NEWS RELEASE

 

DRILLING BEGINS ON THE LAPON CANYON PROJECT A NEVADA CANYON OWNED ROYALTY

 

Reno, Nevada. June 6, 2024, Nevada Canyon Gold Corp. (OTC Markets: NGLD) (The “Company” or “Nevada Canyon”) is pleased to announce it has been informed that drilling has begun on the Lapon Canyon Project, (the “Project”) a Nevada Canyon owned royalty, located in Mineral County, Nevada.

 

Nevada Canyon recently acquired a 3% Net Smelter Royalty (“NSR”) on the Project, (see news release 05-28-2024) Walker River Resources Corp. (“Walker River”) owns a 100% undivided interest in the Project consisting of 96 unpatented lode mining claims identified as the Sleeper and Lapon Rose claim groups situated in Mineral County, Nevada, within the northern portion of the Walker Lane gold trend.

 

Walker River Resources Corp (TSX.V: WRR), announced on June 6, 2024 (see WRR news release 06-06-2024) that reverse circulation (“RC”) drilling has begun at the Lapon Canyon Project, located in Mineral County, Nevada, 60 km SE of Yerington, NV.

 

The initial 2024 drill program at Lapon Canyon will consist of exploration drilling near the historical Lapon Canyon Mine, the “Central Zone”, and the newly discovered “Hot Spot Zone”. Drill holes are planned to extend known gold-bearing mineralized zones along trend and at depth, as well as to target new areas of mineralization previously untested.

 

Lapon Canyon’s “Hotspot Zone” is a primary target for the 2024 drill program. Following up on the blind, high-grade, near surface discovery made in 2021, the Company will carry out grid-style drilling over the target, testing for extension of the mineralized zone in all directions as well as for continuity with the mineralization of the “Central Zone”. Grid drilling will consist of pads placed at approximately 30 m centres on section, with up to five holes planned per pad. The mineralization is not visible at surface, as it is overlain by approximately 3 meters of loose colluvium, making the target blind, but also making drill road access and pad construction quicker at less cost.

 

Surficial mapping and rock sampling will be carried out at bedrock exposures surrounding the Lapon Canyon gold targets. Structural data collection will be a key objective, as Walker aims to focus in on the structural controls of high-grade mineralization and the broad disseminated deposits enveloping them.

 

The Company also announces it has retained Serac Exploration (“Serac”) of Vancouver BC., a full-service mineral exploration consulting firm. Serac will be responsible for the management and supervision of the drilling database, geological mapping, producing drill logs from RC chips, and producing a three-dimensional model of the Lapon Gold project. Serac’s initial interpretations of Lapon’s historical data have been used to produce a geological model of the Central and Hot Spot zones, which has already greatly enhanced the planning and design of Walker’s upcoming 2024 drill program.

 

Walker River has completed considerable exploration work to date, with numerous drill hole intercepts that have indicated significant gold mineralization. The drill programs at Lapon Canyon will consist of definition and systematic drilling on section for geological modelling purposes, exploration drilling to discover new gold mineralization, extension of known gold mineralization, in several directions, including at depth. The results from the 2024 drill programs and subsequent data compilation will enable the completion of an initial NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource on the Project.

 

 

 

About the Lapon Canyon Project

 

Lapon Canyon hosts historical, high grade gold mining with approximately 2,000 feet of underground workings in three adits. Historical underground work returned numerous assay values in the one-ounce-per-ton range. (NI 43-101, Montgomery and Barr, 2004). Walker River has completed considerable exploration work to date, with numerous drill hole intercepts that have indicated significant gold mineralization. The Project is easily accessible by secondary state roads from the main highway (15 miles), and is located approximately 40 miles southeast of Yerington, Nevada. A state power grid transmission line passes within 2 miles of the Project.
