Adamera Minerals Corp. announced a high-grade gold intersection assaying 10.5 g/t gold over 4.42 metres on the Lamefoot South gold property in Washington State. Drill hole LS22-02 includes two contiguous assays with 14.31 g/t Au over 1.22 metres and the other 21.24 g/t Au over 1.07 metres.

The site is located 540 metres southeast of the former Lamefoot Gold Mine. Two initial follow up holes were drilled at PL-6, the 2021 discovery drill hole that intersected 4.7 g/t gold over 2.7 metres including 10.7 g/t gold over 0.76 metres. The 2022 drilling was successful in confirming the gold mineralization and determining the orientation of the mineralized zone.

Drill hole LS22-02 suggests gold grades and mineralized width increase with depth in a rod-shaped zone plunging and widening to the northwest. LS22-01 may be off-axis, defining a tentative southwestern limit. The Lamefoot Mine (figure 1, below) consisted of 7 pods or ore zones along the north-south trending limestone-clastic contact that combined to total nearly a million ounces of gold at a grade of 8 to 10 g/t. There is little public domain data on Lamefoot, but a recently acquired long section of the mine shows the seven related but separate ore zones.

They appear to be steeply plunging pipe-like bodies with significant depth extent. As a prelude to the 2022 drill testing, Self-Potential (SP) surveys were carried out to look for sulphide concentrations in the area around PL-6. The latest drill results show a clear correlation between sulphide abundance and increased gold grade confirming Adamera's targeting methodology going forward. Adamera has identified numerous targets with coincident geophysical and geochemical anomalies similar to the anomaly associated with the PL-6 mineralized zone along the prospective geological contact on the Lamefoot South property.

Initial drilling of such targets requires closely spaced drill holes to determine the orientation of the mineralization prior to broader drill hole spacing. The massive sulphide intercept in hole LS22-02, was later utilized for a mise a la masse survey. Mise a la masse surveys can be used to help map the subsurface geometry of a sulphide zone by applying current directly to it.

In the case of LS22-02, the survey appears to shows a steeply plunging zone with possible sulphides. Additional drilling on Lamefoot South is expected to continue in the upcoming weeks. Lower elevation and excellent road access allow for year round drilling at Lamefoot South.

The Lamefoot South property is located 11 km by existing road to the Kinross' Kettle River Mill which is currently on care and maintanence. Gordon Gibson P.Geo, a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed data associated with the project.
