LABRADOR GOLD EXPANDS KINGSWAY TO 77 SQUARE KILOMETRES WITH OPTION AGREEMENT
TORONTO, ON. July 6, 2020 – Labrador Gold Corp. (TSX-V: LAB) (“LabGold” or the “Company”) is pleased
to announce that it has entered into an option agreement to acquire 100% of License 023940M ( the
“Property”) which is strategically positioned between the Kingsway North and South claim blocks in the
emerging Gander gold belt. The acquisition of the Property increases the Company’s landholdings in the
district to 308 claims or approximately 77 square kilometres.
Property Highlights
• Comprises 44 claim units contiguous with Kingsway North and South (see Figure 1)
• Hosts the Cracker gold occurrence where grab samples from trenching range from 1.8 g/t Au to
61.73 g/t Au and channel samples range from <5ppb to 1.89 g/t Au (see Table 1)
• Historical soil sampling show gold concentrations in samples of <5ppb to 787 ppb (0.787 g/t Au),
including 19 samples over 100 ppb (0.1 g/t Au)
• Historical till sampling in the northern portion of the Property close to the boundary with
Kingsway North, show gold concentrations in samples of 0.11 g/t to 1.61 g/t and gold grain
counts of 7 to 60 grains

“Optioning this strategic Property consolidates LabGold’s land position in the Gander gold belt and adds
a significant gold occurrence to the property package. The Cracker showing is another gold occurrence
associated with the Appleton Fault Zone, a crustal-scale structure that we believe to be a major control
of gold in the district” said Roger Moss, President and CEO of LabGold. “We will include the Property in
our exploration plans for this summer with work expected to begin around mid-July.”

About Labrador Gold:
Labrador Gold is a Canadian based mineral exploratio n company focused on the acquisition and
exploration of prospective gold projects in the Americas.
In early March 2020, Labrador Gold acquired the option to earn a 100% interest in the Kingsway project
in the Gander area of Newfoundland. The property is a long strike to the northeast of New Found Gold’s
discovery of 92.86 g/t Au over 19.0 metres on their Queensway property. (Note that mineralization hosted
on adjacent or nearby properties is not necessarily indicative of mineralization hosted on the Company’s
property). The two licenses comprising the Kingsway project cover approximately 16km of the Appleton
fault zone which is associated with gold occurrences in the region, including the New Found Gold
discovery. Historical work over the area covered by the Kingsway licenses shows evidence of gold in till,
vegetation, soil, stream sediments, lake sediments and float. Infrastructure in the area is excellent located
just 18km from the town of Gander with road access to the project, nearby electricity and abundant local
water.
The Hopedale property covers much of the Florence Lake greenstone belt that stretches over 60 km. The
belt is typical of greenstone belts around the world but ha s been underexplored by comparison. Initial
work by Labrador Gold during 2017 show gold anomalies in soils and lake sediments over a 3 kilometre
section of the northern portion of the Florence Lake greenstone belt in the vicinity of the known Thurber
Dog gold showing where grab samples assayed up to 7.8g/t gold. In addition, anomalous gold in soil and
lake sediment samples occur over approximately 40 kilometres along the southern section of the
greenstone belt (see news release dated January 25th 2018 for more details).
The Ashuanipi gold project is located just 35 km from the historical iron ore mining community of
Schefferville, which is linked by rail to the port of S ept Iles, Quebec in the south. The claim blocks cover
large lake sediment gold anomalies that, with the exception of local prospecting, have not seen a
systematic modern day exploration program. Results of the 2017 reconnaissance exploration program
following up the lake sediment anomalies show gold anomalies in soils and lake sediments over a 15
kilometre long by 2 to 6 kilometre wide north-south trend and over a 14 kilometre long by 2 to 4 kilometre
wide east-west trend. The anomalies appear to be broadly associated with magnetic highs and do not
show any correlation with specific rock types on a regional scale (see news release dated January 18 th
2018). This suggests a possible structural control on the localization of the gold anomalies. Historical work
30 km north on the Quebec side led to gold intersections of up to 2.23 grams per tonne (g/t) Au over 19.55
metres (not true width) (Source: IOS Servic es Geoscientifiques, 2012, Exploration and geological
reconnaissance work in the Goodwood River Area, Sheffor Project, Summer Field Season 2011). Gold in
both areas appears to be associated with similar rock types.
Following completion of this private placement, the Company has 85,610,451 common shares issued and
outstanding and trades on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol LAB.
