Expansions To Claim Base and Commencement Of Exploration Work At Medicine Springs Project

VANCOUVER – Northern Lights Resources Corp. reported a significant expansion to the claim base and the commencement of exploration work at the Medicine Springs Project located in Elko County, Nevada. The Company is exploring in joint venture with Reyna Silver Corp.

The 2021 exploration plan for the JV Project includes: The orientation sampling phase is complete (assays pending); A property wide Lidar-like survey is being flown this week. This will facilitate mapping and identify target areas for sampling; A systematic property-wide mapping and selective jasperoid sampling program to determine the limits of the alteration system and where its center (or centers) are located; and Potential additional Magnetic and NSAMT geophysics for drill targeting.

The exploration program builds on geological studies completed by Northern Lights and indicates that there are several mineralization centers in the district developed along strong NE-SW structures reflected by topography and marked by Carbonate Replacement Deposit (CRD) style jasperoid alteration. Reyna interprets the known mineralization and alteration as “leakage” from more concentrated mineralization at depth and intends to trace the system to depth by outlining and following the system’s structural “plumbing” network.

“Jasperoids are an important alteration style marking the limits of major CRD systems, so finding them well outside of our initial Medicine Springs property package means the system is larger than we thought and triggered tripling our property holdings–we are comfortable we now cover the whole thing”, said, Peter Megaw, Technical Advisor to Reyna Silver. “We look forward to defining drill targets quickly by building on Northern Lights excellent work through our expanded district-scale mapping and sampling approach.”
