Barkerville Gold Mines Reports Whole Hole Fire Assay Results of Thirteen Diamond Drill Holes Conducted on Island Mountain in 2003

(via Thenewswire.ca)

Vancouver, BC / TNW-ACCESSWIRE / November 13 / 2014 / Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd. (TSXV: BGM) (the "Company") announced today, results from complete whole hole fire assays of thirteen diamond drill holes conducted on Island Mountain in 2003.

As mentioned in the Company's news release dated October 28, 2014, infill core sampling of diamond drill holes conducted on Island Mountain in 2003 was completed this past spring. The infill core samples were collected for 50 gram lead collection/gravimetric fire assaying of gold.

Fire assay results of the thirteen diamond drill holes have been received and significant intercepts are listed in Table 1. Highlights include:

IGM03-14

• -8.6 meters (28.2 feet) of 7.45 g/T (0.217 oz/t) gold between 26.8 and 35.4 meters (87.8 and 116.0 feet)

• -including 2.3 meters (7.6 feet) of 26.98 g/T (0.787 oz/t) gold between 26.8 and 29.1 meters (87.8 and 95.4 feet)

IGM03-15

• -6.9 meters (22.6 feet) of 5.11 g/T (0.149 oz/t) gold between 63.0 and 69.9 meters (206.8 and 229.4 feet)

• -including 5.0 meters (16.5 feet) of 6.83 g/T (0.199 oz/t) gold between 63.7 and 68.7 meters (209.0 and 225.5 feet)

• -and including 1.5 meters (5.0 feet) of 14.622 g/T (0.426 oz/t) gold between 67.2 and 68.7 meters (220.5 and 225.5 feet)

• -2.3 meters (7.5 feet) of 9.50 g/T (0.277 oz/t) gold between 99.5 and 101.8 meters (326.5 and 334.0 feet)

• -including 0.7 meters (2.4 feet) of 29.094 g/T (0.849 oz/t) gold between 100.4 and 101.2 meters (329.5 and 331.9 feet)

• -0.8 meters (2.7 feet) of 19.753 g/T (0.576 oz/t) gold between 104.2 and 105.0 meters (341.8 and 344.5 feet)

• -4.7 meters (15.3 feet) of 4.30 g/T (0.125 oz/t) gold between 107.9 and 112.6 meters (354.0 and 369.3 feet)

• -including 1.0 meters (3.3 feet) of 19.134 g/T (0.558 oz/t) gold between 111.6 and 112.6 meters (366.0 and 369.3 feet)

Note: uncut and uncapped grade; * weighted grade

All the significant intercepts of IGM03 drill holes described above and in Table 1 may not be the true width. Due to the complexity of analyzing three types of quartz veins; namely, strike, diagonal & orthogonal veins, the true width will be determined after the Company's 3D geological model is updated.

Infill core sampling of diamond drill holes conducted on Island Mountain in between 1999 and 2005 was completed in this past spring. More news on the complete holes that include metallic screen fire assay results of reject samples if available and lead collection fire assay results of previously unassayed infill core samples will be published as they become available in the following weeks. The Company is in the process of utilizing this information to update the drill hole database for a future resource estimate.

Drill core processing included descriptive logging and sampling for geochemical analyses. The NQ-size drill core was cut/split in two halves using saws at the Company's Lowhee Creek Compound in Wells-Barkerville, central B.C. One-half of the core is put in a sample bag. After all the samples are placed in the rice bags at the mine site, they are transported by BGM's personnel to a shipping company in Quesnel for trans-shipment to ACME Analytical Laboratories Ltd. in Vancouver, which is under the Bureau Veritas Group Company, for analysis. Sample preparation and geochemical assaying is done at ACME, following their own internal standards for quality control and verification. The gold assaying method uses a 1,000 gram metallic screen gold assay and 50 gram lead collection fire assay. ACME is certified under the Assayers Certification Program of B.C.
