(TSXV: C) (the \"Company\" or \"Contact Gold\") is pleased to announce results from the final 2 drill holes of the 2019 drill program, including the first drill hole from the Bravo Zone, at the Green Springs gold project located on the Cortez Trend in Nevada. Contact Gold Drill Highlights:3.53 g/t oxide Au over 38.10 m from 76.2 m in hole GS19-09 (Echo)Including 4.79 g/t Au over 25.91 m from 79.25 mand including 11.19 g/t Au over 6.1 m from 89.92 m1.02 oxide g/t Au over 22.86 m from 12.19 m in hole GS19-10 (Bravo)Including 1.79 g/t Au over 10.67 m from 13.72 m\"Our first drill program at Green Springs was very successful with nine of ten drill holes intersecting significant grades and widths of oxide gold mineralization across three separate targets outside of the past producing Charlie and Delta pits,\" said Matt Lennox-King, President & CEO of Contact Gold. \"Echo continues to deliver impressive gold grades and widths and is certainly our highest priority for follow up. The first cyanide solubility assays from drilling Bravo confirmed both significant gold mineralization and that gold mineralization at Bravo is oxidized, which was previously unknown. The team is incorporating these drill results into our geological model and planning an aggressive drill program for 2020.\" Drilling - Key Points: Echo Zone - GS19-09GS19-09 offset drill hole GS19-07 and extended oxide gold mineralization 25m south from the previously reported intercept (2.3 g/t Au over 70m in GS19-07, see news release January 28, 2020). The drill hole was in gold mineralization when it was lost in a void, with the last sample grading 0.65 g/t Au over 1.5mBravo Zone - GS 19-10The Bravo Zone is located 750m north of the past-producing Charlie pit and 900m southwest of the Alpha Zone. GS19-10 is the first hole Contact Gold drilled into the Bravo zone, and it returned oxidized gold mineralization with excellent cyanide assay recoveriesSituated at the northern end of the north-south Green Springs trend at a structural intersection with a major northeast striking fault that extends to the Alpha Zone. (see news release January 14, 2020) The core of the Bravo Zone is an elongated ENE-striking zone w...
