TDG Gold Corp Expands Greater Shasta Exploration Target Area to 5.5 Square Kilometres - Seite 3

Summary of Preliminary Results

A large +1 km long, linear east-northeast striking soil anomaly is present east of the Shasta deposit. At its eastern extremity it corresponds to a large area of exposed hydrothermal breccias and argillic alteration, extensive stockwork quartz, calcite veining and gossanous soils. The soil anomaly, defined by samples generally averaging > 100 ppb Au and ranging from 20-1,520 ppb Au, is approximately 100 m wide. On its west-southwest extremity, the feature merges with and intersects the linear soil and geophysical features associated with the Cody Lee and Fisher Zones making a broad 850 m to 1000 m diameter ovoid anomaly > 100 ppb Au. The north side of the anomalous soils abuts up against alluvial valley fill and glacial deposits and was not sampled, but data was interpreted from the Newmont work. There have been very few drillholes within this larger feature. The drilling that did occur intersected Au and silver ("Ag") mineralization (shown in Figures). This feature is larger than the original soil feature that defined the Shasta deposit and is a compelling target area given the geophysical and geochemical support (Figure 2).

The Cody Lee Target Zone corresponds with several linear ground and airborne geophysical features. The prospect lies along a steep magnetic gradient and within a magnetic low which also corresponds to a zone of low magnetic susceptibility in the host intermediate volcanic and epiclastic rocks. Unmineralized lithologies in the immediate vicinity contain significant amounts of disseminated magnetite whereas exposed outcrops in this zone do not; however, they do contain sulphides and extensive carbonate + potassium feldspar + quartz veining suggesting magnetite destruction and sulphidation during hydrothermal alteration. These magnetic features and the prospect are coincident with a linear conductive feature interpreted from the Fraser Filtered VLF surveys and suggest the presence of a +3.5 km long fault system extending to the north-northwest and south-southeast from the Shasta Deposit where only limited drilling has been completed by previous operators (Figure 3; and TDG News Release October 17, 2022).
