Drilling has resumed at the C.O.D. North vein, where sample results last year ranged up to 21.7 grams per tonne gold over 0.4m
The new geophysical anomaly on the Gold Drop property is centered at the intersection of three interpreted major fault-conduit structural lineaments two of which are coincident with known structures: C.O.D. vein system and a cross-fault.
The anomaly measures 1834 by 1377m and is interpreted as a pipe-like structure requiring drilling to a depth of at least 400 and up to 764 metres.
The most significant gold drill intersections (core length) from the phase 3 diamond drilling on the COD vein are as follows:
COD18-3: 14.62 g/t Au over 2.1 metres;
COD18-26: 10.30 g/t Au over 1.4 metres recovered core (within 2.35-metre interval);

Requested tellurium re-analysis of select drill core samples from the Fall 2018 diamond drill program at the Gold Drop Property, located in southern British Columbia
Multiple drill core samples from drill holes COD18-67 and COD18-70 exceeded the upper 500 grams per tonne (g/t) analytical limit for tellurium.
The 2018 Fall diamond drill program tested the COD vein. The program followed up on results from previous 2018 diamond drilling at the southern extension of the COD vein. The highlights of the 2018 Fall drill program are drill hole COD18-67 which intersected 129 g/t gold and 1,154 g/t silver over 7.28 meters core length and drill hole COD18-70 which intersected 107.5 g/t gold and 880 g/t silver over 6.90 m

is pleased to announce it has requested tellurium re-analysis of select
drill core samples from the Fall 2018 diamond drill program at the Gold
Drop Property, located in southern British Columbia. The Fall 2018
drill program was conducted at the C.O.D. Vein, located in the Gold Drop
Southwest Zone. Multiple drill core samples from drill holes COD18-67
and COD18-70 exceeded the upper 500 grams per tonne (g/t) analytical
limit for tellurium. These samples returned high grade values for gold
and silver. These samples will be re-analyzed to determine tellurium
grades. Highlights from the Fall 2018 drill program include (News

drill core samples from the high-grade gold and silver intersections of
drill holes COD-18-67 and COD-18-70 returned greater than the upper
analytical limit of 500 g/t for tellurium during initial analysis (four
acid ICP-MS analysis by ALS Canada Ltd. in North Vancouver). As a
result, the tellurium weighted average grade for these intersections
could not be determined. The Company has requested ALS Canada Ltd. to
re-analyze these samples for tellurium.
Tellurium
(Te) remains as one of the rarest elements on earth. Tellurium
production has been a by-product of copper and gold mining. The
production is limited, estimated to being on the order of 800 metric
tonnes per year. According to the USGS total production for 2007 was 107
Mtonnes.
Up to recently, the sole use of tellurium has been
alloying of other metals to increase the machinability of copper or to
decrease the corrosive action of sulfuric acid on lead.
The most
significant modern use of tellurium is the Cadmium-telluride (Cd-Te)
photovoltaic solar cells. These solar cells are the forefront of solar
power. One gigawatt (GW) of Cd-Te, at current efficiencies, would
require approximately 93 metric tons of tellurium. These cells have the
smallest carbon footprint and the shortest energy payback time of all
solar cells. The efficiency of technology is constantly improving and
the Cd-Te now takes up 5.1% of worldwide PV production.

In
the C.O.D vein system the tellurium occurs as a soft silver-grey
telluride mineral. The telluride mineral is a Silver-Tellurium-Gold
alloy speculated to be sylvanite. Whenever this mineral is observed in
the drill core the interval has elevated silver, gold and tellurium
values.

2017 and 2018 drill intersections (core length) of 50.1 g/t gold over 2.05 meters; 54.9 g/t gold over 1.47 meters; and 4.59 g/t gold over 16.03 meters at the COD Vein.
Gold and silver bearing quartz veins in multiple regions of the property with high grade gold reported (samples exceeding 1 oz. / ton gold reported)

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / November 22, 2018 / GGX Gold Corp. (TSX-v: GGX), (OTCQB: GGXXF), (FRA: 3SR2) (the “Company” or “GGX”) is pleased to announce it has completed drill holes 4 through 7 of the 2018 Fall diamond drilling program at its Gold Drop Property near Greenwood, southern British Columbia. The program is targeting the gold bearing COD Vein, the focus being an area of previous high grade gold drill intercepts (some previous samples over 1 oz./ ton gold). Highlights for the Gold Drop Property, including COD Vein are:
2017 and 2018 drill intersections (core length) of 50.1 g/t gold over 2.05 meters; 54.9 g/t gold over 1.47 meters; and 4.59 g/t gold over 16.03 meters at the COD Vein.

The 2018 Fall diamond drill program is testing the COD vein, which is located in the Gold Drop Southwest Zone. The program is following up on results from previous 2018 diamond drilling at the southern extension of the COD vein. Two of the previous 2018 holes at this southern extension (COD18-45 and COD18-46) intersected high grade gold. COD18-45 intersected of 50.1 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 375 g/t silver over 2.05 meter core length including 167.5 g/t gold, 1,370 g/t silver and >500 g/t tellurium over 0.46 meter core length (News Release of August 15, 2018). COD18-46 intersected 54.9 g/t gold and 379 g/t silver over a 1.47 meter core length, including 223 g/t gold, 1,535 g/t silver and greater than 500 g/t tellurium over a 0.30 meter core length (News Release of August 22, 2018).
The drilling is focusing on the area of drill holes COD18-45 and COD18-46. The objective is to trace the gold mineralization at depth and along strike. Additional holes are also planned to test the extension of the gold bearing vein south of these intercepts.
The drill core is currently being split and securely packaged for shipment to ALS laboratories in Vancouver, BC. There the core will be analyzed for gold by Fire Assay and for 48 multi element Four Acid and ICP-MS. Quality control (QC) samples are being inserted at regular intervals.
