Blue Lagoon Starts 2021 Soil Sampling Program at Dome Mountain

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / June 29, 2021 / Blue Lagoon Resources Inc. (the “Company“) (CSE:BLLG) (FSE:7BL) (OTCQB:BLAGF) is pleased to announce that crews have begun the 2021 soil sampling program on its Dome Mountain Gold Project – a year-round accessible property located a short 50-minute drive from Smither B.C.

The Company’s 2020 soil sampling program resulted in identifying strong anomalous gold in soils zones which will be the focus of immediate follow-up during this year’s field program (see press release February 24, 2021). During the 2020 program, 1178 B-soil samples were collected (including 10% QAQC samples blanks, duplicates and standards inserted into the sample stream). Also, the 2020 program focused on near mine locations including sampling over known mineralization at the Boulder and Forks zones (see figure one) which were designed to investigate the soils response over the known mineralization and were confirmed by the anomalous gold values as expected.

The values returned from just south of the Freegold veins are new and clearly show a new south trending zone of interest. This area will be the immediate focus of the Company’s 2021 exploration season.

Figure 2. Shows gold in soils results at Freegold from the 2020 soils program and priority soils sampling to take place immediately: approximately 600 soil samples.

Anomalous pathfinder elements associated with the high gold-in-soils values at Boulder include antimony, zinc, lead, and silver. At Forks, anomalous pathfinder elements associated with anomalous gold include arsenic, bismuth, lead, molybdenum, and antimony.

Anomalous pathfinder elements associated with gold-in-soils anomalies at Freegold include antimony, copper, molybdenum, zinc, lead, mercury, bismuth, uranium and silver. These coincident anomalies represent the potential for a significant underlying mineralized system.

Some of these anomalous zones will be the focus of diamond drilling this summer however, all will be the focus of follow-up soil sampling and prospecting and prioritization as drilling targets. In addition, property wide soil sampling and prospecting will continue along lithological-structural areas as defined by the 2020 airborne magnetic and electromagnetic geophysics program.

In total, 4,000 soil samples are expected to be collected this season.

QUALITY ASSURANCE AND CONTROL

All rock analyses were completed by Bureau Veritas out of Vancouver. Core selected for sampling was cut with a core saw in half with one half bagged for shipping. Strict chain of custody storing, and shipping protocol were maintained. Core was crushed, split, and pulverized with 250 grams passing 200 mesh. Each sample was analyzed by MA370 4-acid digestion ICP with ES finish and FA 150 fire assay with ICP-MS finish, and all Au over limits <1ppm were analyzed with FA 550 fire assay and gravimetric finish. Standards and Blanks were inserted by Company staff. The sampling program was undertaken by Company personnel by and under the direction of William Cronk, P.Geo.

SAMPLE PROTOCOLS

Soil sample analysis at ALS started with Prep 41 (dry and sieve to -80 mesh) and followed up with Au-AA24 and ME-MS61, which is a 48 element four acid digestion for ICP-MS.

The company is also pleased to announce that it has entered into a marketing contract with Volume Hunters of Vancouver, B.C. The agreement is for a period of 12 months at a cost of $35,000. Volume Hunters will raise public awareness of the Company, including its social media presence and facilitate greater investor engagement and widespread dissemination of the Company’s news.

The scientific and technical data contained in this news release was approved by William Cronk, P.Geo., a qualified person as defined in NI 43-101 and a consultant to the Company.
