ld" or the "Company") announces that it has intersected 12.14 grams per tonne gold ("gpt Au") over 13.5 metres ("m") during exploration drilling at the NT Zone on the Rowan Mine Property in the prolific Red Lake Gold District of northwestern Ontario. The Company also intersected several additional positive gold intersections from NT Zone expansion drilling. Drill Highlights Include: 12.14 gpt Au over 13.5 m 9.14 gpt Au over 7.5 m 5.38 gpt Au over 21.0 m 11.13 gpt Au over 3.0 m 4.99 gpt over 5.2 m 6.34 gpt over 3.0 m West Red Lake Gold completed 3,060 m of diamond drilling in twelve holes along a 250 m portion of the 2 km long NT Zone. The exploration drilling program was designed to expand NT Zone gold mineralization to depth and along strike from the previous 1,443 m, eight hole drill program that intersected 14.18 gpt Au over 7.8 m, 6.51 gpt over 9.3 m, 13.80 gpt over 1.8 m and 3.76 gpt over 5.6 m (see news release dated January 30, 2019). Drilling indicates the presence of four parallel gold zones situated within the 100 metre wide NT Zone structure. The four gold zones are separated by 20 to 30 metres and trend along strike within the north-east trending NT Zone. The two central most zones appear to be the most prospective and are situated approximately 20 meters apart in the central area of the NT Zone structure. Future exploration drilling on the property is planned to follow NT Zone gold mineralization to greater depth below the positive drill results and also continue exploration drilling further along strike to the northeast. Mr. John Kontak, President of West Red Lake Gold stated "We are very pleased that the exploration drill program successfully expanded gold mineralization at the NT Zone. These drill results demonstrate that the 2 km long NT Zone holds significant exploration potential and is a new area of exploration focus which is located a few hundred metres south of the Rowan Mine gold deposit." All the current holes intersected the NT Zone which consists of a broad hydrothermal deformation zone comprised of ultramafic, mafic and felsic volcanics as well as iron formation. The drilling intersected in excess of 100 m of pervasive alteration in every hole and most of the holes ended in alteration. All the lithologies have undergone intensive pervasive hydrothermal alteration consisting of extensive sericitization, silicification and carbonatization. This results in a sequence of rocks consisting of predominately sericite, iron carbonate, silica / quartz and fuchsite. Sulphide mineralization, consisting of pyrite, pyrrhotite and sphalerite, is also associated with the alteration package
