Elevation Gold Announces Inaugural Drilling at the Florence Hill Exploration Target

31.05.2022  |  PR Newswire

VANCOUVER, BC, May 31st, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Elevation Gold Mining Corp. (TSXV: ELVT) (OTCQX: EVGDF) (the "Company" or "Elevation Gold") is pleased to announce that it has secured a diamond core drill rig and expects to commence drilling at its Florence Hill exploration target in mid-June 2022 The Florence Hill target is located approximately 4.5 kilometers to the southeast of the Moss Mine, (see Figure 1: Florence Hill Location).

The exploration drilling program will include approximately 3,800 meters of oriented diamond core drilling focused primarily on the Florence Hill exploration target (see Figure 2: Drillhole Location Map). Additional drill testing of the nearby fault-hosted Silver Creek Springs and West Oatman epithermal vein exploration targets may be conducted as part of this program, depending on information and results obtained from the main Florence Hill exploration target drilling.

Michael G. Allen, President of Elevation Gold, stated "We are excited to be the first company to drill test the Florence Hill exploration target, especially considering its location between the historic Oatman District, from which over two million ounces of high-grade gold were produced, and the currently producing Moss vein system. Our evaluation of the target has led us to believe that there is the potential for a significant new gold discovery."

Warwick S. Board, Vice President, Exploration of Elevation Gold, commented, "There are multiple different geological, geochemical, structural, geophysical, geographical, and alteration features coincident in the Florence Hill exploration target area. Our thesis is that the Florence Hill exploration target represents the upper steam-heated parts of a structurally controlled low- to intermediate sulphidation epithermal system that was superimposed on intermediate to felsic composition lava dome host rocks at the junction between the Silver Creek caldera margin and Walker Lane structures. Given the size of the alteration anomaly in the Florence Hill-Grapevine area and its coincidence with a major structural intersection, the possibility exists that the Moss and Oatman District low sulphidation epithermal vein systems were driven by a heat source located beneath Florence Hill. Geological similarities to the El Peñon Mine operated by Yamana Gold in Chile and the recently discovered AngloGold Ashanti Silicon deposit in Nevada are being used to guide our exploration efforts at Florence Hill. Three other target areas along the caldera margin exhibiting similar size and geological features to Florence Hill are currently being evaluated."

Florence Hill Exploration Target

The Florence Hill exploration target is located approximately 4.5 kilometers to the southeast of the Moss Mine (see Figure 1: Florence Hill Location). The target consists of an approximately 1.75 kilometer long by one-kilometer-wide zone of intensely advanced argillic altered lava dome dacite and rhyolite intrusive and volcaniclastic rocks along the margin of the Silver Creek caldera. WNW- and NW-trending structures, including those hosting the West Oatman and Silver Creek Springs exploration targets (within a kilometer to the west), and the Gold Road Mine (approximately 2.5 kilometers to the southeast) appear to intersect the caldera margin structure in the Florence Hill area. These structures are steeply (>80 degrees) southwest dipping in the Florence Hill exploration target area. The intense advanced argillic alteration includes kaolinite and alunite with minor dickite and pyrophyllite and is associated with geophysical magnetic lows and anomalous mercury along the WNW and NW-trending structures. Intense and locally vuggy silica alteration occurs in gently northeast-dipping ignimbrite horizons in the uppermost part of Florence Hill, with localized development of gold-absent incipient quartz stockwork veining. The various geological features noted in the Florence Hill exploration target are interpreted as being indicative of the uppermost parts of a fully preserved large-scale structurally controlled hydrothermal, possibly low- to intermediate sulphidation epithermal system.

Words such as "believe", "expect", "anticipate", "contemplate", "target", "plan", "goal", "aim", "intend", "continue", "budget", "estimate", "may", "will", "can", "could", "should", "schedule" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking information is necessarily based upon various estimates and assumptions including, without limitation, the expectations and beliefs of management, including that the Company can access financing, appropriate equipment and sufficient labour; assumed and future price of gold, silver and other metals; anticipated costs; ability to achieve goals; and assumptions related to the factors set forth below. While these factors and assumptions are considered reasonable by the Company as at the date of this document in light of management's experience and perception of current conditions and expected developments, these statements are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies.
