Program – Junior Exploration Assistance as a contribution to our successful 2024 exploration program (see

About Labrador Gold
Labrador Gold is a Canadian based mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition and exploration
of prospective gold projects in Eastern Canada. The Company has approximately $18.1 million in cash.
The Hopedale property covers much of the Archean-age Florence Lake greenstone belt that stretches over
60 km. The belt is typical of greenstone belts around the world but has been underexplored by comparison.
Work to date by Labrador Gold show gold anomalies in rocks, soils and lake sediments over a 3 kilometre
section of the northern portion of the Florence Lake greenstone belt. F ive gold occurrences lie along this
trend, four of which Thurber Boundary, Thurber North, TD500 and Thurber South were discovered by
LabGold. Anomalous gold in soil and lake sediment samples also occur over approximately 40 km along the
southern section of the greenstone belt. LabGold’s recent exploration has also demonstrated the potential
for the critical metals copper, nickel and cobalt in the belt.
The Borden Lake project near Chapleau, Ontario lies immediately southeast of Newmont Corporation’s
Borden gold mine currently being acquired by Discovery Silver Corp. LabGold’s past exploration on the
property identified two anomalous zones based on geoche mistry, including up to 48 gold grains in till
samples, and geophysics, one in the north extending over 1.3km northwest -southeast and another in the
south extending over 1km north-south.
The Company has 170,009,979 common shares issued and outstanding and trades on the TSX Venture
Exchange under the symbol LAB.
