GFG Expands Land Position Along Main Gold Corridors at the Dore Gold Project West
of Timmins, Ontario
May 10, 2018, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada: GFG Resources Inc. (TSX-V: GFG) (OTCQB: GFGSF) (“ GFG” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce that it has staked highly prospective claims adjacent to its Dore Gold Project, located 20 kilometeres
northwest of IAMGOLD’s Cote Lake gold project and 25 kilometres southeast of Goldcorp’s Borden gold project . From the recent
staking program, t he Company added 8 0 square kilometres (8,000 hectares) that host key regional structures and a similar geologic
setting to gold deposits and occurrences near to the Dore Gold Project. (See Figures 1 and 2). The Company’s total land position at the
Dore Gold Project is now approximately 205 square kilometres (20, 500 hectares).
The expanded Dore Gold Project now covers the interpreted westward extensions of the Rundle and Rideout shear zones. Both of these
structural corridors are prospective for gold mineralization. To the north and east of the property, the Rundle Shear Zone hosts the past-
producing Rundle Gold Mine and the high-grade Kenty gold deposit, confirming the prospectiv ity of this structure. Similarly, the
Rideout Shear Zone has proven to be a fertile structure for gold mineralization and hosts the multi-million-ounce Cote Lake gold deposit.
The areas covered by the new claims were targeted from an in ternal review and analysis of regional airborne magnetic data and
government till sample geochemistry.
Brian Skanderbeg, President and CEO of GFG, commented, “The additional claims are strategically located adjacent to our current Dore
Gold Project and aligned with our district consolidation strategy. This area of the Abitibi is relatively underexplored and yet has all th e
geological hallmarks to host multi -million-ounce gold deposits. Our exp anded land package presents a great opportunity for GFG to
make a significant discovery and build value for our shareholders.”
The Dore Gold Project has seen limited previous exploration work. As such, planned field work will be directed at collecting regional
till samples and LIDAR imagery which will provide the necessary information to focus prospecting efforts and develop drill targets.
