BLUE LAGOON PROVIDES HISTORICAL DETAILS ON ITS
GORDON LAKE HIGH GRADE GOLD PROPERTY IN THE
NORTHWEST TERRITORIES
Vancouver, British Columbia December 19, 2019 - Blue Lagoon Resources Inc. (“Blue Lagoon” or
the “Company”) (CSE: BLLG; FSE:7BL; OTC: BLAGF) is pleased to provide additional information
with regards to the Company’s newly optioned Gordon Lake Gold Project (the “Property”) located 110
km north of Yellowknife.
The Property consists of 2 contiguous mineral leases located 110 Km northeast of the town of
Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories (NWT) of Canada. Historically, this territory of Canada
produced some significant gold mines in Canadian history including the following:
• Con Mine (1938 - 2003), which became the first gold mine developed in the Northwest
Territories and was located just south of Yellowknife and produced over 5 million ounces of
gold.
• The “Giant” mine claims which lead to the production of 7 million ounces of gold and
became one of the longest continuous gold mining operations in Canadian mining history.
• The Discovery Mine (1949 - 1969) located 84 kilometers northeast of Yellowknife produced
one million ounces of gold.
Mineralization hosted on adjacent and/or nearby properties is not necessarily indicative of mineralization
hosted on the Company’s property.
About the Gordon Lake Gold Property
The Gordon Lake property lies at the southern end of the Slave Structural Province within the
Yellowknife Basin and is part of the Yellowknife Supergroup supracrustals (2.7 Ga) which form the bulk
and core of the Yellowknife Basin and is situated along the eastern edge of a rift-like basin bounded by
mafic volcanics.
The exploration target on the Gordon Lake property is shear zone hosted gold mineralization. The
minimum dimensions of the mineralized zones explored to date are 140m long, from 1m to 11m in width
and a minimum depth of 215m.
To date, approximately $2 million have been spent on the property and 17 zones of anomalous
mineralization have been identified so far, with only three of those zones having been drilled.

Figure 1 below shows a schematic longitudinal section showing the relationship between the Main, South
and Union zones on the Gordon Lake property. This section represents about 800m of strike length
between the Union Zone and the Main Zone. Drilling intersected visible gold throu ghout, and the
mineralization is open along strike and at depth.
Other areas of mineralized quartz veining and quartz stock work have been located however, exploration
consisted of limited mapping and several wide spaced channel or grab samples, including a chip sample
grading 13 g/t gold over 1.5 meters, and a grab sample returning 55.4 g/t gold.
Also included in Figure 1 are historical resource estimates. This figure demonstrates the highly
anomalous value of those zones already drilled and the down dip potential for adding significant value
near term.
Figures 2 and Table 1 below show a cross section of the South Zone (#9Vein) which shows anomalous
values from drill intercepts to a depth of 215M.

The historical estimates in the above Figure 1 was completed for Pacific Trans-Ocean Resources Ltd. by
M. Balog consulting geologist in 1989. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the
historical estimates as a current mineral resource as defined in National instrument 43-101. Additional
analysis of data and data verification work is required, in addition to additional drilling, in order to
evaluate past data utilized for historical resource estimates and to prepare a current mineral estimate.
There is no current mineral resource or mineral reserve on the Gordon lake Property as such terms are
defined under National instrument 43-101.

The above sample results are considered historic information and a qualified person has not yet verified
the data disclosed on behalf of the Company, including sampling, analytical and test data underlying the
historic information.
There are 54 gold showings in the Yellowknife Supergroup surrounding Gordon Lake with five past
minor producers in the near vicinity of Gordon Lake including the Tracy No.1, Goodrock, DAF Vein,
Camlaren Mine, and Burnt Island.
The historic Discovery Mine is located approximately 45km WSW of the Gordon Lake and represents the
closest analog of significant mineralization and or production to the Gordon Lake property. One of the ore
zones at the Discovery mine was 60 meters long, averaged 1.3 meters in thickness and mined to a depth
of 1,525 meters (see table 1). The Discovery deposit is a classic lode gold quartz vein hosted in Burwash
metasedimentary rocks like those at Gordon Lake. The Discovery Mine was developed to a depth of
>1,200 m before ceasing operations following the loss of the mill complex to fire. Production from 1949
to 1969 totaled one million oz of gold produced from one million tons of ore*. The Table 2 comparison
highlights how important exploring the No. 9 Vein at depth can quickly add value to the overall project.

**The potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature, and there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resources, and it is
uncertain whether further exploration will result in the targets being delineated as a mineral resource.
Regionally, there are some similarities b etween Gordon Lake and the large gold deposits in the
Yellowknife district including the Con and Giant mines, which combined to produce over 13 million
ounces of gold at a grade of 16 g/t Au. Though these mines are hosted by volcanics within the
Yellowknife district, the ore zones are found in mineralized and silicified shears (quartz veins) in discreet
mineralized ore shoots measuring 1-18m in thickness, up to 180m along strike and to a maximum depth
of 600m (http://nvp-pgf.org/en/canada/character/description). At Gordon Lake the minimum dimensions
of the mineralized zones explored to date are 140m long, from 1m to 11m in width and a minimum depth
of 215m. Mineralization is also shear zone hosted (albeit hosted in Burwash metasediments).
The Gordon Lake property remains open at depth and along strike.
“Gordon Lake presents us a great opportunity to add shareholder value as we work towards furthering this
project, which to date, has only been explored on 3 of the 17 zones identified,” said Rana Vig, President
& CEO of Blue Lagoon Resources. “It’s also interesting that the nearby Discovery Mine was drilled
down to over 1500 meters whereas Gordon Lake has had limited drilling down to only 205 meters in only
one of the three drilled zones. The potential to expand the known mineralized areas through drilling for
deeper intersections and testing continuity of the known mineralized zones at depth. This is what made
this project an attractive acquisition target for the Company exciting. And that’s what junior exploration is
all about” he said.
