Significant progress at Kingsway. Exploration and drilling at the company’s 100%-owned Kingsway gold project is targeting the Appleton Fault over a 12-kilometer strike length. With approximately $17 million in cash, Labrador Gold has ample financial resources to fund the remaining 34,000 meters of drilling of the company’s planned 100,000-meter drill program.
2023 drilling program. Drilling will continue this year at the Big Vein target and further drilling will be undertaken at the Midway and Pristine targets. Labrador Gold currently has two drill rigs deployed at the Big Vein target. The company expects to add a third rig to drill northeast of the Pristine target which could later move to the Midway target, and a fourth rig to drill in an area (“The Gap”) between Big Vein and Pristine.

Exploration continues at Hopedale. Labrador Gold released results from grab and channel samples from the northernmost Thurber Dog license at the company’s Hopedale project in Labrador. Hopedale consists of 998 claims in five licenses covering 249 square kilometers of the Florence Lake greenstone belt. Previous work by others revealed significant gold in rock and soil over a three kilometer strike length, including four mineralized occurrences: 1) Thurber North with up to 3.8 grams per tonne, 2) TD500 with up to 21.59 grams per tonne, 3) Thurber Dog with up to 11.4 grams per tonne, and Thurber South with up to 4.1 grams per tonne. In addition to gold, the property has nickel and copper potential.
Encouraging assay results. Grab samples at TD500 returned gold values ranging from 0.46 grams per tonne to 21.59 grams per tonne. Channel sampling over a strike length of 60 meters returned 2.91 grams gold per tonne over 5.17 meters including 14.02 grams of gold per tonne over 0.61 meters, 2.35 grams of gold per tonne over 6.88 meters, and 4.23 grams of gold per tonne over 5.04 meters. Shear hosted gold mineralization has been discovered over a 35 meter strike length. Grab samples at the Kaapak copper occurrence returned up to 10.2% copper with seven of nine grab samples assaying over 1% copper. Channel sampling over a strike length of 50 meters at Kaapak returned copper values of up to 3.31%.

TORONTO, Jan. 19, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Labrador Gold Corp. (TSX.V:LAB | OTCQX:NKOSF | FNR: 2N6) (“LabGold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce results of prospecting and channel sampling at the Florence Lake Greenstone Belt on its Hopedale Project in Labrador.
Highlights of the exploration include high-grade copper and gold in rock from both grab and channel samples from the northernmost (Thurber Dog) license. Previous work by LabGold and others in this area has outlined significant gold in rock and soil over a 3km strike length, including four discrete mineralized occurrences: Thurber North up to 3.8 g/t Au; TD500 up to 21.59 g/t Au; Thurber Dog up to 11.4 g/t Au; Thurber South up to 4.1 g/t Au (Figure 1).
Follow up sampling at the TD500 gold occurrence returned gold values from grab samples ranging from 0.46 g/t to 21.59 g/t Au. The showing was channel sampled along eight channels over a strike length of approximately 60 metres. Gold varies from below detection limit (<5ppb) to 14.02 g/t with 48 samples assaying greater than 100ppb (0.1g/t) Au that includes 19 samples greater than 1 g/t Au. Highlights of the channel samples include 2.91 g/t Au over 5.17m including 14.02 g/t over 0.61m, 2.35 g/t Au over 6.88m and 4.23 g/t over 5.04m.
Shear hosted gold mineralization at TD500 has now been uncovered over a 35m strike length and occurs in quartz veins and disseminated in the host rocks close to the contact between mafic volcanic and metasedimentary rocks. Pyrite and arsenopyrite are commonly associated with the gold mineralization.
Grab samples from the copper occurrence (Kaapak) ranged from 131 ppm to 10.2% Cu, with seven of the nine samples assaying over 1% Cu. Elevated silver in these samples ranged from 0.2 to 9.8 g/t Ag. The showing was channel sampled along eight channels over a strike length of approximately 50 metres. Results showed copper values ranging from 18ppm to 3.31% and silver values from 0.1 to 2 g/t. Highlights include 3.31% Cu over 0.76m, 2.4% Cu over 0.6m and 1.55% Cu over 1m. Summaries of assay highlights are given in Tables 1 and 2.
Copper is present as disseminated to locally semi-massive chalcopyrite and lesser malachite associated with quartz veins close to the contact with mafic and ultramafic volcanic rocks.

Table 2. Highlights of channel sample results from Kaapak and TD500. While true widths have not been calculated, channels were cut as close to perpendicular to strike as possible so the reported widths are expected to be close to true widths.
“While our focus continues to be our ongoing drilling at Kingsway, our exploration programs at Hopedale continue to turn up excellent results. The three kilometre “Thurber Dog trend” of significant gold mineralization that includes the four discrete gold occurrences is a compelling target for future work with the potential for further discovery,” said Roger Moss, President and CEO. “Our initial work at the Kaapak copper occurrence has demonstrated high grade copper that needs follow up to determine its true extent. In addition, based on LabGold’s initial work in the southern portion of the property, there appears to be potential for nickel mineralization associated with ultramafic rocks in the region.”

All rock samples were securely stored prior to shipping to Eastern Analytical Laboratory in Springdale, Newfoundland for assay. Eastern Analytical is an ISO/IEC17025 accredited laboratory. Samples were analyzed for gold by standard 30g fire assay with atomic absorption finish as well as by ICP-OES for an additional 34 elements. Samples with fire assay results greater than 1g/t Au were reassayed by metallic screen/fire assay. Overlimit copper samples were re-assayed by atomic absorption. The company submits blanks and certified reference standards at a rate of approximately 5% of the total samples in each batch.

About Labrador Gold Labrador Gold is a Canadian based mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition and exploration of prospective gold projects in Eastern Canada.
Labrador Gold’s flagship property is the 100% owned Kingsway project in the Gander area of Newfoundland. The three licenses comprising the Kingsway project cover approximately 12km of the Appleton Fault Zone which is associated with gold occurrences in the region, including those of New Found Gold immediately to the south of Kingsway. Infrastructure in the area is excellent located just 18km from the town of Gander with road access to the project, nearby electricity and abundant local water. LabGold is drilling a projected 100,000 metres targeting high-grade epizonal gold mineralization along the Appleton Fault Zone with encouraging results. The Company has approximately $18 million in working capital and is well funded to carry out the planned program.
The Hopedale property covers much of the Florence Lake greenstone belt that stretches over 60 km. The belt is typical of greenstone belts around the world but has been underexplored by comparison. Work to date by Labrador Gold show gold anomalies in rocks, soils and lake sediments over a 3 kilometre section of the northern portion of the Florence Lake greenstone belt in the vicinity of the known Thurber Dog gold showing where grab samples assayed up to 11.4 g/t gold. In addition, anomalous gold in soil and lake sediment samples occur over approximately 40 km along the southern section of the greenstone belt. Labrador Gold now controls approximately 40km strike length of the Florence Lake Greenstone Belt.
The Company has 170,009,979 common shares issued and outstanding and trades on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol LAB.

Beginning the year in a position of strength. In 2022, exploration at the company’s 100%-owned Kingsway gold project targeted the Appleton Fault over a 12-kilometer strike length. A total of 62,504 meters of the planned 100,000-meter program have been drilled to date, with roughly 36,000 meters of drilling completed in 2022. With approximately $18 million in cash, Labrador Gold has ample financial resources to fund the remaining 37,496 meters of drilling. Assays are pending for samples from 3,903 meters of core, or approximately 10% of the total submitted.
Appleton Fault is proving to be fertile ground. Labrador Gold’s exploration program resulted in the discovery of four new gold occurrences. Three of these, Golden Glove, Big Vein and Pristine, are located along the Appleton Fault Zone which continues to be Labrador Gold’s primary exploration target. With only about two kilometers of the 12-kilometer strike length of the Appleton Fault Zone tested by drilling, management is confident additional discoveries will be made as the remaining ten kilometers are drill tested.

Hole K-22-211 was collared 40 metres southwest of Hole K-22-174 that intersected 284.1 g/t Au over 0.58 metres and 15.05g/t Au over 1.11 metres (see News Release dated July 7, 2022) and extends the mineralized zone further to the Southwest.
“We continue to have drilling success at both ends of Big Vein which has now been drilled over a strike length of approximately 520 metres and remains open in both directions. In particular, the high grade zone containing visible gold at Big Vein Southwest continues to expand,” said Roger Moss, President and CEO. “Two drill rigs continue drilling at Big Vein to test for extensions of the mineralization in both directions. Drilling will continue through the winter.”
Table 1. Summary of assay results. All intersections are downhole length as there is insufficient Information to calculate true width.
A total of 61,404 metres have been drilled to date out of the planned 100,000 metre program. Assays are pending for samples from approximately 4,263 metres of core (11.4% of the total submitted).
The Company has $20 million in cash and is well funded to carry out the remaining 39,000 metres of the planned drill program as well as further exploration to add to the pipeline of drill targets on the property.

QA/QC
True widths of the reported intersections have yet to be calculated. Assays are uncut. Samples of HQ split core are securely stored prior to shipping to Eastern Analytical Laboratory in Springdale, Newfoundland for assay. Eastern Analytical is an ISO/IEC17025 accredited laboratory. Samples are routinely analyzed for gold by standard 30g fire assay with atomic absorption finish as well as by ICP-OES for an additional 34 elements. Samples containing visible gold are assayed by metallic screen/fire assay, as are any samples with fire assay results greater than 1g/t Au. The company submits blanks and certified reference standards at a rate of approximately 5% of the total samples in each batch.

About Labrador Gold Labrador Gold is a Canadian based mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition and exploration of prospective gold projects in Eastern Canada.
Labrador Gold’s flagship property is the 100% owned Kingsway project in the Gander area of Newfoundland. The three licenses comprising the Kingsway project cover approximately 12km of the Appleton Fault Zone which is associated with gold occurrences in the region, including those of New Found Gold immediately to the south of Kingsway. Infrastructure in the area is excellent located just 18km from the town of Gander with road access to the project, nearby electricity and abundant local water. LabGold is drilling a projected 100,000 metres targeting high-grade epizonal gold mineralization along the Appleton Fault Zone with encouraging results. The Company has approximately $20 million in working capital and is well funded to carry out the planned program.
The Hopedale property covers much of the Florence Lake greenstone belt that stretches over 60 km. The belt is typical of greenstone belts around the world but has been underexplored by comparison. Work to date by Labrador Gold show gold anomalies in rocks, soils and lake sediments over a 3 kilometre section of the northern portion of the Florence Lake greenstone belt in the vicinity of the known Thurber Dog gold showing where grab samples assayed up to 7.8g/t gold. In addition, anomalous gold in soil and lake sediment samples occur over approximately 40 km along the southern section of the greenstone belt (see news release dated January 25 th 2018 for more details). Labrador Gold now controls approximately 40km strike length of the Florence Lake Greenstone Belt.
