Golden Dawn Commences Drilling On the Phoenix Copper Gold Mine
Golden Dawn Minerals has initiated drilling at its Phoenix Property within the Greenwood Precious Metals project, located in southeastern BC. The drilling targets several anomalies detected from last year’s airborne VTEM geophysical survey, focusing on areas of high conductivity and historical skarn copper-gold deposits. The first drilling site is near the historic Phoenix mine, aiming to explore a large 1 km diameter conductivity anomaly. Historical drilling in this area has yielded promising mineralization results, including high grades of copper and gold.
- Drilling commenced at the Phoenix Property, targeting large anomalies from the 2022 VTEM survey.
- Initial drill site is located near historically proven mineralization zones.
- Previous operators reported significant mineralization results, indicating potential for copper and gold.
- Historical data referenced has not been verified by a Qualified Person.
- Forward-looking statements contain inherent risks and uncertainties.
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 20, 2022 / Golden Dawn Minerals Inc., (TSX-V:GOM)(FRANKFURT:3G8C)(OTC PINK:GDMRF), ("Golden Dawn" or the "Company"), announces that drilling has started at its Phoenix Property at the Greenwood Precious Metals project in southeastern BC.

Drilling is being done to test several large anomalies identified from last year's airborne VTEM geophysical survey. Areas of high conductivity were selected as priority targets. Magnetic anomalies extending from historically mined skarn copper-gold deposits were selected as secondary targets.
The first area to be tested is in the middle of a large, 1 km diameter conductivity anomaly identified in the 2022 VTEM survey, located near the historic Phoenix mine (A). The resistivity-depth section indicates this anomaly is below 150 meters depth. Similar conductive anomalies located to the east and west are also selected for drilling (B,C).

The first site is situated near the Gilt Edge showing, where historic drilling hit zones of mineralization such as 18 metres grading
Area 1: VTEM Geophysics Conductivity (TauSF) map. Areas of high conductivity in purple.
The second area of interest is in the northeast area of the Phoenix property, where potential for skarn-type mineralization is indicted by magnetic high anomalies that extend from areas of known mineralization. This area is named "Skarn Corridor" because it is a trend line of copper-gold deposits in skarn altered (calcium-silicate altered) Brooklyn limestone. Target sites have been selected to test a magnetic high that extends southward and is inferred to be a concealed intrusion that could be associated with skarn-related mineralization and/or precious metal vein mineralization.
Area 2: Total Magnetic Intensity map. Highly magnetic areas are red and purple.
