Graycliff Exploration Expands Near Surface High-Grade Interval in Hole 9 to 13.32 g/t Gold Over 16.0 Metres
Drill Hole J-9-21 intersected a mineralized interval of 13.32 g/t gold ("Au") over 16.0 metres, including the previously announced interval of 52.0 g/t Au over 4.0 m (see Press Release dated June 15, 2021), as detailed below:
Drill Hole | From (m) | To (m) | Width (m)1 | Au (g/t) 2 |
J-9-21 | 104.0 | 120.0 | 16.0 | 13.32 |

1 - Reported intervals are down-hole lengths and not true thicknesses. True width of the mineralization cannot be determined due to the early-stage nature of the current program. 2 - Length-weighted average grades are calculated using un-capped gold assay data. |

President and CEO, James Macintosh stated: "The second hole of phase two drilling has returned a second extended intersection of mineralization with very strong gold grades throughout and provides further evidence that we are in one larger zone as mentioned when we announced the results of Hole J-8-21. Hole J-9-21 also shows us that the higher-grade mineralized zone flanked by lower-grade mineralization that we would look to include in any potential mining scenario in the future. It is important to note that highest grade intersection in Hole J-9-21 is below the depth of the historic mine workings."
