(\"Antler\") (TSXV: ANTL) is pleased to provide an update on its successful 2018 exploration program within the emerging central Newfoundland gold camp. Soil geochemical surveys have identified significant gold-in-soil anomalies highlighting numerous new prospective gold target areas on the Noel Paul, Crystal Lake and Cape Ray Blocks on its Wilding Lake Gold and Regional Projects which lie on the Rogerson Structural Corridor in Newfoundland. \n2018 Summer Program\nExploration focused on reconnaissance soil sampling programs to define new prospective gold target areas within Antler's district scale 635 square kilometre land holding. Soil sample surveys have proven very successful in discovering Antler's previously reported gold occurrences at the Wilding Lake Block. The 2018 soil surveys were primarily focused along the regional gold bearing Rogerson Structural Corridor that is defined by a deep penetrating crustal fault zone, and targeted potential gold bearing structural breaks defined from airborne magnetic surveys. Large regional scale structural corridors or breaks typically can host major gold deposits, such as the renown Destor-Porcupine Break in Ontario and Quebec.\nAntler has identified geological characteristics and gold targets within it's seven other underexplored gold projects that cover approximately 140 kilometres of the regional gold bearing Rogerson Structural Corridor that are similar to those associated with its Wilding Lake Block.  Previously reported results from Antler's gold occurrences on the Wilding Lake Block include saw-cut channel sample results of 6.0 grams per tonne (\"g/t\") over 8.5 metre (\"m\") at the Alder Zone; 28.8 g/t over 1.0 m and 12.2 g/t over 0.9 m at the Taz Zone; and 101.5 g/t over 0.5 m, 93.1 g/t over 1.3 m and 37.5 g/t over 0.9 m at the Elm Zone. \nThe Rogerson Structural Corridor also hosts...
