Desert Gold Completes Exploration Core Drilling at Mogoyafara South and Frikidi Gold Zones; SMSZ Project, Western Mali

04.04.2024  |  Newsfile

Surrey, April 4, 2024 - Desert Gold Ventures Inc. (TSXV: DAU) (FSE: QXR2) (OTCQB: DAUGF) ("Desert Gold" or "the Company") announces that it has completed four additional exploration core holes to test specific targets at its Mogoyarfara South gold deposit and Frikjdi zone.

Desert Gold's CEO, Jared Scharf, commented, "Thanks to the support of our shareholders, we were able to take advantage of the core drill that was on site for our PEA to drill four additional, high priority exploration core holes. These holes were designed to answer specific geological questions. We are very encouraged by what we see in the core and look forward to the assay results."

Four holes totaling 729 meters, were completed over the Mogoyafara South Deposit (two holes) and Frikidi Zone (two holes). Please see Table 1 for hole collar details and Figure 1, at end, for general zone locations.

The Mogoyafara South deposit contains open pit constrained inferred mineral resources 412,800 ounces* of gold grading 1.05 g/t Au making it the largest known gold deposit on the SMSZ Project to date. This deposit is open along strike and to depth and lies within a 2 km by 3 km area of structural rotation, which is a feature deemed positive for the gold deposition in most structurally-related gold camps. Two angled core holes, 252 meters and 287 meters deep, 100 meters apart, were drilled into an area where modeling suggested multiple stacked lenses of gold mineralization. Both holes intersected potentially gold-mineralized, silicified, sericitized and albitized siltstones, sandstones and conglomerates that are cut by occasional mafic and felsic dykes. One of the holes was designed to cross an intercept that returned 1.62 g/t Au over 11 meters (estimated true width). The 2nd drill hole represents an 80 m down-dip step out from a historic intercept of 1.22 g/t Au over 41 meters (estimated true width). Additional details will be presented once assay results have been received and analyzed.

Sampling at the Frikidi gold target returned 61 rock samples containing more than 5 g/t Au, five of which returned 100 g/t Au or greater**. Frikidi represents an area of numerous artisanal mine workings within a 5 km by 2.5 km, northwest-trending, cross-cutting, magnetic high area. Hole FAW-24-DD-001, a portion of which is presented below (Image 1), was drilled to test for shallow-dipping mineralized structures that were observed in the artisanal mine shafts. The quartz-veined portions of the core shown below, intersected from 23.9 meters to 39.0 meters, is consistent with gold-bearing rock grab samples that were collected on surface. The second hole was drilled to validate a historic drill intercept of 1.07 g/t Au over 26 meters (true width unknown), which may represent a new mineralized trend. Assays are pending.
