45 and COD18-46. These holes were drilled at 45 and 50 degree dips to the west from the same site and
intersected high grade gold as highlighted below:
• COD18-45 intersected of 50.1 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 375 g/t silver over 2.05
meter core length including 167.5 g/t gold, 1,370 g/t silver and >500 g/t tellurium over
0.46 meter core length (GGX News Release of August 15, 2018).
