Viva Gold Initiates Technical Studies in Preparation for Feasibility Study at Its Tonopah Gold Project in Nevada; Provides Drilling Update

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 20, 2020 / Viva Gold Corp. (TSXV:VAU)(OTCQB:VAUCF) (the "Company" or "Viva") is pleased to advise that it has retained a number of industry leading consultants to initiate technical studies at its Tonopah gold project ("Tonopah") in Nevada, in the areas of groundwater hydrology, geotechnical slope study, metallurgical testwork and to update existing archeological studies with the intent to advance toward a carefully prepared feasibility study and to build on the foundation of the robust PEA economics announced May 12, 2020 .

"These technical studies are expected to further de-risk and generate data that will be used as the basis for future permitting and feasibility studies for the potential open pit mine, heap leach gold recovery operation at Tonopah. This work will provide greater insight into gold recovery and mine design and assist management in determining the most effective ways to improve upon a strong PEA, it is our intention to unlock the full value of the project for our shareholders," remarked James Hesketh, President & CEO. "In addition, Viva is currently drilling hole number seven of its 14-hole reverse circulation drill program at Tonopah, previously announced on July 2nd, 2020. Assay results will be released as they become available and we expect to report on initial results soon. We anticipate mobilizing a core drilling rig to the site in early September for a five-hole program to capture core samples for geologic review, assay, metallurgical, geotechnical and environmental testwork," he added.

The groundwater hydrology study is initially focused on analyzing the extensive database of information generated by prior operators on the site, including Kennecott, Newmont, and Midway Gold, as well as a large volume of publicly available data. This analysis will be used to determine if any additional study, monitoring, or testwork is required. Geotechnical studies will commence with analysis of existing data that includes over 20 oriented core holes completed by Newmont and Midway, prior structural and geotechnical studies and available geologic and hydrologic data. This study will provide initial slope angle recommendations for open pit design with recommendations for further optimization study. A metallurgical testwork program is currently being designed to include crushing testwork including the use of high-pressure grinding rolls, bottle roll, column leach recovery tests and rock characterization studies. It is anticipated that this program will provide information for initial heap leach and plant design. The archeological study will update a prior study completed by Newmont in 2003 and is designed to meet all current regulatory guidelines.

Klondike Gold Drilling to Resume at Lone Star Zone

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 20, 2020 / Klondike Gold Corp. (TSXV:KG)(FRA:LBDP)(OTC PINK:KDKGF) ("Klondike Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the planned commencement of a 27-hole Phase 4 drilling program targeting the Lone Star Zone on the Company's wholly owned 586 square kilometer Klondike District Property, Yukon Territory.

The objective of Phase 4 drilling is to extend the dimensions of Lone Star Zone gold mineralization in all surface directions, and to test for mineralization that would add to the Company's effort to establish a maiden mineral resource. Drill pad preparation is now underway with Phase 4 drilling planned to commence by early September.

SUMMARY:

Phase 4 drilling program to be comprised of approximately 27 drill holes (+/- 1,800 meters) testing the Lone Star Zone across a 3.5 kilometer strike length. The program is directed in part towards testing for potential high grade gold subzones.
Lone Star Zone gold mineralization is recognized in drill holes over a 3.5 km strike length (see Figure 1) and in rock grab samples for 4.5 km strike length. The Zone remains open in all directions and is prospective at depth for higher grade zones of quartz veining which are interpreted to represent the feeder ‘plumbing' system to the broad Lone Star Zone at surface.
A total of 181 individual drill core sample intervals within the central 1.0 km length of the Lone Star Zone show areas of inferred ‘corridors' of higher gold grades >5 g/t Au. A selection is listed in Table 1.
Recent re-logging of holes suggest some high grade vein intersections may correlate across several drill holes implying lateral and vertical continuity of higher grade quartz veining within the broad lower grade envelope characteristic of the Lone Star Zone. (For example, see gold values listed in Table 1 below: intersections in LS18-171, LS18-172, LS18-180, and LS18-201)
Testing for potential high grade gold veining in structural corridors within the Lone Star Zone is a priority for Phase 4 drilling.

Peter Tallman, President and CEO of Klondike Gold stated "The objective of drilling at the Lone Star Zone is to attempt to outline a potential open-pit gold resource. As we continue to drill in this area, we are steadily delivering the results needed to bring the Klondike District Property to that stage."

Compilation and reinterpretation of results within the main area of Lone Star Zone mineralization has identified individual high-grade vein sets with high-grade assays that potentially correlate between adjacent drill holes and across sections (see Table 1).

Gold-bearing quartz veins occur within LS18-171, LS18-172, LS18-201, LS18-198, and LS18-180 across 100 meters by 100 meters at shallow 5m to 40 meter depth, for example. These and other near-surface gold intersections will be targeted as the Company proceeds with efforts to establish an initial mineral resource.

Results of drilling are estimated to be available in November or later.

LONE STAR ZONE LONGITUDINAL VIEW OF MINERALIZATION

The longitudinal section below shows 164 holes drilled from 2015 to 2020 which have intersected Lone Star Zone gold mineralization over a 3.5 km strike length along the plane of the Bonanza Fault. Mineralized intersections are all within 100 meters of surface with the majority starting at surface. (2020 Phase 1 drill holes are labelled, with gold intersections listed in the inset. See News Release July 30, 2020).

The Lone Star Zone within the 3.5 km identified length has significant untested areas between holes containing mineralization.

The Lone Star Zone is open along strike with targets identified beyond the current extent of drilling.

The Company interprets the zone to be open to depth, and is prospective at depth for higher gold grade zones of quartz veining which represent the feeder ‘plumbing' system to the broad Lone Star Zone at surface.

Golden Lake Exploration Inc. Provides Drilling Update on Jewel Ridge Property – Intersects Significant Oxide Mineralization at Depth at South Eureka Target

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 20, 2020 / Golden Lake Exploration Inc. (CSE:GLM) ("GLM" or the "Company") is pleased to issue an update on its phase 1 reverse circulation ("RC") drill program on the company's keystone Jewel Ridge gold property, located near the town of Eureka, Nevada. Hole JR-20-05, the second hole on the South Eureka Tunnel target, has intersected a significant width of oxide mineralization at depths greater than previously tested. Hole JR-20-05 is a vertical RC drill hole, which intersected a void (i.e. cavity) at 500 feet (152 meters), and upon extension, intersected strong alteration and oxidation at 600 to 675 ft (183 to 206 m), at which depth the hole was still in mineralization but lost. Attempts to deepen the hole were unsuccessful, due to ground conditions.

"While the Jewel Ridge gold project has many attributes, the lack of exploration at depth historically provides one of the greatest opportunities. Hitting oxide mineralization at this never before tested depth is a very good step in the right direction." stated Mike England, CEO and President of Golden Lake.

The occurrence of alteration and strong oxidization at these depths on the South Eureka Tunnel target represents a new target that will require additional drilling. The deepest previous hole on this target was drilled in the 1980s to a depth of 340 ft (104 m). The Company is proposing to deepen two of its planned holes of this Phase 1 program to test the deep oxide target.

The Company is negotiating with the drill contractor for a return to the Jewel Ridge property for a Phase 2 drill program. As part of this planned program, the Company will make necessary site preparations to allow the drilling of deeper holes (750 to 900 ft, or 230 to 275 m depth) to test the new deep oxide target.

The South Eureka Tunnel oxide gold target area was previous drilled with shallow holes (average depth 47.4 meters) by General Minerals Development Corp. — Peter Galli Exploration (1971-1980), and by Norse-Windfall Inc (1983-1988). There has been no drilling on this target since the late 1980s.

About the Jewel Ridge Property

The Jewel Ridge property is located on the south end of Nevada's prolific Battle Mountain – Eureka trend, along strike and contiguous to Barrick Gold's Archimedes/Ruby Hill gold mine to the north and Timberline Resources' advanced-stage Lookout Mountain project to the south.

The property comprises 96 unpatented lode mining claims and 30 patented claims covering approximately 728 hectares (1,800 acres). The Jewel Ridge property contains several historic small gold mines. The Company's focus is on Carlin-style disseminated gold deposits, the primary focus in the area since the late 1970s.

Nevada Carlin-type gold deposits (CTGD) have a combined endowment of more than 250 million ounces, which are concentrated (85 per cent) in only four trends or camps of deposits: Carlin, Cortez (Battle Mountain-Eureka), Getchell and Jerritt Canyon. The Company cautions that results on adjacent and/or nearby projects are not necessarily indicative of results on the Company's property.

About Golden Lake Exploration Inc.

Golden Lake Exploration is a junior public mining exploration company engaged in the business of mineral exploration and the acquisition of mineral property assets. Its objective is to acquire, explore and develop economic precious and base metal properties of merit and to aggressively advance its exploration program on the Jewel Ridge property.

01 Communique Announces Updated IronCAP X v1.1 Encrypted Email Platform with Seamless Sending Mechanism and End-to-End Encryption

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / August 20, 2020 / 01 Communique Laboratory Inc. (the "Company", "01 Communique") (TSXV:ONE) has released updated IronCAP X v1.1 personal usage email encryption now offering a "seamless invitation" to automatically insert an invitation to non-IronCAP-X recipients to join IronCAP X and read the encrypted message. The end-to-end encryption of emails in IronCAP X offers complete protection and privacy for all our emails; including attachments.

Click the following link to view a tutorial of IronCAP X: https://youtu.be/iKSD8MYShsY

To download the free version, click on the following link: https://www.ironcap.ca/ironcap-x/personal.

The IronCAP X v1.1 product is faster than current encryption alternatives and will address the growing concern about personal information that can be collected, shared, and maliciously hacked. IronCAP X v1.1 encrypts sensitive emails such as those sent by financial, legal, and other institutions, and protects personal or business data. An important feature of IronCAP X v1.1 is the digital signature of emails so that recipients know that they are legitimate and safe to open. Our digital signature feature effectively shuts down the main source of most malicious activities such as ransom attacks and phishing email scams.

About 01 Communique

Established in 1992, 01 Communique (TSX-V: ONE) has always been at the forefront of technology. In early 2018 the Company announced an additional business unit focusing on post-quantum cybersecurity with the development of its IronCAP technology. IronCAP's patent-pending cryptographic system is an advanced Goppa code-based post-quantum cryptographic technology that can be implemented on classical computer systems as we know them today while at the same time can also safeguard against attacks in the future post-quantum world of computing. The Company's remote access business provides its customers with a suite of secure remote access services and products. The Company's remote access products are protected in the U.S.A. by its patents #6,928,479 / #6,938,076 / #8,234,701; in Canada by its patents #2,309,398 / #2,524,039 and in Japan by its patent #4,875,094. For more information, visit the Company's web site at www.ironcap.ca and www.01com.com.

About IronCAP and IronCAP X:

IronCAP is at the forefront of the cyber security market and is designed to protect our customers from cyber-attacks. IronCAP's patent-pending cryptographic system is designed to protect users and enterprises against the ever-evolving illegitimate and malicious means of gaining access to their data today as well as in the future with the introduction of powerful quantum computers. Based on improved Goppa code-based encryption it is designed to be faster and more secure than current standards. It operates on conventional computer systems so users are protected today while being secure enough to safeguard against future attacks from the world of quantum computers. An IronCAP API is available which allows vendors of a wide variety of vertical applications to easily transform their products to ensure their customers are safe from cyber-attacks today and from quantum computers in the future.

IronCAP X, a new cybersecurity product for email/file encryption, incorporates our patent-pending technology with commercial release on April 23, 2020. The new product has two major differentiations from what is in the market today. Firstly, many offerings in today's market store users secured emails on email-servers for recipients to read, making email-servers a central target of cyber-attack. Our new product, on the other hand, delivers each encrypted message end-to-end to the recipients such that only the intended recipients can decrypt and read the message. Consumer's individual messages are protected, eliminating the hackers' incentive to attack email servers of email providers. Secondly, powered by our patent-pending IronCAP technology, we believe our new product will be the world's first quantum-safe end-to-end email encryption system; secured against cyberattacks from today's systems and from quantum computers in the future. Consumers and businesses using our new products will have tomorrow's cybersecurity today.
