NuLegacy Connects North Iceberg and Serena Zones
~ Drills 3.3 meters of 14.7 grams per ton gold ~
January 18, 2018 - Reno, NV – NuLegacy Gold Corporation reports further results from its Serena
and North Iceberg Zones as part of its 16-hole fall drill program. Serena holes SR17-06 and SR17-
08c have essentially connected the Serena zone with the North Zone.
One of the many successes of NuLegacy’s 2017 drilling program was the discovery and subsequent
expansion of the previously unexplored Serena zone. Now nearly 300 meters by 200 meters of
continuous mineralization averaging ~1.00 grams/t gold the Serena Zone remains completely
undrilled to the North and West. The several high-grade intervals of approximately 10 grams/t gold
drilled in the Serena zone during the 2017 season substantiate NuLegacy’s expectation of a large
and robust gold system of mineralization present at the Red Hill property.
Drill hole SR17 -08c, a core hole drilled between the Serena zone and the northern portion of the
North zone returned;
• 32.7 meters (107 feet) of 2.07 grams/t gold, including 3.3 meters (10.7 feet) of 14.68 grams/t
gold,
while hole SR17-06, drilled between the Serena zone and the southern portion of the North zone
returned;
• 41.1 meters (135 feet) of 0.76 grams/t gold including 10.7 meters (35 feet) of 2.37 grams/t
gold.

Importantly, SR17-09, the most westerly hole drilled at Serena to date encountered an interval of
33.5 meters (110 feet) of 0.50 grams/t gold that is approximately 60 meters lower stratigraphically
than previous Serena drill intercepts . This may indicate that deeper, and potentially higher -grade
mineralization may be encountered further west as we approach the Northern Nevada Rift, a major
regional fault structure. The gold mineralization is hosted in strongly silicified (Jasperoid) Devonian
Horse Canyon limestones and at the Horse Canyon/Wenban contact zone.
“As we continue to explore the Red Hill property we are becoming more confident in our ability to
target Carlin -style gold mineralization along structural corridors that have been identified by
geophysical and geochemical data. We are very excited about continuing this process in the spring,
when we expect to further expand the Serena zone gold mineralization, which remains open to the
north and west”, said Derick Unger, NuLegacy’s Chief Geologist.

These intercepts are not necessarily true widths as there is insufficient data at this time with respect to the shape of the
mineralization to calculate its true orientation.
Mine Development Associates of Reno Nevada have been commissioned to provide NuLegacy with
a maiden NI 43-101 resource estimate on the 35% of the Iceberg ’s strike length that has sufficient
drill density to establish a resource figure. North Zone hole IN17-14c was drilled to fill a gap in the
data between grade shells, and though of modest grade, should add ounces to the potential resource
number.
In addition to expanding the Serena zone, several wild-cat holes were drilled to test other structural
targets recently identified by geophysical and geochemical data. The first of those holes, IN17- 12,
drilled into a Serena “look -a-like” target 500 meters (1,700 feet) north of the Serena zone and
returned 22.9 meters (75 feet) of 0.12 grams/t gold including an interval of 3.0 meters (10 feet) of
0.43 grams/t gold, as well as over 100 meters (328 feet) of jasperoid and breccia. This hole was
collared at th e northern extension of the West Iceberg fault, near the range front, and provides
another significant new target for the 2018 drill season. The area between IN17- 12 and the Serena
zone 500 meters to the south is completely untested.
As well, wild-cat holes IN17-13 and 15 tested another Serena “look-a-like” structural target several
hundred meters south of the Serena zone. Both holes contained anomalous gold values in jasperoids
which indicates gold-bearing fluids were active in the area. Our post-drilling analysis suggests the
Long Fault may have offset the mineralization further to the west in this area.
The company is awaiting assays from two holes in the Western Slope area and two holes from the
VIO epithermal discovery. These results will be releas ed when received and thoroughly reviewed
by our geological team in Reno Nevada.
Sampling Methodology, Chain of Custody, Quality Control and Quality Assurance : All
sampling was conducted under the supervision of the Company’s project geologists and the chain
of custody from the project to the sample preparation facility was continuously monitored. A blank
or certified reference material was inserted approximately every 20th sample. The samples were
delivered to American Assay Labs’ preparation facility in Sparks, NV. The samples were crushed,
pulverized and sample pulps were analyzed by American Assay Labs’ certified laboratory in Sparks,
NV. Pulps were digested and analyzed for gold using fire assay fusion and an atomic absorption

Data verification of the analytical results included a statistical analysis of the standards and blanks
that must pass certain parameters for acceptance to ensure accurate and verifiable results.
About NuLegacy: NuLegacy Gold Corporation is an advanced stage N evada exploration company focusing on
the discovery of district scale Carlin-style gold deposits on its premier 98-sq. km (35 sq. mile) Red Hill Property
in the prolific Cortez gold trend of Nevada.
To date NuLegacy has discovered the Iceberg i Carlin-style gold deposits and has identified several more highly
prospective exploration targets that are being drilled this year.
NuLegacy’s Cortez-trend Project is located on trend and adjacentii to three multi-million ounce Carlin-type gold
deposits (the Pipeline, Cortez Hills and Goldrush deposits) that are amongst Barrick Gold’s largest, lowest cost
and politically safest gold assetsiii. i An established exploration target of 90 -110 million tonnes of 0.9 to 1. 1 grams of gold per tonne. These figures are
conceptual in nature and derived from a compilation of 149 historic and 111 NuLegacy drill holes. To date, there has
been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target
being delineated as a mineral resource. ii. The similarity and proximity of these deposits in the Cortez Trend is not necessarily indicative of the gold
mineralization in NuLegacy’s Red Hill Property. iii. As extracted from Barrick’s Q4-2013 and Q1-2014 reports.
