By: Newsfile

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 26, 2021) - K9 Gold Corp. (TSXV: KNC) (OTC Pink: WDFCF) (FSE: 5GP) ("K9" or the "Company") has joined and is one of the founding member companies of the Newfoundland.Gold strategic alliance group.

Newfoundland.Gold is a strategic marketing alliance of Newfoundland-focused precious metals companies collectively committed to bringing awareness to an exciting emerging gold district. The alliance, known as Newfoundland.Gold, is focused on creating innovative capital attraction initiatives to promote Newfoundland and the member companies.

Newfoundland.Gold will host its launch event, virtual investor days, June 1 to June 3, 2021, on-line. This on-line event will include corporate presentations from member companies moderated by industry thought leaders and will feature keynote speakers daily. Registration for the virtual investor days will open in May.

Newfoundland is experiencing a modern-day gold rush and is a top-ranked exploration and mining jurisdiction.

Mining is one of Newfoundland and Labrador's largest and oldest industries and a major contributor to the economy of the province. Known for its strategic location for international transportation and a strong fishing industry, Newfoundland's mining history dates back centuries.

The founding member companies

Newfoundland.Gold is a strategic marketing alliance established by leaders in Newfoundland and Labrador's gold exploration and mining sector. The alliance is open to all companies operating projects in Newfoundland and Labrador. The founding members are:

  • New Found Gold Corp.;
  • Exploits Discovery Corp.;
  • Labrador Gold Corp.;
  • K9 Gold Corp.;
  • Leocor Gold Inc.;
  • C2C Gold Corp.;
  • Opawica Explorations Inc.;
  • Sky Gold Corp.

About Newfoundland.Gold

Newfoundland.Gold is a strategic marketing alliance comprising gold exploration and mining companies focused on the advancement of the mineral sector in Canada's Newfoundland. Collectively, these industry leaders are committed to bringing awareness to an exciting and supportive jurisdiction while generating shareholder value through responsible and innovative exploration and development.

Newfoundland.Gold is a member of a collective marketing alliance, NLMines, focused on bringing awareness to the collective exploration and mining industry in Canada's Newfoundland and Labrador. Newfoundland.Gold and NLMInes are open to all exploration and mining companies that have a primary focus on exploration or mining activities in Newfoundland.

K9 Gold acknowledges the financial support of the Stony Lake project by the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador, through the Department of Industry, Energy and Technology Junior Exploration Assistance Program.

About Stony Lake Project

The Stony Lake project lies within the Cape Ray/Valentine Lake structural trend in Central Newfoundland, lying parallel to that of New Found Gold's Queensway project, along the prolific Dog Bay Line. The project covers 13,625 ha and 27 kilometers of favorable trend between Sokoman's Moosehead discovery to the northeast and Marathon's Valentine Lake deposit to the southwest.

At Stony Lake, large areas of significant gold mineralization occur primarily in altered Botwood sediments and quartz-feldspar porphyry intrusives associated with intense silicification, sericite-chlorite-carbonate alteration and a strong pyrite-arsenopyrite mineralogical association. These features indicate epizonal/mesozonal temperatures for the hydrothermal fluids and support the exploration model of hydrothermal fluids leaking upwards into the Botwood sediments from a deeper igneous intrusive source. This area is now referred to as the Exploits Subzone gold district which essentially covers the Silurian-age clastic sediments surrounding the Mount Peyton intrusive.

Prior to the 2020 field season, airborne geophysical coverage, with follow-up ground prospecting and sampling, has led to the identification of eight area of highly anomalous to high grade gold mineralization. The gold mineralization is hosted in a variety of environments, including quartz-feldspar porphyries, reduced sandstones, quartz stockworks and quartz veins. The property hosts both widespread low grade mineralization (up to 4.0 g/t Au) within the Botwood Formation and high grade veins (>4.0 g/t Au) in the basement rocks below the Botwood, similar to the nearby New Found Gold Queensway project, and the immediately adjacent Sokoman Minerals Moosehead discovery.

On-going interpretive work on the Stony Lake property has yielded several direct comparisons with the Sokoman Minerals Corp Moosehead discovery, immediately to the northeast of Stony Lake's Jumper's Pond area (note - this area was previously named "Flyers Grid," and since significant portions of the historic Flyers Grid lie off K9's property, K9 has renamed the area to avoid confusion).

Published information on the Moosehead discovery indicates that the mineralization is spatially related to reworking of a major basement structure which is likely the main pathway for the mineralizing fluids. The spatial association of the faulting with mafic intrusives appears to be highly significant. The Moosehead mineralization is hosted by N to NW trending and east dipping faults, which appear to be related to meso-scale anticlinal folding. These types of mineralizing systems typically have great lateral and depth extents (measured in kilometers).

Recent (2019) and historic (2001) geophysical work on the Jumper's Pond area strongly suggests the presence of a large fold structure that plunges to the NE towards Moosehead, as well as several NW-trending structural features. The presence of mafic rocks is also indicated for this area. The major fault structure related to the Mooseheads discovery can clearly be traced by regional magnetics for 5 - 6 km onto the Stony Lake property. These similarities increase K9's confidence in the prospectivity of the Jumper's Pond area.
