Insights

The latest drilling results from New Found Gold's Kingsway Project reveal exceptional high-grade gold intercepts, highlighted by 105 g/t Au over 2.10m and 10.4 g/t Au over 4.45m at the newly discovered Pistachio zone. The results demonstrate significant expansion potential along the Appleton Fault Zone (AFZ), with mineralization now confirmed 8.5km north of the main Keats zone.

The acquisition of Labrador Gold's Kingsway Project has strategically doubled the company's strike length along the AFZ to 13.5km. The discovery of multiple high-grade zones including Honeypot and Jackpot, with consistent mineralization starting from surface, suggests a robust gold system. The Honeypot zone shows particularly promising continuity over 170m strike length and 230m depth.

These results validate New Found's systematic exploration approach and indicate potential for significant resource growth. The combination of near-surface mineralization and deep drilling success (as noted in July 2024 release) substantially increases the project's scale potential.

VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ - New Found Gold Corp. ("New Found" or the "Company") (TSXV: NFG) (NYSE-A: NFGC) is pleased to announce the results from six diamond drill holes completed at its recently acquired Kingsway Project ("Kingsway") that adjoins the northern border of the Queensway Project and is on trend with numerous discoveries made further south along the Appleton Fault Zone ("AFZ"). In addition, the Company is pleased to announce the results from 29 diamond drill holes that were completed as part of a drill program designed to follow up on initial grid drilling results in the Everest area and expand on the Honeypot and Jackpot zones. New Found's 100%-owned Queensway Project comprises a 1,756 km2 area, accessible via the Trans-Canada Highway, 15km west of Gander, Newfoundland and Labrador.

Table 1: Drilling Highlights

Note that the host structures are interpreted to be moderately to steeply dipping and true widths are generally estimated to be 170% to 95% and 240% to 70%. 4True widths are unknown at this time. Infill veining in secondary structures with multiple orientations crosscutting the primary host structures are commonly observed in drill core which could result in additional uncertainty in true width. Composite intervals reported carry a minimum weighted average of 1 g/t Au diluted over a minimum core length of 2m with a maximum of 4m consecutive dilution when above 200m vertical depth and 2m consecutive dilution when below 200m vertical depth. Included high-grade intercepts are reported as any consecutive interval with grades greater than 10 g/t Au. Grades have not been capped in the averaging and intervals are reported as drill thickness.

  • 105 g/t Au over 2.10m and 10.4 g/t Au over 4.45m in NFGC-24-2153 was intersected in a follow-up program targeting two historic intervals of high-grade gold which included 5.17 g/t Au over 7.00m in K-23-271 and 4.68 g/t Au over 5.00m in K-23-278, a discovery that has become known as "Pistachio". These historic intervals at Pistachio are 40m and 65m down plunge of NFGC-24-2153 and are located 150m north of the Big Vein Zone, a previously made discovery by Labrador Gold. These initial results represent some of the most significant gold intercepts drilled to date at Kingsway (Figures 2-4).
  • Pistachio and Big Vein are situated 5.5km northeast of the Honeypot Zone immediately west of the AFZ (Figures 2 and 3), demonstrating that high-grade gold mineralization extends well north of the Queensway Project area (Figure 8).
  • The Pistachio Zone consists of a series of quartz veins containing visible gold hosted by a greenish siltstone unit that is spatially associated with a high-grade gold and stibnite-bearing fault zone. The historic drilling into this area was limited, and the zone remains open down plunge and to depth. Follow-up drilling is ongoing to expand on these initial high-grade intervals and improve understanding of the structural orientations.
  • Previous exploration drilling by Labrador Gold on Kingsway resulted in seven near-surface gold discoveries occurring over a 7.5km long segment of the AFZ and mostly on the west side. Ongoing exploration drilling is using a combined targeted and systematic approach, involving grid drilling within the prospective corridor on both sides of the AFZ. This strategy has been effective at Queensway, leading to multiple discoveries further south around the Keats Zone.

  • Continued follow-up drilling at Honeypot, a discovery announced on January 10, 2024, has resulted in a 75m expansion of the zone to the east with the intercept of 8.44 g/t Au over 4.10m in NFGC-24-2129. Located a further 75m down-dip, the highlight interval of 5.20 g/t Au over 6.15m in NFGC-24-2119 was also intersected demonstrating lateral continuity of the gold mineralization at depth (Figures 5 and 6). 
  • The Honeypot high-grade domain plunges steeply to the east and is currently 50m wide and 200m deep and exists within a broader gold mineralized domain that demonstrates good continuity over 170m in strike and 230m down dip. Honeypot is located 1.2km north of Lotto and remains open along strike and to depth.
  • Honeypot is just one of a series of veins found north of Keats that start at the bedrock surface and carries high-grade gold within steeply plunging continuous domains. Other examples of similar zones include Golden Joint, Lotto, Lotto North and Jackpot.
  • At Jackpot, 36.7 g/t Au over 2.00m in NFGC-24-2144 infilled a gap in the high-grade domain just 42m from surface. This interval confirms and further defines the high-grade near surface continuity of the Jackpot Zone (Figures 5 and 7).

Melissa Render, VP of Exploration of New Found, stated: "Today's results at Kingsway demonstrate the potential to delineate additional high-grade gold mineralization along this newly acquired segment of the AFZ. The acquisition of Labrador Gold's Kingsway Project provides us with 13.5km of sparsely tested strike on the AFZ and an extensive pipeline of near-surface targets with several existing discoveries that exhibit gold mineralization characteristics identical to those observed at Queensway. High-grade gold discoveries at Queensway are concentrated along the AFZ, and these initial high-grade results located 8.5km north of Keats points to the scale potential and strength of the gold mineralizing system. Acquiring the Kingsway Project has more than doubled our prospective strike length along the AFZ, while ongoing deep drilling has shown gold mineralization to persist to depths more than double those previously recognized (released July 11, 2024). These advancements expand the footprint of the gold system and provide encouragement that the prospectivity of the AFZ continues well north through the Kingsway Project."

Table 2: Summary of composite results reported in this press release for Everest, Honeypot, Jackpot, Big Vein, Pistachio, Golden Glove and Knobby


Note that the host structures are interpreted to be moderately to steeply dipping and true widths are generally estimated to be 170% to 95%, 240% to 70%, and 310% to 40% of reported intervals. 4True widths are unknown at this time. Infill veining in secondary structures with multiple orientations crosscutting the primary host structures are commonly observed in drill core which could result in additional uncertainty in true width. Composite intervals reported carry a minimum weighted average of 1 g/t Au diluted over a minimum core length of 2m with a maximum of 4m consecutive dilution when above 200m vertical depth and 2m consecutive dilution when below 200m vertical depth. Included high-grade intercepts are reported as any consecutive interval with grades greater than 10 g/t Au. Grades have not been capped in the averaging and intervals are reported as drill thickness.

Queensway 650,000m Drill Program Update

The Company is currently undertaking a 650,000m drill program at Queensway.

Sampling, Sub-sampling, and Laboratory

All drilling recovers HQ core. The drill core is split in half using a diamond saw or a hydraulic splitter for rare intersections with incompetent core.

A geologist examines the drill core and marks out the intervals to be sampled and the cutting line. Sample lengths are mostly 1.0 metre and adjusted to respect lithological and/or mineralogical contacts and isolate narrow (<1.0m) veins or other structures that may yield higher grades.

Technicians saw the core along the defined cutting line. One-half of the core is kept as a witness sample and the other half is submitted for analysis. Individual sample bags are sealed and placed into totes, which are then sealed and marked with the contents.

New Found has submitted samples for gold determination by fire assay to ALS Canada Ltd. ("ALS") and by photon assay to MSALABS ("MSA") since June 2022. As of February 2024, gold analysis at ALS has been performed by photon assay. ALS and MSA operate under a commercial contract with New Found.

Drill core samples are shipped to ALS for sample preparation in Sudbury, Ontario, Thunder Bay, Ontario, or Moncton, New Brunswick. ALS is an ISO-17025 accredited laboratory for the fire assay and photon assay methods.

Drill core samples are also submitted to MSA in Val-d'Or, Quebec. MSA operates numerous laboratories worldwide and maintains ISO-17025 accreditation for many metal determination methods. MSA is an ISO-17025 accredited laboratory for the photon assay method.

At ALS for fire assay, the entire sample is crushed to approximately 70% passing 2mm. A 3,000-g split is pulverized. "Routine" samples do not have visible gold (VG) identified and are not within a mineralized zone. Routine samples are assayed for gold by 30-g fire assay with an inductively-couple plasma spectrometry (ICP) finish. If the initial 30-g fire assay gold result is over 1 g/t, the remainder of the 3,000-g split is screened at 106 microns for screened metallics assay. For the screened metallics assay, the entire coarse fraction (sized greater than 106 microns) is fire-assayed, and two splits of the fine fraction (sized less than 106 microns) are fire-assayed. The three assays are combined on a weight-averaged basis. Samples that have VG identified or fall within a mineralized interval are automatically submitted for screened metallic assay for gold.

Samples submitted to ALS beginning in February 2024, received gold analysis by photon assay whereby the entire sample is crushed to approximately 70% passing 2 mm mesh. The sample is then riffle split and transferred into jars. For "routine" samples that do not have VG identified and are not within a mineralized zone, one (300-500g) jar is analyzed by photon assay. If the jar assays greater than 0.8 g/t, the remaining crushed material is weighed into multiple jars and submitted for photon assay.

For samples that have VG identified, the entire crushed sample is riffle split and weighed into multiple jars that are submitted for photon assay. The assays from all jars are combined on a weight-averaged basis.

At MSA, the entire sample is crushed to approximately 70% passing 2mm. For "routine" samples that do not have VG identified and are not within a mineralized zone, the samples are riffle split to fill one 450g jar for photon assay. If the jar assays greater than 0.8 g/t, the remaining crushed material is weighed into multiple jars and submitted for photon assay.

For samples that have VG identified, the entire crushed sample is weighed into multiple jars and submitted for photon assay. The assays from all jars are combined on a weight-averaged basis.

All samples prepared at ALS or MSA are also analyzed for a multi-element ICP package (ALS method code ME-ICP61) at ALS Vancouver.

Drill program design, Quality Assurance/Quality Control, and interpretation of results are performed by qualified persons employing a rigorous Quality Assurance/Quality Control program consistent with industry best practices. Standards and blanks account for a minimum of 10% of the samples in addition to the laboratory's internal quality assurance programs.

Quality Control data are evaluated on receipt from the laboratories for failures. Appropriate action is taken if assay results for standards and blanks fall outside allowed tolerances. All results stated have passed New Found's quality control protocols.

New Found's quality control program also includes submission of the second half of the core for approximately 2% of the drilled intervals. In addition, approximately 1% of sample pulps for mineralized samples are submitted for re-analysis to a second ISO-accredited laboratory for check assays.

The Company does not recognize any factors of drilling, sampling, or recovery that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the assay data disclosed.

The assay data disclosed in this press release have been verified by the Company's Qualified Person against the original assay certificates.

The Company notes that it has not completed any economic evaluations of its Queensway Project and that the Queensway Project does not have any resources or reserves.
