Goldshore
Resources Drills 78.35m at 1.17 g/t Au and delineates higher grade
lenses within Moss lake Deposit
VANCOUVER, B.C.,
June 29, 2022: Goldshore
Resources Inc. (TSXV: GSHR / OTCQB: GSHRF / FWB: 8X00) ("Goldshore" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce assay results from its ongoing 100,000-meter drill program at the Moss Lake Project in Northwest Ontario, Canada. Drilling is aiming to better define and expand high-grade structural zones within the Moss Lake deposit to improve the overall grade and volume beyond that of the historic mineral resource.
Highlights:
-
Four shallow holes drilled during
the winter ice program have confirmed high-grade gold
mineralization within shears hosted by altered diorite
with best intercepts
of:
-
78.35m @ 1.17 g/t
Au from 170.35m depth in
MMD-22-020, including
- 22.65m @ 2.31 g/t Au from
217.0m,
including
- 5.65m @ 5.69 g/t Au from
234.0m
-
24.7m @ 1.28 g/t
Au from 105.3m depth in
MMD-22-017, including
- 2.75m @ 7.80 g/t Au from
106.9m
-
24.65m @ 1.05 g/t
Au from 81.2m depth in
MMD-22-016, including
- 2.0m @ 7.95 g/t Au from 103.0m
-
12.0m @ 1.41 g/t Au from
127.0m
President and CEO Brett Richards
stated: "We are excited to continue
to deliver consistent drilling results supporting our belief from
the beginning of our 100,000m drill program, that Moss Lake is much
larger in depth, width and along strike, to the historical mineral
resource. I am very encouraged about
the high grade sections we are seeing, as this will provide a lot
of optionality when we model the resource later in the year and
start to look at economic pit shells. We see several PEA
permutations, including a smaller, higher grade starting project
(Phase 1) followed by a larger scale operation formulated on the
global resource (Phase 2). Given the current economic
climate, a lower CapEx project (Phase 1) expanding to the larger
operation (Phase 2) may well be the best approach to developing
Moss Lake, while not losing sight of the larger Tier One
potential. We will make these
determinations later in the year, as we continue to evaluate the
results from our 100,000m program.

Intersections
calculated above a 0.3 g/t Au cut off with a top cut of 30 g/t Au
and a maximum internal waste interval of 10 metres. Shaded
intervals are intersections calculated above a 1.0 g/t Au cut off.
Intervals in bold are those with a grade thickness factor exceeding
20 gram x metres / tonne gold. True widths are approximate and
assume a subvertical body. The fact that cut and uncut assays are
the same, shows that all samples assayed less than the 30 g/t Au
top cut.

Four shallow drill holes were
completed over ice this past winter. They were drilled to help
define the resource in the upper levels of the deposit. This
includes localized high grade structural zones -
2.0m @ 7.95 g/t Au, 2.75m @ 7.80
g/t Au, and 5.65m @ 5.69 g/t Au - that are common in the Main and QES
Zones.
Pete Flindell, VP Exploration for
Goldshore, said "Our drilling program
continues to confirm that the large volume of low grade gold
mineralization is plumbed by anastomosing high grade shears. These
high grade zones are not reflected in the historic (2013) Mineral
Resource and will be a focus of our resource update intended to be
released at the end of 2022. Accurate modelling of the high grade
zones will significantly improve the economics of the Moss Project.
Drilling is also continuing to better define these zones within the
known extents of the deposit and in parallel zones that will add to
the overall tonnage."
Analytical
and QA/QC Procedures
All samples were sent to ALS
Geochemistry in Thunder Bay for preparation and analysis was
performed in the ALS Vancouver analytical facility. ALS is
accredited by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) for the
Accreditation of Mineral Analysis Testing Laboratories and CAN-P-4E
ISO/IEC 17025. Samples were analyzed for gold via fire assay with
an AA finish ("Au-AA23") and 48 pathfinder elements via ICP-MS
after four-acid digestion ("ME-MS61"). Samples that assayed over 10
ppm Au were re-run via fire assay with a gravimetric finish
("Au-GRA21").
In addition to ALS quality
assurance / quality control ("QA/QC") protocols, Goldshore has
implemented a quality control program for all samples collected
through the drilling program. The quality control program was designed by a
qualified and independent third party, with a focus on the quality
of analytical results for gold. Analytical results are received,
imported to our secure on-line database and evaluated to meet our
established guidelines to ensure that all sample batches pass
industry best practice for analytical quality control. Certified
reference materials are considered acceptable if values returned
are within three standard deviations of the certified value
reported by the manufacture of the material. In addition to the
certified reference material, certified blank material is included
in the sample stream to monitor contamination during sample
preparation. Blank material results are assessed based on the
returned gold result being less than ten times the quoted lower
detection limit of the analytical method. The results of the
on-going analytical quality control program are evaluated and
reported to Goldshore by Orix Geoscience Inc.
About
Goldshore
Goldshore is an emerging junior
gold development company, and owns the Moss Lake Gold Project located in
Ontario. Wesdome is currently a strategic shareholder of Goldshore with an
approximate 27% equity position in the Company. Well-financed and supported by an industry-leading management group,
board of directors and advisory
board, Goldshore is
positioned to advance the Moss Lake Gold Project through the next stages of exploration and
development.
About
the Moss Lake Gold Project
The Moss Lake Gold Project is
located approximately 100 km west of the city of Thunder Bay,
Ontario. It is accessed via Highway 11 which passes within 1 km of
the property boundary to the north. The Moss Lake Gold Project covers 14,292
hectares and consists of 282 unpatented and patented mining
claims.
Moss Lake hosts a
number of gold and base metal rich deposits including the Moss Lake
Deposit, the East Coldstream Deposit (Table 3), the historically
producing North Coldstream Mine (Table 4), and the Hamlin Zone, all
of which occur over a mineralized trend exceeding 20 km in length.
A historical preliminary economic assessment was completed on Moss
Lake in 2013 and published by Moss Lake Gold1.
A historical mineral resource estimate was completed on the East
Coldstream Deposit in 2011 by Foundation Resources
Inc2,3.
In addition to these zones, the Moss Lake Gold Project also hosts a
number of under-explored mineral occurrences which are reported to
exist both at surface and in historically drilled
holes. The Moss Lake Deposit is a
shear-hosted disseminated-style gold deposit which outcrops at
surface. It has been drilled over a 2.5 km length and to depths of
300 m with 376 holes completed between 1983 and 2017. The last
drilling program conducted in 2016 and 2017 by Wesdome, which
consisted of widely spaced holes along the strike extension of the
deposit was successful in expanding the mineralized footprint and
hydrothermal system 1.6 km to the northeast. Additionally, the
deposit remains largely open to depth. In 2017, Wesdome completed
an induced polarization survey which traced the potential
extensions of pyrite mineralization associated with the Moss Lake
Deposit over a total strike length of 8 km and spanning the entire
extent of the survey grids.
The East Coldstream Deposit is a
shear-hosted disseminated-style gold deposit which locally outcrops
at surface. It has been drilled over a 1.3 km length and to depths
of 200 m with 138 holes completed between 1988 and 2017. The
deposit remains largely open at depth and may have the potential
for expansion along strike. Historic drill hole highlights from the East
Coldstream Deposit include 4.86 g/t Au over 27.3 m in
C-10-15.
The historically producing North
Coldstream Mine is reported to have produced significant amounts of
copper, gold and silver4
from mineralization with potential
iron-oxide-copper-gold deposit style affinity. The exploration
potential immediately surrounding the historic mining area is not
currently well understood and historic data compilation is
required.
The Hamlin Zone is a significant
occurrence of copper and gold mineralization, and also of potential
iron-oxide-copper-gold deposit style affinity. Between 2008 and
2011, Glencore tested Hamlin with 24 drill holes which successfully
outlined a broad and intermittently mineralized zone over a strike
length of 900 m. Historic drill hole highlights from the Hamlin
Zone include 0.9 g/t Au and 0.35% Cu over 150.7 m in
HAM-11-75.
The Moss Lake, East Coldstream and
North Coldstream deposits sit on a mineral trend marked by a
regionally significant deformation zone locally referred to as the
Wawiag Fault Zone in the area of the Moss Lake Deposit. This
deformation zone occurs over a length of approximately 20 km on the
Moss Lake Gold Project and there is an area spanning approximately
7 km between the Moss Lake and East Coldstream deposits that is
significantly underexplored.

(3) The
reader is cautioned that the above referenced "historical mineral

is based on prior data and reports prepared by previous property
owners. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify
the historical estimates as current resources and Goldshore is not
treating the historical estimates as current

Significant data compilation,
re-drilling, re-sampling and data verification may be required by a
qualified person before the historical estimate on the Moss Lake
Gold Project can be classified as a current resource.
There can be no assurance that any of the
historical mineral resources, in whole or in part, will ever become
economically viable. In addition, mineral resources are not mineral
reserves and do not have demonstrated economic
viability.
Even if classified as a current
resource, there is no certainty as to whether further exploration
will result in any inferred mineral resources being upgraded to an
indicated or measured mineral resource category.
