On September 10, 2024, Snowline Gold Corp. has released additional analytical results from its 2024 Valley deposit drilling campaign on the Rogue project in Canada's Yukon Territory alongside updates on its regional exploration campaign. Hole V-24-078 returned some of the highest sustained grades seen at the deposit to date. Additional holes from Valley carry long intervals from surface in the southeastern part of the Valley deposit. Outside of Valley, Snowline's regional exploration team has discovered two promising new grassroots gold targets, Charlotte and Galatea, on the Rogue and Einarson projects, respectively. Drilling is continuing at Valley and on the Jupiter target, Einarson project, with assays pending for an additional 22,500 metres drilled to date.
"The breadth, consistency and grade of near-surface gold mineralization at Valley continue to impress us," said Scott Berdahl, chief executive officer and director of Snowline. "V-24-078 has set another very high bar, carrying an average grade of over four grams per tonne gold over 244.9 metres from surface, with a sustained run of 101.0 m averaging 6.0 g/t Au, while holes from the southeast and northwest parts of the deposit show good near-surface continuity and grades. "In addition, our regional exploration team continues to turn up exciting new prospects on our underexplored, greater-than-3,600-square-kilometre tenure, including a new reduced-intrusion related gold system. That we are still finding potentially significant new mineralized systems on surface in our fourth exploration season in this area is a testament to the scale and the fertility of the district." On August 07, 2024, Snowline Gold Corp. has released analytical results from additional early-season drill holes on its 2024 exploration campaign and provided an exploration update from its continuing five-drill program in Yukon, Canada. Highlight intervals from the Valley deposit are summarized in the attached table. Holes V-24-075 and V-24-073 are the third-highest-ranking and fourth-highest-ranking holes in terms of contained gold from the Valley deposit to date, with V-24-075 exceeding projections based on the initial mineral resource estimate (MRE) by 9 per cent within the resource-limiting pit shell and by 140 per cent outside of it (18 per cent over all). At the Rogue project's Aurelius target, widespread alteration with oxide and sulphide mineralization is present in volcanic and sedimentary rocks, with granodiorite dikes intersected in two holes in the first-ever drill testing of the target. Drilling is continuing at Valley and on other targets, with assays pending for an additional 15,600 metres drilled to date. "We had extremely high expectations for these latest holes at Valley, and they did not disappoint," said Scott Berdahl, chief executive officer and director of Snowline. "Based on the block model from our initial mineral resource estimate, we would expect a run of 448 metres averaging 2.1 grams per tonne gold for hole V-24-075. We meaningfully exceeded this target in both length and grade, with the hole averaging 2.38 g/t Au over the top 471.6 m from bedrock surface and with an internal interval of 6.48 g/t Au over 22.0 m from 160.0 m downhole, exceeding the grade of anything we had predicted. The results exceed the block model most dramatically outside of the current resource estimate boundary. We expect that this demonstration of robust continuity and of viability in our modelling will assist with derisking and upgrading mineralization, and it could potentially help to expand our resource-limiting pit shell, pending additional results from our ongoing drilling at Valley." On July 31, 2024, Snowline Gold Corp. has filed an updated technical report for its Rogue project, located in the eastern Selwyn basin in Yukon, Canada. The updated technical report for Rogue, entitled "Rogue Gold Project: NI 43-101 Technical Report and Mineral Resource Estimate," with an effective date of May 15, 2024, is prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, and supports initial mineral resource estimate disclosures on the company's Valley deposit made in its June 17, 2024, news release. The report can be found under the company's profile on SEDAR+ and on the company's website. Exploration update - To date, the company has drilled over 16,000 metres as part of its more-than-25,000-metre planned drill program for 2024, with five drill rigs active and drilling continuing. Three drills are active on the Valley target, with roughly 12,500 metres drilled at Valley this season, while a fourth drill has completed roughly 2,000 metres of a planned 4,000-metre program at the Jupiter target on the Einarson project. The fifth drill has completed a three-hole, 1,067-metre phase II program at the Rogue project's Cujo target and is now drilling at the Aurelius target, where it has completed over 400 metres in one completed hole and is currently drilling a second hole of a planned 1,000-metre phase I program. On July 24, 2024, Snowline Gold Corp. has released the analytical results from the first two drill holes of its 2024 exploration campaign and provided an exploration update from its continuing five-drill program in Canada's Yukon. Hole V-24-071, collared in the high-grade, near-surface section of the Valley deposit, averages 1.77 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) over 449.7 metres (m) from surface, including 2.89 g/t Au over 169.2 m. This result exceeds that predicted by the company's initial mineral resource estimate (MRE) for Valley by 36 per cent over all. Hole V-24-072 averages 2.66 g/t Au over 295.3 m, including 4.67 g/t Au over 100.8 m from surface, in line with expectation but with slightly (1 per cent) more gold than predicted in the top half of the hole. At the Jupiter target on the nearby Einarson project, trace visible gold has been encountered in a 174 m stepout from previous holes, along with widespread mineralization. Drilling is continuing at Valley and on other targets, with assays pending for an additional 13,000 m drilled to date. "We are encouraged by such a strong start to our 2024 exploration campaign and excited to have regional drilling under way," said Scott Berdahl, chief executive officer and director of Snowline. "Our first two holes of the season at our Rogue project's Valley deposit underscore the strength and consistency of the deposit, particularly when it comes to high-grade, near-surface gold mineralization. We eagerly await assay results from the many additional holes drilled within and adjacent to the current deposit, and we look forward to seeing results from additional Valley-style gold targets that are set to be drilled soon. "I would also like to congratulate Snowline's team on their exploration success at on our Einarson project's Jupiter target, an orogenic gold system, where careful structural mapping and interpretation informed bold stepout holes that meaningfully expand the mineralized footprint of the target, which remains open in all directions. We are excited by these initial observations and we look forward to the analytical results from current holes along with the rest of the ongoing phase II drill program at Jupiter." On June 18, 2024, The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday edition that Scotia Capital analyst Eric Winmill rates Snowline Gold "sector outperform" in new coverage. The Globe's David Leeder writes in the Eye On Equities column that Mr. Winmill set a share target of $9. Mr. Winmill says in a note: "The company's flagship project is Rogue, an exploration stage gold project in the Yukon. In our view, the Valley discovery at Rogue represents one of the most exciting gold discoveries in recent years, with long intervals of near-surface gold mineralization encountered over a large target area, multiple areas remaining open and many nearby targets requiring follow-up exploration work. Not only does Valley exhibit strong gold grades across long intervals, but it also boasts a notable vein density, with many areas returning 10 plus veins per metre, meaning fewer tonnes needed to build gold ounces. Management has described this feature as 'monotonously exciting,' referring to the regularity and consistency of veins encountered in drilling to date. ... We estimate 6.4 million ounces Au could be contained at Valley, supporting future production potential of 300 koz Au annually over a 20 plus year horizon [and] subject to resource definition." On June 17, 2024, Snowline Gold Corp. has released an initial mineral resource estimate prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 (Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects) standards for the Valley deposit, the first discovery on its 100-per-cent-owned 1,110-square-kilometre Rogue project in Canada's Yukon territory. "In just two full exploration seasons, Snowline has advanced its Valley target from greenfield discovery holes to a robust multimillion-ounce gold deposit with continued exploration upside," said Scott Berdahl, chief executive officer and director of Snowline. "The rapid advancement is a testament both to the quality of the discovery -- with exceptional continuity of strong, non-refractory gold mineralization beginning at surface -- and to the quality of the ongoing work by our talented and hard-working field team. We believe that Valley has excellent potential for continued growth, as evidenced by broad intervals of one and two grams per tonne gold mineralization returned in drilling on multiple edges of the system. We are actively building on this milestone for Valley with our largest drill campaign to date, currently under way, while testing multiple prospective greenfield targets in a region we believe has the potential to become a prolific minerals district." On June 13, 2024, The TSX Venture Exchange has accepted for filing documentation pertaining to an asset purchase and sale agreement dated April 22, 2024, among Snowline Gold Corp., a subsidiary of the company, and an arm's-length party (the seller), whereby the company acquired a 100-per-cent interest in certain mineral claims and a 30-per-cent interest in other mineral claims from the seller, which is the legal and beneficial owner of these claims, located in Yukon, Canada. Under the terms of the agreement, the company acquired the property by: (i) making $1.2-million in cash payments on closing; and (ii) issuing 1,012,000 common shares of the company to the seller on closing. Additionally, the seller may receive up to seven $1-million cash bonuses if resource estimates exceeding one million ounces of gold on any of seven claim groupings. On June 11, 2024, Snowline Gold Corp. has appointed Gil Lawson to the board of directors as an independent director. Snowline Gold Board Chair Craig Hart stated that "Mr. Lawson's appointment will bring valuable experience, skill sets and new perspectives to the Board as well as adding technical strength in project development which is increasingly relevant to Snowline's growth." Mr. Lawson indicated "I am excited to join the Snowline Gold team as an Independent Director and to work towards advancing this exciting project in Canada's newest gold district. I look forward to adding to the technical excellence of this fast-growing and dynamic team, and ensuring that Snowline's guiding principles of environmental respect, building community, going big and doing things right, shape the future". On May 16, 2024, Snowline Gold Corp. has mobilized drilling personnel and geological staff to its Rogue project in Yukon, Canada, to kick off its 2024 exploration and drilling program. The 25,000+ metre (m) campaign will see two additional diamond drill rigs mobilized to complement the three rigs currently onsite at the Rogue Project's Valley target, with a phased start-up over the coming days and weeks. Roughly 15,000+ m are allocated for the expansion and advancement of Valley. An additional 10,000+ m are assigned to first pass or follow-up drilling on multiple additional targets, including the Rogue Project's newly identified Aurelius target and the Einarson Project's Jupiter target. "We are excited to be back in the field for our earliest start and our largest exploration campaign to date," said Thomas Branson, Snowline's Vice President of Exploration. "At Valley, our drilling will push to expand the extent of known mineralization and to gain a more quantitative understanding of the discovery, both in terms of its overall gold endowment and in terms of assessing potential economics of the relatively high grade, near surface gold system. The construction of a second 50-person camp will increase efficiencies at Valley along with our capacity to support regional exploration with additional drills. Following our substantial progress in 2023, we are keen to continue to unlock the value of what is effectively an only-mover position in a rapidly emerging gold district." On May 02, 2024, Snowline Gold Corp. has discovered three new reduced intrusion-related gold system (RIRGS) targets at its Rogue project, and an additional new RIRGS target at its adjacent Cynthia project in Yukon, Canada. Analytical results from the company's 2023 surface exploration program demonstrate widespread gold mineralization and RIRGS pathfinder elements associated with intrusions of the Rogue Plutonic complex, a 60-kilometre-by-30-kilometre geological feature which also hosts the company's flagship Valley target. Results include outcrop chip sampling to 5.12 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) over 3.3 metres at the Livia target, and selective outcrop grab samples to 86.5 g/t Au at the Ramsey target. The new RIRGS targets are described in more detail below. "While consistent drill results have dominated our headlines, Snowline's regional surface exploration team has done exemplary work behind the scenes, bolstering our exploration pipeline and demonstrating widespread gold fertility within the regional-scale Rogue Plutonic complex," said Scott Berdahl, chief executive officer and director of Snowline. "The presence of our Valley discovery shows that the geological ingredients needed to produce a uniquely robust form of RIRGS mineralization are present at Rogue. The results of our regional work suggest a strong potential for locating other such instances of gold endowment across much of the broader, more than 1,100 square km project area. With essentially the entire Rogue Plutonic complex under full ownership, we are thrilled to have the opportunity to systematically explore this nascent gold district, along with the resources and the team to make the most of this opportunity." On April 25, 2024, Snowline Gold Corp. has completed its previously announced bought deal private placement of 3,685,750 charity flow-through common shares of the company at a price of $7.80 per flow-through share for aggregate gross proceeds of $28,748,850, including $3,749,850 from the full exercise of the underwriter option. Each flow-through share will qualify as a flow-through share (within the meaning of Subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada)). The company also completed a concurrent non-brokered private placement of 405,000 flow-through shares at the offering price for additional gross proceeds of $3,159,000, through which existing shareholder B2Gold Corp. subscribed to maintain its 9.9-per-cent interest in the company. "The present financing provides Snowline the bandwidth to significantly expand the scope of our upcoming field season, allowing us to simultaneously pursue exploration at our Rogue project's Valley target alongside an aggressive regional drill campaign," said Scott Berdahl, chief executive officer and a director of Snowline. "We continue to be impressed both by the results from Valley and from our pipeline of regional targets, and we are keen to unlock value through discovery and efficient advancement of what we see as an emerging Canadian gold district. And we are grateful for the investment of supportive shareholders who have initiated, maintained or expanded on their positions in Snowline through this raise." On April 25, 2024, Snowline Gold Corp. has entered into a purchase agreement that will result in the consolidation of 100-per-cent ownership of its Einarson project through purchase of a privately held 30-per-cent interest in 3,003 mineral claims (approximately 61,000 hectares). Einarson includes the company's Jupiter discovery, which saw 2021 phase 1 drill results of 13.2 grams per tonne (g/t) Au (gold) over 6.5 metres (m), including 43.5 g/t Au over 1.3 m and 10.4 g/t Au over five m within the same hole (see Snowline's press release dated Aug. 25, 2021), alongside other well-mineralized drill holes spanning 1.1 kilometres (km) of open strike length. Additionally, Einarson hosts multiple untested, kilometre-scale gold targets defined by prospecting and surface geochemistry. Einarson sits immediately to the north of and is contiguous with Snowline's 100-per-cent-owned Rogue project, which hosts the company's flagship Valley discovery. In addition to the consolidation, the company will acquire a 100-per-cent interest in the Venus target, a privately held gold target adjacent to Einarson with a reported 2012 drill intersection of 9.67 g/t Au over 38.7 m (true width unknown; results have not been directly verified by the company). "We are thrilled to consolidate the Einarson project and to acquire a full 100-per-cent interest in our Jupiter discovery, alongside other promising targets," said Scott Berdahl, chief executive officer and director of Snowline. "The quantity and scale of the gold targets identified at Einarson through regional baseline work and follow-up prospecting were a big part of our motivation for launching Snowline Gold in 2021. The targets themselves are compelling, and they indicate strong regional gold fertility across Einarson, Rogue and our surrounding projects. The results of our phase 1 drilling at Einarson's Jupiter target underscore this potential, and we are excited to follow up on that discovery and other targets in the upcoming 2024 exploration season, which will soon be under way. April 3, 2024, Snowline Gold Corp. Announces C$25.0 Million Bought Deal Private Placement of Flow-Through Shares April 1, 2024, Snowline Gold Corp. announced that it has received $12.5-million from the early, voluntary exercise of five million warrants. The warrants were held by Ana Maria Cox de Gubbins. Through this acquisition, Ms. Cox has expanded her position to 10.6% of the outstanding shares of the Company.
