Visionary Gold Corp. Announces the Discovery of Two New Prospects and Samples 9.07% Copper, 4.15 g/t Gold and 0.09% Cobalt at New Black Rock Prospect

05.05.2022  |  Newsfile

Vancouver, May 5, 2022 - Visionary Gold Corp. (TSXV: VIZ) ("Visionary" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the discovery of two new exploration targets 50 kilometres ("km") northeast of its Wolf Gold Project in Fremont County Wyoming. The Black Rock gold and copper prospect and the Tin Cup copper prospect were identified during Visionary's ongoing regional exploration program and are located on lands purchased from Innovative Exploration Ventures in 2021 (See May 10th, 2021 Press Release).

"The new Black Rock and Tin Cup prospects are compelling new gold ('Au') and base metals targets," explains Visionary CEO Wes Adams. "Copper (Cu), Gold (Au), and Cobalt (Co) and Nickel (Ni) values found at Black Rock, and Cu values found over a large area at Tin Cup, represent different styles of mineralization than those found at the orogenic Au targets at Wolf and Lewiston-Miz. What's most compelling is that all targets are situated within the same regional structural corridor, which we now know contains Cu and Au and other mineralization 50 km to the northeast."

Visionary has already ramped up field work at these new prospects ahead of the 2022 drill program, which will commence around July 1st. The 2022 drill program includes drill holes planned at the 3km long Lewiston-Miz target, the Wind Hill target, and Wolf Shear targets as well as the new Black Rock target. Additional field work and geophysical surveying is planned at Tin Cup prior to possible drilling in Q3.

Black Rock Prospect

The Black Rock Prospect is located approximately 60km northeast of Visionary's Wolf Gold Project and 13km north of Jeffrey City, WY, within Archean basement rocks of the Wyoming Craton. Significant Au, Cu, and Co values have been identified in soil and rock chip samples along a sheared lithologic contact within pre-Cambrian granite gneiss and magnetite-rich gabbro. A subsequent ground magnetic survey suggests that Cu and Au mineralization is associated with a high magnetic contrast zone which appears to represent a sheared lithologic contact where surface mineralization was discovered. Visionary has staked 35 mining claims and leased 640 acres of land owned by the State of Wyoming at Black Rock, covering a total land position of ​​approximately 1,340 acres.

To date, a total of 52 rock samples and 218 grid soil samples have been analyzed, with select rock samples in the target area listed in Table 1. Sample results ranged from below the detection limit to the high values shown in the table below.

Visionary's Spring 2022 field program at Black Rock, which is already underway, will include detailed structural and lithological mapping, additional ground magnetic surveying and possible electromagnetics surveying to test for extensions of the mineralized structure ahead of drilling planned for later this year.

Tin Cup
The Tin Cup prospect is located approximately 10km west-northwest of Black Rock and comprises a total of 93 claims and one section of state lease land covering an area of ​​2,500 acres. A total of 181 rock samples were collected along trends of observed Cu- and Fe-oxides associated with identified structures at Tin Cup; Copper values ranged from the lower detection limit to 5.61% Cu. The prospect area is situated directly along the North Granite Mountains Fault system; on the northern Tin Cup Springs trend initial results have identified anomalous to 1.04% Cu at surface for 2.5km of east-west strike. To the south, along the northeast trending Red Boy structure, Cu has been sampled in rock outcropping along 2.3km of strike yielding anomalous copper grades up to 5.61% Cu. Mineralization appears in banded chert, jasperoid, and gossans that are bound by granite gneiss, basalt, all with variable magnetite content and visible Cu oxide staining; chalcopyrite has also been observed in less oxidized samples. A ground magnetic survey is in progress which will provide additional information about the underlying structural geology. Field work in 2022 will consist of detailed mapping, grid soil sampling, and geophysical surveying of the area to assess the potential extent of sulfide mineralization prior to drilling.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) Technical Disclosure

Soil Samples QA/QC
Soil samples were collected by hand using long nosed shovels from C horizon soils where possible. Approximately 0.5 kilograms of soil sample was collected; organic material and gravel were removed from the sample. Samples were kept at the Company's secure, locked storage facility until shipped direct to ALS Geochemistry's preparation laboratory in Elko, NV. Soils were then dried at 60 degrees Celsius and sieved to 180 microns (80 mesh). Twenty-five grams of sample is digested with Aqua Regia and analyzed by ICP-MS. Multielement analysis was carried out by ALS Geochemistry of Reno, NV (Code: AuME-ST43), a super trace multielement package that analyzes for 53 elements including Au, platinum ("Pt") and palladium ("Pd").

QA/QC included the following: industry certified standards were inserted into the sample stream along with analytical blank material at the Company's secure facility; sample duplicates were collected in the field. 153 QA/QC samples of 3211 total soil samples were applied to the sample stream, or approximately 5 percent.
