(TSXV: TGOL) (FSE: Z25) (OTC Pink: TNMLF) (formerly White Metal Resources Corp) (\"Thunder Gold\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce results from the first three holes of the 2023 phase one drill campaign currently underway at the Tower Mountain Gold Property, located 50-km west of Thunder Bay, ON, in the Shebandowan Greenstone Belt. Highlights:TM23-137 intersected 941.0 g/t Au over 1.50 metres with multiple sites of visible gold observed at a depth of 126.7 metres downhole within a broader interval averaging 1.81 g/t (CAPPED at 30.0 g.t Au) over 41.0 metres;TM23-137 also intersected 0.77 g/t Au over 23.0 metres and 0.83 g/t Au over 58.0 metres;TM23-138 intersected 1.26 g/t Au over 17.5 metres and 0.71 g/t over 119.0 metres;TM23-136 intersected 0.68 g/t Au over 12.0 metres and 0.75 g/t Au over 11.7 metres;The three holes establish 200 metres of mineralized strike length along a previously untested N-S corridor;All three holes terminate in mineralization;This new zone, identified by geophysics, offers over 1000 metres of untested strike length and remains open in all directions.Wes Hanson P.Geo., CEO of Thunder Gold, notes: \"Any time you come out of the gate with visible gold and the highest grade ever reported from a property with over 25,000 historical core samples, you've got to be excited. The rather impressive 941.0 g/t Au reports over a 1.5 metre interval and is driven by multiple sites of visible gold occurring within a centimetre scale quartz-carbonate-tourmaline vein intersected at a depth of 126.7 metres downhole. The vein occurs within a 41.0 metre interval averaging 1.81 g/t Au (interval capped at 30.0 g/t Au). The cap ONLY affects the 941.0 g/t interval containing the observed visible gold, all remaining assays within the 41.0 metre interval range from 0.09 to 5.80 g/t Au. \"The results from the first three holes clearly demonstrate the validity of our exploration model and the validity of Induced Polarization (\"IP\") as an efficient, accurate, exploration vector. All three holes intersected widespread, low-tenor (+0.10 g/t Au) gold mineralization from surface to the end of each hole as anticipated. Holes TM23-137 and 138 intersected elevated g...
