Sylla Gold Corp. announced additional positive gold assay results from 212 air core (AC) drill holes totalling 10,600 m completed on gold anomaly target areas previously defined by both termite and soil sampling. These anomalies occur at various locations all within the Company's Niaouleni Gold Project ("Niaouleni") in Southern Mali.

The company's 2022 Phase 1 drilling program consisted of 57 reverse circulation (RC) holes, which focused on South Niaouleni, Kankou Moussa, Lebre Plateau and Gouingouindougou and 206 shallow AC holes designed to define additional gold targets throughout the licence for follow-up RC drilling. AC Drilling Highlights: 37.0 g/t Au over 2 m from drill hole NSAC22-142, 17.6 g/t Au over 2 m from drill hole NSAC22-211 (laterite) and 1.10 g/t Au over 8 m. 4.43 g/t Au over 6 m from drill hole NSAC22-198 including 12.4 g/t Au over 2 m. 6.78 g/t Au over 2 m from drill hole NSAC22-122. 5.88 g/t Au over 2 m from drill hole NSAC22-150 (laterite).

5.70 g/t Au over 2 m from drill hole NSRC22-042 (laterite). and 1.10 g/t Au over 8 m and 0.93 g/t Au over 8 m. Technical Overview of AC Drilling Program: The AC drilling program was used a first pass, reconnaissance-style shallow drilling technique to test multiple regional targets and to test extensive termite mound and soil anomalies that lie both on strike from the adjacent Kobada deposit owned by Toubani Resources and in other areas of the property. All gold-bearing intersections during the AC drilling program were hosted in metasedimentary saprolite with quartz veins /veinlets.

Geological interpretation for these AC drill hole results is still very preliminary and will require follow-up RC drilling to further refine any identified targets. Air Core (AC) drilling methods: Air Core (AC) drilling techniques are typically used to sample mineralized horizons at very shallow depths (<100 m), or as utilized at Niaouleni to quickly ground truth the company's soil and termite gold anomalies. Similar to reverse circulation (RC) drilling both involve the use of compressed air to flush out samples from the hole.

However, AC drilling is mainly limited to unconsolidated materials, and typically at shallow depths compared to RC drilling. Both AC and RC use a closed system to collect representative samples. RC drilling is ideal for harder ground and is also able to achieve much greater depths.

AC drilling at the Niaouleni project is therefore the exploration method used as a first pass check of soil and termite mound gold anomalies to test for gold at depth and typically requires follow-up RC or diamond drilling to better refine the initial results. AC drilling is therefore used as a cheaper, cost-saving drilling method for ground-truthing surface anomalies over a large area over a short period of time.
