NewsFremont Acquires Additional Ground in the Gold Bar District Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 12, 2018) - Fremont Gold Ltd. (TSXV: FRE) (FSE: FR2) (OTC Pink: USTDF) ("Fremont" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has staked additional claims in the Gold Bar District, Eureka County Nevada: The Roberts Creek claim block comprises 132 mining claims in the Gold Bar District one km south of McEwen Mining Inc's Gold Bar development project; The claim block covers a structurally permissive zone on a horst that strikes south from the McEwen's Gold Bar development project. Based on gravity data, this horst is under shallow cover, is parallel to, and similar in shape and orientation to the horst which hosts the original Gold Bar deposit held by Fremont; Within the Roberts Creek claim block jasperoid occurs as outrop and abundant float. Jasperoid is often associated with Carlin-style deposits and was one of the vectors used to discover the original Gold Bar deposit; A recent Fremont ground magnetic survey at Roberts Creek highlights a magnetic low trough, which may indicate hydrothermal alteration; Three significant structural trends intersect at Roberts Creek: a north-northwest striking fault that transects McEwen's Cabin Creek gold deposit (the Cabin Creek fault), a very prominent northeast fault/topographic lineament that transects the Mount Hope porphyry molybdenum deposit, and the magnetic low trough. The acquisition of these claims brings Fremont's total land holdings in the Gold Bar District to 5,348 ha. Fremont recently announced drill results of 25.9m @ 4.66 g/t Au (within 41.2m @ 3.08 g/t Au) at Gold Bar and 16.8m @ 1.9 g/t Au, at the nearby Gold Canyon project.

The new frontier for gold discoveries within the basin and range of Nevada and Utah, is in the basins and under cover. The ranges have been fairly well prospected since the initial gold discoveries in the 1800s, while in the past 30 years most of the large, world-class discoveries were made under cover starting with Pipeline and Sleeper in the 1980's and more recently Barrick Gold Corporation's 8M ounce Gold Rush deposit. Future discoveries will likely be revealed beneath gravel in the basins or under post-mineral volcanic rocks. Fremont management is at the leading edge of this understanding and very excited about the possibilities for discovery of new gold deposits under shallow cover in the Gold Bar District and elsewhere." Next Steps: A soil survey will be conducted to confirm structure interpretations and highlight drill targets.
