Goldshore Resources Inc. (TSXV: GSHR) (OTCQB: GSHRF) (FSE: 8X00) ('Goldshore' or the 'Company'), is pleased to announce assay results from its 100,000-meter drill program at the Moss Gold Project in Northwest Ontario, Canada (the 'Moss Gold Project' or 'Moss Gold Deposit').
Drill results prove that the Southwest Zone is a continuation of the Main Zone and not a fault offset as previously interpreted. Mapping and geophysical data, together with historical scout drilling, show that mineralization continues intermittently for another 3 kilometers to the southwest and that many of the better targets are yet to be drilled.
With drilling recently completed, the Company is preparing an updated mineral resource expected in May ('May 2023 MRE'). The May 2023 MRE will use data from an additional 72 holes compared to the November 2022 mineral resource estimate ('November 2022 MRE'). Mineralization in the resource area remains open in multiple directions.
President and CEO Brett Richards stated: 'These results continue to support our thesis that the size and scale of the Moss Gold Project will be large enough to support a material and meaningful update to the mineral resource estimate, which is expected in early May 2023.
cobalt, and polymetallic prospects. We have drilled less than 10% of the identified targets on our land package and are currently building a plan to drill test the better targets. It will be an exciting period when we are ready to evaluate the additional resource potential of the larger inventory of targets within our land package.'These additional results highlighting the mineralization in the south-west zone augment the press release of April 20, 2023, and continue to expand the zone well outside the historical resource, still open in several directions and at depth. In addition to the May 2023 MRE, we still have 30 quality drill targets to be tested. These include gold, copper
'We have focused on the currently defined portion of the Moss Gold Deposit as a meaningful Phase One Project that Goldshore itself can build. The Moss Gold Deposit remains open at depth and through several yet-to-be drilled parallel structures and it is part of an overall 8-kilometer strike length of gold mineralization in drill holes. This strongly suggests that the Phase One Project is part of a much larger total project.'
The Southwest Zone was previously considered to be a small fault-offset extension of the Main Zone. As a result, it was poorly drilled, which led to the definition of only a small open pit-constrained Mineral Resource.
Oriented core measurements from earlier drilling showed a significant change in strike of the Southwest Zone, revealing it to be 035 rather than the assumed 065 strike based on the known orientation of the Main and QES Zones. The nine holes reported herein were drilled perpendicular to the new strike to infill a poorly drilled volume in the center of the Southwest Zone at a closer spacing (30 meters) along each section to confirm the continuity of high-grade shears. This should enable greater confidence in the resource and an expansion of the open pit constraints at depth.
chalcopyrite within a strongly albite-hematite and silica-sericite-pyrite and carbonate altered diorite intrusion complex. The shears anastomose along the same orientation of the zone and trend beyond the area explored by historical drilling. Holes MMD-22-111, MMD-23-116, -118A, and -119 intersected several high-grade shears (e.g., 0.65m @ 36.8 g/t Au in MMD-23-116) hosting quartz-carbonate veinlets with up to 3-5% pyrite
Grant of Stock Options and RSUs
In addition, the Company announces that it has granted a total of 4,100,000 stock options ('Options') to purchase common shares of the Company to certain directors, officers, employees and consultants.
