[{"type":"text","content":"TDG Gold Reports Gold-Silver Results From Historical Tailings At Baker, Toodoggone, BCWHITE ROCK, BC / ACCESSWIRE / November 12, 2024 / TDG Gold Corp (TSXV:TDG) (the \"Company\" or \"TDG\") today reported assay results from the Phase 1 drilling of the main Tailings Storage Facility (\"TSF1\") located adjacent to the Baker Mill. TSF1 is reported to contain ~265,000 metric tonnes (\"MT\") of wet tailings from historical production at the former high-grade gold-silver (\"Au-Ag\") Baker and Shasta mines between 1981-20121. TDG completed 15 boreholes in TSF1 seeking environmental, geotechnical and geological data.Highlights Include:Aggregate length-weighted average grade of all tailings material sampled (Table 1) of 1.00 grams per tonne (\"g/t\") Au, 46 g/t Ag [1.57 g/t gold equivalent (\"AuEq\"2)]Two distinct strata identified within TSF1 (Figure 1) with higher grade material at the base (e.g., TSF24-010 reporting 3.5 m of 1.92 g/t Au and 82 g/t Ag [2.95 g/t AuEq2] (Table 1) overlain by more typical, moderate grade materialAu-Ag grades and calculated TSF1 volumes are in line with historical reported production records and recoveries1 Figure 1. Baker Schematic TSF Section with: (i) Foundation/Berm in light blue, (ii) Interpreted ‘High-Grade Tailings Material' in red, (iii) Interpreted ‘Tailings Material' in yellowA second, smaller TSF (\"TSF2\") reportedly received ~50,000 MT of wet tailings material from the final years of the Shasta production1 may be analysed in subsequent work phases. Both TSFs at Baker are located within the Baker-Shasta Permitted Mine Area proximal (~ 600 m) to the Baker mill and other existing infrastructure, including the major mining road that connects the district (Figure 2).Steven Kramar, TDG's VP Exploration, commented: \"The Phase 1 assay results from TSF1 merit follow up to evaluate the remainder of TSF1 and all of TSF2 to determine the potential for reprocessing and relocation of the historical tailings as part of TDG's ongoing commitment to clean-up and remediation of the historical mining that took place at Baker-Shasta.\"Options for Future Tailings StorageIn summer 2024, TDG also commissioned a review of the dry-stack tailings storage capacity within the footprint of the Permitted Mine Area and TDG's surrounding mineral tenure. Preliminary work by independent consultants has identified...
