TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / November 28, 2022 / Signal Gold Inc. ("Signal Gold" or the "Company") (TSX:SGNL) (OTCQX:SGNLF) is pleased to announce it has acquired a 100% interest in six (6) exploration licenses adjacent to the Goldboro Mineral Resource at its Goldboro Gold Project in Nova Scotia, Canada ("Goldboro", or the "Project"). As a result, Signal Gold has increased its exploration license area from 599 hectares to 3,756 hectares (Exhibit A). This represents a significant milestone in the development of the Project as these exploration licenses cover the surface area which will be required for much of the Project's key infrastructure. It also adds further exploration opportunity along strike of the Goldboro Mineral Resource, as the additional licenses include the strike continuity of the host structure of the Goldboro Deposit, bringing the total known and prospective strike length to 7.5 kilometres (Exhibit B).

"This acquisition of these exploration licenses represents an important milestone in the development and growth of the Goldboro Gold Project, following on the heels the Environmental Assessment Approval received on August 2, 2022, and the recent commencement of exploration drilling to the west of the existing Goldboro Mineral Resource. These exploration licenses represent a significant increase in the Company's mineral property, which will be required for key infrastructure. Signal Gold now has a footprint that is over six times larger than it previously held, which includes an additional 3.2 kilometres of strike potential for a total of 7.5 kilometres of known and prospective strike length, providing a tremendous opportunity for further exploration upside and mineral resource growth."

~Kevin Bullock, President and CEO, Signal Gold Inc.
