GOLD LINE ANNOUNCES 2022 WINTER PHASE 2 DRILL PROGRAM RESULTS FROM THE PAUBÄCKEN PROJECT

 

 

 

 

 

 

Gold Line Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: GLDL) (OTCQB: TLLZF) is pleased to announce results from the 2022 winter drill program at the Company’s Paubäcken Project, located Västerbotten County in northern Sweden.

 

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE COMPLETED DRILLING PROGRAM

  • Follow-up diamond drilling along the Aida shear corridor on the Paubäcken Project completed in November 2022 consisted of six new diamond drill holes for a total of 882 metres.
  • Drilling intersected Au mineralization over 250 metres and confirmed structural corridor over 650 metres.
  • All samples have been analysed at MSA Laboratories and all assay data received.

 

2022 WINTER EXPLORATION PROGRAM

 

The Company is excited to report that its 2022 winter drilling program has been completed and all results received. The program consisted of 882 metres in 6 diamond drill holes drilled with one drill rig.

 

The program tested 650 metres of the >5 km Aida structural corridor identified using airborne magnetic geophysics with wide spaced step outs. 2022 drilling stepped down dip and along strike of mineralization encountered in the 2021 discovery hole (22.5 m @ 2.4 g/t Au in PAU-21-003. See Dec. 27, 2021 news release).

 

Mineralization is hosted within a sheared and altered mafic volcanic unit located within the structural corridor. Hanging wall and footwall units consist of black shale and greywacke metasedimentary units. Mineralization within the volcanic unit has been encountered over 250 metres along strike and remains open to depth and along strike in both directions. Intercepts encountered include 14.55 m @ 2.44 g/t Au in 2022-AID-001, 9.75 m @ 0.78 g/t Au in 2022-AID-002, 3.35 m @ 1.61 g/t Au and 4.7 m @ 2.12 g/t Au in 2022-AID-003, and 7.2 m @ 1.35 g/t Au in 2022-AID-006.

 

Drill hole locations are shown in Figure 1 and a section through PAU-21-003 and 2022-AID-001 is shown in Figure 2.

 

Drill hole 2022-AID-005 was drilled a further 460 metres along strike to the northwest and encountered 1 m @ 1.04 g/t Au within an alteration envelope of 18 m @ 0.29 g/t Au. No significant intercepts were encountered in 2022-AID-004 although it did intersect the Aida structural corridor. Mineralization in this area is hosted within a sheared and altered greywacke metasedimentary unit.

 

Initially planned for 1500 metres testing 800 metres of structural corridor, the program was cut short due to delays caused by winter weather conditions and expiry of seasonal permit agreements with local indigenous Sami groups to make way for seasonal migration of reindeer herds.

 

AIDA TARGET

 

The Aida target is a five kilometre long second order splay structure off the regional first order Gold Line first order structural corridor. Gold mineralization was first identified at the Aida target in November 2021 during the Phase 1 winter drilling program that followed up on anomalous regional top of bedrock drilling results. Phase 1 consisted of five holes for 760 metres and confirmed bedrock mineralization. The campaign included 22.5 m of 2.4 g/t Au in PAU21003, located under approximately 20 m of glacial till cover. Interpretation of magnetic geophysics data identified the Aida structural corridor and the 2022 Phase 2 diamond drilling program was designed to step out on PAU-21-003 to depth and along strike. Mineralization along the Aida structural corridor is hosted within highly sheared and hydrothermally altered mafic volcanic and greywacke metasedimentary units and appears to be controlled by rheological contrast between lithologies and flexures and intersections within the structural corridor.

 

Follow up work planned for 2023 on the Aida target will consist of top of bedrock drilling and diamond drilling. There remains >4 kilometres of identified and untested strike length of the Aida structural corridor which is 100% under >15 metres of glacial till cover. 2023 top of bedrock drilling will systematically test the remaining extent of the structural corridor and diamond drilling continuing to step out on known mineralization and test other identified anomalous zones.

Gold Line’s Paubacken Project consists of three main target zones, Aida, Belle and Harpsund.  Summer work programs continued systematic exploration of the target areas and leave the company well positioned with extensive targets in the project area.  “We are encouraged by the confirmation of mineralization and alteration observed along this section of the Aida structure, located completely under glacial till cover. The 2023 exploration program is designed to systematically test the remaining 4.3 kilometer strike length of the Aida corridor and unlock the potential of this significant structural corridor”,  commented CEO Adam Cegielski.

 

ABOUT THE PAUBÄCKEN PROJECT

 

The Paubäcken Project consists of 3 licenses covering 17,097 hectares that cover the central part of an emerging district in north central Sweden known as the “Gold Line Belt”. The Gold Line Belt is host to several significant gold deposits, including the nearby Barsele project (operated as a joint venture between Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. and Barsele Minerals Corp) as well as the Svartliden mine and Fäboliden development project (operated by Dragon Mining Ltd). The Svartliden mine was in production from 2005 to 2015 and a total of 3.18 million tonnes of material grading 4.1 g/t Au was processed during its operation (http://www.dragonmining.com/svartliden).

 

The Paubäcken Project is strategically positioned between Barsele and Fäboliden, and 5 kilometres northeast of the Svartliden mine, within the Gold Line Belt in northern Sweden. The Project contains 22 kilometres of the regionally significant “Gold Line” structure which can be traced for over 200 kilometres in regional geophysics data. All mineralization discovered to date shows a spatial relationship to this structural corridor, occurring mainly on second and third order splay structures. The Geology of the Paubacken project consists of a sequence of inverted basin sediments and mafic volcanic rocks intruded by small syn-kinematic granitic intrusions within a broad, anastomosing high strain structural corridor. The rocks are regionally metamorphosed to upper greenschist and amphibolite grade and gold mineralization is associated with intense sericite, carbonate, biotite, and calc-silicate alteration assemblages and sulphide minerals pyrite, arsenopyrite, and pyrrhotite. These lithological sequences are highly prospective for orogenic gold deposits.

 

QAQC AND CORE SAMPLING PROTOCOLS

 

All drill core samples were collected under the supervision of Gold Line employees. Drill core was transported from the drill rig to the on-site logging facility where it was logged and photographed, and standard and blank material inserted. Core was transported by Gold Line employees to MSALABS in Storuman, Sweden, where it was cut and prepared for analysis according to MSA methods SAW-100 and PRP-920. Samples are then sent to MSALABS in Langley, British Columba, Canada, for gold, multi-element, and whole rock analysis using MSA method FAS-114 for gold and IMS-230 for multi-element and WRA-360 for whole rock.

New Break Resources Ltd. (CSE: NBRK) (OTCQB: NBRKF) (FSE: O91) has received results from the last four holes of a ten-hole, 1,996 metre summer drilling program in the Zavitz gold zone at the Company's 100% owned Moray gold project. In total, New Break has completed 5,372 metres of drilling in 32 drillholes in 2026. Moray is located 49 km southeast of Timmins, Ontario and 32 km northwest of the Young-Davidson gold mine operated by Alamos Gold Inc. Select results from the final four of ten holes drilled in the summer drilling program are presented below in Table 1, while drillhole collar locations are detailed in Table 2 in Appendix A.

Figure 1 – Newly Reported Drillholes NBR-26-29, 30 Figure 2 – Newly Reported Drillholes NBR-26-30, 31, 32 Note: The bottom of NBR-26-30 deviated southeast and is represented in both sections. Figure 1: Section B-B1 incorporates drillholes NBR-26-06, 07, 08, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29 and part of 30. Gold mineralization extends southeast into the syenite as exhibited in NBR-26-29. NBR-26-30 is identified in both sections A-A1 and B-B1 as the drillhole was collared along section A-A1 but deviated southeast, intersecting gold mineralization in the mafic volcanics in section B-B1. Figure 2: A-A1 incorporates drillholes NBR-26-03, 04, 05, 23, 24, 30, 31 and 32. NBR-26-31 exhibits gold mineralization both within the syenite (at the contact) and within a "flow breccia" within the hematite altered mafic volcanic at the contact. NBR-26-32 is typified by blocky faulted ground with lamprophyre dykes and gold mineralization in the hematite altered mafic volcanics in a brecciated quartz vein with angular syenitic fragments. William Love, Chief Executive Officer of New Break commented, "Ongoing drilling this summer in the Zavitz gold zone continues to deliver significant gold values, with gold mineralization intercepted in every drillhole. As depicted in Figures 1 and 2, gold mineralization has been encountered predominantly within the mafic volcanics. Importantly, drillholes NR-26-29 and NR-26-32, the deepest drilled to date, demonstrate that gold mineralization extends into the syenite to the southeast at the contact with the mafic volcanics." He further noted, "The intrusive-mafic volcanic contact in the Zavitz gold zone has a distinctive magnetic high. This could be reflective of the higher proportion of iron in these mafic volcanics, which is associated with the higher gold values. This same magnetic and IP signature has been identified elsewhere in areas also believed to be along the intrusive-mafic volcanic contact. Drilling these never before tested targets with the goal of identifying gold mineralization similar to that encountered in the Zavitz zone represents the potential for significantly expanding the Moray gold discovery. There is also the belief that the Zavitz zone could represent the first of a series of stacked mineralized gold zones, which would point to the potential for a much larger gold system at depth. We plan to test this through deeper drilling directly into the Zavitz zone." About the Moray Gold Project The Moray property is located in the heart of the Ontario Abitibi greenstone belt, 49 km southeast of Timmins surrounded by a number of significant gold producing companies and existing mills (see Figure 3). The Young-Davidson gold mine operated by Alamos Gold Inc., with its 8,000 tonne per day mill is the closest and within a short trucking distance of approximately 45 km by road from Moray. The understanding of gold mineralization at Moray continues to evolve with each round of drilling. The occurrence of gold mineralization extending into the syenite to the southeast of the Zavitz zone and in the deepest drillholes is noteworthy given the presence of syenite-hosted mineralization at Young-Davidison. More recent examination of the drill core also suggests that the gold mineralization discovered to date may resemble an intrusion related style of deposit like Agnico Eagle's Upper Beaver gold deposit east of Kirkland Lake, as opposed to a structurally hosted gold system. Both Young-Davidson and Upper Beaver host multi-million ounce gold deposits. Figure 3 – Moray Location Map: Surrounding Gold Producers and Upper Beaver Gold Project Technical Content and Qualified Person The scientific and technical information contained in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Peter C. Hubacheck, P. Geo, consulting geologist to New Break, and an independent Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Hubacheck certifies that this news release fairly and accurately reflects the technical information and data presented. New Break conducts its exploration activities in accordance with CIM Best Practices Guidelines. QA/QC Procedures QA/QC procedures were executed to ensure all work is conducted in accordance with best practices. All drill core was sawn in half with one half of the core prepared for shipment and the other half retained for future verification. All core is under watch from the drill site to the core processing facility. Drill core is BQTK size and sample intervals range from 0.5 metres to 1.0 metres in length. Commercially prepared certified reference material ("CRM") standards and blanks were inserted with each shipment at a rate of 1 QAQC sample in every 12 core samples. Samples from New Break's 2026 Moray drilling program were analyzed at Activation Laboratories in Timmins, Ontario, which is ISO 17025 certified, by 30-gram fire assay with atomic absorption finish. Any sample assaying greater than 10.0 g/t Au was re-assayed with fire assay gravimetric analysis. Grade composite intervals over core lengths are calculated using a weighted average grade with a cut-off grade of 0.3 g/t Au. Up to 1.0 m of internal dilution (consecutive interval below cut-off grade) are included within specific geologic domains and alteration assemblages, except as otherwise noted. The composites are constrained geologically by metasomatic alteration processes sourcing from the Fiset syenite intrusion and contact mafic volcanic rocks. Elevated gold values are coincident with hematite, silica, sericite and pyrite mineralization within structurally prepared brecciated corridors flanking the intrusion. Intervals are not true widths and no top cutting has been applied to the higher gold values. About New Break Resources Ltd. New Break is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on its Moray gold project located 49 km southeast of Timmins, Ontario, in a well-established mining camp within proximity to existing infrastructure, and 32 km northwest of the Young-Davidson gold mine, operated by Alamos Gold Inc.
