K9 Gold 2020 Exploration Program Update for Stony Lake
November 9, 2020 – K9 Gold Corp. (KNC: TSX-V) (5GP:GR: FSE) (WDFCF: OTC) (“K9” or the “Company”)
is pleased to update the 2020 exploration program for the Stony Lake Project, Central Newfoundland. The
current program consists of till sampling, mapping, orthophotos, LiDAR, and VTEM airborne geophysics.
Overburden Drilling Management (ODM) has completed the preliminary phase of till sampling. The
program followed up on the compilation of historic exploration work on the property that has identified
a large area with highly anomalous gold values in tills collected in 1989 by Teck Explorations Limited.
These samples are clustered around the Island Pond – Moccasin Lake area in the central part of the
property. Calculated visible gold assays, by ODM, yielded 15 samples with values over 1500 ppb, four of
which had values of 11 .8, 12 .8, 14 .1 and 19 .5 g/t Au. Analysis of a non -magnetic heavy mineral
concentrate by Chemex Labs yielded 16 samples with values >1000 ppb Au. Four of these samples were
reported as >10,000 ppb Au, which was the upper detection limit.
The first phase of mapping and sampling to follow up on the anomalous 2019 results covering the north
east section of the property is complete, with samples shipped for whole rock and geochemical analysis.
Leading Edge Geomatics of Lincoln, New Brunswick has completed the LiDAR and Imagery survey over the
Stony Lake Project. The survey will assist with ground mapping to extr apolate geomorphology and both
regional and local geologic structures. On the property, large areas of significant gold mineralization occur
in altered Botwood sediments and Quartz Feldspar Porphyry intrusives associated with intense
silicification, sericite- chlorite-carbonate alteration and a strong pyrite -arsenopyrite mineralogical
association. The features indicate epizonal/mesozonal temperatures for the hydrothermal fluids and
support the exploration model of hydrothermal fluids leaking upwards into the Botwood sediments from
a deeper igneous intrusive source. Quality Control and data processing is underway.
Geotech Ltd of Aurora, Ontario has completed 100% of the planned Versatile Time -Domain
Electromagnetic (VTEM™ Plus) survey.
About Stony Lake Project
The Stony Lake project lies within the Cape Ray/Valentine Lake structural trend in Central Newfoundland,
lying parallel to that of New Found Gold’s Queensway project, along the prolific Dog Bay Line. The project
covers 13,625 ha and 27 kilometers of favorable trend between Sokoman’s Moosehead discovery to the
northeast and Marathon's Valentine Lake deposit to the southwest.
Prior to the 2020 field season, airborne geophysical coverage, with follow -up ground prospecting and
sampling, led to the ident ification of eight area s of highly anomalous to high grade gold mineralization
targets. The gold mineralization is hosted in a variety of environments, including quartz -feldspar
porphyries, reduced sandstones, quartz stockworks and quartz veins. The property hosts both widespread
low grade mineralization (up to 4.0 g/t Au) within the Botwood Formation and high grade veins (>4.0 g/t

and the immediately adjacent Sokoman Minerals Moosehead discovery.
