[{"type":"text","content":"GGX Gold Initiates Trenching Program on the Gold Drop Property - Southern British ColumbiaVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 17, 2018 / GGX Gold Corp. (TSX-V: GGX), (OTCQB: GGXXF), (FRA: 3SR2) (the \"Company\" or \"GGX\") is pleased to announce it has commenced the fall 2018 trenching program on the Gold Drop property near Greenwood, southern British Columbia. Trenching is being conducted in the east region of the property in the area of gold bearing veins. Property highlights include: Gold and silver bearing veins in various region of the property with recent and historic samples exceeding 1 oz./ ton gold. Positive results from recent drilling the COD and Everest gold bearing veins including intersections of 50.1 g/t gold over 2.05m and 54.9 g/t gold over 1.47m. Excellent infrastructure with property bordering the town of Greenwood. Several mills in the district within trucking distance of the property. The focus of the fall 2018 trenching program is the Silent Friend and Ken gold bearing veins near the Gold Drop and North Star gold and silver bearing vein systems. Most of the historic work and production has occurred at the Gold Drop and North Star vein systems. The 2017 prospecting program yielded significant results including 297 grams per tonne gold (g/t) and 1290 g/t silver sampled in dump pile quartz from what is believed to be the southern Silent Friend showing. Samples from a mineshaft dump pile north of this exposure assayed 6.98 g/t gold and 38.6 g/t silver. Samples collected from a mineshaft to the south, speculated to be the Ken mineshaft, assayed 4.47 g/t gold and 23.0 g/t tonne silver (News release November 8, 2017). Visible gold in Silent Friend dump pile (297 g/t Gold and 1290 g/t Silver)The objective of the program is to locate and trace the quartz veins in between the historical workings. Modern trenching has proven to be useful on the Gold Drop Property by extending veins where historical trenches failed. An example is the recent discovery of the Gold Drop extension south of historic workings (News Release of September 20, 2018).David Martin, P.Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101, is responsible for the technical information contained in this News Release.
