WGO White Gold Corp

White Gold Corp. (TSX.V: WGO, OTC – Nasdaq Intl: WHGOF, FRA: 29W) (the "Company") is pleased to announce it has staked three strategic claim blocks (Kodiak, Kirkman & Tea) totaling 689 mining claims (the “Claims”) contiguous to the Company’s White Gold property, Newmont Goldcorp Inc.’s (TSX: NGT, NYSE: NEM, “Newmont”) Coffee project and Western Copper & Gold’s (TSXV: WRN, NYSE: WRN) Casino project, all located in the prolific White Gold District, Yukon, Canada. The claims further extend the Company’s land package to the south, with Kodiak & Kirkman claim blocks located approximately 10km south of the Company’s White Gold deposit and 10km to the north of Newmont’s Coffee deposit, and the Tea claim block located contiguous to the Coffee project to the south. These properties each display similar geological characteristics to the nearby properties which host significant gold deposits. The Claims bring the Company’s expansive land package to 21,207 quartz claims across 33 properties, totalling over 422,730 hectares, representing over 40% of the White Gold District. White Gold Corp’s fully-funded $13 million 2019 exploration program backed by partners Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (TSX: AEM, NYSE: AEM) and Kinross Gold Corp (TSX: K, NYSE: KGC) includes diamond drilling on the Vertigo target (JP Ross property), Golden Saddle & Arc deposits (White Gold property) as well as soil sampling, prospecting, GT Probe, trenching and RAB/RC drilling on various other properties across the Company’s expansive land package located in the prolific White Gold District, Yukon, Canada.

Highlights Include:

• New claims staked:° KODIAK: 111 claims contiguous to the White Gold property and 10km north of Newmont’s Coffee deposit° KIRKMAN: 272 claims extending south of Kodiak, also north of Newmont’s Coffee and south of the White Gold property.° TEA: 306 claims contiguous to Newmont’s Coffee project on the south.
• These properties are historically underexplored and display similar geological characteristics to the Coffee project and White Gold properties.
• Shawn Ryan, Chief Technical Advisor will be presenting today Thursday December 5, 2019 at 4PM EST, a live webinar corporate update focusing on the Company’s recent high-grade gold discovery the Titan; Registration details are provided below, and a recording will also be available subsequent to the webinar.
• Additional regional exploration activity & drill results from the White Gold and JP Ross properties to be released in due course.

“Our recent high-grade, near surface Titan discovery and last year’s Vertigo, Ryan’s Surprise and other discoveries continue to demonstrate the success of our proprietary, methodical data-based exploration strategy and the prospectively of our extensive land package in the prolific White Gold District. The Kodiak, Kirkman and Tea properties have similar geological characteristics to our White Gold property and/or the Coffee project and are strategic additions to our land package,” stated David D’Onofrio, Chief Executive Officer.

Kodiak & Kirkman Properties:Kodiak is comprised of 111 claims located south and adjacent to the Company’s White Gold property and approximately 15km north Newmont’s Coffee deposit. Kirkman is comprised of 272 claims extending south of the Kodiak Property, in close vicinity to the Company’s White Gold property and approximately 10km north of Newmont’s Coffee project and 2 km north of Arcus Development Group Inc.’s Dan Man property.

The Kirkman claims were previously held by Kaminak Gold, who originally discovered the Coffee deposit and was subsequently acquired by Goldcorp for $530M. Historically the properties have only had limited exploration work completed, comprised primarily of soil sampling, geophysical surveys, and minor trenching activity.

The strong soil anomalies and favourable geology, combined with the proximity to the neighboring gold deposits warrant follow up exploration. The anomalies are also alongside the Kirkman Creek which is currently actively mined for placer gold.  

Tea Property: The Tea is comprised of 306 claims on a new target area and is located immediately south of Newmont’s Coffee project, and adjacent to Western Copper & Gold’s Casino project to the east. The Tea property claims were staked based on geologic and geophysical interpretation of the area with the claims covering a previously unexplored regional scale, E-W oriented, structural corridor and receptive host rocks. Placer gold is known to occur within streams draining the area and the geologic and structural framework is similar to that which hosts mineralization on the adjacent Coffee property, and the Company’s Betty property approximately 25km to the east.

Live Corporate Update Webinar: Titan Discovery – Thurs Dec 5, 2019 4PM ESTShawn Ryan, Chief Technical Advisor, will present a live webcast corporate update with a focus on the Company’s Titan discovery.

The recent and first ever drilling on the Titan intercepted 72.81 g/t Au over 6.09m from 10.67m depth, including 136.36 g/t Au over 3.05m, within a 32m zone of mineralization and remains open in all directions(1). The Titan is located on the road-accessible Hen property and consists of a 650m x 650m gold in soil anomaly with multiple other prospective targets that show similar geophysical characteristics to the mineralization encountered in these drill holes.  Titan surface exploration results include grab samples of 605 g/t Au, 497 g/t Au, and 113 g/t Au with fine grained visible gold observed, and soil samples of up to 113 g/t Au, the highest ever in the Company’s 400,000+ soil sample database(2).

The Company also announces that Robert Carpenter has stepped down from the Board of Directors to pursue other interests. The Company would like to thank Rob for his valuable contributions to the Company and wish him the best of luck in his future endeavours.

QA/QCThe analytical work for the 2019 drilling program will be performed by ALS Canada Ltd. an internationally recognized analytical services provider, at its Vancouver, British Columbia laboratory.  Sample preparation was carried out at its Whitehorse, Yukon facility. All RC chip and diamond core samples will be prepared using procedure PREP-31H (crush 90% less than 2mm, riffle split off 500g, pulverize split to better than 85% passing 75 microns) and analyzed by method Au-AA23 (30g fire assay with AAS finish) and ME-ICP41 (0.5g, aqua regia digestion and ICP-AES analysis). Samples containing >10 g/t Au will be reanalyzed using method Au-GRAV21 (30g Fire Assay with gravimetric finish).

The reported work will be completed using industry standard procedures, including a quality assurance/quality control (“QA/QC”) program consisting of the insertion of certified standard, blanks and duplicates into the sample stream.
