New Placer Dome Gold Corp. Drills 38.1 Metres of 1.08 G/t Gold in the First Drill Hole at South Mine Fault and Continues to Expand Bolo Gold Zones at Depth

16.09.2020  |  CNW

VANCOUVER, Sept. 16, 2020 - New Placer Dome Gold Corp. ("New Placer Dome" or the "Company") (TSXV: NGLD) (OTCQB: NPDCF) (FSE: BM5) is pleased to report analytical results for the first reverse circulation (RC) drill hole of the Company's 2020 Bolo Gold-Silver Project. With the completion of the first drill-hole BL20-01, the Company has doubled the vertical gold and silver continuity (on section) versus the historical drilling. In addition to the gold values, the new drill-hole has also reported significant silver results. The Bolo Gold-Silver Project is located in the proven and prolific mining area of Nevada, USA.

Hole BL20-01 located in the South Mine Fault Zone, intersected 1.08 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 26 g/t silver over 38.1 metres; including 1.80 g/t gold over 12.2 metres1 (Table 1). The BL20-01 intercept expands gold mineralization approximately 40 metres vertically below 2019 drill hole BL19-04 that intersected 122 metres of 1.2 g/t gold in hole BL19-041,2 and delivers on one of the key goals of the 2020 Bolo Project drill campaign, which is test Carlin-style gold mineralization at depth in the South Mine Fault Zone where it remains open and untested (Figure 1 below).

To date, 8 RC drill holes totaling 2,301 metres have been drilled as part of the 2020 Bolo Project drill program. The Company expects continued news flow over the coming weeks and months as assay results are received from the lab.

Kris Raffle, P.Geo., and a director of the New Placer Dome comments, "The success of our 2019 Bolo drill campaign has given us the confidence to fully test new targets in 2020 and the interpreted south-dipping continuity of gold-silver mineralization at the South Mine Fault Zone. The results of this initial drill hole, and visual indications of Carlin-style mineralization within additional drill holes for which assays are pending, are encouraging."

RC drilling at Bolo defines a 1.2 kilometer north-south trending corridor of gold-silver mineralization containing the South Mine Fault Zone, Uncle Sam, and Northeast Extension zones. Gold mineralization at Bolo exhibits characteristics of classic Carlin-type mineralization, including strong subvertical structural control in addition to evidence of gold mineralization extending laterally at low angles within favorable silty carbonate units. The relatively untested 500 m strike length South Mine Fault-Uncle Sam segment is particularly prospective and is the focus of New Placer Dome's 2020 exploration designed to prove-out these compelling structural and stratigraphic gold targets.

Methodology and QA/QC
The analytical work reported on herein was performed by ALS Global (ALS), Vancouver Canada. ALS is an ISO-IEC 17025:2017 and ISO 9001:2015 accredited geoanalytical laboratory and is independent of the New Placer Dome and the QP. RC drill samples were subject to crushing at a minimum of 70% passing 2 mm, followed by pulverizing of a 250 gram split to 85% passing 75 microns. Gold determination was via standard atomic absorption (AA) finish 30 gram fire-assay (FA) analysis, in addition to 48 element ICP-MS geochemistry. New Placer Dome follows industry standard procedures for the work carried out on the Bolo Gold-Silver Project, with a quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) program. Blank, duplicate and standard samples were inserted into the sample sequence sent to the laboratory for analysis. New Placer Dome detected no significant QA/QC issues during review of the data. New Placer Dome is not aware of any drilling, sampling, recovery or other factors that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the data referred to herein.

About New Placer Dome Gold Corp.
New Placer Dome Gold Corp. is a gold exploration company focused on acquiring and advancing gold projects in Nevada. New Placer Dome's flagship Kinsley Mountain Gold Project, located 90 km south of the Long Canyon Mine (currently in production under the Newmont/Barrick Joint Venture), hosts Carlin-style gold mineralization, previous run of mine heap leach production, and NI 43-101 indicated resources containing 418,000 ounces of gold grading 2.63 g/t Au (4.95 million tonnes) and inferred resources containing 117,000 ounces of gold averaging 1.51 g/t Au (2.44 million tonnes)3. The Bolo Project, located 90 km northeast of Tonopah, Nevada, is another core asset, similarly hosting Carlin-style gold mineralization. New Placer Dome also holds an option to acquire 100% of the Troy Canyon Project, located 120 km south of Ely, Nevada. New Placer Dome is run by a strong management and technical team consisting of capital market and mining professionals with the goal of maximizing value for shareholders through new mineral discoveries, committed long-term partnerships, and the advancement of exploration projects in geopolitically favourable jurisdictions.
