A.I.S. Resources’ Bright Gold Project Drill Core Split and Sent for Assay This Week
VANCOUVER, Feb. 02, 2022 - A.I.S. Resources Ltd. (TSXV: AIS, OTCQB: AISSF) (the "Company" or "AIS") announces it has completed logging the 224m of diamond drill core acquired from the Golden Bar reef drilling program on exploration licence EL006194. The core has been sawn, split and bagged for delivery to the laboratory for assay.
About the Bright Gold Project
Bright Gold Project EL006194 contains more than 250 historical gold mines, reefs (quartz veins) and gold occurrences dating back to the 1890's. Historically the EL006194 yielded 341,000 oz gold at grades ranging between 7-9912g/t, averaging 22 g/t Au. The largest producers on the Project were the Rose, Thistle and Shamrock mine @ 22.2g/t Au for 140,000 oz and the Oriental Mine @ 28g/t for 6,194 oz. The Bright Gold Project is in a premium location and only 6 km from E79's Happy Valley Project. The Project and surrounds is comprised of many major historical workings and recorded production of over 730,0003 oz from both alluvial and rock mining. In December 2021 AIS acquired 60% of the Bright Gold Project from Clarus Resources Pty Ltd with the option to acquire 100%.

Phil Thomas, CEO commented, "We have been extremely active logging the core at the Golden Bar Prospect from the two drill holes completed to 104 and 119 metres. The core will be submitted for assay very shortly. Our geology team is currently preparing for some soil sampling to give us additional data on the targets identified prior to drilling. Given E79's success and that it's located only 7km away, we plan to identify and target similar gold bearing structures".
