Gold’n Futures Reports High-Grade Gold Mineralization in Latest Six Drill Holes at its Hercules Project in Ontario & Announces Non-Brokered Financing
February 23 2022 - 7:30AM
Gold’n Futures Mineral Corp. (CSE: FUTR) (FSE: G6M), (OTC: GFTRF)
(the "Company” or “Gold’n Futures”) reports on the Company’s second
round of results for its inaugural diamond drill program (the
“Drill Program”) on the Hercules Gold Project in the
Beardmore-Geraldton gold camp of northwestern Ontario (the
“Hercules Project”). All six holes of the second round of results
from the Drill Program intersected significant gold values ranging
up to 36.7 grams per tonne Gold (“g/t Au”) in hole HR22-07.
Highlights of Drill Program to
Date
- All ten drill
holes sampled during the Drill Program intersected the Golden Mile
zone (“GMZ”).
- Of the 128 core
samples assayed, 40 graded better than 100 ppb gold of which 17
samples returned analyses of 1,000 ppb gold or greater.
- Highest grade
gold intersections include:
- drill hole
HR22-06 with 3.52 metres (“m”) of 5.91 grams per tonne gold (“g/t”
Au) that includes 0.80 m of 13.30 g/t Au;
- drill hole
HR22-07 with 7.62 g/t Au over a width of 2.50 m, that includes 0.7
m of 36.70 g/t Au.
- In addition, a
broad zone of lower grade returned 7.55 m averaging 1.12 g/t Au in
hole HR22-10.
- The second round
of drill results confirms the GMZ mineralization occurs in
composite zones of one or more quartz veins with attendant
sulphide-mineralization spatially associated with magnetic mafic
rocks over core intervals of up to 11.0 m.
“The drilling was restarted following the
Christmas break and was paused again with the completion of hole,
HR22-10. We are highly encouraged finding the Golden Mile gold zone
amazingly robust and in previously untested areas. All ten
inaugural holes intercepted the mineralization and predictably at
the depth forecast by our geological team. We are confident that
the next modelling of the Hercules Project gold zones will return
noticeable improvements to the historical resources of the
property.”
Commented, Stephen Wilkinson, President and
CEO
The six drill holes, HR22-05 to -10, have a
total core length of 682 m and were drilled in January 2022. On
January 24, 128 samples, including quality control and blank
samples were shipped to the ActLabs facility in Geraldton, Ontario.
A further round of re-assaying has been arranged on 26 selected
split core that showed grades of 1.00 g/t Au or greater. The
re-assaying is to check for grade variability due to potential
nuggety nature of the Golden Mile mineralization.

Including the drilling done prior to the
December 2021 break, Gold’n Futures’ Drill Program has consisted of
ten drill holes amounting to approximately 1,227 m of core for
which 236 samples have been assayed.
Next Steps
The Company intends to continue to delineate the
gold mineralization of the Hercules Project with its Drill Program.
The Drill Program is intended to finish with four additional holes
for a total of 14 holes drilled. Assays will be reported as soon as
available. In March, 2022 a detail ground magnetic geophysical
survey will be conducted to supplement the Company’s recent
airborne magnetics survey and to give improved definition to the
relationship of the mafic magnetic dykes, high-grade gold zones and
smaller scale structures. A preliminary report on the airborne
geophysical survey conducted by GoldSpot Discoveries Corp. (TSXV:
SPOT) (OTCQX: SPOFF) is expected to be received within the next
month. The Company will be designing its next stages for the
exploration of the Hercules Project based upon targets defined by
the geophysical surveys integrated with the drill results and
compilation of the extensive historical data.

200 kilometres northeast of Thunder Bay, Ont., in the townships of
Elmhirst and Rickaby, within the Thunder Bay North Mining District.
The Hercules Project is in the heart of the Beardmore – Geraldton
gold mining camp, the 4th largest gold camp in Canada and is 40 km
west of the Hardrock-Greenstone gold mine development. The Hercules
Project lies within an Archean greenstone belt that extends from
the Longlac area in the east to Lake Nipigon in the west, a
distance of about 130 kilometres and consists of 475 contiguous
claim cells (10,052 ha). From the historical work completed on the
Hercules Project, the Company has built an extensive database
including reconnaissance grab samples; channel samples; a variety
of geophysical surveys; and a drill hole database that includes
historical drilling totalling in the order of 537 holes with more
than 107,000 m of drill core. With surface grab samples grading up
10,374 g/t gold and channel samples up to 32.96 g/t gold across
11.6 m, the Hercules gold zones offer top tier targets for the
expansion of its historical resources.
