(\"Winston Gold\" or the \"Corporation\") (CSE:WGC)(CSE:WGC.CN)(CNSX:WGC)(OTCQB:WGMCF) is pleased to announce initial drill results from its 10-hole drilling campaign it commenced in August on the Company's wholly-owned Winston Gold Property, near Helena Montana.\n Recent drill results have more than doubled the strike of the Parallel Vein to 385 ft. and the vertical extent has increased from 65 ft. to 277 ft.\n \"We are very pleased with the drill results received to date,\" commented Murray Nye, CEO and Director of Winston Gold Mining. \"The results have not only significantly expanded the strike length of the Parallel vein but also identified a number of previously unknown veins between the Block 93 and the Parallel veins.\"\n Hole W78 was recently completed and assays are pending. It was collared on the same drill pad as hole W77 and tested the southwestern extension of the Parallel Vein. Hole W79 has just been collared on a new drill pad to the west and drilling is now underway. The last two holes of the drill program should be completed within the next month.\n Hole W75 was drilled to test the northeastern extension of the Parallel Vein intersected high-grade gold mineralization in the structure and effectively doubled its strike length from 150 ft. to almost 330 ft. Refer to attached drill plan map. The vertical extent of the vein was also increased from 65 ft. to 277 ft.\n Hole W75 intersected 1 ft. averaging 1.756 ounces per ton (60.2 g/t) gold within a 4-ft. section of the Parallel vein. This intersection occurred 114 ft. down hole. Two other holes (W74 and W76) were drilled from the same pad to test the northeastern extension of the Parallel vein but intersected previously unknown workings at 47 ft. down-hole and were abandoned. Due to the variable nature of vein orientation, the true width of mineralization is not known at this time.\n Hole W75 also intersected a vein at 53 ft. down-hole located just above the workings where holes W74 and W76 were lost. It averaged 0.281 oz./ton (9.63 g/t) gold over 3 ft. including a 1 ft. interval averaging 0.656 oz./ton (22.5 g/t) gold over 1 ft.\n Hole W77 was drilled to test both ...
