Antler Gold Announces Completion of Soil and Calcrete Sampling on its Central Erongo Gold Project, Namibia
HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA – (August 23 , 2023) – Antler Gold Inc. (“Antler” or the “Company”) (TSXV:ANTL) is pleased to announce the completion of its soil and calcrete sampling program on its 100% owned Central Erongo Gold Project in Namibia. The project is comprised of five contiguous licenses covering a total area of 185 km2 in highly prospective areas of the Damara Mobile Belt. This includes 28 km of prospective strike length with the same stratigraphy that hosts the Osino Resources Twin Hills deposit. Antler’s EPL 8010 borders with the Twin Hills Mining License (3.1 Moz Au). The highest soil sampling anomaly on Antler’s EPL 7261 is approximately 5 km from the Navachab Gold Mine, a 1989 mineral resource of 10.4 Mt @ 2.4 g/t Au which produced 85,000 ounces of gold in 2022.

“Since acquiring these licenses in 2019, we have significantly expanded our exploration programs, amassing 6,015 soil samples, with 4,157 analyzed and interpreted. This systematic approach has led to the identification of three compelling new drill targets on the project. The C2S gold anomaly, initially spanning 7 km, has the potential to be extended further to the West after the completion of this new sampling campaign. The C2S anomaly is broadly comparable to the early-stage mineralized system identified by Osino in 2018, which led to the discovery of Twin Hills,” said Christopher Drysdale, CEO of Antler Gold Inc.
