Provenance Gold Triples Land Position After Strong 2023 Drill Results at Eldorado
Vancouver, March 19, 2024 - Provenance Gold Corp. (CSE: PAU) (OTCQB: PVGDF) (the "Company" or "Provenance") is pleased to report that following the strong results of the Company's recent 11-hole drill program, coupled with continuing positive geological field investigations, the Company has secured an additional 42 BLM claims through staking adjacent to its Eldorado property in Malheur County, USA (Figure 1). As part of Provenance's ongoing advancement at Eldorado, the expansion has added 804 acres to the project's original 336 acres, for a total new land package of 1,140 acres.
The expanded land area exhibits evidence of historic placer mining and hosts strong soil gold anomalies as well as scattered widely spaced historic drill holes that report strong gold intervals. Provenance's geological modeling suggests mineralized structures extend onto the new claims thereby adding several promising target areas outside the confirmed gold system.

2024 Exploration Plans
Provenance plans additional sampling and mapping followed by core and RC drilling in 2024 to test the extent of the large gold envelope via infill drilling, +300m vertical depth drilling, and by testing additional high-grade gold bearing breccia structures similar to the one intersected in the 2023 drilling. The success of the 2023 drill program would suggest that the mineralized system at Eldorado is large, starts at the surface and extends to depth.
