C.BLLG
| February 14, 2023
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 14, 2023 / Blue Lagoon Resources Inc.
(the "
Company
") (CSE:BLLG)(FSE:7BL)(OTCQB:BLAGF) is pleased to announce final results from the 2022 Phase II drilling program on its year-round, road accessible, Dome Mountain Gold Project, located a short 50-minute drive from Smithers, British Columbia.
Significant intersections from drill holes drilled along the western strike extension of the Boulder Vein, include:
DM-22-280 - 8.68 g/t Au, 68.4 g/t Ag and 0.27% Cu over 3.55 meters including 24.40 g/t Au, 158.0 g.t Ag, 0.50% Cu over 0.60 metres, and,
DM-22-283 - 7.28 g/t Au, 60.0 g/t Ag and 0.94% Cu over 3.87 meters, including 14.98 g/t Au, 78.5 g/t Ag, 0.53% Cu over 1.40 metres
These drill holes were part of a series of holes to test the Boulder structure at depth (> 200 metres from surface) and along strike to the west beyond the current (2021) resource model.
DM-22-280 intersected typical quartz-carbonate vein material within altered tuffs, mineralized with mainly pyrite and lesser chalcopyrite, sphalerite and galena at a drill depth of 226.00 to 229.55 metres grading
8.68 g/t Au, 68.4 g/t Ag and 0.27% Cu over 3.55 meters including 24.40 g/t Au, 158.0 g.t Ag, 0.50% Cu over 0.60 metres
. The vein orientation appears to be steeper in this area - greater than 70° to the south.
DM-22-283 intersected two wide mineralized quartz-carbonate veins and strong clay-sericite altered zones, with the upper zone from 307.00 to 316.00 metres returning 3.69 g/t Au, 28.2 g/t Ag, and 0.43% Cu over 9.00 metres, including a higher grade core of
7.28 g/t Au, 60.0 g/t Ag and 0.94% Cu over 3.87 meters
. The lower zone was drilled from 349.30 to 364.45 metres, returning 1.97 g/t Au, 38.5 g/t Ag and 0.39% Cu over 15.15 metres, including
4.30 g/t Au, 80.0 g/t Ag, and 0.79% Cu over 4.27 metres
. The lower zone also included a short interval (0.43m) of massive sulphides.

QUALITY ASSURANCE AND CONTROL
Core selected for sampling was cut in half with a core saw or split with a hydraulic splitter with one half bagged for shipping. Strict chain of custody storing, and shipping protocol was maintained. All core preparation and analyses were completed by Activation Laboratories Ltd. located in Kamloops, BC. Core was crushed, split, and pulverized with 250 grams passing 200 mesh. Each sample was analyzed for gold by fire assay with ICP-OES finish (Act Labs Code 1A2-ICP) and for multi-elements by 4-acid total digestion ICP with OES finish.(Act Labs Code 1F2) Any gold overlimits (>30 ppm Au) were analyzed by gravimetric fire assay. Standards and blanks were inserted by Company staff. The drilling and sampling program was undertaken by Company personnel and under the direction of Ted Vanderwart,
P.Geo.
