NEWS RELEASE FG: TSX-V
FALCON COMMENCES EXPLORATION ON WABUNK BAY PROPERTY,
RED LAKE ONTARIO
Vancouver, B.C., August 22, 2019. FALCON GOLD CORP. (FG: TSX-V) (“Falcon” or the “Company”) reports
it has commenced an exploration sampling program on its Wabunk Bay gold and base metal property
located in the Red Lake District of northwestern Ontario.
The claims cover an area of approximately 304 hectares and are contained within the Birch -Uchi-
Confederation Lakes greenstone belt which hosts the world-renowned Red Lake gold deposits as well as
Great Bear Resources’ (GBR:V) Dixie project. The Wabunk property appears to be hosted within a similar
geological structure to the Dixie lake project.
Several small gold mines were developed in th is greenstone belt during the 1930s , including the Uchi
Mine, which produced 114,000 ounces of gold . The Red Lake mining district has produced over
30,000,000 ounces of gold and is one of the premier mining districts in Canada, benefitting from major
active mining operations including the Red Lake Gold Mine of Goldcorp Inc.
The objective of this initial program is to follow-up on historical trenching and drilling activity and entails
prospecting and sampling showings t hat historically have produced encouraging surface and drill core
assay values. General prospecting and sampling of the favourable geological host rock will be initiated and
traced away from the mineralized trenches.
The property has potential for gold in the greenstone volcanic rocks which host the past producing Uchi
Mine located approximately 2 km to the west; and base metals with anomalous cobalt and precious
metals found with copper and nickel mineralization in the gabbro. The correlation between the base metal
mineralization and previously completed airborne magnetics will also be evaluated during the site visit.
The Wabunk area was covered by an airborne geophysical survey completed by a previous operator in
2003 that identified two magnetic and conductive anomalies.
