White Gold announces fully funded 2023 exploration program

White Gold announced plans for its fully funded 2023 exploration program on its district scale 350,000 hectare land package, representing over 40% of the emerging White Gold District in Yukon, Canada. The 2023 program is designed to further evaluate targets on the Betty and JP Ross properties and to perform maiden diamond drilling on the Cali target located on the Nolan property. Other regional exploration work includes maiden rotary air blast drilling on the Wolf and Toonie properties and a significant early-stage exploration program to identify and advance other targets on the Company’s extensive and under explored land package in which the Company has made several high grade gold discoveries in addition to significantly increasing resources at the Company’s flagship White Gold Project which comprises 16 million tonnes averaging 2.23 g/t Au for 1,152,900 ounces of gold in the Indicated Resource category and 19 million tonnes averaging 1.54 g/t Au for 942,400 ounces of gold in the Inferred Resource category and remains open for expansion. Highlights: Exploration diamond drilling totalling 3,200m planned on three targets – Betty Ford, Vertigo and Cali. Betty Ford – Testing for porphyry at depth beneath the mineralized breccia, plus potential feeder contact/structure identified through VLF-EM ground geophysics. Recent drilling at Betty Ford intersected 3.46 g/t Au over 50.0m in hole BETFD21D003 and 8.94 g/t gold over 18.29m in hole BETFD22RC004. Vertigo – First drilling since 2019 with program designed to test a new structural interpretation which includes multiple mineralized vein sets not previously drill tested. 2018 and 2019 drilling highlights at the Vertigo include 23.44 g/t Au over 24.38 m, 12.25 g/t Au over 15.24 m, 9.46 g/t Au over 22.86 m, and 11.64 g/t Au over 5.34 m. Cali – Maiden diamond drilling with widely spaced holes testing large gold and multi-element soil anomaly located along the regional Sixtymile-Pika Fault. Maiden RAB drill programs totalling 800 m to test gold targets on the Wolf and Toonie properties. Induced Polarization – Resistivity ground geophysical surveys over the large early-stage Bridget and Hayes Copper-Molybdenum porphyry targets located on the Pedlar and Hayes properties in close proximity to the large Casino porphyry deposit. Regional exploration on other properties includes geological mapping and prosecting, soil geochemistry surveys, and ground magnetics and VLF-EM surveys to generate new targets for future drill testing. Additional detail on the various components of the program to be released in due course. A corporate update webinar has been arranged for management to present additional detail on the Company’s fully funded 2023 exploration program. Event and registration details to be provided.
