Pipeline West/Clipper Gold Project Update Including
Regional Earn-In Activity
NEWS RELEASE
Vancouver, B.C. October 19, 2021 – Riley Gold Corp. (TSX.V: RLYG) (OTCQB: RLYGF) (“Riley Gold”
or the “ Company”) is pleased to announce that exploration planning is currently underway for its 100%
controlled Pipeline West/Clipper Gold Project (“Pipeline West”), within the Battle Mountain-Eureka Trend.
Pipeline West is located in Lander County (Cortez Mining District), approximately 80 km southwest of Elko,
Nevada. Nearby and proximal gold deposits include Barrick’s ‘Cortez Complex’ ( now operated under the
Nevada Gold Mines LLC, a joint venture amongst Barrick and Newmont , (“NGM”)): Pipeline; Gap; Gold
Acres; Cortez; Cortez Hills; Goldrush and Four Mile as well as Robertson.
Riley Gold’s Pipeline West adjoins the NGM claim boundary on the west and lies just 1,000 metres west of
NGM’s Pipeline/Gap Mine as well as only 600 metres west of the NGM’s Gold Acres open pit, where a
window into carbonates of the lower plate of the Roberts Mountains Thrust outcrops. The Company is also
excited to report that the majority of Riley Gold’s remaining Pipeline West claim boundary (north and west),
that adjoined Ridgeline Mineral’s (“Ridgeline”) Swift project is now subject to a recently announced earn-
in transaction between Ridgeline and NGM whereby NGM can earn up to a 70% interest by spending
US$30M (up to 75% by arranging debt funding for Ridgeline’s portion of development costs ).The
September 22, 2021 news release can be found on SEDAR or Ridgeline’s website. See Figure 1 below for
approximate project locations and boundaries.
“We commend both Ridgeline and NGM on this earn-in agreement of the highly prospective Swift p roject
within a region well known by NGM due to their past and current production and their currently reported
gold reserves and resources of approximately 35.2 million ounces of gold within the Cortez Complex i. The
Battle Mountain-Eureka Trend, and particularly this portion of the trend, has been blessed with favourable
geology and very large gold deposits like few places on earth. Having a major gold producer continuing to
explore regionally, and working with junior explorers too, is a proven model for success. We are now
essentially surrounded by NGM and look forward to beginning our own exploration program at Pipeline
West”, commented Todd Hilditch, CEO.
Exploration at Pipeline West is expected to target lower plate carbonates with deeper drilling than previously
completed, which has been less than 250 metres on the majority of the property. Soil geochemistry, detailed
mapping and g eophysics (including magnetics and gravity ) are anticipated to be utilized, in an effort to
further define favourable structures to target for drilling.
