Skukum and Goddell deposits Undertook a property-wide airborne geophysics survey (magnetics, radiometrics and VLF) Surface mapping and sampling program targeting key areas of interest on the Project Camp upgrades completed The Company completed 44 diamond drill holes on the Project, undertaken with three drill rigs, that were focused on the three deposits: Skukum Creek, Mt. Skukum and Goddell. The program was comprised primarily of step out and infill holes, as well as exploration/technical holes. Additionally, a property-wide airborne geophysics survey (magnetics, radiometrics and VLF) was flown at 100-metre line spacing over the 170-sq-km property, and extensive surface mapping and sampling programs were undertaken to test areas of interest and certain of the extensive occurrences on the Project. Results from the drill program will continue to flow in over the upcoming months and the Company looks forward to releasing assays as they are received. Due to ongoing delays of analytical results from the assay labs, results from 7 of the 44 drill holes completed have been released to date. The outstanding drill results and identified geophysical anomalies are expected to contribute significantly to planning the 2022 exploration program on the Project. \"With our 2021 Skukum Gold Project exploration campaign completed, we have released drill results from 7 of the 44 drill holes to date,\" stated Kevin Weston, CEO of Whitehorse Gold. \"These initial results have shown the significant resource upgrade and expansion potential on our high-grade gold deposits and we look forward to announcing results from the remaining 37 holes over the coming months.
