VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 12, 2024 / Golden Lake Exploration Inc. (CSE:GLM) ("GLM" or "Golden Lake" or the "Company") (OTCQB:GOLXF) today reports the results of its autumn drill program, recently completed on its flagship Jewel Ridge property (the "Property"), located in the prolific Battle Mountain-Eureka gold trend of Nevada.
The Property is well-located proximal to infrastructure and is immediately adjacent to a successful, high-profile exploration program currently being undertaken by North Peak Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:NPR), on their neighboring Prospect Mountain property.
AUTUMN DRILL PROGRAM RESULTS:
In all, a total of 1,756 metres of reverse circulation drilling comprising 5 holes were completed in the subject drill program at Jewel Ridge (JR-24-51 to JR-24-55).
Drill targets included Induced Polarization (IP) anomalies (generated from 2024 surveys) situated within favorable geological & structural settings, hosting both Carlin-type disseminated gold deposits and carbonate replacement deposits. Other targets included historic mines yielding high precious and base-metal assays, exploited at shallow depth that have seen no historic drilling.
The following table documents the most significant results yielded by the drill program:

1 Gold and silver analyses performed by Paragon Geochemical Laboratories in Reno, NV, utilizing an aqua-regia digestion followed by a fire-assay analyses and an atomic absorption finish, on 30 grams of sample
2 No significant values (nsv)
Highlighting the results, are 2 intercepts obtained in hole JR-24-54, yielding broad intervals of anomalous to strongly anomalous gold and silver values, specifically 0.77 g/t Au & 17.54 g/t Ag over 13.72 metres (including 1.42 g/t Au & 35.10 g/t Ag over 6.10 metres) as well as 0.18 g/t Au & 3.92 g/t Ag over 25.91 metres (including 0.44 g/t Au and 3.29 g/t Ag over 7.62 metres). Notably, both intercepts are closely associated with 2 prominent north-trending structures that traverse the Eureka district: an unnamed fault as well as the Jackson fault. The Jackson fault in particular, is intimately associated with several known Carlin-type gold as well as carbonate replace deposits (CRD), situated immediately to the north of Jewel Ridge on the Ruby Hill property, owned by i-80 Gold Corp. Additional drilling is clearly warranted in the immediate locale of drill hole JR-24-54 at Jewel Ridge, along strike as well as at depth (see Figure 1).
