Precipitate’s Geophysical Surveying Generates More Targets
at Melchor and Peak Zones
Vancouver, B.C. – July 25, 2017 - Precipitate Gold Corp. (the “Company” or “Precipitate”) (TSXV: PRG) is
pleased to announce results and interpretation from the latest geophysical and geochemical surveys at the
“Melchor” and “ Peak ” Zones located at the southeastern end of the Compan y’s 100% owned Juan de
Herrera project in the Dominican Republic.
Precipitate has completed a comprehensive interpret ation of recently collected geophysical and
geochemical survey data at the Melchor and Peak Zone s, located approximately 12 kilometres (”km”)
southeast of the Company’s Ginger Ridge Zone. Together, soil and rock sample results, induced polarization
(“IP”) and airborne magnetic geophysical survey dat a identify multi-layered target areas for both the
Melchor and Peak Zones. See the accompanying two ma ps or the Company’s website for both Zones gold-
in-soil anomalies and IP + magnetics geophysics illustration maps.
Highlight results for the combined newly generated geochemical and geophysical data for the Melchor and
Peak Zones is as follows:
Melchor Zone
• Target area measuring 2.2 km by 0.6 km including th ree parallel and fairly well defined multi-
element soil anomalies with gold up to 181 parts per billion (“ppb”);
• Highlight rock grab sampling with gold values up to 7.7 g/t Au;
• The three southeast trending soil anomalies are fur ther defined by various geophysical features of
mixed moderate-high and low IP chargeability-resist ivity and magnetic low signatures, important
for potential gold mineralization in the region; and
• Geological mapping indicates much of the area to be underlain by regionally favourable rhyolite
and dacite rocks.
Peak Zone
• Target area measuring 2.0 km by 0.7 km, includes four loosely outlined multi-element soil
anomalies with gold up to 286 ppb;
• Highlight rock grab sampling with gold values up to 1.57 g/t Au and copper values to 0.6%;
• Geophysical responses including mixed moderate-high and low IP chargeability-resistivity and
magnetic signatures; are coincident with the soil anomalies;
• Located 4.5 km southeast of GoldQuest Mining’s Jengibre zone, where past work reported highlight
rock channel sampling results of 59.5 metres gradin g 1.58 g/t gold (see GoldQuest news release of
October 7, 2009) and rock samples to 17.7 g/t gold and 1.4% copper; and

• Sampling of other areas between Peak and Melchor zones has reported gold-in-soil values up to
490 ppb and a rock grab sample with 0.47 g/t gold and greater than 1% zinc.
Jeffrey Wilson, Precipitate’s President and CEO com mented, “We are pleased that our extensive ground
exploration work over recent months continues to yi eld encouraging results. Collectively, IP and airbo rne
geophysical surveys, early stage geochemical sampli ng, along with the region’s first modern geological
mapping work have delineated additional prospective exploration targets that warrant drill targeting in the
future. The fact that we have now identified four t argets in addition to Ginger Ridge clearly demonstr ates
the metallogenic potential of this volcanic belt.”
Early stage soil sampling at the Melchor and Peak Zones covers an expanse measuring about 6.0 km by 1.5
km covering the prospective Cretaceous aged Tireo v olcanic rocks. Current soil sample density is gener ally
wide spread with samples collected at 50-100m inter vals along local ridges and paths; additional soil
sampling is essential and planned for the area. The gold-in-soil anomalies are defined by values excee ding
the 70th percentile or 4.0 ppb. To date, gold-in-soil value s for the two zones range from nil to 490 ppb.
These two early stage target areas and other nearby anomalous gold-zinc sample locations are the focus of
ongoing follow up exploration work.
Rock and soil samples were bagged, sealed and deliv ered directly to Bureau Veritas (“BV”) preparation fa cility in
Maimon Dominican Republic where they were dried, crushed (or sieved in the case of soils) and pulped. Sample pulps
were then delivered to BV facilities in Vancouver BC (an ISO 9001 accredited facility) for analyses. Sa mples were
crushed (or sieved) to with up to 80% passing 2mm a nd split using a riffle splitter (code PRP70-250). An approximate
250 gram sub-sample split was pulverized to minus 2 00 mesh (74μ). A 15 gram sub-split from the resulti ng pulp was
then subjected to aqua regia digestion and multi-el ement ICP-MS analysis (code AQ201). Rock sample res ults with
gold greater than 1,000 ppb were subjected to fire assay (ICP-ES finish) analysis (30 g pulp; code FA3 30-Au). The
induced polarization/resistivity survey was carried out by Matrix Geotechnologies Ltd of Toronto Ontar io, using a 10
kW generator Time Domain IP system using the Elrec Pro 10 channel receiver with a receiver dipole spac ing of 25
metres, (pole-dipole array), which provides quality subsurface resolution for 2D Quantitive Sections a nd 3D voxel
modelling for exploration drill targeting. The figu re accompanying this release shows a plan view of i nterpreted
gradient chargeability.
