About Evergold Evergold Corp. is focused on advancing the Golden Lion project, its 100%-owned, gold-silver project in northern British Columbia's prolific Toodoggone mining district.

At the southern end of the Golden Lion property, at the GL1 Main Zone, previous drilling by the Company, along with historical work, has outlined a near-surface, epithermal-style gold and silver bearing system with excellent potential for expansion along trend and down dip. The property was last explored by the Company in 2021, when the final three holes yielded some of the most significant gold-silver intercepts ever drilled on the property (see News January 17, 2022 ). To the north of the GL1 Main Zone, the property also has copper potential that is clearly evident in historical data, and which has been realized recently elsewhere in the district.
