Hole LRGF-20-001 was drilled on the El Favor target and intersected a quartz vein and brecciated stockwork zone hosted in andesite tuffs from 15.0 to 56.7m for 41.7m of 168 g/t silver equivalent ("AgEq"), consisting of 142 g/t silver and 0.36 g/t gold. The intersect included 11.0m of 529g/t AgEq, which was made up of 444 g/t silver and 1.12 g/t gold, which began at a depth of 18.7m. The hole encountered further mineralization from 131.3m to 147.0m, for 15.7m of 59 g/t AgEq.
Hole LRGS-20-001 was the first hole drilled on the Salomon target and intersected 14.0m of 298 g/t AgEq, consisting of 280 g/t silver and 0.24 g/t gold from 223.5m to 237.5m, including 5.0m of 737 g/t AgEq. The hole intercepted mineralization at multiple depths, including 19.9m from 2.6m to 22.5m, 10.4m from 45.0m to 55.4m, and 20.3m from 90.0m to 110.3m.
"We're extremely encouraged with our initial drilling results at Salomon-Favor to see four stacked zones of wide mineralization starting from surface," said
Hole LRGF-20-004 at El Favor intersected 4.1m of 528 g/t AgEq from 34.0m to 38.1m, which was included in a 41.1m intersect of 93 g/t AgEq, after excluding 6.4m of historically mined voids. In addition, this hole intersected 15.8m of 93 g/t AgEq beginning at surface. The mineralization dips steeply to the north where it has been intersected in mine workings along the valley floor some 300 meters down dip. Hole LRGF-20-003 was lost at a shallow depth due to a technical issue where it didn't cut the complete mineralized package. Hole LRGF-20-004 was collared at the same location at a steeper angle and was able to pass through the entire zone.
The 2020 field work began in June after compiling the work conducted by former operators. GoGold initiated a program of geological mapping and sampling along the historical

Procedure, Quality Assurance / Quality Control and Data Verification
The diamond drill core (HQ size) is geologically logged, photographed and marked for sampling. When the sample lengths are determined, the full core is sawn with a diamond blade core saw with one half of the core being bagged and tagged for assay. The remaining half portion is returned to the core trays for storage and/or for metallurgical test work.
The sealed and tagged sample bags are transported to the ActLabs facility in
Quality assurance and quality control ("QA/QC") procedures monitor the chain-of-custody of the samples and includes the systematic insertion and monitoring of appropriate reference materials (certified standards, blanks and duplicates) into the sample strings. The results of the assaying of the QA/QC material included in each batch are tracked to ensure the integrity of the assay data. All results stated in this announcement have passed GoGold's QA/QC protocols.
