Warrior Gold Announces Initiation of High-Resolution Airborne Magnetic, VLF and LiDAR Survey, Summer Mapping Program and Filing of Updated NI 43-101 Technical Report

Warrior Gold Inc. (TSX-V - WAR) (“Warrior Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the high-resolution airborne magnetic and LiDAR Survey will commence within the next few days at its Kirkland Lake Gold Camp properties.

A high-resolution regional (approximately 3,400 line-kilometres) triaxial magnetic, VLF and LiDAR survey across the KLC/Arnold and KLW project areas will be completed by GoldSpot Discoveries Corp.’s (“GoldSpot”) Geophysical Services division (see September 21, 2021 news release). This high-resolution survey will utilize their newly developed M-PASS system. The M-PASS platform consists of a triaxial magnetic gradient magnetic/VLF platform, 2048 channel radiometric sensor along with a high-precision LiDAR sensor and high-resolution cameras capable of producing four-band imagery which is used to collect the magnetic and VLF data sets, LiDAR and orthophotos.

The data sets collected by this survey will provide Warrior Gold with the geophysical and topographic information that will be useful to advance the regional structural interpretation and analysis of the newly acquired and prospective KLW and KLC/Arnold land packages. Follow-up work will include the ground truthing of geophysical and mineralized structural targets identified by the compilation of these data sets.

Field work, prospecting, geological mapping and sampling will also start in the first week of June with the objective to follow up mineralized targets identified from the Company’s research into the government archives on its recently acquired KLW and KLC/Arnold properties.
