Victoria, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 10, 2024) - GoldON Resources Ltd. (TSXV: GLD) (the "Company") is pleased to announce the commencement of exploration drilling at its 100%-owned West Madsen gold property (the "Property").

Located in the heart of the Red Lake Gold District, the 5,988-hectare Property covers two claim blocks, Block A (east) and Block B (west), that are non-contiguous by less than 100 metres. Block A adjoins the Madsen gold mine property (Figure 1) where West Red Lake Gold Mines (WRLG) expects to restart production in the second half of 2025.

The bulk of the mineral resources on the Madsen mine property are hosted in a ~7-km-long gold trend that follows the major crustal break or contact between the Balmer and Confederation assemblages. GoldON has observed the same Balmer-Confederation contact in outcrop ~1.5 kilometres (km) west of the Block A eastern claim boundary and identified it within an ~8-km corridor of disrupted regional magnetics that traverses Block A from the Madsen mine property.

The next phase of drilling will focus on Block A where GoldON's previous prospecting and diamond drilling discovered gold mineralization in felsic intrusive rocks (quartz-feldspar porphyry) within the Confederation Assemblage.

The eye-opener was hole WM-21-22 (Drill hole location map) which intersected a 195-metre zone of relatively consistent low-grade gold mineralization (i.e. values greater than 0.1 g/t Au), that included elevated gold values of up to 2.2 g/t Au over 2.2 metres which was within a broader interval of 0.51 g/t Au over 10.9 metres. The consistent anomalous gold in this hole suggests the potential of a proximal gold system, and as such, warrants further investigation via the target development that has been focused within and around this area.

The exploration potential for gold mineralization within felsic rocks of the Confederation Assemblage was elevated by Great Bear's gold discovery at their Dixie property. Instead of intermittent high-grade, vein-hosted gold mineralization typical of the Red Lake Camp, Great Bear found continuous sheet-like mineralization with high-grade gold occurring within a lower-grade mineralized halo. Great Bear was acquired by Kinross Gold Corp. in February 2022 for $1.8 billion.

"Our drill target development, spearheaded by Andrea Diakow, P.Geo., former exploration manager at Great Bear, has embraced the theory that previous exploration efforts at West Madsen have provided valuable insights into the potential of a more robust gold mineralization system and we are excited to commence drill testing these new targets," said Mike Romanik, President of GoldON.
