Gold Basin Resources Corp. Reports Additional Broad Gold Intersections

01.06.2022  |  The Newswire
Including 80.6m @ 1.0 G/T Gold from Maiden Drill Program at Stealth Deposit

Vancouver, June 1, 2022 - Gold Basin Resources Corp. (the "Company" or "GXX", (TSXV:GXX); (OTC:GXXFF) is pleased to provide an update on the ongoing Drilling Program at the Cyclopic Deposit and the Company's maiden drill program on its 100%-owned Stealth oxide gold project in North-West Arizona.

HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:

  • Stealth drilling continues to intersect thick gold intersections with grades exceeding 1g/t Au.

  • Latest Results include:

  • 80.6m (True Width) @ 1.0g/t Au from 22.9m in hole ST22-009

  • 70.1m @ 1.0g/t Au from 13.7m in hole ST22-013

  • 32m @ 1.3g/t Au from 42.7m in hole ST22-017

  • 47.2m @ 1.0g/t Au from surface in hole ST22-021

  • 29.0m (True Width) @ 1.4g/t Au from 45.7m in hole ST22-023

  • Drilling intersections show a consistent broad zone of higher-grade (1.0g/t) gold mineralisation along the 350m of strike length drilled to date. The deposit remains open in all directions.

  • The mineralised trend along the major Stealth fault clearly indicates the potential to extend and join to the Red Cloud deposit south of Stealth.

  • Gold mineralisation has similar sub-horizontal geometry to the Cyclopic Deposit with high-grade sub-vertical cross cutting gold bearing structures also being evident.

  • Total metres drilled at Gold Basin during 2022 campaign is 11,799m in 109 holes with 3,714m drilled at Stealth.

  • The Company owns both the surface and mineral rights of the Stealth deposit.

  • 3000+ assays at ALS laboratory still outstanding

Michael Povey, CEO of Gold Basin commented: "The drilling results from our Stealth program continue to provide broad gold intersections, most of which are much greater than 20m thick and exceed 1 g/t gold. The new "hits" of 80m and 70m from almost surface are outstanding, not to mention the other significant intersections of even higher-grade mineralisation. The pleasing factor is the overall consistency of gold mineralisation in almost all the drill holes. Given that the Stealth fault is a major structure running roughly NW-SE for at least 8km on the Company's property and is clearly mineralised to a far greater degree than was previously thought, the scale of the potential along strike as well as depth presents the Company with even more exciting exploration opportunities".

The drilling completed at the Stealth oxide gold deposit focussed on confirming historical drilling intercepts and testing both lateral and depth extensions of the known gold mineralisation. Results have exceeded all expectations, with multiple broad intersections of gold mineralisation in 23 of the 25 holes drilled. These intersections include 17 with a grade over 1g/t Au and an average thickness of 38m; in addition to these, multiple significant intersections of mineralisation greater than 0.5g/t Au also contributed to delineate a deep mineralised zone that extends almost from surface along the 350m strike length drilled.

The 2022 drill program at Stealth has tested a relatively small area (350m x 150m) of the mapped Stealth Fault that is over 8km in strike length and remains largely undrilled for most of this extent.

Background

The Gold Basin oxide-gold project is located in North-West Arizona, within a 1.5-hour drive over major highways and paved roads from Las Vegas, Nevada. Gold Basin benefits from excellent accessibility and infrastructure , with high-voltage powerlines running directly from the Hoover Dam hydroelectric plant through the property.

The major features of the project are two sub-parallel, regional-scale, north-west-trending structures, approximately 1km apart that host the Cyclopic and Stealth deposits, the two major historical gold deposits on the property.

The current drilling program followed up on the excellent results from the 100-hole, ~10,000m Phase I program completed in 2020-21. The current program is testing multiple targets at the Cyclopic and Stealth deposits.

The Stealth Fault has been mapped for over 8km, a similar length to the main Cyclopic Fault. The 2022 drill program at Stealth has tested a relatively small area (350m x 150m) of the mapped Stealth Fault, which is over 8km in strike length and remains largely undrilled for most of this extent.

Quality Control and Quality Assurance

Gold Basin Resources Corp. initiated the Phase 2 RC drilling program on its Gold Basin property in February, 2022 and has to date drilled 11,799m in 109 holes, with hole depths ranging from 91m to 244m. The majority of holes are vertical and drilled with dry air (no injected water or other fluid) using a centre-return hammer.

Samples are collected every 5 feet (1.52m) and are reduced on-site using a triple-tier Gilson splitter, producing a 2kg-3kg assay sample and a 3kg-5kg twin sample that can be used for metallurgical testing or re-assay work. Coarse blank material, standard reference pulps, and split duplicates are inserted into the sample stream on a 1-in-20 sample basis such that each 23-sample group contains one blank, one duplicate, and one reference pulp. Three standard reference pulps at three different gold grades (0.154ppm, 0.778ppm, and 2.58ppm) are being used. One 1.52m drill interval in every four intervals is weighed in order to monitor recovery.

Assay samples are placed in shipping sacks together with the field inserts upon completion of each hole. After four holes are completed, all assay samples are transported in their respective shipping sacks ALS in Tucson, Arizona by a GXX contractor. Prior to shipping, all samples are maintained under the direct control and supervision of the on-site geological staff.

Upon arrival in Tucson, AZ at ALS (ALS), the samples are prepared using ALS codes CRU-31, SPL-31 and PUL-32 procedures (pulverize 1kg split to 85% passing 75 micron) and fire-assayed for gold using ALS Code Au-AA25 procedure (30gm fire assay with AA finish). ALS also inserts its own certified reference materials plus blanks and duplicates.
