New Carolin Gold Corp Drills 93 Meter Intersection... Discovers New Mineralized Zone
2018-09-04 06:05 PT - News Release
(via TheNewswire)
Vancouver, BC / TheNewswire / September 4, 2018 - New Carolin Gold Corp. (the "Company" or "New Carolin") (TSXV: LAD | OTCBB: LADFF ): New Carolin is pleased to announce assay results from the latest phase of underground drilling at the Company's 100% owned Ladner Gold Project, which includes the Carolin Gold Mine, just 18 kms northeast of Hope, British Columbia.
Building upon historical data gathered from previous production, drilling and sampling, the recently completed phase of 13 diamond drill holes totalling 1,489 metres was designed to expand the known resource within the bulk tonnage sedimentary gold emplacement model, specifically to confirm select high grade historic drill intercepts cutting in-situ Main Zone mineralization directly in front and down plunge of existing Carolin Mine open stopes between the 800 meter and 875 meter levels; cut the northern extent of the East Zone mineralization; and provide confirmation and select step-out drilling below the Lower Zone mineralization (Figure 1).

The drilling results appear to confirm the historical data and the continuation of the Company's exploration strategy (Table 1).
However, of particular note is drill hole 18NC10 which, in addition to confirming expected geology and mineralization in the Main Zone, pierced an additional lower zone offset 200 metres to the southwest, referred to as the Hozameen Zone. Drill hole 18NC10 intersected 93 meters averaging 1.39 grams-per-tonne gold (g/t Au); including 7 meters of 5.75 g/t Au (Table 1) . This hole was drilled diagonally across two widely spaced historic holes, 11050-60 and 11000-71 that returned significant broad gold mineralized intercepts that until now had never been followed up (Table 2).

*True widths are estimated to be 70-90% of the drilled intercept. Due to the limited nature of previous drilling, the true width of drilled intercepts for drill holes 18NC09, 18NC10, and 18NC13 are not known
The current and historic drilling confirms the presence of a significant new zone of gold mineralization, offset to the southwest and distinct from Carolin Mine Main Zone. Within the context of the Company's Main Zone geological model, which interprets mineralization as hosted within a shallowly northwest plunging anticlinal hinge zone, the discovery of a broad zone of gold mineralization within drill hole 18NC10 is significant in that it may represent a parallel fold structure, or potential fault offset of the Carolin Mine Main Zone. The current Hozameen Zone gold intercept represents a near-mine "blind" discovery that warrants additional follow-up diamond drilling to establish its geometry, vertical, and lateral continuity.

| Hole | From (m) | To (m) | Interval (m) | Au (g/t) |

Work on the Lander Gold Project is supervised by Kristopher J. Raffle, P.Geo. (BC) Principal and Consultant of APEX Geoscience Ltd. of Edmonton, AB, a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Raffle has reviewed and approved the scientific or technical content of this news release as it relates to the Carolin Mine and Ladner Gold Project. The 2018 core holes were drilled using NQ tooling to produce 4.76 cm diameter dill core. Core samples were half sawn and submitted to ALS Minerals (North Vancouver) or Activation Laboratories Ltd (Kamloops); both ISO 17025 and 9001:2015/2008 (ALS/Actlabs) accredited geo-analytical laboratories that are independent of the Company. Drill core samples were subject to crushing at a minimum of 70% passing 2 mm, followed by pulverizing of a 250 gram split to 85% passing 75 microns (ALS) or 95% passing 105 microns (Actlabs). Gold determination was via standard 30 gram fire-assay (FA) analysis. A quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) program is in place, with the insertion of standard, blank and duplicate samples into the sample stream to confirm the accuracy of the reported results.
