Frontline Gold Corporation announced that soil sampling results have been received from the 2022 field program on its Epworth Property (`the Property'), Nunavut. Humus (A horizon) and B horizon /clay samples were collected across the `Metallic Trend' discovered in 2021, as well as the strike extension of the Trend to the north and south. The Metallic Trend consists of locally high-grade Cu-Zn-Pb-Ag mineralization and strongly anomalous Au & Co mineralization over a strike length of 1.1 km (see Project Background below).

The soil sampling survey consisted of seven east-northeast-west-southwest lines over a distance of 2.8 km, with lines ranging in length from 75 to 150 meters and sample station spacing at 12.5 m. Either a humus sample or B horizon /clay sample were collected at each station. The latter were frequently collected in frost boils. The best results were obtained from frost boils which turned up mineralized rock (sampled in 2021, see Project Background below).

Humus samples returned strongly anomalous results adjacent to these frost boils but also in low, marshy ground. Top results for B horizon /clay samples are as follows: 2970 ppm Cu (TD-ICP*); 2710 ppm Zn (TD-ICP); 2010 ppm Pb (TD-ICP); 127 ppm Co (TD-ICP); 8.6 ppm Ag (TD-ICP); 99 ppb Au (FA-AA**). Top results for Humus (A horizon) samples are as follows: 542 ppm Cu (TD-ICP); 960 /848 ppm Zn (INAA*** /TD-ICP); 101 ppm Pb (TD-ICP); 54 /32 ppm Co (INAA /TD-ICP); <2 /0.4 ppm Ag (INAA /TD-ICP); 4 ppb Au (INAA) *TD-ICP stands for `Total Digestion ­ Inductively Coupled Plasma', an analytical method used by Activation Laboratories.

FA-AA stands for `Fire Assay ­ Atomic Absorption', an analytical method used by Activation Laboratories; INAA stands for `Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis', an analytical method used by Activation Laboratories. The highest-value soil anomalies were obtained along the 1.1 km high-grade trend identified in 2021, but weaker anomalies were obtained to the north and south, suggesting that the trend continues (to possibly 2.8 km long and still open along strike). Depth of overburden may play a role in the weaker values on some lines, though mineralization may also not be as intense in these locations.

Anomalies were frequently obtained at multiple stations on individual lines, suggesting wide mineralized zones or parallel horizons. . Final results for rock-grab samples collected during the program are pending and will be reported once received.

The Metallic Trend follows the contact zone between Upper Odjick Formation red shales and Lower Rocknest Formation dolomites, often forming a valley which can be up to 100 meters wide. Mineralization occurs within grey (reduced) Rocknest dolomite flanked by red (oxidized) dolomite. Redox boundaries are thought to be a crucial control on mineralization.

Data collected during the 2022 program suggest that there are at least two parallel reduced, mineralized horizons along the Trend. Multi-station geochemical anomalies appear to support this. Where exposed on surface, the mineralized horizons are up to 12 meters wide and host sulphide-rich quartz-carbonate veins up to 0.4 meters wide.

Alternatively, these `parallel horizons' may be explained by repetition of a single horizon by folding or structural duplication by thrust faulting. Larger-scale folding and /or thrusting likely explains the parallel trends that exist to the west and east of the Metallic Trend. Future diamond drilling programs should help establish the geometries of these zones and their vertical extent.

Project Background: The Epworth Project is located 85km south of the village of Kugluktuk (Coppermine), containing three main previously known areas of high-grade polymetallic mineralization from 1-25m wide occurring for more than 15km along strike. Historical surface grab samples have reported spectacular high-grade mineralization including: 61.2% Cu & 5600 gpt Ag (Payback Showings); 19.22% Zn with 810 gpt Ag, 3% Cu & 1.86 gpt Au (Metallic Showing). The Metallic trend was identified in 2021 while investigating the historical Metallic Showing (formerly named `Dead Showing') in the northern part of the property, consisting of dolomite with sulphide-rich quartz-carbonate veining in outcrop.

Mineralized angular float boulders, subcrop (felsenmeer, frost boil rings) and outcrop were found to extend much further to the south than previously identified, along a well-defined north-northwest-south-southeast-trending corridor. Samples along the Metallic Trend returned strongly anomalous to high-grade Cu-Zn-Pb as well as consistently anomalous Au, locally high-grade Ag and anomalous Co with values up to: 37.8% Cu (with 184 ppb Au, 2970 ppm Zn, 449 ppm Pb, 356 ppm Co & 45 ppm Ag); 3.01 gpt Au (with 7860 ppm Cu & 579 ppm Co); 19.3% Zn, 10% Pb & 1130 ppm Ag (with 1.85 gpt Au, 3.01% Cu & 1010 ppm Co); 1700 ppm Co (with 201 ppb Au, 6090 ppm Cu, 8.93% Zn, 1.78% Pb & 154 ppm Ag).
