HALIFAX, May 30, 2019 /CNW/ - GoGold Resources Inc. (TSX: GGD) ("GoGold", "the Company") is pleased to report the assay results from 23 exploration trenches completed at the Los Ricos Property identifying mineralization for 1.5 km along strike to the southeast of the El Abra zone.

Brad Langille, President and CEO, states "we are very pleased to see the results from our geological mapping, sampling and trenching program has defined at least 5 new targets, where we are currently mobilizing an additional drilling rig, along strike to the south of the former Cinco Minas El Abra underground mine. The largest zone is known as Cerro Colorado and extends for a strike length of 500m. With these widths and grades at surface, we feel there is an excellent chance to discover new high-grade deposits along the Los Ricos vein system that have not been previously mined. Based on our trenching and mapping to date, the limited historical drilling in this area may have missed the mineralized zone which we have identified."

GoGold commenced a diamond drilling program of HQ size core in conjunction with a field program of geological mapping, sampling and trenching on the property. With the drilling program testing the El Abra zone which has historical underground workings, the surface exploration program has been focused on following the mineralized Los Ricos structure along strike to the southeast towards the Cerro Colorado prospect. Gold and silver mineralization has been exposed in numerous locales along the system in surface outcrops, trenches and historical shallow pits and workings over a distance of 3.2km, with the mineralized zone widths varying between 1 and 25 metres, averaging between 10 to 15 metres, dipping west at approximately 70 degrees. A total of 930 samples varying in length between 1m to 2m have been collected and sent for gold and silver assay and multi-element ICP analysis.

The drilling results from the first 10 holes at the El Abra zone have shown excellent results as previously announced on May 14, May 1, April 24, and April 17. These drill results focused on drilling the halo around historical underground workings mined in the early 1900s. The Company has reviewed historical mining data showing that in the early 1900s the operators mined approximately 218,000 gold and 31.6 million silver ounces for 640,000 gold equivalent ounces at an average grade of approximately 10 g/t gold equivalent. The trenching results below will direct the Company's next phase of drilling with a goal to discover high-grade deposits similar to the El Abra deposit.

Figure 1 provides a 3D view of the Los Ricos property surrounding the historical underground workings at the El Abra zone, with the location of the other zones shown.

Highlights of the trenching program at Cerro Colorado include Composite 2, at an estimated true length of 16.0m and gold equivalent grade of 5.02 g/t, and Composite 5 at a length of 18.0m and gold equivalent grade of 4.45 g/t. Full details of the trench intersections are provided in Table 1 and Figure 2.

In addition to the strong results at Cerro Colorado, trenching was completed at other zones on the property including San Pedro which intersected 8.8m of 3.66 g/t gold equivalent, Las Lamas which intersected 1.0m of 42.60 g/t gold equivalent, and at El Abra, with results including 10.1m at 3.61 g/t gold equivalent.

Lab Preparation and Assay
The channel samples are collected from surface outcrops and exposures in hand or mechanically dug trenches. After mapping and photographing the trench, the geologists mark out the sample intervals and supervise the collection of the samples. Some of the trenches are suspended either due to talus debris or large boulders on the hillside.

The sealed and tagged sample bags are transported to the ActLabs facility in Zacatecas, Mexico. ActLabs crushes the samples and prepares 200-300 gram pulp samples with ninety percent passing Tyler 150 mesh (106μm). The pulps are assayed for gold using a 50 gram charge by fire assay (Code 1A2-50) and over limits greater than 10 grams per tonne are re-assayed using a gravimetric finish (Code 1A3-50). Silver and multi-element analysis is completed using total digestion (Code 1F2 Total Digestion ICP). Over limits greater than 100 grams per tonne silver are re-assayed using a gravimetric finish (Code 8-Ag FA-GRAV Ag).

Quality Assurance / Quality Control and Data Verification
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.
