(TSXV: AUU) (OTCQB: AUSVF) (\"Gold79\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce preliminary results for the first four drill holes (223 meters) from its recently completed 16 hole program at the Gold Chain project in western Arizona. The four holes highlighted in this release were drilled across the northernmost exposures of the Tyro target and tested broadly mineralized surface exposures at depths from 20 to 40 meters below the surface. Results from the remaining 12 holes (852m) are pending. HighlightsDrilling has confirmed broad consistent gold mineralization at the Tyro target areaDrill hole GC21-15 returned 2.0 g/t gold over 21.3m starting 12m downholeDrill hole GC21-14 returned 1.85 g/t over 19.8m starting 29m downholeTyro is largely open at depth and on strikeMr. Derek Macpherson, President & CEO stated, \"We are pleased to see the first four drill holes at Tyro reveal strong mineralization at shallow depths supporting the gold values from our preliminary surface sampling and trenching programs. These holes only tested approximately 200m of the 1 km target area at Tyro.\" Mr. Macpherson continued, \"Our ability to get these holes drilled a few days after signing the Tyro agreement is a testament to our team and the contractors that support us at Gold Chain.\"Table 1: Summary of Drill Holes GC21-13 to 16, at the Tyro TargetHole No. Total Hole Depth (m)Interval (m)Width (m)*Gold (g/t)FromToGC21-1361.032.044.212.21.7Incl.38.139.61.56.3  GC21-1461.024.453.329.01.3Incl.29.048.819.81.9Incl.39.641.11.55.0  GC21-1554.910.732.021.32.0Incl.13.721.37.63.7Incl.19.821.31.56.2  GC21-1645.718.330.512.21.7 * All widths are down hole and not corrected for true thickness.
