Frontline Commences Sampling and Mapping Program at the Flint Lake Property
Toronto, July 6, 2021 - Frontline Gold Corp. (TSXV:FGC) ("Frontline" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has engaged Emerald Geological Services ("EGS") to conduct Frontline's first exploration program on its Flint Lake gold property group ("Property"). The Property comprises 605 hectares (ha) and is contiguous with First Mining Gold and their Cameron Lake Gold Project which hosts 12,100,000 tonnes containing 1,000,000 ounces of gold (https://firstmininggold.com/projects/tier-1/cameron-project/). The objective of this exploration program is to:
-
1) Confirm the presence of gold mineralization at the Sewell Showing (MDI52F05SW0001) where historical grab samples across 13.7m returned trace to 26.1 g/t Au. Trenching has uncovered a mineralized horizon for 185m along strike (Figure 1).
-
2) Confirm the presence of gold mineralization at the Meahan Showing (MDI52F05SW00021) where historical grab samples returned 41.7 g/t Au and 60 g/t Au.
-
3) Investigate the Cameron Lake deformation corridor which transects the Flint Lake claim group and hosts the Cameron Lake gold deposit of First Mining.
-
4) Conduct a targeted A-Horizon soil sampling program where Soldi Ventures Inc. (2010) outlined two potential target areas, one associated with strong shearing in a nearby outcrop exposure; the other with quartz ankerite veining marked by a coincident copper-gold value from a soil sample (AFRI 20010528).
Grab samples are selected samples and not necessarily representative of the mineralization hosted on the property.

Flint Lake Gold Project Highlights
The Flint Lake Property consists of 2 claim groups (Flint Lake and Jessie Lake) totaling 605 hectares. There is currently $300,000 in banked credits on the Flint Lake claim group. Both properties are contiguous with First Mining Gold and their Cameron Lake Gold Project which hosts 12,100,000 tonnes containing 1,000,000 ounces of gold. The Flint Lake property lies along the Pipestone-Cameron Lake deformation corridor, a regional crustal scale fault zone that extends for over 75km in the Wabigoon Subprovince. The Wabigoon Subprovince hosts three relatively new gold deposits: the Cameron Lake Gold Deposit of First Mining Gold, the Goliath Gold Complex of Treasury Metals and the newly producing Rainy River Gold Mine of New Gold Inc. The property group has good access via logging roads and waterways. The mineralization reported on the adjacent properties may not be indicative of the mineralization on the Property.
