NEWS RELEASE
Drilling Underway at ALLEGIANT's Bolo Gold Project With
Two Priority-1 Holes Complete
Vancouver, BC, Canada, September 4, 2019, Allegiant Gold Ltd. (“ALLEGIANT”) (AUAU: TSX -V)
(AUXXF: OTCQX) is pleased to announce that a drilling program has commenced at its Bolo Gold
Project, located in Nye County, Nevada. The drilling is being carried-out by Barrian Mining Corp. (TSX-
V: BARI, OTCQB: BARRF), which can earn an initial 50.01% interest in Bolo over the next 3 years, by
incurring exploration expenditures of US$4 million and making staged option payments in shares to
ALLEGIANT, totaling US$1 million. Barrian can then earn an additional 25% (total 75%) by completing
an additional US$4 million in expenditures over an additional 2 years.
The drilling program will be comprised of approximately 6,000 f eet ( ~1,800 metres) of reverse
circulation (RC) drilling primarily targeting additional mineralization at the South Mine Fault Zone
(SMFZ). Drill holes are also planned for Uncle Sam and for untested geophysical anomalies between
the SMFZ and Northern Extension Zone (Figure 1).
The recently completed Induced Polarization (IP) and Resistivity geophysical survey at Bolo defined a
significant linear conductivity high anomaly coincident with the Mine Fault Trend and with known
Carlin-type gold (+ silver) mineralization at the SMFZ . The geophysical inversions indicate good
vertical continuity of conductive anomalies ranging between 250 and 400 metres depth, below the
limit of previous drilling. The planned drill holes at the SMFZ primarily target the down -dip extension
of previously defined mineralization , coincident with the conductive anomaly (Figure 2). Step-down
drill holes are planned to increase the vertical extent of drilli ng at the SMFZ by up to 100 metres
down-dip.
Additional drill holes are planned along strike between the SMFZ and Northern Extension Zone ,
where limited historical drilling often failed to adequately test the newly defined Mine Fault
conductive anomaly. At Uncle Sam, the drill plan is designed to extend the footprint of gold and silver
mineralization north along strike and down-dip of historical high-grade surface channel samples.

The plan map shows an overview of the planned 1,800 metres of Priority-1 drill hole locations.
Priority 2 drill holes represent planned future drilling and are contingent on results from Priority-1
holes. Two Priority-1 drill holes have been completed.

The section map shows two examples of planned drill holes at the SMFZ, designed to extend drill -
defined mineralization up to 100 metres down-dip.
* The true width of mineralization is estimated to be approximately 50% of drilled width.
About ALLEGIANT
ALLEGIANT owns 100% of 10 highly -prospective gold projects in the United States, 7 of which are
located in the mining -friendly jurisdiction of Nevada. ALLEGIANT's flagship Eastside project hosts a
large and expanding gold resource, is district scale, and is located in an area of excellent
infrastructure. Preliminary metallurgical testing indicates that both oxide and sulphide gold
mineralization at Eastside is amena ble to heap leaching. ALLEGIANT plans to announce a
comprehensive corporate update in the next 10 days.
