The rig is to be transported over the weekend, with drilling expect to start on or about Monday, September 19, 2022.

Drilling To Test Multiple Gold Veins

The slam exploration intends to drill up to 1,000 metres in approximately 10 holes to test 2 gold zones discovered by SLAM in 2020-2021. This includes up to 6 holes on Zone 18. These holes are planned to test for extensions beneath core intervals grading up to 162.5 g/t gold over 0.2 m and 56.50 g/t gold over 0.51 m associated with visible gold in holes reported by the Company on December 03, 2020, and January 20, 2021. Previously, the Company had announced multiple sites of visible gold with assays up to 3,955 g/t gold over 0.10 m thick from trench samples reported on December 03, 2020.

SLAM exploration intends to drill 4 holes on Zone 22, where the Company reported drilled core intervals grading up to 5.40 g/t gold over 0.2 m on December 03, 2020. Each of the Zone 22 holes will test multiple quartz veins that are part of a series of gold-bearing veins trending north-easterly over a strike length of 1,400 m. The Zone 22 veins are associated with a soil anomaly ranging from 5 to 206 ppb (0.206 g/t) gold that stretches 2,800 metres eastward from vein No. 18.

QA-QC Procedures:

Drill core was picked up at the core at the drill site and delivered to a secure facility for logging by SLAM’s professional team. Selected core was marked for sampling and for sawing. The company inserted blanks and standards into the sample series. Samples were sent either to AGAT Laboratories (“AGAT”) or to ALS Geochemistry(“ALS”) for gold analysis under analytical code 202-051 for AGAT and code Au-AA23 for ALS. Sample above 10 g/t gold were re-analyzed using gravimetric methods.

For soil geochemistry, sample of the B1 soil horizon were collected at a spacing of 25 m along lines 100 m or 200 m apart using a Garmin GPS for control. Portage samples were submitted to AGAT for multi-element analysis by Aqua Regia Digest / ICP-OES Finish and for gold analysis using method 202-051 Au Fire Assay – AA (30g). The Jake lee soil samples were submitted to ALS and analysed for gold under code
Au-AA23-30g.
