Anaconda Mining Finalizes Infill Drilling at Stog’er Tight and Progresses Development Activity

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / July 22, 2021 / Anaconda Mining Inc. ("Anaconda" or the "Company") (TSX:ANX)(OTCQX:ANXGF) is pleased to announce final results from 733 metres of a 5,158-metre infill drill program at Stog'er Tight (the "Infill Drill Program") (Exhibit A). The final drill holes tested the margins of the potential open pit shells and encountered mineralization that may broaden the preliminary pit at its margins. With the final drill results received, the Company will finalize geological and resource modelling, pit design and financial analysis of the deposit, which will leverage the Pine Cove Mill and Tailings Facility approximately three kilometres to the west along established road networks.

Based on the success of the Infill Drill Program, the Company has initiated an 850-metre geotechnical drilling and ground water monitoring program to support detailed pit design and to obtain relevant environmental data to support ongoing environmental assessment work.

Highlights from the Infill Drill Program conducted since March 2021, including previously unreported holes BN-21-478 to BN-21-495 disclosed here, include:

  • 8.46 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold over 5.0 metres (41.0 to 46.0 metres), including 34.00 g/t gold over 1.0 metre in diamond drill hole BN-21-429;
  • 7.91 g/t gold over 6.0 metres (89.0 to 95.0 metres), including 20.30 g/t gold over 1.0 metre in diamond drill hole BN-21-447;
  • 1.54 g/t gold over 29.4 metres (6.6 to 36.0 metres), including 15.90 g/t gold over 1.0 metre in diamond drill hole BN-21-470;
  • 4.72 g/t gold over 7.0 metres (64.0 to 71.0 metres) including 19.50 g/t gold over 1.0 metres; and 0.84 g/t gold over 10.0 metres (27.0 to 37.0 metres) in diamond drill hole BN-21-468;
  • 1.60 g/t gold over 15.4 metres (35.6 to 51.0 metres), including 8.10 g/t gold over 0.5 metres in diamond drill hole BN-21-474;
  • 3.62 g/t gold over 20.0 metres (31.8 to 51.8 metres), including 19.40 g/t gold over 1.0 metres and 10.20 g/t gold over 1.0 metre in diamond drill hole BN-21-422;
  • 3.86 g/t gold over 7.0 metres (48.0 to 55.0 metres), including 14.20 g/t gold over 1.0 metres in diamond drill hole BN-21-420;
  • 2.44 g/t gold over 7.8 metres (7.6 to 15.4 metres), including 6.24 g/t gold over 1.0 metres in diamond drill hole BN-21-402;
  • 1.82 g/t gold over 2.7 metres (30.8 to 33.5 metres) in diamond drill hole BN-21-479;
  • 0.97 g/t gold over 9.0 metres (43.0 to 52.0 metres) in diamond drill hole BN-21-491; and
  • 0.94 g/t gold over 7.0 metres (13.0 to 20.0 metres) in diamond drill hole BN-21-492.

Selected intersections from holes BN-21-478 to BN-21-495 of the Infill Drill Program at Stog'er Tight are shown in Table 1 below.

"With the results of the Infill Drill Program in hand following the discovery of this extension of the Stog'er Tight Mine a year ago, we are now ready to finalize resource estimation, initiate detailed pit design and update our financial analysis for the potential project. We also continue to gather environmental baseline data to support the enhanced Environmental Registration document to be submitted to regulators in the fourth quarter of 2021. While we conduct geotechnical and environmental work at Stog'er Tight, we are also working on the recently announced 6,000 metres of diamond drilling and a 100-line kilometre geophysical program to test the broader prospectivity of the Point Rousse Project with the near-term goal of extending the life of mine at Point Rousse, where we operate the only producing gold mine and mill in Newfoundland."

~ Kevin Bullock, President and CEO, Anaconda Mining Inc.

The Stog'er Tight Deposit is located three (3) kilometres east of the Pine Cove Mill, adjacent to existing road networks, and has been defined over a strike length of 1,250 metres to date. Anaconda produced a total of 17,102 ounces of gold from 349,942 tonnes of ore from the Stog'er Tight Mine between June 2018 and January 2020. Gold from Stog'er Tight was recovered through the Pine Cove Mill with an average head grade of 1.75 g/t gold at an overall recovery of approximately 87%.

Preliminary environmental studies have been initiated at the expanded Stog'er Tight Deposit, including environmental baseline work associated with Camp Pond, which is anticipated to be impacted by potential development west of the Stog'er Tight Mine. Fox Pond, located east of Camp Pond, was similarly underlain by the Stog'er Tight Deposit which was successfully mined in 2018 and 2019 by partial dewatering of the pond under appropriate Provincial and Federal Government authorizations. The Company also continues to gather baseline data, including the installation of water monitoring wells, to support the submission of an enhanced Environmental Registration document to regulators in the fourth quarter of 2021. In addition, fish and fish habitat data is being collected to support the development of a Fisheries Act Authorization application and a fish habitat offsetting plan, which is also expected to be submitted in the fourth quarter.

Footnotes:

1 - Diamond drill holes BN-21-478 to -495 were drilled consecutively. Any drill hole numbers not shown in the table above have no significant assays.

2 - Interval expressed as core length only; true thickness is estimated to be 80-100% of interval length due to local drilling conditions that does not always allow for drilling orthogonally to the apparent dip of mineralization.
