Maple Gold Completes 6,050 Metre Drill Campaign at Douay

30.04.2019  |  Newsfile

Montreal, April 30, 2019 - Maple Gold Mines Ltd. (TSXV: MGM) (OTCQB: MGMLF) (FSE: M3G) ("Maple Gold" or the "Company") has completed its winter 2019 drilling program, with approximately 6,050 metres drilled in 15 holes, distributed across the Nika, Porphyry, 531 and Exploration Target areas (see Fig. 1). Several of the drill-holes were drilled to greater than planned depths as a result of visually significant sulfide mineralisation noted at the originally planned depths.

The primary objective of this work was to demonstrate continuity of higher grade areas both near surface and at moderate depths (at or beyond base of conceptual pit depths). All of the holes, including exploration drilling 1km south of the resource area, encountered visually significant sulfide mineralisation; all assays are pending. About half of the drill core has been sawed to-date; Maple Gold's in-house technicians will complete this work in the coming weeks to prepare samples for shipment to ALS Laboratory. Assay results are expected to be released as received over the course of the next 8-10 weeks.

Maple Gold's VP Exploration, Fred Speidel, commented: "Our drilling within the Nika and Porphyry Zones was designed to follow up on some of our best results from 2018, with the aim of extending zones and confirming continuity of higher-than-deposit-average-grade mineralisation within these respective areas. We are equally excited about pending results from the more limited drilling we completed at the 531 Zone and Exploration Target; the latter has very limited drill density, has not been drill tested for years and our updated geological model gives us reason to believe there is excellent potential for new discoveries there."

Additional Drill Campaign Details

2019 contract drilling costs were approximately 15% cheaper on a per-metre basis than in 2018, and drill program support costs were also reduced. The Company was pleased to surpass its targeted meterage with this 15-hole campaign and believes the results and new data will make meaningful contributions to the Company's evolving deposit-wide 3D models.

Nika Zone: 1,794 metres drilled (4 drill-holes)

These holes tested near surface and moderate depth extension of the new Nika Zone discovered in 2018, in particular DO-18-218 (50m averaging 1.77 g/t Au) and DO-18-217 (17m averaging 1.08 g/t Au, within a broader slightly lower-grade interval), and also deepened one historical hole that ended in 21.10 g/t Au on the western edge of the Nika Zone.

Porphyry Zone: 3,120 metres drilled (8 drill-holes)

These holes mainly tested the continuity of higher than average grades, particularly from 2018 drill intercepts such as in DO-18-216 (21m averaging 7.87 g/t Au uncut, including visible gold, and within a broader lower grade interval), DO-18-247 (21m averaging 3.49 g/t Au uncut, including visible gold) and DO-18-254 (27.5m averaging 1.24 g/t Au within a broader lower grade interval). The holes tested both contact style and syenite-hosted mineralisation.

531 Zone: 432 metres drilled (1 drill-hole)

This single hole tested the near-surface continuity of higher grade mineralisation in historical hole D-92-41 which gave 1.37 g/t Au over 31.5m in contact style mineralisation including a fault zone.

Exploration Target: 699 metres drilled (2 drill-holes)

Drilling at the Exploration Target tested expansion potential of locally high grade (2.08-17.45 g/t Au from historical drilling) contact style mineralisation in area with mixed syenite-basalt, located about 1km south of the southern limit of the Porphyry Zone.
