The Troilus North Property is an early stage exploration property located adjacent to the former Troilus Mine, recently acquired by Troilus Gold Corporation (\"Troilus Gold\"; TSX-V TLG).\n\n\n\nThe Troilus North Property consists of 209 contiguous claims totaling 11,309 ha located 160 km north of the town of Chibougamau in the province of Quebec. It is in the northwest section of the Val-d'Or mining district within the Frotet-Evans Greenstone Belt. The Troilus North Property is easily accessible from regional Trans Taiga road going from Chibougamau to Nemiscau and from a well maintained secondary gravel road to the former Troilus Mine, up to the southern boundary of the Troilus North Property. \n\n\n\nChimata Gold Corporation completed an NI 43-101 Technical Report on the property titled, \"Technical Report Pertaining to the Troilus North Property, Troilus Frotet Volcano-sedimentary Belt, Opatica Geological Sub-Province, Quebec, Canada\", effective date October 10, 2017 (the \"Chimata Technical Report\").

Based on this work and the Chimata Technical Report, Emgold plans a 2018 work program that will focus initially on three priority exploration targets at Troilus North.
