Hanstone GOLD Announces Additional High Grade Intercepts Including an Outstanding Interval of 113.70 G/T GOLD over 1.28 Metres at Its Flagship Doc Property IN Bc’S Prolific Golden Triangle
HANSTONE GOLD ANNOUNCES ADDITIONAL HIGH GRADE INTERCEPTS
INCLUDING AN OUTSTANDING INTERVAL OF 113.70 G/T GOLD OVER 1.28 METRES
AT ITS FLAGSHIP DOC PROPERTY IN BC’S PROLIFIC GOLDEN TRIANGLE
Vancouver, BC, Canada, December 3, 2020, Hanstone Gold Corp. (TSX.V: HANS) (“Hanstone” or
the “Company”) is pleased to provide assay results from the balance of the Company’s drill holes
completed in the 2020 drill program at the Company’s Doc Property, located in B ritish Columbia ’s
prolific Golden Triangle Mining District.

Ray Marks, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hanstone Gold, stated:
“This second round of 2020 drill results further confirms the existence of high grade gold
mineralization on the Doc Property. These results have exceeded management’s expectations
having r eturned exceptional intersections of gold. The reported gold intercepts support
management’s previous geologic expectations that the D oc Property hosts significant mineralized
systems, both near surface and at greater depths.”
Data from this round of results from the remaining drill holes totalling 1,251 metres has exceeded the
positive results from the first set of drill holes announced on November 12 , 2020. Drillhole assay
results of gold intersection highlights from this final round of 2020 drilling, presented below, include:

Notes:
Au analysis is by fire assay with Gravimetric finish (FA/Gravimetric 2 AT)
Ag analysis is by aqua regia digestion ICP multi-element analysis (TSL Labs Method ICP-MS Aqua Regia)
Ag values >100 ppm were reanalyzed by fire assay with Gravimetric finish (FA/Gravimetric 1 AT)
As disclosed in the Company’s November 12, 2020 news release, this year’s summer drill program
results included numerous additional intersections ranging from 0.50 to 0.99 g/t gold that were not
included in Table 2 above. Complete assays of all mineralize d sections will be posted on the
Company’s website as soon as all the data is fully tabulated and reviewed.
Drill Holes DC-20-04, DC-20-05 and DC-20-06 were targeting the same mineralized vein system, which
has now been defined with over 180m of strike, with approximately 100m outcropping on surface on the
Doc Zone. This mineralized vein system remains open downdip and along strike. Refer to Table 2
above and Figure 1 below.
Figure 1: 2020 Drill Collar Plan Map
The 2021 drill program will be designed to f urther define and expand on the Doc Zone vein system as
well as additional high grade zones as disclosed in the Company’s November 12, 2020 news release.
To this end, the Company has commissioned Axiom Exploration Group Ltd. to conduct a state-of-the-
art UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) drone magnetic survey of the various known vein systems on the
property. These survey results are expected in January of 2021 and will assist in drill target delineation
for the 2021 exploration season.
Quality Assurance, Quality Control & Technical Disclosure:
The 2020 drilling and exploration was conducted under the supervision of Tyler Fiolleau, P.Geo. and
Darren Slugsoki, P.Geo., both of Axiom Exploration Group Ltd. A thorough chain -of-custody and
QA/QC program was carried out during the 2020 drill program on all the HQ diameter, half -core split
samples. The implemented QA/QC procedures included the insertion of certified standard control
samples, duplicates, and blan ks to ensure proper calibration of lab equipment. Sample analyses are
being conducted by TSL Laboratories Inc. in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Gold analysis is determined by
fire assay with Gravimetric finish (FA/Gravimetric 2 AT) . Silver analysis is determine d by aqua regia
digestion ICP multielement analysis (TSL Labs Method ICP-MS Aqua Regia), Ag values exceeding 100
ppm were reanalyzed by fire assay with Gravimetric finish (FA/Gravimetric 1 AT).
The technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Doug Engdahl,
