VANCOUVER, BC and HONG KONG, CHINA / ACCESSWIRE / April 13 2022 / Reyna Gold Corp. (TSXV:REYG)(OTCQB:REYGF) ("Reyna" or the "Company") is pleased to announce initial results from the first 8 holes totaling 710 meters(m) of its ongoing 10,000m drill program at its 24,215 hectares Flagship La Gloria Property in Sonora, Mexico. Reyna has achieved the two primary objectives from these holes of extending the breccia zone at Big Pit and establishing quartz veining of grade and size at Pique Viejo. All 8 holes hit gold mineralized structures in initial exploration drilling across the 160 hectares Main Zone target area.

Highlights:

• Drill hole LG-22-005, 7.85m of 3.95 grams per ton (g/t) Gold (Au)from surface, including 1.30m of 19.65 g/t Au, extending the known breccia northeast
• Drill hole LG-22-001, 30.6m of 0.51 g/t Au from surface increasing depth of known breccia
• Drill holes LG-22-007 & LG-22-008 discovered Las Amarillas Vein including intersects of 0.6m of 8.61 g/t Au and 0.5m of 4.13 g/t Au and established minimum length for Amarillas Vein of 280m
• Drill Holes LG-22-008 established Las Amarillas Vein Zone of 81m discontinuous length with seven veins closely stacked

"These are great initial results we are really pleased to have hit a substantial vein at Pique Viejo with the first two drill holes there and to have hit high-grade gold from surface at Big Pit," Michael Wood CEO of Reyna Gold commented. "The Las Amarillas Vein is a just one of many new targets the geological team have identified on our 24,215 hectares property. We are taking a district scale approach to exploring La Gloria and we are expecting to continue uncovering new areas of gold, silver and copper mineralization across the property."

The Las Amarillas Vein is the fourth major vein Reyna has now discovered on a developing trend of veins running on the regional northwest trend in Main Zone and El Sombrero target areas, a combined target area of around 2,000 hectares.

Las Amarillas Discovery - Pique Viejo

Drill Holes LG-22-007 and LG-22-008 both intersected the Las Amarillas Vein. LG-22-007 intersected the vein around 40m from surface, with an intersect of 8.61 g/t Gold, 11.2 g/t Silver (Ag), 0.11% Copper (Cu), 0.26% Lead (Pb), 0.13% Zinc (Zn) over 0.60m, and hit another 5 veins and veinlets zones with Au, Ag, Cu, Pb and Zn grades.

LG-22-008 intersected the Las Amarillas Vein 105m further north-northwest (NNW), and at around 60m depth from surface, with a main intersect of 4.13 g/t Au, 18.3 g/t Ag, 0.10% Cu, 0.49% Zn over 0.50m. LG-22-008 intercepted seven veins from 6m to 87m deep, identifying a vein zone with a discontinuous width of 81m (separation between veins no greater than 15m).

With the information obtained from holes LG-22-007 and LG-22-008 and work at surface, Reyna is able to corroborate the Las Amarillas Vein has a minimum length of 280m, and is a high-grade gold rich, polymetallic vein. Reyna first identified the Las Amarillas Vein via two high-grade gold surface samples of 93.9 g/t Au, 54 g/t Ag, with traces of Cu, Pb & Zn and a second high-grade surface sample northwest on the vein of 36.2 g/t Au, 12.3 g/t Ag with traces of Pb and Zn. (https://reynagold.com/read/PR-20220110). In addition, with holes, LG-22-007 and LG-22-008, an area of ​​veins & veinlets was discovered, both at the hanging wall and foot-wall of the high-grade gold vein, with which the company can confirm a minimum width of 81m of veins and veinlets zone at Las Amarillas. The Reyna geological team believe that the system could well could become thicker and higher grade at depth, and follow-up drilling is being planned.

"There is great potential at Las Amarillas for a substantial vein system. We have hit a lot of veins and veinlets just in these initial two holes that are relatively shallow. What is even more exciting is that we are also finding similar veins at surface running on the northwest trend in San Pedro, Las Quintas, Las Quintas West and La Republicana target areas, which when added to Main Zone and El Sombrero targets, creates a substantial target area stretching around 16km in length." said Ariel Navarro VP of Exploration Reyna Gold.

Breccia Zone Extensions - Big Pit

Holes LG-22-01, LG-22-03 and LG-22-05 were drilled looking to extend the depth and the strike southwest and northeast of the known gold hosting hydrothermal breccia at Big Pit. LG-22-05 was drilling 25m northeast of known mineralization towards El Sombrero target, following up on a surface sample of 46 g/t Au and returned 3.95 g/t Au over 7.95m from surface. LG-22-001 was drilling into the known hydrothermal breccia and returned 30.6m of 0.51 g/t Au. LG-22-03 extended the hydrothermal breccia southwest and returned 11m of 0.24 g/t Au.

Holes LG-22-002, LG-22-004, and LG-22-006, were designed to test extensions south and did intersect a tectonic-hydrothermal breccia of 21.90m (LG-22-002), 51.80 m (LG-22-004) and 18.40 m (LG-22-006) but this tectonic-hydrothermal breccia presented limited gold grades from the assay results. Reyna is assessing the possibility of re-assaying with a different assay method better suited to assaying coarse-grained gold. Coarse-grained gold is common in the Orogenic Gold Belt deposits of Northwestern Mexico, Southwestern Arizona, Southeast California and Nevada.

The breccias at La Gloria contain veinlets, patches, and veins of milky white quartz, with pyrite, galena, sphalerite, iron carbonates (mainly ankerite and siderite), the host rock presenting a hydrothermal alteration mainly of quartz-sericite, and to lesser extent carbonates, which is a similar assemblage to the veins and veinlets of the La Herradura and El Chanate mines. At La Herradura, stronger sericitic/quartz-sericite alteration and higher abundance of veins and veinlets, is associated with the higher gold grades, we are observing the same at La Gloria.

Drilling is ongoing and Reyna has now completed 17 holes totaling 2,236 meters of drilling. The first 36 drill holes have been outlined totaling around 3,700 of the initial 10,000m phase 1 drill program (https://reynagold.com/read/news-20220413). Reyna intends to keep releasing batches of drill results when received over the coming weeks and months as the company continues to advance the district-scale La Gloria property.

QA/QC Statement

QA/QC Statement Reyna Gold follows industry standard procedures for diamond core drilling and sample analysis. Drilling is done with NQ size tools. The drill core is cut in half with a diamond rock saw and then half of the core is taken as a sample for analysis and the other as a log. Sampling intervals are generally 0.2 to 2 m intervals, producing samples between 0.6 and 10 kg. Half-core samples are shipped to ALS Minerals' internationally certified laboratory facility in the city of Hermosillo, where the samples are prepared. ALS has a quality management system (ISO 17025) and testing is performed by ALS Minerals in Canada. Samples are fire tested for Au (Au-AA24) and analyzed for Ag and multiple elements using the ICP method code (ME-ICP41 + ME-ME42, only to analyze tellurium) after digestion with aqua regia. Samples showing visible gold are resubmitted to ALS for metal screen assay. Overlimits are analyzed using an appropriate method. Multi-element geochemical standards and blanks or duplicates are inserted based on depth and mineralization of each hole, having 15% to 20% QA/QC control samples per hole, thus monitoring the laboratory performance. The control samples are inserted in a blank, standard and duplicate pattern, each hole begins with a blank and at least 3 control samples are taken into account for every 20 samples, complying with a minimum of 15% with control samples and standards of quality by probing, these are separated and inserted every 7 to 10 samples for the case of standard and white pulps, and duplicated every 30 samples. Subsequently, the mineralized zone is taken into account by inserting a control at the beginning of the zone, the middle zone and with the greatest abundance of mineral and at the limit of the mineralized zone with the host rock, having at this stage at least 20% of samples for QA. In reference to the chain of custody, the samples are transported from La Gloria by Reyna Gold personnel to ALS Chemex in the city of Hermosillo.
