~ Encounters gold in numerous new exploration targets ~
June 20, 2017 - Reno, NV – NuLegacy Gold Corporation’s 2017 exploration campaign (10,500m,
33,500ft, +/ - 40 drill holes) is designed to test high priority drill targets in new areas on the
company’s 38 square mile/98 square km Red Hill property in the Cortez gold trend of Nevada. A
number of these geochemical and geophysical targets are at considerable distances from the known
mineralization of the Iceberg gold deposit, and therefore have a high risk/high reward profile. Early
results vary from reasonable ( circa Iceberg deposit gold grade range of 0.9 to 1.1 gram /ton) to
modest intervals of anomalous gold. Management continues to be encouraged that every drill hole
in every area drilled to date encounters gold mineralization.
Avocado: Difficult drilling conditions in the Avocado deposit area have slowed the progress of the
Company’s spring/summer drill program. The deep RC rig mobilized in April has completed just
two holes into the West Avocado and one hole into the East Avocado. These three holes have
returned broadly anomalous gold intervals; drilling of the fourth hole has been cased to its approx.
1,400-foot depth pending completion by a core rig to the targeted 2,100- foot depth. Upon receipt
of the trace element analyses and detailed logging of these holes an interpretation will be developed
to guide additional drilling at Avocado.
Iceberg South: IS17-01 is a 120m (400 ft) step out to the west of the South zone, and encountered
important near surface gold mineralization. This result opens a very large (~1,000m) as yet undrilled
area to the west and northwest of Iceberg South that represents a new high priority target area for
NuLegacy:
IS17-01 From (ft) To (ft) Int. (ft) From (m) To (m) Int. (m) Grade (gpt)
260 275 15 79.3 83.8 4.5 0.60
The similarity of the geology and alteration of this intercept to that in the Central zone supports the
interpretation that the two zones may connect.
Iceberg Central: IC17-01C (core hole) was drilled as a 70m (230ft) step out directly north of the
Central zone in an area of chaotic fracturing. It encountered multiple gold values, and opens a
corridor where we anticipate connecting to the North zone:
IC17-01C From (ft) To (ft) Int. (ft) From (m) To (m) Int. (m) Grade (gpt)
180 200 20 55.0 60.9 5.9 0.16
and 237 260 23 72.4 79.3 6.9 0.12

and 349 416 67 106.4 126.9 20.5 0.34
Also IC17-02 extended the Central zone to the south with modest results in two separate gold
horizons:
IC17-02 From (ft) To (ft) Int. (ft) From (m) To (m) Int. (m) Grade (gpt)
135 165 30 41.2 50.3 9.1 0.22
and 300 315 15 91.4 96.0 4.6 0.21
Iceberg North: ID17-01, the first hole to penetrate the Deep Iceberg geophysical anomaly,
encountered the middle Devonian Wenban formation and contains pyrite starting at 1,110 feet to the
end of the hole at 1,640 feet. This interval is also cut by several mafic intrusives, one of which
contains substantial pyrite. The presence of sulfides is the likely cause of the IP chargeability
response.
The hole encounter ed gold higher up in the stratigraphy, at the Tertiary Volcaniclastics/Horse
Canyon limestone contact, and at the Horse Canyon/Wenban contact:
ID17-01 From (ft) To (ft) Int. (ft) From (m) To (m) Int. (m) Grade (gpt)
230 250 20 70.1 76.2 6.1 0.51
and 380 460 80 115.9 140.2 24.3 0.35
This hole extends the gold mineralization of the near-surface Iceberg to the south of the North zone
and continues the progress of linking the North and Central z ones. A second Deep Iceberg hole is
being assayed.
Elsewhere in the North zone hole IN17-01 is a 180m (600 ft) step-out directly west of the southern
portion of the North zone. It has been logged as 1% pyrite and calcite stringers suggesting the edge
of a larger system. It encountered a low -grade interval of oxidized gold in a silicified jasperoid
breccia as follows:
IN17-01 From (ft) To (ft) Int. (ft) From (m) To (m) Int. (m) Grade (gpt)
440 465 15 134.1 141.7 7.6 0.12
A core hole, IN17-02C, drilled from the same pad location and angled into a regional fault structure
(the Long Fault) has been logged, split, and sent for assay.
Additional targets: In the weeks ahead, the C ompany will be drilling the gold-in-soil anomaly at
the VIO claim area some 4km west of the Iceberg’s Central zone, as well as the Jasperoid Basin area
(1/2 kilometer east of Iceberg) with anomalous gold and high trace element values on surface ,
combined with an interpreted collapse structure, create an intriguing drill target.
Additional assays will be released as processed and properly interpreted.
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 Avocado and Iceberg 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 spectroscopy (AAS) finish on a 30- gram split. All other elements were determined by
ICP analysis. 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.
The reported intercepts are not necessarily true widths as t here is insufficient data at this time with
respect to the shape of the mineralization to calculate its true orientation.

About NuLegacy Gold Corporation: NuLegacy is a Nevada exploration company focus ed on discovering
additional Carlin-style gold deposits on its premier district scale 98-sq. km (35 sq. mile) Red Hill Project in
the prolific Cortez gold trend of Nevada.
To date NuLegacy has discovered the Icebergi and the Avocado Carlin-style gold deposits and has identified
four more highly prospective exploration targets to be drilled this year.
NuLegacy’s Red Hill 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 minesiii. i An established exploration target of 90-110 million tonnes of 0.9 to 1.1 grams of g old per tonne. These figures
are conceptual in nature and derived from a compilation of 149 historic and 34 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 Project. iiiAs extracted from Barrick’s Q4-2013 and Q1-2014 reports.
