[{"type":"text","content":"Antler Gold Announces the Identification of High Priority Exploration Targets on Its Central Erongo Gold Project, Karibib Region, NamibiaHalifax, Nova Scotia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 27, 2020) - Antler Gold Inc. (TSXV: ANTL) (\"Antler\" or the \"Company\"), is pleased to announce the delineation of seven high priority targets for exploration on its Erongo Gold Central Project (\"Central Project\") in the southern central zone of the Damara orogenic belt. Geological interpretation taking cognisance of fluid source, pathway and trap together with stratigraphic and lithological positioning in relation to favourable structural settings was crucial in successfully defining the seven prospects on the Central Project. Portions of the Central Project have limited outcrop due to the presence of Quaternary cover. In these areas interpretation and extrapolation of geology are essential to prioritising and directing future exploration activities. Dan Whittaker, President and CEO of Antler commented, \"We're pleased to have generated seven quality targets on the Central Project. Some of these targets we expect can be advanced to the drill stage by late summer 2020. Generally, the significance of low order gold anomalism, especially in areas under cover has historically been poorly understood and has often resulted in inadequate follow‐up. Finally, we are also awaiting soil, rock and calcrete sample results on our Western Project which will factor into the target generation exercise there.\"The figure below indicates the location of each of the prospects in relation to historical soil anomalies defined to date and a description of each follows.Figure 1To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/5124/56646_fd0aff6be445aa1d_002full.jpgGold Prospects Delineated to Date C1 - 9 km strike length of the Kranzberg Gold Trend. A Meta-sediment hydrothermal gold system structurally controlled along the Kranzberg Fault Zone. A number of significant gold in soil anomalies, with support from rock samples containing gold, are defined along the fault zone. Best historical rock chip assay results: 80 g/t Au, 6 g/t Au, 5.4g/t Au & 4.45g/t Au.C2 & C3 - 15 km strike length of the highly prospective Karibib - Kuiseb contact, including in the vicinity of the southern portion of the Kranzberg Fault zo...
