(TSXV: C) (the \"Company\" or \"Contact Gold\") is pleased to announce the discovery of significant gold in rock chip and channel sampling from new road cuts, extending the known footprint of gold mineralization at the West Zone on the Pony Creek gold property (\"Pony Creek\"). Contact Gold also reports the discovery of a new Carlin-type gold target, the Mustang Target.Highlights: 0.26 g/t Au over 73.2 metres in channel sampling connecting the 73 metre gap in gold mineralization with gold in drilling from previously reported drill holes PC18-50 & PC18-49 from the West Zone (see news release November 29, 2018) 0.32 g/t Au over 36.6 metres in channel sampling extending gold mineralization collared in drill hole PC18-51 (see news release November 29, 2018) to the west by 80 metres at the West Zone Second highest grade grab rock sample ever collected from Pony Creek at 1.96 g/t Au from a 0.5 metre densely silicified structure exposed in a new road cut adjacent to the collar of PC18-49. This structure will be targeted by drilling in 2019 Gold-in-soil results at Mustang infilled a 140 metre gap in the gold anomaly between lines of 2017 soil samples further strengthening the Carlin-type gold target immediately south of Gold Standard Ventures' Jasperoid Wash discoveryMustang Target is continuous along a northwest oriented soil anomaly of 2 kilometres long \"These new gold discoveries at the West Zone and Mustang Target continue to demonstrate the widespread gold mineralization, and abundance of drill targets we have generated at Pony Creek. Refinement of drill targets within large gold-in-soil anomalies using detailed mapping along with sampling of road cuts and subtle outcrops has positioned Contact Gold for continued drill success in 2019. We are excited to see that our drill intercepts from last year at the northern end of the West Zone can be correlated with extensive continuous channel samples of oxidized gold mineralization at surface. We also believe that this mineralization is wide open to the north where it dives below a mapped thrust fault,\" stated Matt Lennox-King, CEO of Contact Gold.
