Vancouver, BC, March 3, 2025 – TheNewswire - Lincoln Gold Mining Inc. (TSX.V:LMG) (“Lincoln Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to report the final logging and assay summary of the Wilson deposit NQ drill program that was completed at the Pine Grove Gold Project (see news release dated November 2, 2021). The program was designed to verify accuracy of previous drill results and enhance the resource category, and to target potential expansion of known gold mineralization within the Wilson Pit area.
Five NQ core holes were completed at the Wilson deposit. Three sites were selected to twin previous recirculation core (“RC”) holes to compare geology and assay results. In addition, two sites were selected as step out holes to test potential for further gold mineralization.
Assay samples were analyzed at Paragon Geochemical in Sparks, Nevada. Gold and silver values reported by Paragon in ppm have been converted to Troy ounces per short ton, which is the standard used by Lincoln at Pine Grove.
Results of Step Out NQ Core Hole Drilling:
Two NQ holes, WL-118NQ and WL-119NQ, successfully verified potential expansion of the Wilson deposit. The depths of the mineralization and the gold values encountered fit well within the blocks as predicted by the grade model. The gold mineralization occurs within the granodiorite host near contacts with feldspar porphyry and dacite dikes, which is consistent with the geologic model.

Results of Twinned NQ Core Hole Drilling – Three NQ core holes were drilled and demonstrated comparable assay and geological results to the prior RC drill holes which encountered gold mineralization within the same mineralized zone as the twinned NQ core holes and in some cases the NQ drilling encountered additional mineralization. The twinned NQ core hole drilling confirms that the geologic model based nearly entirely on reverse circulation drilling at the Wilson and is a good representation of the deposit geology. The results of the comparisons show that coherent zones of mineralization are present in both RC and NQ core hole drilled at the Wheeler and Wilson deposits.

QA/QC:
During November and December of 2021, five NQ core holes were drilled by KB Drilling of Mound House, Nevada. At the end of each shift the contractor delivered the core boxes to the supervisor project geologist at the secure Lincoln field office and sample storage warehouse in Yerington, Nevada.
During August 2024 the core was photographed, logged, and cut at the Lincoln Resources warehouse. The samples selected for analysis were split using a MK Diamond wet tile saw. The QA/QC protocols included the insertion of Certified Reference Material as well as a coarse blank material. Samples were analyzed at Paragon Geochemical in Sparks.
Full details of the drilling, assaying and lithology of the 2021/2024 will be posted on the Company’s website www.lincolnmining.com.
Paul Saxton, President and CEO states: “The Company is pleased with the results of this drill program as it enables us to plan for additional drilling with the intent of adding to the Pine Grove Gold Project’s resource, even as we move to production at the Bell Mountain Gold Project.”
