GoGold drills 30.2 m of 404 g/t AgEq at Los Ricos South

GOGOLD REPORTS ADDITIONAL STRONG DRILLING AT MAIN AREA OF LOS RICOS SOUTH

GoGold Resources Inc. has released additional drilling results from Los Ricos South, within the main area, including a high-grade intercept from hole LRGG-23-302. The hole intercepted 30.2 metres of 404 grams per tonne silver equivalent, including 9.7 m of 1,110 g/t AgEq, which also included a very-high-grade interval of 5,468 g/t AgEq over 0.8 m.

"We've drilled an additional 100 holes in the main zone at Los Ricos South since our initial July, 2020, mineral resource estimate, and we believe they are proving to be quite impactful on our upcoming updated resource and preliminary economic assessment," said Brad Langille, president and chief executive officer. "Our team is diligently working to complete the studies expected to release before end of summer."

The main area drilling campaign's purpose is to better define the very-high-grade portions of the current deposit that may be amenable to bulk underground mining. These holes are in addition to those drilled in 2019 and 2020, which formed part of the initial mineral resource estimate upon which the Los Ricos South preliminary economic assessment was based upon when it was released on Jan. 20, 2021. It is expected that these holes will be included in an updated resource to be released by the end of summer.

Los Ricos district exploration projects

The company's two exploration projects at its Los Ricos property are in Jalisco state, Mexico. The Los Ricos South project began in March, 2019, and an initial mineral resource was released on July 29, 2020, which disclosed a measured and indicated mineral resource of 63.7 million ounces AgEq grading 199 g/t AgEq contained in 10 million tonnes, and an inferred mineral resource of 19.9 million ounces AgEq grading 190 g/t AgEq contained in 3.3 million tonnes. An initial PEA on the project was released on Jan. 20, 2021, indicating a net present value at a 5-per-cent discount of $295-million (U.S.). The Eagle concession was acquired in October, 2022, and is adjacent to the main area, which contains the initial mineral resource.

The Los Ricos North project was launched in March, 2020, and an initial mineral resource was released on Dec. 7, 2021, which disclosed an indicated mineral resource of 87.8 million ounces AgEq grading 122 g/t AgEq contained in 22.3 million tonnes, and an inferred mineral resource of 73.2 million ounces AgEq grading 111 g/t AgEq contained in 20.5 million tonnes. An initial preliminary economic assessment on the project was released on May 17, 2023, indicating a net present value at a 5-per-cent discount of $413-million (U.S.).

Procedure, quality assurance/quality control and data verification

The diamond drill core (HQ size) is geologically logged, photographed and marked for sampling. When the sample lengths are determined, the full core is sawn with a diamond blade core saw, with one-half of the core being bagged and tagged for assay. The remaining half portion is returned to the core trays for storage and/or for metallurgical testwork.

The sealed and tagged sample bags are transported to the ALS Chemex facility in Guadalajara, Mexico. ALS Chemex crushes the samples and prepares 200 g to 300 g pulp samples with 90 per cent passing Tyler 150 mesh. The pulps are assayed for gold using a 30-gram charge by fire assay (code AA23), and overlimits greater than 10 grams per tonne are reassayed using a gravimetric finish (code ME-GRAV21). Silver and multielement analyses are completed using total digestion ICP (code ME-ICP61). Overlimits greater than 100 grams per tonne silver are reassayed using a gravimetric finish (ME-GRA21).

Quality assurance/quality control procedures monitor the chain of custody of the samples and include the systematic insertion and monitoring of appropriate reference materials (certified standards, blanks and duplicates) into the sample strings. The results of the assaying of the quality assurance/quality control material included in each batch are tracked to ensure the integrity of the assay data. All results stated in this news release have passed GoGold's quality assurance/quality control protocols.
