(\"Mineral Mountain\" or the \"Company\") (TSXV: \"MMV\") is pleased to report  that drilling on its Standby Gold Project has been halted for the holiday period and is scheduled to resume on or about January 6th, 2020. Since controlled drilling started in early October, a total of 1,380 meters of drilling has been completed and over 250 samples have been submitted to the laboratory for analysis.  \n\n \n \n\n \nTarget 1 (Partially Drill Tested)\nDrill hole ST19-011 intersected a well mineralized, quartz flooded shear zone between 374 m and 608 meters immediately overlying the Rochford Iron Formation which hosts the Standby Mine gold deposit. Variably mineralized, sheared, brecciated and hydrothermally altered zones were encountered from 374 m through to 608 m down hole depth in Trunk Hole ST19-011, and are interpreted to constitute various anastomosing branches of the target East Limb Shear zone. \nCurt E. Hogge, the Company's Chief Geologist, who has logged many drill holes in the Rochford and Homestake Mine Districts commented : \"The gold/arsenopyrite mineralization from this mineralized and quartz-flooded shear zone is most unusual and extremely rare because it is hosted in the Poverty Gulch Formation immediately overlying the highly favourable gold hosted iron formation which is chemically and physically favourable for the formation of Homestake-style deposits. Based on our surface mapping and our Leapfrog software drilling down dip and along strike from this mineralized zone present a very compelling gold target!\" \nSamples have been routinely submitted to ALS Laboratory for fire assay gold and for pathfinder arsenic analyses.
