[{"type":"text","content":"Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 20, 2017) - ML Gold Corp. (TSXV: MLG) (\"ML Gold\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to provide an update on all the 2017 Exploration Projects including the Palmetto Gold Project in Esmeralda county, Nevada, USA, Pinnacle Reef Copper Gold and Aspen Gold Projects in Central BC, and the Block 103 Iron Ore Project in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. Palmetto Gold Project Ground work began early in 2017 on the Palmetto project which included preliminary field examinations and target generation. Following the preliminary field work, a drilling program was initiated to complete a first ever resource calculation. ML Gold successfully completed this program in June and followed with the maiden resource of approximately 350,000 gold equivalent ounces (see release dated October 2, 2017). Presently, the Company is completing the technical report to accompany the resources. ML Gold has just received a positive decision on its recent drill permit to conduct a second phase drill program at Palmetto. The phase two program is designed to grow the current resource where there is potential to add significant volumes of mineralized material, and to test parallel structures within the developing Palmetto Gold Trend. Pinnacle Reef Copper Gold Project 2017 field work at the Pinnacle Reef project was undertaken in two phases from March through early September. The drilling was designed to test certain areas within the recently identified, highly anomalous, and widely dispersed chargeability anomalies. These anomalies were generated from the combination of new work completed by the Company in April and the purchase of historic data. From the combination of these initiatives the Company has amassed an area with highly anomalous chargeability covering approximately 6 by 7 kilometres. 2017 drilling focused on the southern portion of the \"donut anomaly\" where strong propylitic alteration exhibiting epidote and pyrite mineralization as vein fillings and disseminations existed. The easternmost hole of the five hole program encountered localized phyllic and potassic alteration with one notable zone of secondary biotite and chalcopyrite immediately west of the historical Aplite Creek occurrence (BC MINEFILE No 093N 085). This hole did not reach its target depth as it was unable to pass through a...
