Tyro Main Zone Drill Campaign At The Gold Chain Project

VANCOUVER - West Point Gold Corp. reported additional drill results from its recently completed 1,264m (8 hole) diamond drill campaign focused on the Tyro Main Zone, at its Gold Chain Project in Arizona. Hole GC24-34 intersected 42.80m of 2.50 g/t Au, including 11.70m of 5.94 g/t Au, returning mineralization from surface. Hole GC24-34 is located approximately 700 metres northeast along the Tyro Main Zone structure from GC23-28 (link). Hole GC24-32 intersected a hanging wall zone of mineralization for 6.94m of 4.3 g/t Au including 1.44m of 15.24 g/t Au from 16.31m. Hole GC24-32 intersected a footwall wall zone of 16.08m of 1.35 g/t Au from 49.07m. Infill sampling of approximately 24 metres is underway.

The Company believes that these results are consistent with previous estimates of size potential at the Tyro Main Zone. Infill sampling on holes GC24-30, GC24-31, and GC24-32 have the potential to increase the width of the Tyro Main zone. The Company is preparing for the next phase of drilling at Tyro, expected to start in February 2025.

"We are excited by the material increase in grade and width at the north end of the Tyro Main Zone as evidenced by hole GC24-34 and plan to place additional focus on this area during the upcoming drill program," stated CEO, Quentin Mai. "As the correlation of mineralization between hanging wall and footwall improves, we anticipate the additional samples sent to the lab around the hanging wall could expand the mineralized zone."
