/CNW/ -
Eminent Gold Corp.
(TSXV: EMNT) (OTCQB: EMGDF)
(the "
Company
" or "
Eminent
") is pleased to announce that it has begun a geophysics survey at its
Meadow Canyon target (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2) after receiving approval from the U.S. National Forest
Service ("USFS"). Additionally, positive results from several infill soil samples further support the
concept of a buried mineralizing system at Meadow Canyon. A geophysical program designed to
reveal the architecture of obscured faults to determine the structure's potential to host gold
mineralization has launched with results expected before year end.
Paul Sun
, President and CEO of the Company commented:
"The geophysics at Meadow Canyon will be a key step in determining the strength of our thesis that
we could have a potential epithermal system analogous to the 23 Moz Round Mountain mine
1,2
13km
away on the other side of the mountain range. We look forward to working with the USFS personnel
through our Plan of Operations and continue to maintain our stewardship to the environment we work
in."
The Company received an approved Notice of Intent ("NOI") from the positive Record of
Decision from the USFS to proceed with a geophysical survey at Meadow Canyon. This
decision establishes a positive working relationship with the Forest Service in this district and
bodes well for future permitting of the Plan of Operations.
Eminent's geophysical survey will cover 5.6 square kilometers at Meadow Canyon. Results of
this survey will provide data the Technical Team needs to move forward with development of
drill targets and the associated Plan of Operations for the Project.
Infill soil tests surrounding an earlier gold anomaly (see
April 27, 2022
News Release) bolster
the concept of a buried gold system at Meadow Canyon.
Dan McCoy
, Chief Geologist and Director commented:
"The Meadow Canyon target has the potential to develop into a new major gold target in
Nevada
.
Early discrete indications through geochemistry results on surface and its proximity to the
Round
Mountain
mine indicate the potential for an obscured mineralized gold system to be present. The
geophysics will be the remaining study required to identify drill targets prior to completion of the Plan
of Operations and drilling."

exploration plans for the Spanish Moon property, the Company's expectations for the potential of
the Spanish Moon property, the Company's plans for generating drill targets based on current
information and the generation of information from the proposed geophysical survey. Although
Eminent Gold Corp. believes the expectations expressed in such forward-looking statements are
based on reasonable assumptions, including the assumption that records and reports of historical
work on the Spanish Moon property are accurate and correct and that the sampling results are
indicative of the target areas as a whole, such statements are not guarantees of future
performance, are subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results or realities may differ
materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Such material risks and uncertainties

under its property agreements going forward, to maintain its mineral tenures and concessions in
good standing, the Company's assumptions may prove incorrect; changes in economic conditions
or financial markets; the inherent hazards associated with mineral exploration and mining
operations, future prices of gold, silver and other metals, changes in general economic conditions,
accuracy of mineral resource and reserve estimates, the ability of the Company to obtain the
necessary permits and consents required to explore, drill and develop the Company's projects and
if obtained, to obtain such permits and consents in a timely fashion relative to the Company's plans
and business objectives for the projects; the general ability of the Company to monetize its mineral
resources; adverse weather conditions may affect the Company's ability to conduct work programs,
availability of qualified personnel, changes in environmental and other laws or regulations that
could have an impact on the Company's operations, compliance with environmental laws and
