About Labrador Gold:
Labrador Gold is a Canadian based mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition and exploration of
prospective gold projects in the Americas. In 2017 Labrador Gold signed a Letter of Intent under which the
Company has the option to acquire 100% of the 896 square kilometre (km 2) Ashuanipi property in northwes t
Labrador and the Hopedale (458 km2) property in eastern Labrador.
The Hopedale property covers much of the Hunt River and Florence Lake greenstone belts that stretch over 80
km. The belts are typical of greenstone belts around the world , but have been un derexplored by comparison.
Initial work by Labrador Gold during 2017 show s 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 appr oximately 40 kilometres along the southern section of the greenstone belt (see news
release dated January 25th 2018 for more details). Labrador Gold now controls approximately 57km strike length
of the Florence Lake Greenstone Belt.
The Ashuanipi gold proj ect is located just 35 km from the historical iron ore mining community of Schefferville,
which is linked by rail to the port of Sept -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 kilometr e 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 18th 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 Services 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.
The Company has 57,039,022 common shares issued and outstanding and trades on the TSX Venture Exchange
under the symbol LAB.
