Northway Resources Provides Exploration Update on the Healy Project, Alaska, USA

10.09.2020  |  Newsfile

Vancouver, September 10, 2020 - Northway Resources Corp. (TSXV: NTW) (the "Company") is pleased to report results of the geochemical and geophysical surveys carried out over the Healy Project this summer in Alaska, USA. The work included the collection of 1,820 soil samples, 136 line kilometers of ground EM (VLF) and magnetics as well as an 252 line kilometers airborne magnetic survey.

The results of the 50m x 50m spaced soil survey clearly define multiple robust gold in soil anomalies within three broader target areas (Thor, Bronk, Spike). The high-resolution EM and magnetic data, collected over the same survey areas, clearly delineate both low-angle thrust faults and later high angle shear zones. These structural features are clearly associated with gold anomalism in the soils and present excellent targets for future exploration. A follow-up induced polarization (IP) geophysical survey will be carried out over selected targets in early September to provide critical sub-surface data for drill targeting.

Zach Flood, President and CEO of Northway Resources states: "The results from the infill soil sampling program and geophysical surveys have produced very compelling exploration targets. The primary soil anomalies are extremely robust and clearly associated with both low angle and high angle structures previously mapped and now supported by the VLF data. The upcoming IP survey over Thor, Bronk, and Spike target areas will provide the final dataset needed for drill targeting."

About the Healy Project

The Healy Project was first identified and staked by Newmont Corporation ("Newmont") in 2012, following a two-year regional stream sediment sampling program in eastern Alaska. Follow-up prospecting, mapping and systematic soil sampling defined numerous, kilometer-scale gold, arsenic and antimony in soil anomalies. Healy is located along a major northeast trending fault system, as well as the prospective regional contact between metasedimentary rocks and cretaceous intrusive rocks, similar to the neighbouring Pogo and Tibbs areas. The property scale structural geology is defined by numerous low-angle thrust faults cut by steeply dipping northeast trending faults. Gold anomalism seems to be spatially associated with both steeply dipping faults and low angle thrust faults. No recorded exploration work had been done on the Healy property prior to Newmont in 2012 and 2013. The recent 2019 track mounted RC drill program (see press release dated October 21, 2019) completed by Northway was the first ever drill test of this newly identified gold system in the Goodpaster Mining District of Alaska, host of the world class Pogo gold deposit (10+ million ounces of gold endowment).

QA / QC and Sampling Protocols

At each sample site approximately 500 grams of soil was collected from B and C soil horizons placed in a bag and sealed. All samples were transported to ALS labs in Fairbanks for entry and sample prep.

Soil samples were prepared at ALS labs in Fairbanks and ALS labs in Tucson, where they were dried at 60°C, and sieved to -180 micron (Prep 41). The fine fraction was sent for analysis by fire assay (Au-ICP21) at ALS Labs in Vancouver; a 30g subsample was fused into a lead bead and gold values were determined by Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (Au-ICP21).
