CALGARY, ALBERTA – TheNewswire - September 8, 2022 – San Lorenzo Gold Corp. (“San Lorenzo” or the “Corporation”)  (TSXV:SLG), (OTC:SNLGF) is pleased to provide a further update regarding the recently completed diamond drilling program on its flagship Salvadora property in Chile.

 

The 10-hole program involved 4,091 meters of diamond drilling.  All 10 of the new holes cut copper-gold-silver +/- molybdenum mineralization.

 

The 100% owned Salvadora property encompasses 8,796 ha.  A significant expansion to the previous Induced Polarity (“IP”) program was carried out by San Lorenzo just before the recent drilling program commenced.  The IP surveys conducted to date outline at least four zones of interest on the Salvadora property. Two of those zones were the subject of the recent drilling program - the Caballo Muerto Zone and the Arco de Oro Zone.

 The significant mineralization encountered in all the 10 holes drilled is very encouraging as it demonstrates to management of San Lorenzo that IP surveys are a viable tool in identifying mineralized alteration systems at Salvadora.

Caballo Muerto Zone (“CMZ”)

Seven (7) holes were drilled on the CMZ in the recent drilling program.  Each hole cut visible porphyry style alteration with gold- copper- silver and molybdenum mineralization covering an area of 2+ square kilometers and vertical depth of over 500m.   IP surveys to date over the CMZ indicate that the alteration/mineralization zone is open to the northwest of the recent drilling area and remains open at depth.

Arco de Oro Zone (“ADO”)

Three (3) holes were drilled on the ADO in the recent drilling program.   Each cut visible mineralization within epithermal vein systems.  Including one hole drilled in 2016 and one hole drilled in 2019, a total of 5 holes have now cut a gold-silver-copper mineralized epithermal vein system over a strike length of 1 kilometer and to a vertical depth of over 300m.  The system is open to the NW, SE and at depth and can be identified by shallow artisanal mining over a strike length of over 3 kilometers.

The remaining two anomalous areas of interest: the Tres Amigos Zone (TAZ) and Caballo Muerto South Zone (CBS) are coincident with 2-3 square kilometer strong copper and gold soil anomalies, porphyry style hydrothermal alteration and copper-gold-solver mineralization. Neither were tested in the recently completed nor any of the prior drilling programs.

  

Regarding the recently completed drilling program, Terrence Walker, San Lorenzo’s VP of Exploration commented: ‘There are so many reasons to be pleased about this program.  The extensive mineralization encountered at the CMZ porphyry target indicates that it a very large system.  Drilling confirmed that IP surveys are helping to target mineralization.  We have now established over a kilometer of strike length on the ADO with another 3 kilometers of old workings at surface and we encountered mineralization down to 300 meters which is still open at depth.  We are excited to receive assay results in the near future and report them to our shareholders.”

San Lorenzo has been advised that assay results are forthcoming whereafter they will be communicated to shareholders via subsequent news release(s) anticipated to be within the next few weeks.
