VANCOUVER, BC , Sept. 13, 2022 /CNW/ - Nevada King Gold Corp. ( TSXV: NKG) (OTCQX: NKGFF) ("Nevada King" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results from 13 reverse circulation ("RC") holes recently completed at its Atlanta Gold Mine Project, located 264km northeast of Las Vegas, Nevada in the prolific Battle Mountain Trend.

Cal Herron , P.Geo., Exploration Manager of Nevada King stated, "The 2022 drill program was designed with the objectives of both expanding the current Atlanta resource and also to target potential of areas of high-grade gold mineralization. Today's announcement is pivotal, demonstrating that the areas directly south and southeast of the pit, which have remained largely ignored by past drilling, are primed for resource expansion, and are returning higher-grades and thicknesses than seen in past drilling in the vicinity. The initial drilling has also discovered higher-grade zones including high grade intervals located proximate to a tuff dike breccia unit as well as along high angle faults cutting the silica breccia horizon. The close association between high grade gold mineralization and the strongly altered, and in places mineralized, felsic tuff dike breccia unit raises a number of possibilities for intersecting significantly higher gold grades along the southern extension of the AMFZ as documented by historical holes located west of the open pit and generally below 200m depth.

"Additionally, variably mineralized altered tuff dikes and tuff dike breccia mapped in outcrop and prospect pits several hundred metres south and southeast of the pit appear correlative with the tuff dike breccia associated with higher grade gold mineralization noted in the current drilling. This now provides new zones to target for near surface gold mineralization that will be tested by Nevada King's ongoing 2022 drill program."

Nevada King is the third largest mineral claim holder in the State of Nevada , behind Nevada Gold Mines (Barrick/Newmont) and Kinross Gold . Starting in 2016 Company has staked large project areas hosting significant historical exploration work along the Battle Mountain trend located close to current or former producing gold mines. These project areas were initially targeted based on their potential for hosting multi-million-ounce gold deposits and were subsequently staked following a detailed geological evaluation. District-scale projects in Nevada King's portfolio include (1) the 100% owned Atlanta Mine, located 100km southeast of Ely , (2) the Lewis and Horse Mountain-Mill Creek projects, both located between Nevada Gold Mines' large Phoenix and Pipeline mines, and (3) the Iron Point project, located 35km east of Winnemucca, Nevada .

The Company is well funded with cash of approximately $19.2-million as of September 2022. 

The Atlanta Mine is a historical gold-silver producer with a NI 43-101 compliant pit-constrained resource of 460,000 oz Au in the measured and indicated category (11.0M tonnes at 1.3 g/t) plus an inferred resource of 142,000 oz Au (5.3M tonnes at 0.83 g/t). See the NI 43-101 Technical Report on Resources titled "Atlanta Property, Lincoln County, NV " with an effective date of October 6, 2020 , and a report date of December 22, 2020 , as prepared by Gustavson Associates and filed under the Company's profile on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).
