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);

Fortis Metals,
the world’s leading producer of minor metals, recently forecast a
tellurium supply deficit that, “as of 2020 could be as big as a
staggering 370 metric tonnes.â€
Noting the rapidly-growing use of tellurium for thin-film solar panels, Fortis stated:
           “At the moment, we are still seeing (tellurium) inventories in China but these are  being eaten away by the two main suppliers of First Solar (the world’s largest thin-film solar manufacturer). It is only a matter of time before the market will understand the new dynamics and prices will start to reflect the growing deficit. We would not be surprised to see prices break the previous record seen in 2011.â€
GGX
has produced some of the highest grade drill intercepts in the world
over the 2018 drill season, which compliment High Grade Gold intercepts
of:
COD18-67: 129 g/t gold, 1,154 g/t silver and 823 g/t tellurium over 7.28-metre core length;
COD18-70: 107 g/t gold, 880 g/t silver and 640 g/t tellurium over 6.90-metre core length.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 18, 2019 / GGX Gold Corp. (TSX-V: GGX), (OTCQB: GGXXF), (FRA: 3SR2) (the “Company” or “GGX“)
is pleased to announce it has received tellurium analytical results for
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. The tellurium results are re-analyses of drill
core samples from drill holes COD18-67 and COD18-70 which initially
exceeded the upper 500 grams per tonne (g/t) analytical limit for
tellurium. The re-analyses confirm high-grade tellurium for these drill
holes, being associated with high-grade gold and silver (gold and silver
results reported in News Releases of January 11 and 18, 2019):
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 129.1 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
meters core length (News Releases of January 11and 18, 2019). Both holes
were drilled slightly northeast from the same site (COD18-67 at a
50-degree dip and COD-18-70 at a 54-degree dip) to intersect the
northwest trending COD Vein at a shallower angle, the objective to test
the continuity of the quartz veining and mineralization.
Fourteen
drill core samples from the high-grade gold and silver intersections of
drill holes COD18-67 and COD18-70 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 grades for these intersections
could not be determined from initial analyses. ALS Canada Ltd. recently
re-analyzed these 14 samples for tellurium by four acid ICP-AES. These
new analytical results confirm high grade tellurium within the
high-grade gold and silver intersections. For drill hole COD18-67, the
near-surface interval of 23.19-30.47m (7.28 meters core length) graded
823.4 g/t tellurium. For drill hole COD18-70, the near-surface interval
of 22.57-29.47m (6.90 meters core length) graded 640.5 g/t Tellurium.

Tellurium
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.
PHOTOVOLTAICS REPORT, Freiburg, 27 August 2018
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.

The
Gold Drop Property covers 5,628 hectares of geologically prospective
ground in the well-mineralized Greenwood District, and hosts 8 or more
known low-sulfide, gold-bearing veins or vein systems. These historical
showings have had limited modern exploration. Recently, the Greenwood
area has had a renewed interest by major and junior companies exploring
precious and base metals in the district.
The
2018 diamond drill program carried out by the Company focused on the
C.O.D vein. The vein was first identified to be a target of interest in
the spring of 2017. Following initial sampling of the vein the Company
conducted mechanical trenching and drilling. The results of the 2017
program were encouraging and the Company launched a winter drill program
in 2018. The program followed up on the 2017 drilling. The Company
completed additional diamond drilling during the fall of 2018,
completing a series of exploration holes south of the C.O.D trench. Here
the holes intercepted the vein, successfully extending the vein by 160
meters.
During
2018 a total of 71 diamond drill holes were completed on the C.O.D vein
structure and 19 diamond drill holes were completed on the Everest vein
for a total of 5,616 meters of drilling. The highlights of the program
are COD18-67 that intersected 129 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 1,154
g/t silver over 7.28 meters core length and COD18-70 which intersected
107.5 g/t gold and 880 g/t silver over 6.90 meters core length. The

Note:
Due to some tellurium drill core analyses being greater than the upper
analytical limit of 500 g/t the weighted average value for tellurium
could not be calculated for some intervals.
The
2018 trenching program was completed on targets located during the 2017
soil geochemical sampling program. The most significant discovery
during the trenching is the southern extension of the historic Gold Drop
Vein. Historic production from the Gold Drop Vein System is reported to
be 335 tonnes mined during 1926-1988 (mainly during 1933-1941) with
5,020 grams of gold (14.99 g/t gold) and 35,894 grams of silver (107.1
g/t silver) recovered. Grab samples collected from this vein during 2018
assayed up to 3.37 g/t gold and 43.9 g/t silver.
The
company completed a thorough trenching program in the C.O.D North area.
This area is located approximately 600m to the north of the C.O.D
drilling worksite. Here the company conducted trenching on targets
identified during the 2017 soil geochemical sampling program.
Several
quartz vein outcroppings were located and sampled in the trenches. The
highlights include grab sample 112753 of rusty quartz vein that assayed
15.45 g/t gold, 159 g/t silver and 114.5 g/t tellurium; and sample
112759, a chip sample across a 40 centimeter wide northeast-southwest

Results for holes COD18-61 to COD18-64 completed during the 2018 November diamond drilling program at its Gold Drop Property
COD18-45: 50.1 g/t gold and 375 g/t silver over 2.05 meters.
COD18-46: 54.9 g/t gold and 379 g/t silver over 1.47 meters.
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 9, 2019 / GGX Gold Corp. (TSX-V: GGX), (OTCQB: GGXXF), (FRA: 3SR2) (the “Company” or “GGX“)
is pleased to announce it has received drill core analytical results
for drill holes COD18-61 to COD18-64 completed during the 2018 November
diamond drilling program at its Gold Drop Property near Greenwood,
southern British Columbia. The drilling program that was completed at
the end of November last year consisted of 11 drill holes (COD18-61 to
COD18-71) targeting the gold bearing COD vein, the focus being an area
of previous high grade gold drill intercepts. Highlights from 2018
drilling at the COD vein and the Gold Drop Property include:
COD18-45: 50.1 g/t gold and 375 g/t silver over 2.05 meters.
COD18-46: 54.9 g/t gold and 379 g/t silver over 1.47 meters.
COD18-63: 28.0 g/t gold and 424 g/t silver over 1.17 meter core length.
Gold
and silver bearing quartz veins in multiple regions of the property
with high grade gold reported (samples exceeding 1 oz. / ton gold
reported).
Historic gold and silver production at the Gold Drop, North Star, Amandy and Roderick Dhu vein systems.
The
2018 Fall diamond drilling program tested the COD vein, located in the
Gold Drop Southwest Zone. The program followed up on results from
earlier 2018 diamond drilling at the southern extension of the COD vein.
Two earlier 2018 holes at the southern extension, COD18-45 and COD18-46
(which were drilled at 45 and 50 degree dips to the west from the same
site), intersected high grade gold and silver plus significant amounts
of tellurium. 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).
Intersections
exceeding 1 g/t gold for drill holes COD18-61 to COD18-64 are listed in
the table below. Since true widths cannot be accurately determined from

All
of the 2018 Fall drill holes were collared within 25 meters of holes
COD18-45 and COD-46. Holes COD18-61 to COD18-66 were drilled to the west
and slightly northwest at dips of 45 to 60 degrees to intersect the
approximately northeast striking COD vein. Holes COD18-67 to COD18-71
were drilled at dips of 45 to 60 degrees slightly northeast to intersect
the COD vein at a shallower angle, the purpose being to test the
continuity of the quartz veining and mineralization. The high grade
intercept of drill hole COD18-63 is at approximate 20 meter vertical
depth (similar depth of high grade intercept of drill hole COD18-45) and
approximately 5 meters north of the high grade intercept of drill hole
COD18-45.
The COD vein system is open to the northeast and at depth and possible open to the southwest.
The
drill core was split at a secure location in Greenwood with half core
samples securely packaged and delivered to ALS Canada Ltd. in Vancouver,
BC for preparation and analysis. The core samples were analyzed for
gold by Fire Assay-AA and for 48 elements (including silver and
tellurium) by Four Acid – ICP-MS. Samples exceeding 100 g/t silver were
re-analyzed for silver by Four Acid – ICP-AES. Quality control (QC)
samples were inserted at regular intervals.
