PROJECT 81 EXPLORATION UPDATE DARGAVEL GOLD TARGET DRILLING RESULTS
Noble Mineral Exploration Inc. has provided an update on the 2020 diamond drilling campaign on Project 81- Dargavel gold trend. NOB completed 6 NQ size diamond drill hole totalling 1390.5m resulting in 822 core samples (Table 1) being sent to Activation Laboratories Ltd (Actlabs) in Timmins, Ontario for Au, Ag, Pt, Pd and 32 element ICP analysis. The late release of these results was all due to the late receipt of the final results from Actlabs.
The objective of the drilling campaign was to duplicate and expand on gold, platinum and palladium results published in historical drill hole (25013) drilled in the 1960 by CANICO and drill hole (K84-03) drilled the 1980’s by Chevron Canada Resources Ltd. The 2020 program found anomalous Au values but not with the same widths or grade as the historical. Uncertainty on the precise location of the historical drilling may be at fault. However, the program established that the Dargavel Gold Trend might be much larger and continuous than originally thought. (Tables 2 & 3).

3D geological modelling and 3D magnetic inversion studies have indicated that the mineralization to the SE of drill holes DAR 20-01 to DAR 20-03 is very prospective and that the current drill holes need to be deepened.
DAR 20-01 returned 0.73g/t Au over 3.05m in a semi-massive sulphide, hosted by an altered tuffaceous unit.
DAR 20-03 returned 0.64 g/t Au over 4.10m, including 1.45g/t Au over 1.5m in a brecciated tuffaceous unit.
DAR 20-05 which returned 0.67g/t Au over 18.0m and a combined 3.65g/t Au+Pt+Pd over 1.5m in a sulphide rich, altered mafic intrusive unit, and is a completely new discovery that targeted an interpreted fold nose previously not tested. This discovery ties in the historical mineralization to the NW to that in the SE.
DAR 20-06 which returned 0.52g/t Au over 19.8m, and 2.41g/t Au over 1.5m in a tuffaceous unit ended in mineralization and NOB believes that this hole needs to be deepened. NOB also believes that this was the top of a larger gold mineralized alteration zone.
