[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd. (“West Red Lake Gold” or “WRLG” or the “Company”) (TSXV:WRLG) (OTC: WRLGF) is pleased to report initial drill results from its previously announced Phase 1 exploration program from its 100% owned Rowan Property located in the prolific Red Lake Gold District of Northwestern, Ontario, Canada (see news release of April 19, 2023). The Company has received assay results from 10 of the 16 holes completed so far. HIGHLIGHTS: 90% of holes for which assays have been received show intervals grading > 5 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au”) -- highlighted intervals outlined in Table 1. The high-grade mineralized vein zones encountered at the Rowan Mine are in-line with expectations on gold grade, confirm the geologic model, and help to bolster the existing high-grade (9.2 g/t Au) 827,462 ounce Inferred Mineral Resource at the Rowan Mine. Sections for the Rowan Mine drilling outlined in this release are provided in Figures 3 through 6. Mineralized zones encountered at Red Summit NE have confirmed the Company’s thesis on the geologic model and potential controls on mineralization in this area. Hole RLG-23-134 Intersected 8.0 meters (m) @ 10.34 g/t Au, from 71m to 79m, Including, 0.5m @ 107.99 g/t Au, from 71.7m to 72.2m; 1m @ 9.68 g/t Au, from 76m to 77m; and 1.3m @ 8.25 g/t Au, from 77.7m to 79m Hole RLG-23-131 Intersected 1.1m @ 68.46 g/t Au, from 88m to 89.1m Hole RLG-23-132 Intersected 5.5m @ 13.21 g/t Au, from 67.5m to 73m, Including, 0.5m @ 137.22 g/t Au, from 70.5m to 71m and, 1.81m @ 29.04 g/t Au, from 166.19m to 168m Including, 0.5m @ 104.53 g/t Au, from 166.19m to 166.69m Hole RLG-23-139 Intersected 1.1m @ 48.04 g/t Au, from 21.4m to 22.5m A total of 14 diamond drill holes totaling 2,314m have been completed so far in 2023 at the Rowan Mine area and 780m in 2 drill holes testing targets in the Red Summit NE area. Fire and metallic screen assays have been returned for 10 out of 16 holes completed during Phase 1 drilling at the Rowan Mine and Red Summit NE target areas, with 6 holes still pending assays and QAQC from the Rowan Mine area. Tom Meredith, CEO, stated, \"This impressive first round of assays from the Phase 1 drilling program at the Rowan Property confirmed and expectations based on the numerous accounts of mineralization ...
