GGL Commences Exploration on its McConnell Cu-Au Project, North-Central BC

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 26, 2022 / GGL Resources Corp. (TSX-V:GGL) ("GGL" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has commenced mechanized exploration activities on its 100% owned, road accessible McConnell copper-gold project in the prolific Golden Horseshoe region of north-central BC.

The 8,700-hectare McConnell property is located approximately 22 km southeast of the past-producing Kemess open pit copper-gold mine. The McConnell property is accessible by a road that branches off the all-season Omineca mine and hydro grid power road which services the Kemess Mine.

Previous exploration conducted by the Company has confirmed porphyry style mineralization within a potassic-phyllic altered monzonite intrusion. The supergene and hypogene, copper-gold-silver mineralization can be traced in scattered outcrops over 600 meters until it is lost beneath overburden. Rock samples collected by the Company in this "copper-gold-silver zone" included peak values of 20.1% Cu, 4.01 g/t Au and 67.1 g/t Ag. These samples were taken from an exposure that was blast-trenched in the 1970s and subsequently chip sampled to yield results of 10.97% Cu, 0.136 oz/T (4.66 g/t) Au and 2.12 oz/T (72.7 g/t) Ag over 12 ft (3.6 m), as described in an assessment report filed with the BC government.

The Company conducted 12-line km of induced polarization ("IP") and ground magnetic surveying over the copper-gold-silver zone in 2020. This IP survey complements a reconnaissance-style IP survey GGL conducted in 2008 which identified a buried chargeability anomaly near mineralized outcrops. The recent survey better defined the chargeability target, identifying two parallel, north north-west dipping anomalies that are believed to be structurally-controlled. One of these anomalies projects to surface near a well mineralized outcrop, rock samples from which returned assays up to 13.2% Cu and 1.61 g/t Au. The second anomaly projects to surface in an overburden covered area with no exposure.

The current exploration program will include excavator trenching designed to test across the full width of the chargeability anomaly associated with the partially exposed mineralized outcrop and to evaluate the second blind chargeability anomaly. Results from the trenching will aid in the planning for a drill campaign.

The McConnell project also contains a major shear-hosted gold zone which occurs at a higher elevation, 3 km east of the porphyry-style mineralization and IP anomalies. This zone can be traced for 12 km and was the main focus of the Company's historical exploration efforts, prior to its shift to diamond exploration in the 1990s. The McConnell gold target was acquired in 1981 and a majority of its trenching and drilling was completed in the 1980s. Historical highlights include a drill intercept that assayed 15.57 g/t Au over 1 m and a trench exposure that graded 8.16 g/t Au over 4.8 m.
