ENDURANCE REPORTS ADDITIONAL DRILL INTERSECTIONS FROM EAGLE AND CROWN ZONES
5.80 GPT GOLD OVER 23.0 METRES INCLUDES 8.52 GPT GOLD OVER 12.7 M
Endurance Gold Corporation (EDG – TSX.V; ENDGF – OTC Pink; 3EG – Berlin Open Market) (the “Company”) is pleased
to announce the final set of 2023 drilling results from the Eagle and Crown Zones at its Reliance Gold Project (the
“Property”). The Property is road accessible and located 4 kilometres (“km”) east of the village of Gold Bridge, and 10
km north of the historic Bralorne-Pioneer Gold Mining Camp which has produced over 4 million ounces of gold.
As previously reported, the 2023 diamond drilling program was completed with 5,301 m in 22 drill holes. The results
for the final seven holes of the season are reported herein. Highlights include:
• DDH23-076 returned 5.80 gpt gold over 23.0 metres (“m”), including 8.52 gpt gold over 12.7 m from
the Eagle Zone
• DDH23-078 returned five (5) significant vein intercepts from the Crown Zone. All veins returned high-
grade gold and one vein displayed Visible Gold (“VG”).
o 8.05 gpt gold over 1.4 m
o 9.67 gpt gold over 1.2 m (*VG)
o 5.80 gpt gold over 2.1 m
o 9.46 gpt gold over 2.0 m
o 6.56 gpt gold over 2.5m.
“We are pleased to see that drill testing of the Eagle Zone continues to deliver high quality wide drill intersections and
remains open at depth and to the south, 550 m from todays best reported intersection.” stated Robert T. Boyd CEO of
Endurance Gold Corporation “The cluster of visible gold specks in the Crown drill intercept also provides encouragement
about the evolving potential at depth at Reliance.”
DDH23-076 was drilled from the Eagle 1 outcrop exposure to collect a wide-diameter HQ drill core intercept of near-
surface Eagle Zone mineralization which had previously been tested and intersected by reverse circulation (“ RC”)
drilling. DDH23-076 successfully intersected the mineralized horizon starting at a downhole depth of 9.3 m. The hole
returned 5.80 gpt gold over 23.0 m which included a 6.5 m altered but unmineralized feldspar dyke. The margins on
either side of the dyke returned 8.52 gpt gold over 12.7 m, and 6.49 gpt gold over 3.6 m, respectively. Core hole
DDH23-076 is a 10-metre step-out from RC hole RC20-016 that returned 6.2 gpt gold over 13.7 m (February 2, 2021).
DDH23-078 was drilled from the same Eagle 1 drill pad with a modified azimuth and dip in order to test below the
Crown target and target area extensions of drill results reported in DDH23 -071 (reported September 5, 2023 ). The
drill hole successfully intersected multiple veins below the Crown outcrop showing. The Crown target has amongst
the strongest gold -in-soil anomaly identified to date but previous outcrop sampling has failed to explain this soil
anomaly. Core hole DDH23-078 intersected twelve (12) gold-bearing quartz-carbonate veins ranging from 40 cm to
2.9 m drill lengths that are down-dip of the Eagle Zone. Five (5) of the veins returned reportable gold intercepts (see
Table 1) and one of the veins returned a 5 mm cluster of Visible Gold specks.
About 550 m to the south, DDH23-074 and DDH23-075 were drilled to test the deeper and southern extent of the
Eagle South Zone. They were aggressive 100 m step-outs from previous drilling (see longitudinal section Figure 2) and
were the last holes initiated in Eagle prior to drilling being halted due to the wildfire evacuation. DDH23-074 returned
1.36 gpt gold over 7.0 m, and 4.7 gpt gold over 2.2 m starting at 213.9 m depth. DDH23-075 returned 2.51 gpt gold
over 2.7 m , starting at 256.5 m depth. Both holes intersected gold mineralization associated with encouraging
structure and alteration down-dip from the Eagle Zone and indicate the Eagle Zone remains open at depth and to the
southeast. The remaining Eagle Zone deep extension targets between DDH23-074 and the Crown area, and testing of
the undrilled gap between Eagle and Imperial could not be completed due to the wildfire evacuation and will be tested
in the 2024 field season.
Drill holes DDH23-077 to DDH23-080 were collared at the Eagle 1 and Eagle 2 outcrops. These holes experienced HQ
drill core recovery problems due to surface weathering and oxidation of the near-surface Eagle Zone horizon and thus,
despite some encouraging gold assays, failed to produce sufficient drill core to provide a professionally reportable drill
intersection within the initial 40 m drilled in these holes. Three of these holes were abandoned at around this depth.
DDH23-078 also had poor recovery, but was extended at depth through the poor recovery area to test the Crown
target with encouraging results as reported above. These near surface “infill” HQ diamond drill holes will be redone in
the 2024 season with a modified core recovery technique to achieve higher core recovery. Previously reported and
encouraging RC and channel sampling results remain valid for the Eagle 1 and Eagle 2 outcrops as those sampling
techniques returned 100% recovery.
Results from 2023 diamond drilling at the Eagle and Crown Zones are summarized on Table 1 and the reported and
highlight intersections are shown on the Royal Shear plan map in Figure 1, the Royal Shear longitudinal section in Figure
2, and the Eagle-Crown cross section in Figure 3. A summary of the best 25 drill holes with intersections exceeding 50
gram x metre from the 82 drill holes completed to date are shown on Table 2. A complete tabulation of prior diamond
drill hole results for 2021 through 2022, and 2023 is available on the Company website. Additional updates, including
the 2023 Olympic area exploration activity and plans for the 2024 drill season program remain to be reported in the
coming weeks.

Diamond drill core was logged and evaluated on the Property and samples designated for collection under the supervision of a geologist at the property. Drilling
was completed with NQ size tools capable of collecting 4.76 centimetre diameter core. NQ drill core was cut using a diamond saw with one half of the core sent for
analysis and the remaining kept for future studies. All drill core samples have been submitted to ALS Global in North Vancouver, BC, an ISO/IEC 17025:2017
accredited laboratory, where they are crushed to 70% <2 mm then up to 250 gram pulverized to <75 microns. Samples are then su bmitted for four-acid digestion
and analyzed for 48 element ICP-MS (ME-MS61) and gold 30g FA ICP-AES finish (AU-ICP21). Over limit samples returning greater than 10 parts per million (“ppm”)
gold are re-analyzed by Au-GRA21 methodology and over limit antimony returning greater than 10,000 ppm Sb are re-analyzed by Sb-AA08 methodology. Endurance
Gold monitors QA/QC by inserting blanks, certified standards and pulp duplicates into the sample stream. The work program is supervised by Darren O’Brien,
P.Geo., Vice President Exploration for the Company and the qualified person as defined in National Instrument 43-101. Mr. O’Brien has reviewed and approved this
