2022 exploration and drilling program. The 2022 exploration program focused on identifying new precious metal-rich volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposits, often found in district scale clusters, across the Consolidated Eskay project. Much of the focus was on defining the extent of VMS systems along the eastern and western limbs of the Eskay Anticline. Eskay Mining completed 29,500 meters of diamond drilling along the TV-Jeff corridor and along the Scarlet Ridge-Tarn Lake trend.
Assay results released. Eskay Mining released assay results for 42 holes drilled along the TV-Jeff corridor, including north of the Jeff deposit. Assays returned from holes completed in areas close to the TV deposit yielded significant intercepts of gold and silver mineralization. Wide-spaced drilling approximately 800 meters north of Jeff encountered a new zone of mineralization that yielded high-grade gold and silver values, some within longer intervals of lower grade mineralization. The company is awaiting assay results from maiden drilling in the Scarlet Valley-Tarn Lake area where several new VMS targets were drill tested in 2022.

Drilling at the East Pediment prospect. In late November, Allegiant Gold commenced a follow-up reverse circulation drilling program at the company’s East Pediment prospect to follow up on this year’s discovery of mineralized rhyolite with assays from Hole ES-258 returning intercepts of up to 4.4 grams of gold per tonne. Permits allow for up to 27 reverse circulation drill holes. To allow time for analysis of assay results, the program will be conducted in phases with the first phase comprised of 5 to 6 holes representing 2,000 meters of drilling.
Discovery Hole ES-258. The new discovery led Allegiant to stake an additional 194 mining claims covering parts of the pediment near Hole ES-258. Importantly, mineralization is open at depth where the bottom of Hole ES-258 returned 4.5 meters averaging 0.26 grams of gold per tonne and 13.66 grams of silver per tonne.

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – December 13, 2022) – Maple Gold Mines Ltd. (TSXV: MGM) (OTCQB: MGMLF) (FSE: M3G) (“Maple Gold” or the “Company“) is pleased to report complete assay results for four (4) drillholes and partial assay results for five (5) additional drillholes from the Company’s ongoing 2022 drilling at its 100%-controlled Eagle Mine Property (“Eagle”) located in Québec, Canada. Previously completed digitization and modelling of historical drill results and a further review of drill logs identified a potential southern splay of the main mine horizon (the “South Mine Horizon”) located northwest of the past-producing Eagle mine in an area targeted for follow-up drilling. The new results confirm the continuity of the South Mine Horizon at relatively shallow (< 275 metre (“m”)) vertical depths, suggest local widening of the mineralized zone in this area, and further demonstrate the potential for additional subparallel gold trends at Eagle.
Highlights:
2022 drilling results, including new results detailed below, demonstrate vertical continuity of the South Mine Horizon over a 350 m vertical interval from surface; known mineralization extends to approximately 800 m vertical depth on adjacent sections and remains open along strike to the northwest as well as at depth (see Figures 1 and 2):
Drill hole EM-22-13 intersected 2.3 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold (“Au”) over 10.4 m, including 5.0 g/t Au over 3.2m (from 257 m downhole).
Drill hole EM-22-16 intersected 3.1 g/t Au over 7.3 m, including 4.0 g/t Au over 3.6 m (the latter from 193 m downhole).
Drill hole EM-22-10 intersected 14 g/t Au over 0.5 m (from 539.5 m downhole) and 8.3 g/t Au over 1.0 m (from 543 m downhole); this hole also tested the South Mine Horizon more than 200 m further to the southeast.
All reported drillholes contained gold mineralization (over 1 g/t Au) and seven (7) of the nine (9) reported drillholes contained multi-gram gold intercepts (2 g/t Au or better).
There are still approximately 2,250 m of assays currently pending at Eagle, with a further approximately 1,500 m of remaining drilling to be completed this year.
“These new results at Eagle confirm our modelling interpretations and demonstrate the potential to define significant zones of gold mineralization beyond what was historically mined at Eagle during a much lower gold price environment,” stated Fred Speidel, VP Exploration of Maple Gold. “Encountering relatively shallow multi-gram gold intercepts in an area that remains open for roughly 200 m along strike within the Eagle property boundary and a further 1.5 km beyond that on JV-controlled ground highlights the exploration upside that remains along this past-producing mine trend.”
Interpretation and Summary of Results
The Company’s previously reported contoured longitudinal section (see news releases from October 7, 2021 and January 17, 2022) followed the northern splay in this area of the Eagle deposit. The new drill results support earlier interpretations that gold mineralization occurs over multiple sub-parallel horizons extending along a northwest-southeast orientation, over an actual stratigraphic thickness of more than 100 m (see Figure 2). Historical drillholes located approximately 1.7 km to the northwest of the reported intercepts are associated with semi-massive to banded pyrite with quartz and Fe-carbonate, with several intercepts over 1 g/t Au, including historical hole F-19 that intersected 3.1 g/t Au over 3.5 m (see Figure 1).
Figure 1: Geologic plan view map depicting Eagle drill plan, Eagle-Telbel deposits and line of section shown in Figure 2.
Once all assays have been received from the Company’s 2022 drilling at Eagle, the 3D model and longitudinal sections will be updated with the corresponding grade contouring including all results from the 2022 drilling campaigns.
Table 1: Final and partial results for Eagle drillholes being reported
All intervals are downhole lengths. True widths are estimated to be between 35% (for steeper holes) to 80% (for shallower angle holes) of downhole lengths.

Diamond drilling program. Allegiant released results from its seven-hole, 3,457-meter diamond core drill program within the high-grade zone at Eastside. The drill program targeted deeper high-grade gold-silver mineralization within the core of the Eastside Rhyolite complex as well as deeper portions of the contact between the rhyolite complex and the surrounding volcanic host rocks. The program followed up on high-grade results identified in 2021 reverse circulation (RC) drilling, including Holes ES-239 and ES-243.
Results reaffirm presence of high-grade zones. The program confirmed high-grade gold-silver mineralization that was observed in earlier drill Holes ES-239 and ES-243 and the occurrence of high-grade zones within the Eastside Deposit’s rhyolite host rock. Hole ES-280 returned 9.9 grams of gold per tonne over 1.5 meters and 5.3 grams of gold per tonne over 1.5 meters within a broader intercept of 0.63 grams of gold per tonne over 99 meters. Holes ES-281 and ES-282 returned 1 gram of gold per tonne over 12 meters and 49 meters, respectively, while Hole ES-285 intersected 2 grams of gold over 9 meters within a broader intercept of 0.46 grams of gold per tonne over 105 meters.

Initial resource estimate for Dayton. Comstock published a SEC S-K 1300 compliant initial technical report for the company’s Dayton project. The estimated mineral resources include measured and indicated resources of 293,000 ounces of gold and 2,120,000 ounces of silver and inferred resources of 90,000 ounces of gold and 480,000 ounces of silver.
Plans for exploration and drilling. The Dayton resource is approximately one mile south of the company’s Lucerne mining properties and includes the historic Dayton, Alhambra, Metropolitan, and Kossuth mines. Additional areas for exploration include Oest, the Amazon extension of Oest, and Spring Valley. Comstock intends to develop the Dayton resource through a series of phased drilling programs and engineering studies. The first phase of drilling could include up to 70 reverse circulation holes totaling 31,500 feet to test for high grade mineralization and step out exploration into Spring Valley.

The Argument for Higher Oil Market Prices is Fairly Straightforward
The price of oil is near its 2022 low. This lower per barrel cost is normal when the commodities market perceives the economy as slowing or that it will slow. What is surprising is that the price is near the low for the year when the Chinese are easing Covid restrictions and will soon be requiring more fuel; at the same time, a Russian oil cap, which is sure to bring less supply to the market, was just instituted this week. In the meantime, energy producers, up 60.8% on the year, are not sinking at the pace of oil prices.
Energy shares have been the big winners for 2022. And it is rare that they are flying solo, without the help of price increases of their underlying product. According to Bespoke Investment Group, last month marked the first time since 2006 that the S&P 500 energy sector has traded within 3% of a 12-month high while the price of West Texas Intermediate retreated more than 25% from its one-year peak..
The divergence has caught the attention of investors. Since drillers and miners tend to rise and fall with the prices of the commodities they produce, many expect the gap to narrow to its more historical norm. Most are looking for oil to rise rather than drillers to fall.
Pressures that could cause oil to rise include the EU winter season, the U.S. Strategic Reserves bumping up against depletion, OPEC+ keeping production quotas unchanged, and Western governments’ $60-a-barrel price cap on Russian crude. These, taken together, are expected to put upward pressure on per-barrel prices. The commodities market is not moving in accordance with these factors. Futures contracts for U.S. crude closed Monday 3.8% lower at $76.93 a barrel, its fourth-lowest settle of the year.
Working against the argument for higher crude prices is the expected slowing of world economies. The possibility of a recession in many global economies while central banks raise interest rates, is unknown. Any impact remains to be seen.

Going for the gold. Maple Gold released results from drilling completed at the Douay Gold Project during the first half of 2022 totaling 7,800 meters. Douay is held by a 50/50 joint venture between the company and Agnico Eagle Mines Limited. The first year of drilling focused primarily on infill drilling. The second year focused on “quantum leap” style exploration with additional step-outs, deep drilling, and testing discovery targets. The same approach will be taken next year to define the extent and potential of the mineralized system at Douay. An additional ~10,000 meters of drilling has been completed at the Eagle and Telbel mine properties with assays pending.
Favorable drill results. Ten of twelve holes returned intercepts over 0.45 grams of gold per tonne, and seven returned intercepts greater than 1.0 gram of gold per tonne. Hole DO-22-322A in the Nika Zone intersected 9.8 grams of gold over 1 meter from 584 meters depth along with other positive intercepts that support depth continuity of the intrusive hydrothermal gold system at Douay. Sediment-hosted gold showings at the NE IP Target provided support for a new gold zone four kilometers to the northeast of the current Douay mineral resource area. Hole DO-22-326 in the Central Zone returned four intercepts greater than 1 gram of gold per tonne, including 3.0 grams of gold per tonne over 1.0 meter from only 67 meters downhole.
