Skukum deposits These drill holes (Table 1) focused on filling gaps larger than approximately 50-60 metres between historical drill hole intercepts on the Rainbow Zone (Figure 1) at the Skukum Creek deposit. The results demonstrate continuity of the higher-grade gold and silver mineralization and will be used to upgrade resources. \"Our first 2021 drill results successfully confirmed continuity of the gold mineralization in the upper portion of the Rainbow gold zone along with substantial silver grades, which greatly improves our confidence in the resource and expected future economics of the Project,\" stated Kevin Weston, CEO of Whitehorse Gold. \"With the three drill rigs testing our Skukum Creek, Goddell and Mt. Skukum deposits, we anticipate a continual flow of results throughout the rest of this year and are excited at the potential to advance the Project towards a development path.\" Table 1: Assay results Hole ID1From (m)To (m)Interval (m)2,3Au (g/t)Ag (g/t)AuEQ (g/t)4,5Pb(%)Zn (%)ZoneSC21-00328.9629.570.612.72490.037.70.260.09Rainbow ZoneSC21-00496.00105.489.481.482.82.50.30.46Incl.102.21103.000.7912.5506.419.60.991.21SC21-00579.6585.155.504.3279.98.30.560.83Incl.79.6583.153.505.7381.911.00.730.9788.1888.750.573.9203.06.70.591.59SC21-00678.6487.578.932.5121.04.20.470.82Incl.78.6483.044.403.8185.66.40.691.09Incl.79.6781.551.884....
