper-gold (\"Cu-Au\") veining, alteration and sulphide mineralization comprised of pyrite, chalcopyrite, molybdenite and minor bornite over more than 100 metres of core length starting from near surface and ending in mineralization in both historical drillholes1.The broad length weighted average grade intercept for diamond drillhole BK86-10 comprises 0.1 % Cu, 1.07 grams per tonne (\"g/t\") Au and 4 g/t Ag over 100.26 m from 40.2 m down hole, including 0.2 % Cu and 2.7 g/t Au over 37.4 m from 84.5 m down hole (Table 1).Diamond drillhole BK87-04 tested the B-Vein from the northwest to southeast, opposite the dominant drill trend and intercepted the epithermal, Au-Ag overprint at 135.0 m down hole. It also encountered a previously unrecorded 132.4 m interval of Cu-Au porphyry-style mineralization from 14.6 m depth, ending in mineralization at 147.0 m down hole.Steven Kramar, TDG's VP Exploration, commented: \"These latest assay results from hole BK86-10 indicate that Baker hosts broad, shallow, copper-gold mineralization that was not historically mined. We interpret the broad mineralized intercept in BK87-04 as showing the presence of previously unrecognized shallow copper-gold halo that extends the footprint of this exploration target and helps with our vectoring.\" Figure 1.
