StrikePoint Announces 2023 Exploration Plans for Cuprite Gold Project, Walker Lane, Nevada

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 27, 2023) - StrikePoint Gold Inc. (TSXV: SKP) (OTCQB: STKXF) ("StrikePoint" or the "Company") announces a multi-stage exploration program for its 100% owned Cuprite Gold Project, located in Nevada's prolific Walker Lane.

Cuprite is thought to be analogous to the nearby 3.4 million ounce Silicon gold deposit recently discovered by Anglogold. Geochemical, geophysical and structural vectoring led to the Silicon gold discovery and StrikePoint will be using similar techniques to assess the 44 square kilometer Cuprite Gold Project. In addition, the Company has begun the permitting process for drilling and expects to be drilling in the second half of 2023.

Michael G. Allen said, "We are pleased to be quickly advancing the Cuprite Gold Project. In 2023, we've acquired and expanded a significant land package utilizing an exploration concept never before tested at Cuprite. This exploration concept led to the discovery of a significant new gold discovery at Silicon and the similarities between Silicon and Cuprite are striking. We are all looking forward to the upcoming work."
