TORONTO, March 24, 2021 - Graycliff Exploration Ltd. (the "Company" or "Graycliff") (CSE:GRAY)(OTCQB:GRYCF)(FSE:GE0) is pleased to announce the results of the final three drill holes from the 2020 phase one exploration core drilling program (see Press Release dated October 28, 2020) on the Company's Shakespeare Gold Project ("Shakespeare") located on the prolific Canadian Shield near Sudbury, Ontario.
Graycliff has commenced phase two (2) drilling at Shakespeare (see press release dated March 11, 2021) and expects to provide additional assay results later in Q2 2021.
2020 Core Drilling Highlights
- Drill Hole J-7-20 intersected strong near surface mineralization of 8.59 g/t gold ("Au") over 5.5 metres ("m"), including 43.60 g/t Au over 1.0 m starting at 68.5 m downhole.
- Drill Hole J-6-20 intersected near surface gold mineralization and extended the mineralized area identified in Drill Hole J-1-20, to the northeast of the historical Miller Shaft and the #3 Adit.

"Having three anomalous gold intersections in Hole 7 is a nice way to cap off a successful phase one of our maiden drilling program. We extended the current mineralized zone at depth and along strike and we identified a parallel zone in the vicinity of the historic Miller Shaft above the #3 Adit. We believe that following phases 2 and 3 of this initial drill program in 2021, we will have a much better idea of the structural and geologic controls affecting the gold mineralization", commented James Macintosh, President and CEO.
