Vancouver, British Columbia – July 10, 2023: C2C Gold Corp. (CSE:CTOC) (the “Company” or “C2C”) announced today it has entered into an option agreement for 100% of the Golden Nugget Property, located on New World Island in Canada’s Newfoundland. This Project lies immediately adjacent to the Company’s Dunnage Project which includes an outcropping quartz vein containing visible gold, arsenopyrite and stibnite returned 120 g/t gold (C2C NR Sept. 12, 2022). The Golden Nugget Property comprises 9 mineral licenses covering approximately 20 km2, and is located approximately 90 km north of Gander, NL. This acquisition is in keeping with C2C Gold’s strategy to acquire advanced drill ready projects while evaluating and advancing key projects from within the Company’s significant land holdings.

Golden Nugget Project Highlights

The Big Oz showing – 29.2 g/t gold over 2.5m, including 87.0 g/t gold over 0.8m, and 27.9 g/t gold over 1.22m;
The Gina showing – 49.0 g/t gold over 0.3 m, and 18.8 g/t gold over 0.3 m;
The Red Fox Showing – a visible gold discovery in a strongly altered and silicified dyke within the Dunnage Melange;
Airborne geophysics completed in 2022, with analysis reports by GoldSpot Discoveries;
Extensive prospecting, geological and structural analysis, with rock and soil sampling campaigns by prior operators have identified a number of drill ready targets, including at least five separate occurrences of visible gold.

Chris Huggins, Chief Executive Officer stated: “The Golden Nugget Project is an exciting property where prior operators have completed significant work and established numerous drill-ready targets. Our goal is to drill this season and maximize the chance of success by utilizing a low cost, high productivity tracked reverse circulation (RC) drill which has proven successful in Yukon gold exploration.”

The Golden Nugget Project is within a 30 km belt along a major structural corridor in northeastern Notre Dame Bay. Based on mineralization and lithologies, two different trends have been defined by Rubicon Minerals Corporation:

The New World Trend (NWT): This is a 15 km long structural-stratigraphic contact zone between siliciclastic turbidites (Caradocian and Badger Group) and the Dunnage Melange. The NWT is exposed along the southern shore of New World Island and in small islands within Dildo Run (see map 1). Mineralization is often found as arsenopyrite, pyrite, and gold, related to alteration of felsic dykes, sedimentary and mafic rocks. Also, pyrite, arsenopyrite, and visible gold are found within quartz-carbonate veins, which cut sedimentary and mafic rocks.
The Dunnage-Coaker Corridor (DCC): This is a 2 km long, shallow ocean channel between Coaker Island and northern Dunnage Island which exposes rocks of the Coaker Porphyry and Dunnage Mélange (see map 1). Gold is often found associated with pervasive alteration of the Coaker Porphyry. Mineralization includes pyrite, arsenopyrite, stibnite, chalcopyrite and gold.
