Gold Standard Drilling Expands Near-surface Oxide Gold Mineralization at the Dark Star Deposit

18.11.2020  |  GlobeNewswire

Stepout hole DR20-02 intersects 61.0m of 0.66 g Au/t including 24.4m of 1.03 g Au/t at Main Dark Star. North Dark Star DR20-09 intersects 231.7m of 2.66 g Au/t.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 18, 2020 -- Gold Standard Ventures Corp. (TSX: GSV; NYSE AMERICAN: GSV) (“Gold Standard” or the “Company”) today reported results of nine reverse-circulation (RC) drill holes at the Dark Star deposit on its 100%-owned/controlled Railroad-Pinion Project in Nevada’s Carlin Trend (refer to Dark Star location map - Nov. 18, 2020 and Dark Star Significant Intercepts - Nov. 18, 2020). Six holes targeted and intersected up-dip, near-surface oxide mineralization to the east of GSV’s drilling at Main Dark Star.

Jonathan Awde, CEO and Director of Gold Standard commented: “Our Feasibility Study, currently in progress will utilize these drilling results as part of the updated resources and reserves. The results indicate the ability to expand Main Dark Star to the east. This near surface oxide could have positive impacts to the feasibility study, including low strip up front ounces during early production.”

Key Highlights from Dark Star:

  • Stepout holes DR20-01 through -06 intersected thick intervals of oxide mineralization to the east of the existing GSV drilling at Main Dark Star. Mineralization begins at the current topographic surface and remains open to the east along a strike length of approximately 330m. These results expand mineralization to the east beyond the current block model approximately 60m. Follow up drilling is planned on these intercepts.

  • DR20-09 intersected 231.7m @ 2.66 g Au/t, mineralization starts just below surface and is oxide to depth. The hole infilled a gap in drilling to tie surface sample results, 18.0m of 3.08 g Au/t (see October 9, 2019 news release), to vertically-continuous, +1 g Au/t oxide mineralization at North Dark Star.

Dark Star drill results are as follows:

Drill Hole Method Incl. Azimuth TD (m) Intercept (m) Thickness (m) Grade (g Au/t)
DR20-01 RC -45 079 80.8 0-19.8 19.8 0.63
DR20-02 RC -45 090 91.4 0-61.0 61.0 0.66
Including 6.1-30.5 24.4 1.03
DR20-03 RC -45 090 91.4 0-53.4 53.4 0.52
DR20-04 RC -45 108 70.1 0-27.4 27.4 0.47
DR20-05 RC -45 090 80.8 0-13.7 13.7 0.51
19.8-41.1 21.3 0.26
DR20-06 RC -45 090 82.3 0-10.7 10.7 0.20
DR20-07 RC -85 090 323.1 No results >0.14 g Au/t
DR20-08 RC -78 270 350.5 No results >0.14 g Au/t
DR20-09 RC -90 259.1 0-3.1 3.1 0.16
27.4-259.1 231.7 2.66
Including 140.2-211.8 71.6 4.54

Gold intervals reported in this table were calculated using a 0.14 g Au/t cutoff for oxide mineralization. Weighted averaging has been used to calculate all reported intervals. True widths are estimated at 70-90% of drilled thicknesses.

Don Harris, Gold Standard’s General Manager commented: “The near surface oxide mineralization encountered in drill holes DR20-01 through DR20-06 are currently in or behind the Main Dark Star highwall design and remain open to the east. This material could be an important source during start up for immediate production ounces and/or leach pad over-liner material. The Main portion of the deposit remains open along 330 m of strike and will continue to be developed with additional drilling. The North Dark Star drill hole (DR20-09) was designed to fill a gap between 3m channel surface samples and the greater ore body currently carried as a resource and reserve. The results confirm the oxide and higher grade nature of North Dark Star, with individual gold values ranging from 0.15 to 12.8 g Au/t, and ties the 18m @ 3.08 g Au/t found in surface sampling to the greater deposit.”

Sampling Methodology, Chain of Custody, Quality Control and Quality Assurance
All drill sampling was conducted under the supervision of the Company’s project geologists and the chain of custody from the project to the sample preparation facility was continuously monitored. A blank, certified reference material, or rig duplicate was inserted approximately every tenth sample. The samples were shipped to Paragon Geochemical’s certified laboratory in Sparks, NV where they were crushed and pulverized. Resulting sample pulps were digested and analyzed for gold using fire assay fusion and an ICP-OES finish on a 30-gram split. All other elements were determined by ICP analysis. Data verification of the analytical results included a statistical analysis of the standards, blanks and duplicates that must pass certain parameters for acceptance to insure accurate and verifiable results.

Drill hole deviation was measured by gyroscopic down hole surveys that were completed on all holes by International Directional Services of Elko, NV. Final drill collar locations are surveyed by differential GPS by Apex Surveying, LLC of Spring Creek, Nevada.

CAUTIONARY NOTE FOR U.S. INVESTORS REGARDING RESERVE AND RESOURCE ESTIMATES

All resource estimates reported by the Company were calculated in accordance with the Canadian National Instrument 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy Classification system. These standards differ significantly from the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for descriptions of mineral properties in SEC Industry Guide 7 under Regulation S-K of the U. S. Securities Act of 1933. In particular, under U. S. standards, mineral resources may not be classified as a “reserve” unless the determination has been made that mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. Accordingly, information in this press release containing descriptions of the Company’s mineral properties may not be comparable to similar information made public by US public reporting companies.

On behalf of the Board of Directors of Gold Standard,

“Jonathan Awde”
