U.S. GoldMining Inc. (NASDAQ:USGO) ("U.S. GoldMining" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on the results of exploration target delineation and analysis performed for the Whistler Gold-Copper Project (the "Whistler Project" or the "Project") in Alaska, U.S.A.

Highlights:

  • The Whistler Project lies within the emerging West Susitna Mineral District located just 100 miles west of Anchorage, Alaska.
  • The Company's 100% owned land package consists of 53,700 acres of State mining claims encompassing three separate gold ± copper ± silver mineral systems identified to date.
    • Whistler - Raintree mineral system – includes the Whistler and Raintree West deposits which are hosted within the broader Whistler Orbit intrusive center, comprising multiple additional mapped porphyry intrusions spread over an area of approximately 5 x 5 km, interpreted as a classic 'porphyry cluster' with potential for additional gold ± copper ± silver mineralization to be discovered.  
    • Island Mountain mineral system – encompasses the known Island Mountain deposit plus several additional porphyry or intrusion related gold targets over an area of mapped intrusive rocks with diameter of +3 km.
    • Muddy Creek mineral system – a large gold-in-soil geochemical footprint over an area of approximately 6 km x 4 km with an intrusion-related gold geochemical signature.
  • The Company is currently undertaking further analysis to rank and prioritize the numerous targets located across each of the three gold ± copper ± silver mineral systems identified to date, and to develop phased exploration programs which could commence this coming summer.
