(TSXV: WHY) (\"West High Yield\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the confirmation of additional high-grade gold assays (see Table 1) including the identification of visible native gold in drill core from DDH MN22-13 (see Figures 1 and 2) and to provide an update from the 2022 6,000 metre exploration drilling program (the \"2022 Program\"). The 2022 Program was completed and closed for the winter season on November 15th at the Company's Midnight Gold claim (\"Midnight\") located in the Rossland Gold Camp area, British Columbia (see Figure 3). The three drills at Midnight demobilized in October and November. A total of 6,197 metres were completed (see Table 2) during the course of the Program. The Rossland Gold Camp historically produced over 2.76 million ounces of recovered gold and 3.52 million ounces of recovered silver.HIGHLIGHTS41 holes completed in 6,197 metre NQ2 diamond drilling programTargets tested in historical Midnight, IXL and OK mining areasAdditional high-grade gold assays including:MN22-13 72.35-72.65 metres depth - 154 g/t Au (visible gold)MN22-13 185.7-186.20 metres depth - 21.4 g/t Au (visible gold)MN22-08 38.7-39.4 metres depth - 15.85 g/t Au, andMN22-09 205.1-206.6 metres depth - 37.9 g/t AuFigure 1. NQ2 diameter core showing two visible gold occurrences in MN22-13 72.35-72.65m. Gold grains range from <1mm to 4mm as irregular particles and aggregates disseminated or along microfractures mainly in listwanized peridotite (quartz, serpentine and carbonate with Fr-Cr oxide relicts). Gold also was noted with fine to coarse-grained aggregates of brecciated pyrite and dark green chlorite, serpentine and quartz. Field of view approximately 60mm (Left) and 20mm (Right). Assay - 154 g/t Au.
