Anaconda Mining Continues to Successfully Infill at Stog'er Tight, Intersecting 8.46 G/T Gold Over 5.0 Metres and 7.91 G/T Gold Over 6.0 Metres

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / April 20, 2021 / Anaconda Mining Inc. ("Anaconda" or the "Company") (TSX:ANX)(OTCQX:ANXGF) is pleased to announce results from a 1,271 metre infill drill program at Stog'er Tight (BN-21-428 to -433 and BN-21-442 to -454) (the "Infill Drill Program") (Exhibit A). The Infill Drill Program was primarily focused on the Camp Pond area of the Stog'er Tight Deposit, located three kilometres from the Pine Cove Mill and Tailings Facility, where the Company took advantage of winter conditions by drilling from the ice. The results of the Infill Drill Program are consistent with results from previous drill programs at Camp Pond and will be used to finalize geological and resource modelling of this portion of the Stog'er Tight Deposit.

Highlights of the Drill Program include:

  • 8.46 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold over 5.0 metres (41.0 to 46.0 metres), including 34.00 g/t gold over 1.0 metre in diamond drill hole BN-21-429;
  • 7.91 g/t gold over 6.0 metres (89.0 to 95.0 metres), including 20.30 g/t gold over 1.0 metre in diamond drill hole BN-21-447;
  • 9.26 g/t gold over 3.0 metres (6.0 to 9.0 metres), including 27.00 g/t gold over 1.0 metre in diamond drill hole BN-21-449;
  • 3.11 g/t gold over 4.0 metres (12.0 to 16.0 metres) in diamond drill hole BN-21-428; and
  • 0.87 g/t gold over 6.0 metres (5.0 to 11.0 metres) in diamond drill hole BN-21-454.

Selected intersections from the Infill Drill Program at Stog'er Tight are shown in Table 1 below.

"We continue to be encouraged by drill results at Stog'er Tight, both from infill and expansion drilling. The results from this infill drill program in the Camp Pond area, in combination with other recent Stog'er Tight drill results, will enable us to update our internal pit designs and associated resource estimates for the Stog'er Tight Deposit. This information will allow us to plan any further drilling that is required to finalize the mineral resource and will help identify other areas of opportunity adjacent to the deposit in anticipation of a potential development scenario at Stog'er Tight."

~ Kevin Bullock, President and CEO, Anaconda Mining Inc.

Included within the results reported here, the Company also completed eight diamond drill holes to the east and south east of the deposit to test discrete geophysical anomalies outside of the known extents of the Deposit (BN-21-434 to -441). These holes did not intersect significant mineralization.

Preliminary environmental studies have been initiated at the expanded Stog'er Tight Deposit, including environmental baseline work associated with Camp Pond, which is anticipated to be impacted by potential development west of the Stog'er Tight Mine. Fox Pond, located east of Camp Pond, was similarly underlain by the Stog'er Tight Deposit which was successfully mined in 2018 and 2019 by partial dewatering of the pond under appropriate Provincial and Federal Government authorizations.

Footnotes:

1 - Diamond drill holes BN-21-428 to -454 were drilled consecutively. Any drill hole numbers not shown in the table above have no significant assays.
2 - Interval expressed as core length only; true thickness is estimated to be 80-100% of interval length due to local drilling conditions that does not always allow for drilling orthogonally to the apparent dip of mineralization.

About Stog'er Tight
The Stog'er Tight Deposit, located three (3) kilometres east of the Pine Cove Mill, adjacent to existing road networks, has been defined over a strike length of 1,250 metres to date. Anaconda produced a total of 17,102 ounces of gold from 349,942 tonnes of ore from the Stog'er Tight Mine between June 2018 and January 2020. Gold from Stog'er Tight was recovered through the Pine Cove Mill with an average head grade of 1.75 g/t gold at an overall recovery of approximately 87%. Anaconda is currently assessing the potential for expanding the Stog'er Tight Deposit and developing additional resources.
