HARVEST EXTENDS FLAGSHIP EMERSON PROPERTY CLAIMS TO THE SOUTH;
CORPORATE AND TECHNICAL PRESENATIONS POSTED ON WEBSITE
Vancouver, British Columbia / October 14, 2020 - Harvest Gold Corporation (TSX.V: HVG)
(“Harvest Gold” or the “ Company”) is pleased to announce it has staked two additional
adjoining claims to the south of its Emerson property in the interior plateau of British Columbia.
With the new staking, the Emerson property has now expanded to over 56 km2 in size.
Henry Awmack, P.Eng., developer of the Emerson, Goathorn, and Jacobite projects and a
member of Harvest Gold’s technical adviso ry board and states : “The Emerson property is
large enough to cover the Blackwater gold an d New Prosperity porphyry target s as presently
envisioned, but prior staking by David Caulfield and I at the south end of the property did not
include potential anomalies that extend to the south and west off the current IP grid as shown by
the accompan ying figure. These are two areas that Harvest Gold has now added to provide
several hundred metres more coverage.”
Harvest President and CEO Rick Mark states: “Henry is constantly imagining what Discovery
will look like for Harvest Gold and w e have followed his advice t o reach further south at
Emerson, As well, we are now ready to expand the audience for our new Harvest Gold story and
have posted our October, 2020 Corporate Presentation and each Property’s Technical
Presentations on the home page of the website at www.harvestgoldcorp.com.”
NEW EMERSON CLAIMS
Emerson Creek Canyon Cu -Au mineralization has been sporadically explored in Emerson Creek
canyon (SE corner of the current Emerson property) since the 1920’s. The b est-described
program was by Lacana in 1987 who identified a felsic volcanic package, which appears to be
part of the same Kasalka Group felsic volcanic package that hosts the Blackwater target on the
Emerson property.
Lacana drilled 7 shallow holes with d isappointing results, although one hole hit 0.5 m @ 8.9
g/tonne Au in a clay-altered rhyolite. There was no geology map with Lacana’s assessment report
to the B .C. government, so it was not clear how extensive the felsic volcanics are in this area.
However, there is a 1966 vintage geology map in the BC government property file that
documents lithologies and their thickness/orientat ion in the area and suggests that the felsic
package appears >1200 m wide and trends SE, which fits well with Lacana’s drilling/trenching
results. Importantly, these new Emerson extension claims cover the strike extension of this
Kasalka Group felsic volcanic package as this formation is one key to the Blackwater story.

Forward Looking Information
This news release includes certain statements that may be deemed "forward looking statements".
All statements in this news release, other than statements of historical facts, that address events or
developments that Harvest Gold Corporation (the “Company”) expects to occur, are forward
looking statements. Forward looking statements are statements that are not historical facts and are
generally, but not a lways, identified by the words "expects", "plans", "anticipates", "believes",
"intends", "estimates", "projects", "potential" and similar expressions, or that events or conditions
"will", "would", "may", "could" or "should" occur.
This news release includes technical information that was generated prior to the introduction of
National Instrument 43-101. Details of the sampling methods, handling, and quality control
methods used in the generation of this historical technical data are unknown to Harvest Gold, and
the drill material, assay results, true width of intercepts herein cannot be and have n ot been
verified by the Company’s Qualified Person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101.
A number of mineral resources or significant occurrences disclos ed herein relate to nearby
properties owned by other companies, and the data presented have b een e xtracted from these
companies’ press releases and websites. A Qualified Person has been unable to verify this
information from the adjacent properties, and s uch results are not necessarily indicative of
potential quantities or grades of mineralization on the Company’s properties.
Relating to exploration, the identification of exploration targets and any imp lied future
investigation of such targets on the basi s of specific geological, geochemical and geophysical
evidence or trends are future-looking and subject to a variety of possible outcomes which may or
may not include the discovery, or extension, or term ination of mineralization. Further, areas
around known mineralized intersections or surface showings may be marked by wording such as
“open”, “untested”, “possible extension” or “exploration potential” or by symbols such as “?”.
Such wording or symbols sho uld not be construed as a certainty that mineralizati on continues or
that the character of mineralization (e.g. grade or thickness) will remain co nsistent from a known
and measured data point. The key risks related to exploration in general are that chance s of
identifying economical reserves are extremely small.
Although the Company believes the expectations expressed in such forward -looking statements
are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements are not guarantees of future performance
and actual results may differ materially from those in the forward looking statements. Factors that
could cause the actual results to differ materially from those in forward looking statements
include market prices, exploitation and exploration successes, and continu ed av ailability of
capital and financing, and general economic, market or business conditions. Investors are
cautioned that any such statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results or
developments may differ materially from those pro jected in the forward -looking statements.
Forward looking statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of the Company’s
management on th e date the statements are made. Except as required by securities laws, the
Company undertakes no obligati on to update these forward -looking statements in the event that
management's beliefs, estimates or opinions, or other factors, should change.
