G2 Goldfields Inc. (“
G2” or
the “
Company”) (TSXV: GTWO; OTCQX:
GUYGF) announces additional high grade gold intercepts from
the Company’s ongoing drill program at the 19,200-acre OKO Project,
Guyana. G2 currently has five diamond drill rigs operating on the
project. Highlights from the current round of exploration results
include:
|
g/t Au |
over |
8.9 m |
(HOLE 180) |
AND 1275.1 |
g/t Au |
over |
0.8 m |

5.7 m |
(HOLE 181W2) |

g/t Au |
over |
4.0 m |
(HOLE 181W2A) |
|
|

|
g/t Au |
over |
6.2 m |
(HOLE 182) |
AND 14.4 |
g/t Au |
over |
3.6 m |
|
The intercepts reported are down-hole widths.
True widths are estimated between 58% and 91% of reported down-hole
widths. Weighted average grades are calculated based on un-capped
gold assays, as insufficient drilling has been completed to
determine capping limits for gold assays.
A complete table of results is available at the following link
https://g2goldfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/G2_OMZ_DrillResults_Dec2023.pdf.
The results reported herein provide G2 with further confidence
in the continuity of gold mineralisation whilst expanding the
mineralized zones down plunge.
Shear 3 Drill Intercepts
High grade gold zones in the Shear 3 structure appear to be
hosted in distinct upper and lower zones. The Upper Zone was
further defined by hole OKD-180 which intercepted 13.0 g/t
Au over 8.9 m followed by an extensional quartz vein a
further 6.6 m downhole which assayed 1275.1 g/t Au over 0.8
m (40.8 ounces per ton over 2.6
feet). Hole 182 expanded this Upper High-grade Zone a
further 70 m down-plunge and returned 14.4 g/t Au over 3.6
metres.
Hole OKD-181W2 expanded the Lower Zone Area of Shear 3 by
intercepting 53.1 g/t Au over 5.7m (from 345.6 m
downhole). This high-grade structure lies 65 m down-plunge of Hole
121 (12.7 g/t Au over 6.0 m). All of the Shear 3
zones remain open to depth. A long section of Shear 3 is available
here.
Shear 5 Extensions to Depth
In Shear 5, OKD-181W2A intercepted 4.0m @ 36.8 g/t
Au from 508m. This intercept lies 50 metres down-plunge
from hole OKD-178 which returned 32 g/t Au
over 6.7m (see press release dated September 11,
2023). The lower part (below 225 metres) of the Shear 5 high grade
zone is now defined by 15 pierce points of which nine exceed 100
gram x metres of which two exceed 200 gram x metres. Shear 5
remains open to depth and represents an outstanding target for
additional high-grade gold. Long sections of the Shear 5 drilling
to date are available here.
Shear 1 Zone Drilling
In addition to high grade intercepts in Shear 3, hole OKD-182
also intercepted Shear 1 at a downhole depth of 88.1m. This near
surface zone assayed 5.6 g/t Au over 6.2 metres.
Shear 1, omitted from the original maiden resource estimate due to
lack of data is now the subject of an ongoing drilling campaign
targeting NE plunging shoots. The Shear 1 Zone appears to be
geologically similar to the Ghanie area, located approximately 1 km
to the South. A long section of Shear 1 is available here.
Greenfields Exploration Update
Soil and stream sampling programs have been completed across
both the Tracy and Amsterdam Zones. Scout drilling has commenced at
the OKO North and OKO Northwest areas. Dan Noone, CEO, stated, “We
continue to explore the OKO district with five drill rigs and
multiple exploration teams. As we increase our knowledge and
understanding of the district, we also increase the probability of
additional exploration success. We look forward to publishing a
new, updated Resource Estimate in early 2024 and also to drilling
multiple new target areas in the coming months.”
QA/QC
Drill core is logged and sampled in a secure core storage
facility located on the OKO project site, Guyana. Core samples from
the program are cut in half, using a diamond cutting saw, and are
sent to MSALABS Guyana, in Georgetown, Guyana, which is an
accredited mineral analysis laboratory, for analysis. Samples from
sections of core with obvious gold mineralisation are analysed for
total gold using an industry-standard 500g metallic screen fire
assay (MSALABS method MSC 550). All other samples are analysed for
gold using standard Fire Assay-AA with atomic absorption finish
(MSALABS method; FAS-121). Samples returning over 10.0 g/t gold are
analysed utilizing standard fire assay gravimetric methods (MSALABS
method; FAS-425). Certified gold reference standards, blanks, and
field duplicates are routinely inserted into the sample stream, as
part of G2 Goldfield’s quality control/quality assurance program
(QAQC). No QA/QC issues were noted with the results reported
herein.

of gold in Guyana as well as the financing and development of the
Aurora Gold Mine, Guyana’s largest gold mine. G2 recently announced
its maiden mineral resource estimate on the newly discovered Oko
property in Guyana (see press release dated April 25, 2022), and
has recently filed on SEDAR an independent technical report
entitled “NI 43-101 Technical Report and Mineral Resource Estimate
for the Oko Gold property, Cooperative Republic of Guyana, South
America”, with an effective date of April 14, 2022.
Highlights of the report include:
- 974,000 oz. Au –
Inferred Mineral Resource contained within 3,274,000 tonnes @ 9.25
g/t Au; and
- 220,000 oz. Au –
Indicated Mineral Resource contained within 793,000 tonnes @ 8.63
g/t Au.
Significantly, all of the maiden mineral resources lie within
350 meters of surface and remain open down plunge. G2 continues to
expand this maiden resource while discovering additional areas for
