(TSX-V: BAY; OTCQB: ATBHF) (\"Aston Bay\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the final results of its recently completed drill program at the Buckingham Gold Project located in central Virginia, USA. Six large diameter (HQ) diamond drill holes totaling 878 metres (m) were completed in April, with partial results from quartz veined intervals previously reported (see June 5, 2019 Aston Bay release). Results from the remaining portions of the drill holes are presented here.All six drill holes intersected significant near-surface gold mineralization, either in quartz veins or in wider zones of sericite-quartz-pyrite alteration (see Table 1 below).Table 1. 2019 Buckingham Project Drilling Summary with Significant Gold Intercepts.

Even more notable, this outcropping zone sits within a much larger gold-in-soil anomaly, suggesting the potential for a much larger system concealed under cover. We look forward to expanding on these results with comprehensive ge...
