Fremont Gold Dedicated To Gold Discovery In Nevada

Gold Bar Drilling

Gold Canyon Drilling

Background

The Gold Bar and Gold Canyon properties are both former mines in the Gold Bar District in Eureka County, Nevada, an active mining area in the Roberts Mountains within the Battle Mountain-Eureka Trend. The district contains several Carlin-style sediment-hosted gold deposits including McEwen Mining Inc.’s (“McEwen”) Gold Bar project, which is scheduled to produce 62,800 oz/annum at $770/oz starting in early 20192.

Fremont’s Gold Bar and Gold Canyon projects are adjacent to and surrounded by (respectively) McEwen’s Gold Bar development project. While McEwen’s development project and Fremont’s property share the same name, the historic Gold Bar mine is held by Fremont and produced 286,354 ounces of gold from 1986 to 19943. Fremont’s Gold Bar property comprises 4,150 hectares, hosts the historical mine and is 5 kms southwest of McEwen’s project. It also contains an historical resource of 147,000 ounces @ 2.57 g/t Au, called the Millsite deposit4 (see Fremont press release dated September 12, 2017) thought to be a faulted off-set of the former Gold Bar ore body located on the northwest side of the old pit.

Clay Newton, Fremont’s VP of states, “At both Gold Bar and Gold Canyon we have substantial opportunities to confirm and expand existing zones of mineralization, as well as target structurally prospective areas that we suspect host mineralization. For example, at Gold Canyon, a lower, mineralized zone is evident in the historical drill data, but surprisingly was not followed up, or noted in subsequent reports.

In the medium term, we will attempt to upgrade this zone to a resource, as well as test the Northwest Gold Ridge and French Trail targets which are located northeast and north of the Gold Canyon pit respectively. Numerous targets within the Gold Canyon property are untested or have been only partially tested; which in addition to the historical resource at Gold Bar gives us a very good start on building a significant resource base.”
