VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ - Nevada King Gold Corp. (TSXV: NKG) (OTC: NKGFF) ("Nevada King" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results for two vertical diamond drill holes and eight reverse circulation ("RC") holes completed in the northern portion of the West Atlanta Graben Zone ("WAGZ") at its Atlanta Gold Mine Project located 264km northeast of Las Vegas, Nevada, in the prolific Battle Mountain Trend. Today's holes are plotted on plan and section in Figures 1-3 below.

Table 1. Highlight holes released today. AT23WS-44C and AT23WS-52 are interpreted to have intersected a sub vertical feeder zone cutting through a flat-lying horizon of mineralization that generally dips westward while AT23WS-46 simply penetrated the mineralized sub-horizontal unconformity. True mineralized thickness in vertical holes is estimated between 85% and 95% of reported drill intercept length thickness. *Denotes holes that bottomed in mineralization. +Denotes core hole.

- Vertical core hole AT23WS-44C intercepted 3.95 g/t Au over 106.7m including 9.39 g/t Au over 38.4m and was drilled approximately 10 metres west of vertical RC hole AT23WS-44 which intercepted 11.64 g/t Au over 108.3m (released October 2, 2023). AT23WS-44C was designed to provide metallurgical material for the Phase II metallurgy test program.
- Overall mineralized thickness and the distribution of high-grade horizons in AT23WS-44C and AT23WS-44 demonstrate good lateral correlation, with gold being preferentially deposited within a 70m to 100m thick horizon largely consisting of a rhyolitic intrusion and surrounding silica breccia developed in sub-horizontal, receptive carbonate-rich beds. The higher overall grade seen in previously released AT23WS-44 relative to today's WS-44C is most likely due its closer proximity to the feeder structure (North Fault).
- As shown in Figure 3, gold mineralization is contiguous across a 100m wide zone from AT23WS-21 on the west to AT23WS-49 on the east and is generally centred on the unconformity separating the brecciated and silicified Paleozoic carbonate basement from overlying Tertiary intrusions and volcanics. As seen throughout the resource zone, gold grade distribution is strongly influenced by high-angle feeder structures (like the North Fault) that cut the unconformity, with higher grades occurring proximal to these structures, and grades decreasing laterally away from them. This is better illustrated in Figure 4 where the highest grades are tightly confined to the North Fault and adjacent West Atlanta Fault #1 and decrease laterally to the west and east.
- Hole AT23WS-52 intersected 2.29 g/t Au over 123.5m including 5.24 g/t Au over 35.1m on the north side of the North Fault, where intercept grades tend to be lower compared to intercepts south of the North Fault in this part of the WAGZ.
Cal Herron, Exploration Manager of Nevada King, stated, "Holes reported today complete sections 22-15N(3) and 22-14N(2) for the Phase II drilling program. Drilling in the northern portion of the WAGZ has resulted in a large mineralized area measuring 250m E-W by 170m N-S hosting thick packages of consistent oxide mineralization. Grades are strongest within the graben bounded by the West Atlanta Fault on the east side and remain open to the west awaiting further deep drilling in Phase III following the discovery of AT24WS-83 and AT24WS-84 (see October 21, 2024 release). All mineralization intersected in this area is heavily oxidized and many of the holes drilled often have intervals exceeding 10g/t. Nevada King completed 39 holes from Phase I and Phase II drilling along both sections 14 and 15, thereby increasing the drilling by 84% from historical drill data (six drill holes) and developing a strong footprint of consistent, thick mineralization. The close connection we have consistently observed between high-grade mineralization and rhyolitic intrusions, as shown in Figure 4, exemplifies one such model that will soon be pursued in previously untested target areas located 0.5km to 4km outside of the current resource zone -- in all directions."

QA/QC Protocols
All RC samples from the Atlanta Project are taken at 1.5m intervals, split at the drill site and placed in cloth and plastic bags utilizing a nominal 2kg sample weight. Certified Reference Material (CRM) standards, blanks, and blind duplicates are inserted into the sample stream on-site on a one-in-twenty sample basis, meaning all three control inserts are included in each 20-sample group. Samples are shipped by a local contractor in large sample shipping crates directly to American Assay Lab in Reno, Nevada, with full custody being maintained at all times. At American Assay Lab, samples were weighed then crushed to 75% passing 2mm and pulverized to 85% passing 75 microns in order to produce a 300g pulverized split. Prepared samples are initially run using a four acid + boric acid digestion process and conventional multi-element ICP-OES analysis. Gold assays are initially run using 30-gram samples by lead fire assay with an OES finish to a 0.003 ppm detection limit, with samples greater than 10 ppm finished gravimetrically. Silver samples that run greater than 100ppm are also finished gravimetrically. Every sample is also run though cyanide leach for gold with an ICP-OES finish. The QA/QC procedure involves regular submission of Certified Analytical Standards and property-specific duplicates.

Forward-looking statements in this news release relate to, among other things, the Company's exploration plans and the Company's ability to potentially expand mineral resources and the impact thereon. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Forward-looking statements reflect the beliefs, opinions and projections on the date the statements are made and are based upon a number of assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by Nevada King, are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties and contingencies.
