TriStar Gold - First Drill Results from Major Campaign

02.12.2020  |  Newsfile

Scottsdale, December 2, 2020 - TriStar Gold Inc.(TSXV: TSG) (OTCQX: TSGZF) (the Company or TriStar) is pleased to announce results from the first six holes (649m) from the current 12,500m campaign. This drilling campaign with two reverse circulation drill rigs and one core rig is designed to: (1) Complete drilling required for the prefeasibility study, (2) Test for additional near-surface conglomerate hosted gold and (3) Test for new targets of remobilized gold hosted near granite contacts.

"The next few months are going to be exciting. Artificial intelligence technology has brought us to the point where we've got a highly detailed 3D model of the different lobes of sediments that were stacked together to create the CDS deposit. Our team of site geologists and external consultants has begun working with this model, refining it with new drilling information, so that we can use it to confidently target well-mineralized lobes." says Nick Appleyard, TriStar's President and CEO. "When drilling resumed, the first holes we were able to drill were in Esperança East, to extend the known resource there. Since then, we've been drilling new targets, including the areas identified as part of the CDS Deeps program that focuses on remobilized gold at depth. The results will now be flowing consistently well into next year".

Results from the first holes are in line with expectations, with all holes that reached target depth encountering significant intersections of gold mineralization. Drillhole RC-20-534 in the 'valley area' adjacent to Esperança South had to be abandoned at only 49m and will be completed at a later date. This then required that the RC rig moved to drier ground at Esperança East until a larger compressor could be mobilized to site.

RC-20-536 72 73 1.0m @ 0.6g/t

Artificial intelligence and exploration targeting

Evaluation of the multi-element geochemistry has led to a breakthrough in stratigraphic mapping at Castelo de Sonhos. Artificial intelligence algorithms have been able to identify stratigraphically continuous clusters that appear to represent distinct depositional phases of the original alluvial fan that brought the gold into the deposit. The resulting surface map can be seen in Figure 2. and the complete 3D model for Esperança South will be used both for additional exploration and for completing the prefeasibility study. The map and the 3D interpretation will be continually improved with information from new holes.

All drill holes are analyzed for gold and then every second sample is analyzed for multi-element geochemistry, allowing each new drill hole to be used as a vector to the most promising reefs in the system. The multi-element geochemistry from these for 5 completed holes will be analyzed to refine the next round of drill targets.
