Eureka, Nevada--(Newsfile Corp. - April 9, 2024) - North Peak Resources Ltd. (TSXV: NPR) (the "Company" or "North Peak") is finalizing plans for its upcoming drilling campaign on its Prospect Mountain Property in Eureka, Nevada (the "Property" or "Prospect Mountain") which is expected to consist of up to 15,000 feet of R/C drilling with 20-30 holes targeting the gold zones on patented claims in the Wabash and Delaware/Madrid areas located in the northern portion of the Property ("Prospect Mountain North") (see Figure 1 below). Drilling at Prospect Mountain North will be at select areas around the former high-grade Williams, Wabash and Chicago gold mines, and the Wabash area which had 91 holes for 27,615 feet of vertical RC drilling completed in 1998/1999 when the gold price was much lower (see Figure 2 below). The campaign is also expected to include follow-up on a drill hole drilled by Homestake Mining that returned very promising gold assays; it is a lone hole located in the eastern portion of the Property with no other historic drilling activity nearby (see Figure 3 below).
