Labrador Gold Raises $3.88 Million From Exercise of Share Purchase Warrants
June 29 2022 - 8:00AM
Labrador Gold Corp. (TSX.V:LAB | OTCQX:NKOSF | FNR: 2N6) (“LabGold”
or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has raised
$3,885,285.90 from the recent exercise of share purchase warrants
(the “warrants”) with a strike price of $0.175 and $0.30. The
warrant exercise increases the Company’s cash position to $26.5
million. Management and directors of Labrador Gold were among those
exercising warrants.
“The funds brought in by the exercise of the
warrants adds to an already robust treasury and allows us to
continue our ongoing exploration of the 12km strike length of the
Appleton Fault Zone at our 100% owned Kingsway Project,” said Roger
Moss, President and CEO. “The hard work of the LabGold team over
the past two years has resulted in the generation and successful
drilling of four out of four gold targets. This demonstrates both
the ability of our people on the ground as well as the
prospectivity of the Kingsway project, and the Appleton Fault Zone
in particular. We look forward to another exciting summer of
discovery as we prove up more targets in the pipeline and get them
ready for drilling.”
Exploration Update
Drilling continues at Kingsway with four drill
rigs. Two rigs are working at Big Vein, one testing the down plunge
extension of the high-grade HTC Zone below 250m, and the other
testing the southwest extension of the Big Vein Zone. A third rig
continues to test the Golden Glove target while the fourth rig
tests the CSAMT target approximately eight kilometres northeast of
Big Vein. The CSAMT target was generated from geophysical
(controlled source audio magnetotellurics, magnetics and VLF-EM)
and geochemical (gold in soil, rock and till) anomalies and is in
an area of structural complexity. Both the Golden Glove and CSAMT
targets occur on the east side of the Appleton Fault Zone.
Approximately 44% of the 100,000 metre planned program has been
completed to date.

About Labrador GoldLabrador Gold is a Canadian
based mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition and
exploration of prospective gold projects in Eastern Canada.
In early 2020, Labrador Gold acquired the option
to earn a 100% interest in the 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 50,000 metres
targeting high-grade epizonal gold mineralization along the
Appleton Fault Zone following encouraging early results. The
Company has approximately $26.5 million in working capital and is
well funded to carry out the planned program.
The Hopedale property covers much of the
Florence Lake greenstone belts 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 25th 2018 for more details).
Labrador Gold now controls approximately 40km strike length of the
Florence Lake Greenstone Belt.
The Company has 168,889,979 common shares issued and outstanding
