NV Gold Drill Results Demonstrate Prospective Gold System at its Slumber Gold Project in Nevada

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 28, 2019 / NV Gold Corporation (TSXV:NVX)(OTC:NVGLF) ("NV Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that four of seven holes encountered gold mineralization at its recently completed initial 7-hole, 1,091 m, reverse circulation ("RC") drill program at its 100% controlled Slumber Gold Project, Nevada.

"Our initial drill program at Slumber has identified a promising gold system. This blind target was identified by geophysics," commented Dr. Quinton Hennigh, Director of NV Gold. " Anomalous mineralization encountered over significant lengths in holes SL-02 and SL-01, some 450 meters apart, suggests the presence of a large gold-bearing hydrothermal system in the sub-surface. Its characteristics exhibit similarities to several other high-grade mid-Miocene gold systems in the region. The Company plans further data review and more refined geophysical interpretation, to target potential high-grade structures that have given rise to the anomalous plume we have encountered in the recent drilling."

Slumber Drilling Highlights:

• Noting the drill target is "blind," or buried beneath a veneer of gravel, and initial drilling was driven by geophysical modeling, encountering anomalous gold mineralization in four of seven holes is considered very encouraging. Felsic volcanic rocks, similar to those that host other notable deposits in the region host mineralization encountered in the drilling.
• The most notable intercept is a 39.6 meter interval grading 0.34 gpt Au and 1.3 gpt Ag beginning at 36.6 meters down hole including 22.8 meters grading 0.47 gpt Au and 1.6 gpt Ag beginning at 53.4 meters down hole encountered in hole SL-02. At the very top of hole SL-02, an interval of 27.4 meters grading 0.18 gpt Au and 2.6 gpt Ag was encountered. Mineralization remains open to the north, west, northeast and at depth below hole SL-02.
• Hole SL-01, situated approximately 450 m northeast of hole SL-02, encountered five mineralized intervals from surface to 167.7 m. Mineralization remains open in all directions around hole SL-01.
• Silver-to-gold ratios are generally less than 5-to-1, which is a characteristic of other mid-Miocene low-sulfidation epithermal gold systems across northern Nevada. Many of these systems including Sleeper, Buckskin-National and Midas, are known to host high-grade veins, so the results of this drill program are considered very positive for our first attempt at a blind target.
• NV Gold believes these results demonstrate Slumber hosts a highly prospective gold system that is potentially being fed by deeper structures within the area. Therefore, further drilling is planned after data interpretation, modelling and refinement or vectoring of drill targeting.

Note: **True Width is not known at this time.

Holes SL-05 and SL-06 each encountered mineralization at their tops, and are believed to be connected with nearby hole SL-02. Hole SL-07 encountered altered and silicified volcanic rocks, but did not encounter appreciable Au. Nonetheless, it is viewed as being proximal to the larger system indicated in hole SL-02. Hole SL-03 was lost in alluvium and did not test its target.

Noting sample batches at ALS are run using 76 samples per batch, excluding internal standards, blanks, and duplicates run by ALS, NV Gold inserted one additional standard and one additional blank per each 76-sample batch. All standards and blanks inserted by NV Gold returned values coincident with expectations. Gold was assayed using fire assay with an atomic-absorption finish (ALS Code Au-AA23), and silver was assayed using standard atomic-absorption spectrometry (ALS Code Ag-AA61).
