NV GOLD CORPORATION OUTLINES ITS PLANNED 2023 DRILL
PRIORITIES AND EXPLORATION ACTIVITIES
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 25, 2023 / NV Gold
Corporation (TSXV:NVX)(OTCQB:NVGLF)(FSE:8NV) (“ NV Gold ” or the
“Company ”) is pleased to provide an exploration activity update for 202 3,
outlining its highest drill priorities and early-stage project evaluation . Of the
Company’s seven active projects in Nevada, NV Gold intends to prioritize three
projects : (1) SW Pipe Gold Project (“ SW Pipe ”); (2) Slumber Gold Project
(“Slumber ”); and (3) Triple T Gold Project (“ Triple T ”), subject to capital
availability . In addition, the Company plans an intensive “boots on the ground ”
exploration campaign to evaluate over 30 new potentially prospective areas
generated through its Data Library Project , a collaborative exercise conducted
with GoldSpot Discoveries Corp. (“GoldSpot ”), and recent land acquisitions ,
such as the Gold Bell and Teton projects in the Bell Mining Distr ict in Nevada.
Drilling Priorities:
1. SW Pipe Gold Project:
SW Pipe is located in Lander County , approximately 6 km (3.7 miles) southwest
of the world -class Pipeline gold mine in the central Cortez gold belt of north -
central Nevada. SW Pipe is comprised of 84 unpatented mining claims and is
100%-owned by NV Gold. Historical drilling established a nea r-surface, oxide -
gold zone characterized by multiple intercepts of 15 m+ @ 0.5 -1.0 g/t Au (see
Company’s press releases dated releases October 26, 2022, and December
14, 2022 ). After the evaluation and analyses of two extensive geochemi cal
surveys (see Company’s press releases Oct ober 26, 2022, and December 1 4,
2022), the Company recently submitted a notice of intent to drill -test a
potentially multi -million -ounce Carlin-type gold deposit on the SW Pipe project
in Q1 of 2023 ( see Figure s 2 & 3) 1.
2. Slumber Gold Project:
Slumber is located approximately 80.5 kilometers (50 miles) northwest of
Winnemucca, and 36 kilometers (22.4 miles) west of the Sleeper Gold Deposit
in Humboldt County, Nevada . The property, comprising 82 unpatented mining
claims, is 100% -owned by NV Gold. In Q1 2022, t he Company conducted a
Phase 3 drilling campaign and completed 12 reverse circulation (“ RC”) holes
totaling 2,350 meters (7,710 feet). The current target is an untested, wide -open

has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource. It is uncertain if further exploration will result
in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.

zone of resistivity in the northern extent of the property. The 2023 drill program
is scheduled to commence in Q2, subject to capital availability, and consists of
3-6 RC holes to test for a potentially a “sleeper-type” gold deposit.
3. Triple T Gold Project:
Triple T is located in the Humboldt Range , 9 kilometers (5.6 miles) east of the
Rochester silver -gold operation and 42 kilometers (26.1 miles) southeast of the
Florida Canyon gold mine. The Triple T p roperty, comprising 41 unpatented
mining claims, is 100% -owned by NV Gold. The Company has received
approval of the Triple T Notice of Intent (NOI) for 10 additional RC holes and
commencement of drilling is projected for Q2 2023, subject to capital
availability.
Additionally, the Company hopes to add 5 -7 new greenfield exploration projects
into its project pipeline in 2023 through a detailed analysis of over 30 targets
identified by its Data Library Project conducted in collaboration with GoldSpot
in 2022. The Com pany will also evaluate several of its most prospective early -
stage properties that are already in its portfolio.
About the Data Library Project :
NV Gold’s Data Library consists of multiple data compilations, covering Nevada
and elsewhere, including extensive proprietary exploration files created by
AngloGold, USMX, Canyon Resources and others. Multiple significant regional
geological, geochemical, and geophysical exploration programs generated this
data, compris ing over 40 years of effort, and at a historical cost of more than
US$20 million (refer to press release August 11 , 2022). GoldSpot handled the
legacy data inventory and identified 31 targets using its proprietary AI
technology, which will be field-evaluated in Q1 and Q2 of 2023.
About the Gold Bell and Teton Projects:
NV Gold’s previously-acquired Gold Bell and Teton projects are located in the Bell
Mining District (Walker Lane), in the immediate neighborhood to Fortitude Gold
Corp.’s Golden Mile property in Mineral County, Nevada (see Figure 4). The
Golden Mile District is characterized by intrusion-related gold-copper exo- and
endoskarn associated with massive replacements of carbonate rocks and shear
hosted gold. Historical drill intercepts were reported in the mul tiple grams up to
ounces per ton gold range s. The Teton project , with potential for near -surface,
oxide-gold mineralization, underwent some limited drilling in the 1980s (assays are
unknown); while the Gold Bell property, a potential extension of the known Golden
Mile high-grade gold mineralization, has never been drill-tested. Evaluation of the
Gold Bell and Teton properties will go hand in hand with evaluating the GoldSpot
targets in Q1 and Q2 of 2023.
Thomas Klein, VP Exploration stated, “I am excited to enter the new year
seeing the gold price rising again and to get started with a new drilling
campaign , beginning with our SW Pipe project in Q1, which will be followed by
drilling our Slumber and Triple T projects after its successful completion. SW
Pipe has prominently -defined geochemistry anomalies suggesting it has the
potential to host a Carlin -type gold system at de pth. In addition, the Company
3
did its homework by generating multiple new discovery -opportunities through
the data Library Project and through continuous land acquisitions. The
Company holds strategic land positions throughout the state and is well
positioned to kick -off 2023 by making the next multi -million -ounce gold
discovery in Nevada”.
