"Soil sampling has been the most effective tool in gold exploration in the White Gold district. This year’s soil sampling program was designed to pin down anomalous structures on both the JP Ross and the White Gold properties. Sampling was done on 5m to 10m station spacing and 50m line spacing on the JP Ross and 25m station spacing on 50m line spacing on the White. The results were even better than expected with some beautiful linear soil anomalies 20-30m wide, some running up to 750m long showing up, where previous 50m space soil sampling barely gave us any indications. The JP Ross project had 54 Mini Grids put in and the White property had 17 Detail Grids. The gold soil anomalies produced from these Detail and Mini Grids will be followed up by GT Probe lines and trenching, with the intent to RAB drill up to 35 holes on the JP Ross and up to 25 holes on the White. I look forward to next round of drilling as we will be targeting the highest probability areas of our newly defined gold anomalies."
SummaryA total of 17,100 soil samples have been collected across the JP Ross and White Gold properties in the 2019 exploration program, with most sampling conducted as infill grids on existing, coarsely defined anomalies with the goal of better defining targets and geometry of potentially mineralized structures. Multiple new trends and targets were defined from this soil sampling on both the JPR and White Gold properties with follow up work ongoing, including GT Probe sampling, geophysical surveys, trenching, geologic mapping and prospecting, with a focus on defining new RAB drill targets to be tested in 2019. Extensive soil sampling has also been conducted this season on several of the Company’s other regional properties with results to be released in due course.
JP Ross PropertyA total of 12,540 soils have been collected across multiple grids covering 11 different target areas in the 2019 exploration program on the road accessible JP Ross property. The grids were planned to infill or expand areas of historic anomalous soils to better understand the geometry of potential mineralized structures. Line spacing on the grids ranged from 50 to 100m with samples spacing ranging from 5 to 10m on the lines depending on the target. Assay results for the sampling ranged from trace to 2,964 ppb Au. Statistics for the soil program and a breakdown of grids and results per target area are presented in Table 1 and 2. Highlights from specific targets are discussed below.
Target HighlightsVertigo: Four grids were placed around the Vertigo target and were designed to expand/infill the known soil anomalies on the Vertigo target and returned values from trace to 484 ppb Au. The current interpretation is that these anomalies highlight extensions of known mineralized structures on the Vertigo. The Vertigo soil anomaly is now traceable for over 1,500m along strike to the WNW and over 850m to the N-S with the soils defining multiple trends of soils >50 ppb Au associated with strongly anomalous Ag, Bi, & Pb (+/- As) and known high grade mineralized gold structures, as recently highlighted in the Company’s press release dated August 8, 2019.
Topaz: Located immediately south of the Vertigo, the Topaz has multiple gold in soil anomalies over a 1,500m x 900m N-S trending area. Sampling in 2019 focused on the northern end of the trend and returned a circular anomaly over a 200m x 150m area with values ranging from trace to 404.5ppb Au and is associated with strongly elevated Ag, Bi, & Pb.
Sabotage/Saboteur: The Sabotage is located approximately 7.8km NW of the Vertigo and covers an area of multiple gold in soil anomalies over a 5,800m x 3,600m NE trending area. Individual anomalies over the area typically trend to the WNW and NE with values ranging from trace to 2,905 ppb Au. Specific highlights include the Saboteur target which consists of an 835m WNW trending linear zone of >50 ppb Au in soils (up to 664 ppb Au), and a 390m NE trending linear anomaly at the NE end of the area with values >100 ppb Au (up to 1,179 ppb Au). The anomalies are typically gold only with no significant pathfinder association and occur along interpreted 2nd and 3rd order structures adjacent to a regional scale E-W fault; similar to the Companies Golden Saddle deposit 30km to the south.
Stage Fright: The Stage Fright is located 9.2km to the NW of Vertigo and covers multiple gold in soil anomalies over a 2,700m x 400m, NE trending. Soil sampling in 2019 focused on the NE and SW parts of the trend and returned values from trace to 667 ppb Au. Soil sampling conducted on the central portion of the target in 2018 defined targets for previously announced GT Probe and prospecting results that included multi-station GT Probe hits >1 g/t Au and prospecting samples up to 94.2 g/t Au associated with E-W and NE trending structures, as reported in White Gold Corp. press release dated August 8, 2019.
X-Man: The X-Man is located 12km NE of the Vertigo. It forms a circular gold in soil anomaly over a 610m x 550m area with values ranging from trace to 442ppb Au and is associated with anomalous Ag, Bi, Cu, & Pb. Uniquely, the anomaly is hosted within volcanic rocks of the Carmacks assemblage and geochemical patterns and alteration from the area indicate that potential for Cu-Au+/-Mo porphyry style mineralization.
North Frenzy/South Frenzy: The North and South Frenzy areas are located 9.2km and 7.6km N of the Vertigo, respectively, and cover multiple soil anomalies over a 3,400m x 2,700m N-S area. Individual assays range from trace to 2,964 ppb Au. Anomalous zones at the north end of the area (North Frenzy) generally trend N-S and have a strong associated with anomalous As, Ag, Bi, & Pb; similar to Vertigo. The best-defined anomaly consists of a N-S trending zone of >100 ppb Au, traceable for 950m. Anomalous zones on the southern end of the area (South Frenzy) appear to be associated with NW and NE oriented structural corridors and are typically gold only anomalies.
Psycho: The Psycho is located 5.2 km NE of the Vertigo and covers multiple gold in soil anomalies over a 3,500 x 950m NE trending area with values ranging from trace to 1,711 ppb Au. The strongest anomaly occurs within the centre of the trend and consists of a 500m x 180m NW trending zone of anomalous gold in soils >50ppb Au (up to 1,711 ppb Au). The geology of the target is currently poorly understood and follow up mapping and prospecting on the anomalies is in progress.
Suspicion: The Suspicion covers two gold in soil anomalies within a 1,400m x 500m N-S area. The northern anomaly consists trends WNW and is traceable over 450m and is open along trend. 2019 soil sampling on the trend returned values from trace to 1,159 ppb Au. Historic soils on the target are up to 4,263 ppb Au. The southern anomaly is NE trending, traceable over 700m and returned values from trace to 366 ppb Au. Both anomalies are associated with strongly anomalous Ag, Bi, & Pb similar to the adjacent Vertigo target, 4km to the NW.

QA/QCThe analytical work for the 2019 program is being performed by ALS Canada Ltd. (ALS) and Bureau Veritas Commodities Canada Ltd. (BV), both internationally recognized analytical services provider, at their respective Vancouver, British Columbia laboratories. Sample preparation was carried out at their Whitehorse, Yukon facilities. All rock, GT Probe, RC chip, and diamond core samples were submitted to ALS and were prepared using procedure PREP-31H (crush 90% less than 2mm, riffle split off 500g, pulverize split to better than 85% passing 75 microns) and analyzed by method Au-AA23 (30g fire assay with AAS finish) and ME-ICP41 (0.5g, aqua regia digestion and ICP-AES analysis). Samples containing >10g/t Au are reanalyzed using method Au-GRAV21 (30g Fire Assay with gravimetric finish). All soil samples were submitted to BV and were prepared using procedure SS80 (dry at 60 C and sieve 100g at -80 mesh) and analyzed by method AQ201 (aqua regia digestion and ICP-MS analysis). The reported work will be completed using industry standard procedures, including a quality assurance/quality control (“QA/QC”) program consisting of the insertion of certified standard, blanks and duplicates into the sample stream.
