VANCOUVER, BC , July 7, 2022 /CNW/ - Nevada King Gold Corp. (TSXV: NKG) (OTCQX: NKGFF) ("Nevada King " or the "Company") is pleased to announce an update on resource expansion and definition drilling at its 5,166 hectare, 100% owned Atlanta Gold Mine Project, located in the prolific Battle Mountain Trend 264km northeast of Las Vegas, Nevada .
Nevada King has completed 14 reverse circulation drill holes totaling 1,140 metres. An initial batch of drill samples has been delivered to American Assay Labs in Reno, Nevada , with assay results anticipated in the coming weeks.
Three drills are now on site, including a recently arrived Foremost dual rotary and a MaxiDrill diamond core rig. Pre-collar work has begun, targeting high-grade gold mineralization along the Atlanta Mine Fault Zone ("AMFZ"), identified in 2021 drilling with results that included 41.2m averaging 3.94 g/t Au, 64m averaging 3.35 g/t Au, and 54.9m averaging 5.34 g/t Au, starting at or near surface.
Nevada King has initiated its Phase II Metallurgical Testing Program with the collection of a bulk sample from the northern end of the historical pit. This is the first of three bulk samples that will be collected from zones of low, medium, and high grade gold mineralization exposed in and around the pit. Test work on these bulk samples will evaluate gold recoverability utilizing cyanide extraction.
Exploration Manager Cal Herron stated: "Drilling is advancing smoothly. The first 14 RC holes drilled this season were collared south of the historic Atlanta Pit and were planned to evaluate and test the structural controls over gold mineralization across the southern extension of the AMFZ. A newly arrived Foremost DR (dual rotary) rig is currently drilling pre-collar holes through the unmineralized volcanic overburden in preparation for PQ and HQ core tails. Working in concert on the deeper holes, the DR rotary and Maxi core drills can now efficiently and cost-effectively follow up on high-grade intersections identified at the bottom of the pit to test extensions to the north, south, and down-dip to the west as well as northwestward along the AMFZ.
In view of the recently announced positive cyanide solubility test results, this year's program will be expanded to include drill testing of mineralization outside of the 2020 Gustavson resource zone, particularly north, east, and south of the existing pit. Both low and high-grade gold mineralization remain open in all directions and much of this season's drilling will occur well outside of the historical pit perimeter into areas that have seen little or no drilling. Bolstered by the success of last year's program in significantly expanding the footprint of gold mineralization at Atlanta well outside the Gustavson resource area and in intercepting significant intervals of high-grade gold mineralization in new areas, Nevada King enters the 2022 exploration season at Atlanta 'loaded for bear', with an expanded geological and support team, three drills, additional excavating equipment, and most importantly, ever confident in our ability to grow Atlanta into a major gold deposit."

ZURICH (Reuters) -Swiss fragrance and flavour maker Givaudan will accelerate price increases in the second half of the year to offset higher costs, it said on Thursday after reporting improving sales growth despite squeezed margins. In addition to price increases, Givaudan's half-year results benefited from rising perfume sales as airport travel recovers and a pick-up in the food segment as more people eat out. Givaudan and its peers are having to contend with higher input costs, supply chain disruption and delays in implementing price increases.
The retail chain, owned by Japanese retailer Seven & i Holdings Co, cut jobs at its support centers and field support operations in Irving, Texas and Enon, Ohio, the spokesperson said in an email to Reuters. 7-Eleven joins a host of U.S.-based companies who have recently laid off their employees as the country struggles with broadening inflationary pressure. In 2020, Seven & i Holdings had agreed to buy Marathon Petroleum Corp's Speedway gas stations for $21 billion.
NEW YORK (Reuters) -Blackstone Inc, the world's largest alternative asset manager, posted an 86% surge in second-quarter distributable earnings on Thursday but warned that the asset sales fueling this growth would slow down amid the economic downturn. Blackstone shares fell more than 6% on Thursday morning as investors focused on the downbeat outlook given by the firm's president, Jonathan Gray, rather than on the earnings beat. "Volatile markets do mean realizations will likely be muted for some time," Gray told analysts on a conference call, referring to asset sales which drive the firm's distributable earnings by allowing it to book lucrative performance fees.
FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — Gov. Andy Beshear made a pitch Thursday to a steel company that took over plans to build an aluminum plant once promised to Kentucky, hoping to salvage a deal struck by his predecessor. Beshear said his economic development team has reached out to Steel Dynamics Inc., offering to show potential sites for the $1.9 billion plant. The company said this week it will build and operate the mill but did not specify a location, other than to say it will be in the southeastern U.S.
ROME (Reuters) -Telecom Italia bonds and shares fell on Friday after ratings agency Moody's downgraded the phone group's credit rating for the second time in four months, pushing it further into junk territory . Moody's on Thursday cut TIM's rating by one notch to 'B1', confirming a negative outlook, citing expectations that the former phone monopoly's leverage would remain high and free cash flow would stay negative over the next two to three years. "The macroeconomic environment has deteriorated since we downgraded [Telecom Italia's] rating to Ba3 in March, reducing the visibility on Telecom Italia's operating performance and its expected deleveraging path", Moody's said.
(Reuters) -Snap Inc on Thursday painted a grim picture of the effects of a weakening economy on social media and declined to make a forecast in "incredibly challenging" conditions, sending its shares down 25% and setting off a chain reaction of stocks among rivals. The Snapchat owner said some advertisers continue to face supply-chain disruptions and labor shortages, and many others are contending with rising costs amid record inflation, which has led to cutbacks in spending on advertising. Facebook owner Meta Platforms Inc, Google owner Alphabet Inc and other companies that sell online ads lost about $80 billion in combined stock market value on Thursday after the results by Snap, which was the first of the major tech firms to report second-quarter earnings.

Canada's antitrust agency said on Friday it needs more time to investigate the concession offered by Rogers Communications Inc to allay competition concerns over its proposed C$20 billion ($15.5 billion) takeover of Shaw Communications Inc's, a move that Rogers swiftly opposed. Rogers has agreed to sell Freedom Mobile to Quebecor Inc to overcome competition bureau's objection to the Shaw deal. The antitrust bureau has blocked Rogers' proposed takeover of Shaw arguing it would lessen competition in a country where consumers pay among the highest telecoms bills in the world.
When the blaze tore through a forest in Greece last August, swallowing up pine trees and scorching the earth, Stathis Albanis knew his beekeeping trade would suffer. As wildfires again rampage across Europe this summer, the Greek beekeeper's predicament highlights the long-lasting damage done to thousands of individual livelihoods in farming and tourism, let alone the wider cost to the economy. Already this year, wildfires have broken out in a dozen European countries, often simultaneously, burning tens of thousands of hectares of land, and destroying homes and businesses.

SYDNEY (Reuters) -Goldman Sachs Group Inc appointed Australia's former Treasurer Josh Frydenberg as the bank's senior regional adviser for the Asia Pacific region on Thursday. Frydenberg became one of the highest-ranking cabinet ministers to ever be voted out of parliament this year when he was ousted by independent Monique Ryan, a pediatric neurologist running for office for the first time, during elections in May. The appointment came after the investment bank approached Frydenberg following his election defeat, according to Simon Rothery, Goldman Sachs Australia chief executive.
