Klondike Gold Drills 1.08 g/t Au over 49.65 meters at Lone Star Zone,
Extends Mineralization 250 Meters East
September 27, 2021 TSX Venture Exchange Symbol – KG
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, September 27, 2021, Klondike Gold Corp. (TSX.V: KG;
FRA: LBDP; OTC: KDKGF) (“Klondike Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to report results of 2021
Phase 2a diamond drilling at the Lone Star Zone , Klondike District Property, Yukon. Twelve (12)
holes totalling 1,222 meters were completed in July 2021. Klondike Gold is pleased that near -
surface gold mineralization at the Lone Star Zone has been significantly extended east by 250
meters or ~25% greater in length with these results.
Assay highlights from this phase of Lone Star Zone drilling includes:
• 1.70 g/t Au over 14.6 meters from 21.0 meters to 35.6 in LS21-388
• 1.08 g/t Au over 49.65 meters from 40.35 meters to 90.0 meters in LS21-389
• 2.9 g/t Au over 11.0 meters from 15.0 meters to 26.0 meters in LS21-392
• 3.23 g/t Au over 6.0 meters from 58.0 meters in LS21-394
• 0.84 g/t Au over 29.0 meters from 4.0 meters to 33.0 meters in LS21-399
• 1.11 g/t Au over 23.5 meters from 1.5 meters to 25.0 meters in LS21-410
Peter Tallman, Klondike Gold’s CEO states “Results continue to show the Lone Star Zone discovery
hosts significant near -surface gold mineralization which is expandable and remains open in all
directions. Near term milestones include a Geology technical report followed by a maiden
mineral resource. The Company is well positioned to rapidly advance the Lone Star Zone as one
among a number of ‘pipeline’ targets within our district- spanning 586 square kilometer claim
package that has excellent access to existing highway, power, communications, commercial
airport and town infrastructure.”

LONE STAR ZONE PHASE 2 DRILLING
2021 drilling at the Lone Star ‘East’ area (Phase 2a) tested for an eastern extension of the Lone
Star Zone with 12 holes totalling 1,222 meters. See Figure 1 for drill hole locations and Table 1
for assay results on the Phase 2a Drilling on the Lone Star Zone.
These latest significant positive results at the Lone Star East target demonstrate continuity of
mineralization at least 250 m eters eastward beyond the currently defined Lone Star Zone gold
mineralization model shell and also show downslope continuity of mineralization (see Figure 2
and Figure 3).
Positive results reported from the Lone Star Zone (Phase 2b) tested the downslope and potential
down-dip extension (see News Release September 23, 2021). This work extend ed the downhill
slope dip length to 350 meters from 200 meters.

PHASE 4 DRILLING AND EXPLORATION UPDATE
Phase 3 drilling testing the Stander Zone was completed in August. Results are pending.
Phase 4 drilling testing along the Eldorado Fault in Eldorado Creek over a 4 kilometer length nears
completion with drilling just finished and with logging and sampling in progress . A total of 13
holes were completed testing various targets exclusively . The holes targeted various graphitic
fault zones evident from LIDAR surveying potentially associated with gold mineralization. One of
these targets at the Gay Gulch Zone , the second o f two original discoveries made in 2015, has
previously returned significant gold intersections including 420 g/t Au over 0.4 meters within 75.6
g/t Au over 2.8 meters in the discovery hole EC15-10 (see News Release October 26, 2015). No
estimate is yet known for availability and reporting of assay results.

Klondike Gold contracted GeoCloud Analytics of Melbourne, Australia to complete a detailed re-
interpretation of the 2019 LIDAR survey data (see NR 23 September 2021). The work is in
progress.
SRK Con sulting of Toronto have been contracted to prepare a NI -43-101 Technical Report
summarizing geology and exploration on the Company’s Klondike District Project. Site visit field
review has been completed. The report is in progress and is anticipated to be completed for filing
by Q4 2021.
2021 ASSAY PROTOCOLS
All 2021 drill holes referenced in this release produced NTW (5.71cm dia.) drill core. Assay
samples from drill core are cut using a diamond saw. Half the core sample interval is bagged,
tagged, and sealed; the other half is returned to the core box with a corresponding tag and
retained for reference. Two gold reference standards, two blank samples (a coarse and a fine),
and a coarse sample duplicate per 100 samples, are routinely inserted as part of Klondike Gold’s
quality assurance / quality control (“QA/QC”) program, independent of and additional to the
laboratory QA/QC program.
Sample bags are aggregated into rice bags, sealed, and submitted by Klondike Gold personnel to
Bureau Veritas Mineral Laboratories (“BV Labs”) preparation facility in Whitehorse, YT with
chemical analysis of sample pulps completed in Vancouver, British Columbia. Bureau Veritas Labs
is an accredited ISO 9001:2008 full-service commercial laboratory.
At BV Labs each drill core sample is crushed to 70% passing 2 mm size. A 500 g subsample is
pulverized to 85% passing 75 microns size (200 mesh)(Code PRP70 -500). All samples of 500 g
were sieved to 106 microns (140 mesh) for “metallic screen” assaying. The +140 mesh fraction is
weighed and assayed for gold by fire assay (“FA”) fusion with a gravimetric finish (Code FS631).
A 30 g subsample of the -140 mesh fraction is assayed for gold by fire assay (“FA”) fusion with an
atomic absorption (“AA”) finish (Code FA430). All over-limit results in excess of 10 ppm (10 g/t)
for both silver and gold are re -assayed using a 30 g subsample and assayed by FA with a
gravimetric finish (Code FA530 -Au/Ag). Total gold grade is then calculated using a weighted
average of the plus and minus fraction assay results.
