Unigold Intersects 95.5 meters averaging 1.23 g/t Au at Candelones Extension

Deposit in the Dominican Republic

Toronto, Ontario, March 20, 2020 – Unigold Inc. (“Unigold” or the “Company”) (TSX-V:UGD) is pleased to

announce results from its ongoing drill program at the Candelones Extension deposit, part of the Company’s

100% owned Neita Concession in the Dominican Republic.

Drill hole LP20-144 was positioned to target an undrilled area of low interpolated gold values in the historical

mineral resource estimate. LP20-144 intersected a broad zone of disseminated mineralization that, like other

areas within the pit-constrained resource, is consistent in both grade and continuity. A total of 95.5 meters

averaging 1.23 g/t Au, 2.1 g/t Ag, 0.10% Cu and 0.34% Zn was returned. LP20-144 targeted the area 75 meters

below holes LP19-140 (38.0 meters averaging 2.43 g/t Au, 48.2 g/t Ag, 0.15% Cu and 1.66% Zn) and LP19-142

(60.4 meters averaging 1.51 g/t Au, 5.1 g/t Ag, 0.07% Cu and 0.77% Zn)(Ref. Figure 1.0).

Joe Hamilton, Chairman and CEO of Unigold notes: “LP20-144 is the third consecutive hole to intersect broad,

mineralization at the andesite – dacite contact that was not intersected in the histori cal, wide-spaced drill

pattern. These new intersections lie within 150 meters of surface. Reported grades are elevated relative to our

2013 inferred mineral resource estimate . These holes tested a 100 meter gap in the historical drill coverage

and the results exceeded our expectations. We believe there are similar opportunities to drill gaps in the pit-

constrained resources that may help to convert the inferred mineral resources to the indicated classification,

one of the stated objectives of the current drill campaign. In addition, finding this thickness of mineralization

at the eastern end of the pit may allow for a reduction in the historic stripping ratio by converting areas that

were previously classified as ‘in -pit waste’ to mineralized blocks. Once again, the flexibility of this deposit is

demonstrated with broad swaths of gold-bearing material surrounding high-grade gold and silver feeder

zones. The distribution of grade within the deposit allows both selective and bulk mining methods to be

considered in any development scenario.”

Further to the east, drillhole LP20-145B was positioned at the eastern edge of drilling, 50 metres below a

previous gold-copper massive sulphide intersection at Target A. LP20-145B intersected 4.0 meters averaging

2.00 g/t Au, 1.9 g/t Ag, 0.64% Cu and 0.01% Zn in scattered, stringer sulphide mineralization. The base of the

massive sulphide lens is interpreted to lie above LP20-145B (Ref. Figure 2.0). This result continues to suggest

that the massive sulphide is relatively flat lying, discordant to the andesite-dacite contact and extends to the

east. Additional drilling will be planned in our Phase 2 program to test the area above and further to the east

of LP50 (18.5m averaging 2.49 g/t Au, 4.9 g/t Ag, 1.05% Cu, 0.02% Zn).

QA/QC

Diamond drilling utilizes both HQ and NQ diameter tooling. Holes are established using HQ diameter tooling

before reducing to NQ tooling to complete the hole. The core is received at the on-site logging facility where

it is, photographed, logged for geotechnical and geological data and subjected to other physical tests including

magnetic susceptibility and specific gravity analysis. Samples are identified, recorded, split by wet diamond

saw, and half the core is sent for assay with the remaining half stored on site. A minimum sample length of 0.3

meters and a maximum sample length of 1.5 metres is employed with most samples averaging 1.0 met ers in

length except where geological contacts dictate. Certified standards and blanks are randomly inserted into the

sample stream and constitute approximately 5-10% of the sample stream. Samples are shipped to a sample

preparation facility in the Dominican Republic operated by Bureau Veritas. Assaying is performed at Bureau

Veritas Commodities Canada Ltd.’s laboratory in Vancouver, B.C. Canada. All samples are analyzed for gold

using a 50 gram lead collection fire assay fusion with an atomic adsorption finish. In addition, most samples

are also assayed using a 36 element multi-acid ICP-ES analysis method.
