Graycliff Exploration Expands Gold Zone at Shakespeare Project, Ontario
Drill Hole J-49 Intersects 6 Metres of Gold Mineralization Grading 10.09 g/t
Toronto, Ontario--(October 6, 2022) - Graycliff Exploration Limited (CSE: GRAY) (OTCQB: GRYCF) (FSE: GE0) (the "Company" or "Graycliff") is pleased to release assay results from the next three holes of the Phase Four drilling program at the Shakespeare Gold Project located on the Canadian Shield near Sudbury, Ontario. Phase Four drilling focused on testing the boundaries of the mineralized zone, both along strike and at depth.
Drill Hole J-49 intersected 10.09 grams per tonne of gold ("g/t Au") over 6.0 metres ("m"), including 23.80 g/t Au over 1.0 m, 15.40 g/t Au over 1.0 m and 12.70 g/t Au over 1.0 m. Significant intervals for Holes J-49 to J-51 are detailed below.
Table 1 - Highlighted Gold Assay Results from Holes J-49 to J-51
| Drill Hole | From (m) | To (m) | Width (m)1 | Au (g/t) 2 |
| J-49 | 173.0 | 178.0 | 5.00 | 1.11 |
| 189.0 | 195.0 | 6.00 | 10.09 |
| including |
| 190.0 | 191.0 | 1.00 | 23.80 |
| and |
| 191.0 | 192.0 | 1.00 | 15.40 |
| and also |
| 192.0 | 193.0 | 1.00 | 12.70 |
| J-50 | 128.0 | 129.0 | 1.00 | 2.89 |
| J-51 | No Significant Intercepts |
1 Reported intervals are down-hole lengths and not true thicknesses. True width of the mineralization cannot be determined due to the early-stage nature of the current program.
2 Length-weighted average grades are calculated using un-capped gold assay data.
Bruce Durham, Graycliff's QP and Technical Advisor, stated: "The positive results in Hole 50 expand the zone of gold mineralization to the northeast. Hole 49 was drilled below Holes 47 and 48 and was another example of the excellent gold mineralization deeper in the system. Once again we have two anomalous intervals less than 15 metres apart, indicating that there are multiple areas of mineralization deeper in the system as well. We are also encouraged to see more visible gold at these greater depths."
Mr. Durham added, "The presence of free gold from near surface to current depths approaching 250 metres means that this mineralized zone has a lot of potential to continue along strike and to depth."
