Gold Bull provides update on Sandman Project in Nevada

VANCOUVER, Oct. 26, 2020 - Gold Bull Resources Corp. (TSX-V: GBRC) (“Gold Bull” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update of the Sandman Gold Acquisition Project. As announced on October 12, 2020, the Company has executed a Purchase and Sales Agreement to acquire 100% of the asset (“Sandman” or the “Project”) for USD $4 million in cash.

HIGHLIGHTS:

The Company has initiated a revised NI43-101 report for Sandman which will include an updated resource estimate. The current 43-101 Resource Estimate was drafted in 2007 and contains a 309,900 oz Au total resource (comprised of a Measured & Indicated Resource of 271,900 oz Au plus an Inferred Resource of 38,000 oz Au, refer to Table 4 for details). Subsequent to the 2007 resource estimate being completed, additional drilling has occurred that will be included in the updated resource estimate.

Incoming CEO Cherie Leeden stated, “I am very excited for Gold Bull to review and release a new 43-101 report for Sandman that will incorporate additional drilling completed since 2007. When the previous 43-101 report was done in 2007, the gold price was less than half of what it is today. The project has not been systematically explored at depth and the majority of the historical drilling to date has been to a depth of less than 100m. Our team is looking forward to focussing on the exploration opportunity, targeting higher grade feeder zones >100m deep.”

Gold Bull is in the planning phase of a staged drill campaign at Sandman that is scheduled to commence in January 2021. The purpose of the drill campaign will be twofold; to verify and possibly extend known mineralisation and to test new undercover exploration targets, never before drilled. The initial program is expected to comprise an initial 3,000 meter reverse circulation (RC) program. A second phase of drilling will commence after laboratory results have been received for the first phase.

Gold Bull will provide a more detailed exploration and drilling update upon completion of the Sandman acquisition. The Company’s technical team is in the process of reviewing the extensive historical database in order to rank and prioritise targets and proposed drill holes. The Company provides some additional information on three of the known targets; Silica Ridge, SE Pediment and North Hill (Figure 1).

Silica Ridge Target

The primary host units at Silica Ridge are fluvial siltstone, sandstone, conglomerate, and epiclastic tuff. Mineralization is primarily focused along the main NNE and NW fault sets over a known strike length of 850 meters. Gold values are elevated in fault breccias, especially where coincident with conglomerate beds. The mineralization at Silica Ridge occurs over a 700 by 250m area. Previous drilling at Silica Ridge has intersected high grade oxide gold mineralisation including:

SE Pediment Target

Southeast Pediment is an outcropping, moderately dipping, high-grade vein system hosting a predominantly oxide gold resource at the intersection of two prominent structures. Approximate dimensions Southeast Pediment are 305 meters in length by 30 to 60 meters in width. Drilling has intersected a wide zone of high-grade sulfide mineralization (hole NSM-051) below the oxide gold vein, illustrating the high-grade nature and strong continuity of mineralisation at SE Pediment, and suggesting the presence of multiple mineralised vein structures in the deposit. Highlights from historic drilling at SE Pediment include:

North Hill Target

The North Hill target has been characterized as an oxidized, low-sulfidation, epithermal gold occurrence that extends 550m long, 430m wide. Mineralization at North Hill is controlled by a combination of low-angle contacts between the various basalt flows and the interbedded fluvial conglomerates and tuffaceous rocks. Previous drilling intersected oxide gold mineralization stating at a depth of less than 25m and high-grade intercepts at North Hill include:

Technical Appointment

Gold Bull recently welcomed Mr. Robbie Anderson to its Geology Team. Mr. Anderson has over a decade of experience working as a geologist in exploration, production and mineral development, with the last ten years focused across the Great Basin, with a portion of that time spent with Newmont, working on Sandman. Mr. Anderson received his B.Sc. in Geology from the University of Georgia in 2006 and earned his M.Sc. in Economic Geology at the University of Nevada, Reno in 2013. This research focused on the stratigraphy, structure and mineralization of the Sandman epithermal deposit, a core focus of the Company. Mr. Anderson’s thesis on Sandman is available at: https://data.nbmg.unr.edu/Public/CREG/StudentTheses/Anderson_Sandman_UNRMS2013.pdf
