Announces Gold-Silver Results from Drill Holes BVM16C-02 and BVM16C-03 and Exploration Update from Lewis Gold-Silver Project In Nevada(via TheNewswire)\n\n \nFebruary 21st, 2017 / TheNewswire / Vancouver, BC \n\n\n \nBattle Mountain Gold Inc. (the \"Company\") (TSX-V: BMG) is pleased to announce assay results from two core drill holes completed at the Lewis gold-silver property, which lies near the town of Battle Mountain in Nevada, and provide an update as to the exploration program. \n\n\n \nHighlights: \n\n\n \n\n\n-Five easterly-inclined core drill holes completed to date in the Virgin and Buena Vista - Meagher areas for a total of 2047 m with final assay results received for the entirety of the program. Final assay results, including several high-grade gold intervals, from the program's first two drill holes were released on 10th of November, 2016. An additional 601 m of core drilling has been completed since this news release.\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n-The following gold-silver drill results from the Buena Vista and Meagher areas are interpreted as leakage from gold-rich target zones at depth, localized by the intersection of steeply westerly dipping faults with the favorable stratigraphic units that host Au-Ag-Cu mineralization at Newmont's Phoenix mine, located immediately to the south. \n\n\n\n\n \nBVM16C-02 -\n\n\n \n37.8 m at 0.25 g/t Au and 6.2 g/t Ag from 6.1 m;\n\n\n \n11.7 m at 0.20 g/t Au and 15.4 g/t Ag from 293.2 m; \n\n\n \n4.7 m at 0.68 g/t Au and 21.9 g/t Ag from 329.8 m; and\n\n\n \n17.7 m at 0.15 g/t Au and 16.7 g/t Ag from 373.1m.\n\n\n \nThese Au-Ag intervals 1 are supported by anomalous As (to 2100 ppm), Pb (to 0.8 %) and Zn (to 1.7 %) in sample intervals that are typically 1.6 m wide. \n\n\n \nBVM16C-03 -\n\n\n \n1.8 m at 0.57 g/t Au and 29.5 g/t Ag from 33.3 m;\n\n\n \n9.9 m at 0.24 g/t Au and 25.3 g/t Ag from 308.8 m;\n\n\n \n12.8 m at 0.31 g/t Au and 5.8 g/t Ag from 382.5 m; and \n\n\n \n> 7.3 m at 0.16 g/t Au and 8.9 g/t Ag from 503.8 m (open at depth).\n\n\n \nThe Au-Ag intervals 1 are supported by anomalous As (to 4440 ppm), Pb (to 1.8 %) and Zn (to 1.8 %) in sample intervals that are typically 1.6 m wide. \n\n\n \n\n\n-The fifth drill hole, BVM16C-03, was suspended at 511 m due to poor weather on the 12th of January, 2017. This hole will be completed to a target depth of abo...
