Gold Springs Resource A Significant High-Grade Extension of the North Jumbo Deposit

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 16, 2023 / Gold Springs Resource Corp. (the "Company" or "GRC") (TSX:GRC)(OTCQB:GRCAF) reports new assay results confirming a significant 425 meters higher-grade southward extension of the North Jumbo deposit at its large Gold Springs project located in USA, on the border of Nevada and Utah.

Highlights include:

• 0.84 g/t gold equivalent over 9.2 meters and
  0.89 g/t gold equivalent over 9.2 meters and
  0.81 g/t gold equivalent over 9.1 meters and
  2.45 g/t gold equivalent over 22.9 meters including
  3.98 g/t gold equivalent over 12.2 meters in hole J-22-020
• 1.36 g/t gold equivalent over 4.6 meters and
  1.03 g/t gold equivalent over 3.0 meters in hole J-22-019

Gold equivalent based on US$1,800/oz gold, US$25/oz silver and 50% for silver recovery.

Randall Moore, Executive Vice President of Exploration, stated:

"We are very excited by these last drilling results at North Jumbo, as they clearly confirm the new higher-grade structural block discovered in 2022, expanding our North Jumbo deposit 425 meters further south, where it remains open.

In our press release dated 19.09.2022, we reported two holes that discovered a new area of higher-grade gold mineralization extending 200 meters south of the North Jumbo Resource:

• 1.87 g/t AuEq over 29.0 meters including 3.73 g/t AuEq over 9.2 meters in hole J-22-005.
• 0.57 g/t AuEq over 41.2 meters and 1.88 g/t AuEq over 6.1 meters in hole J-22-004.

New hole J-22-020, which returned 2.45 g/t AuEq over 22.9 meters including 3.98 g/t AuEq over 12.2 meters, extends this higher-grade gold system by a further 225 meters for a total significant extension of our North Jumbo deposit of 425 meters to the south."

The North Jumbo Resource is the largest of our six existing M&I resources with 309,000 ounces of gold and 6,718,000 ounces of silver, according to our latest resource estimate based on drilling up to 2021 and without results from 2022-2023 in this high-grade southern extension (please see detailed table below and GRC's press release dated June 13, 2022 concerning our last mineral resource estimate).

North Jumbo

The North Jumbo Resource is located on the Utah side of the Gold Springs project at the northern end of the +5-kilometer-long Jumbo Trend which is defined by a very strong and well-developed CSAMT high resistivity anomaly.

The North Jumbo Resource based on drilling up to 2021 extends over a north-south strike length of 1,800 meters. The drill holes J-22-004, J-22-005 and J-22-020 extend the deposit in a higher-grade gold system 425 meters to the south. The North Jumbo deposit remains open to the north and to the southwest.

Future drilling will focus on continuing to expand the gold mineralization of the North Jumbo Resource to the south and to the north, where a new gold system the company considers an Intrusive-Related Gold System (IRGS) was discovered in 2021 with the hole J-21-015 which intersected 1.0 g/t gold equivalent over 163.1 meters.
