Revival Gold Inc. (TSX-V: RVG) (OTCQX: RVLGF) is pleased to announce initial results from the Company’s 2022 drilling program and provide an update on exploration at the Beartrack-Arnett Gold Project located in Idaho, USA.
Highlights:
Note: Drilled widths; true widths are estimated to be 30% to 70% of drilled width.
“This year’s drilling to extend the potential for high-grade mineralization at Beartrack-Arnett has kicked-off with excellent results. We are seeing twice the gold grade and a wider intercept in hole 241D compared with hole 220D, which was located approximately 100 meters above it,” said Hugh Agro, Revival Gold, President & CEO. “The results suggest that grade and widths are improving at depth and confirm the open nature of mineralization to the south at Joss. Drilling continues with two rigs with further results expected later this month”, added Agro.

1 True width estimated to be approximately 30% to 70% of drilled width. Numbers may not add up due to rounding.
2 The interval 591.0 m to 591.7 m had 0% recovery and was included in the interval calculation as 0.7 m at 0 g/t gold.
QA/QC Program
Quality Assurance/Quality Control consists of the regular insertion of certified reference materials, duplicate samples, and blanks into the sample stream. Check samples are submitted to an umpire laboratory at the end of the drilling program. Sample results are analyzed immediately upon receipt and all discrepancies are investigated. Samples are submitted to the ALS Geochemistry sample preparation facility in Twin Falls, Idaho. Gold analyses are performed at the ALS Geochemistry laboratory in Reno, Nevada or Vancouver, British Columbia, and multi-element geochemical analyses are completed at the ALS Minerals laboratory in Vancouver, British Columbia. ALS Minerals is an ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited lab.
Gold assays are determined on samples consisting of half drill core by fire assay and AAS on a 30-gram nominal sample weight (Au-AA23) for Beartrack, and Fire Assay and AAS on a 50-gram nominal sample weight (Au-AA24) for Arnett. For shallow holes, targeting leachable mineralization, gold is also determined by cyanide leach with an AAS finish on a nominal 30-gram sample weight (Au-AA13). Multi element geochemical analyses are completed on selected drill holes using the ME-MS 61M method.
