Corvus Gold Inc. (“Corvus” or the “Company”) - (TSX: KOR, NASDAQ:
KOR) announces it has received additional results from its new
Lynnda Strip discovery east and west of the previously announced
discovery hole ML20-168 (NR20-17: 106.7m @ 0.71g/t gold & 48.8m
@ 0.90 g/t gold). The new oxide, vein intersections are within
broad zones of lower-grade disseminated mineralization highlighted
by an Upper Zone vein in hole ML20-170 (42.7m @ 2.06 g/t gold
including 12.2m @ 4.88 g/t gold) and a Lower Zone vein in hole
ML20-166 (33.5m @ 1.63 g/t gold including 7.6m @ 3.96 g/t gold).
These thick zones of mineralization continue to display a gold
system thickness of 150-200 metres that all end in mineralization
indicating additional potential at depth (Figure 1 & Table 1).
The higher-grade vein systems at Lynnda Strip
are associated with gray quartz stockwork systems that best develop
along moderately west dipping north-south structural zones and
reactively flat, east dipping stratigraphic contact related zones
(Figure 2). These veins appear related to subsidiary, structural
zones in the hanging wall of large displacement, north-south
trending major faults and are surrounded by broad zones of
disseminated lower-grade oxide gold mineralization. Corvus believes
that ongoing core drilling at Lynnda Strip has shown the system
could extend an addition 100 metres below the initial RC drill
holes announced to date with oxidation that could be excess of 500
metres deep.
The dimensions of the Lynnda Strip system is in
excess of 500 metres East-West and is displaying a system thickness
that could be in excess of 200 metres. As like other systems
in the Bullfrog District that are related to North-South trending
structural zones, the potential strike extent could be multiples of
the currently known width. Corvus believes that this
system could be very large and currently appears to be a
higher-grade heap-leach open pit deposit. Corvus’ strategic land
position will allow it to assess the width of this north-south
trending system which initially will target an approximate 1
km-long fence assessing three major structural zones: Lynnda Strip,
South Merlin and Owl Creek which is the north extension of Mother
Lode zone (Figure 3 & 4).
Jeffrey Pontius, President and CEO of Corvus,
said, “These new results from Lynnda Strip along with the deep
extension of the gold system that we see in the on-going core
drilling program is outlining a large new discovery of a deeply
oxidized heap leach deposit. Corvus’ continued assessment and
definition of its size and quality will be a major interest driver
for the District. The Lynnda Strip target is blind, under
non-mineralized cover, resembling all major discoveries made in the
District to date and reinforces the exploration potential of this
area. When looked at in the context of other western Nevada major,
volcanic related gold systems like Round Mountain and Comstock, we
could be just scratching the surface of the potential of this
re-emerging Nevada Gold District.”

Cautionary Note Regarding
Forward-Looking Statements
This news release contains forward-looking
statements and forward-looking information (collectively,
“forward-looking statements”) within the meaning of applicable
Canadian and US securities legislation. All statements, other than
statements of historical fact, included herein including, without
limitation, statements regarding the possible events, conditions or
financial performance that is based on assumptions about future
economic conditions and courses of action; potential expansion of
the deposit; the rapid and effective capture of the potential of
our Mother Lode project; the potential for new deposits and
expected increases in the system’s potential; anticipated content,
commencement and cost of exploration programs; anticipated
exploration program results and expansion of existing programs; the
discovery and delineation of mineral deposits/resources/reserves;
the potential to discover additional high grade veins or additional
deposits; the growth potential of the Mother Lode projects; and the
potential for any mining or production at the Mother Lode &
North Bullfrog projects, are forward-looking statements.
Information concerning mineral resource estimates may be deemed to
be forward-looking statements in that it reflects a prediction of
the mineralization that would be encountered if a mineral deposit
were developed and mined. Although the Company believes that such
statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such
expectations will prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements
are typically identified by words such as: believe, expect,
anticipate, intend, estimate, postulate and similar expressions, or
are those, which, by their nature, refer to future events. The
Company cautions investors that any forward-looking statements by
the Company are not guarantees of future results or performance,
and that actual results may differ materially from those in forward
looking statements as a result of various factors, including, but
not limited to, variations in the nature, quality and quantity of
any mineral deposits that may be located, variations in the market
price of any mineral products the Company may produce or plan to
produce, the Company's inability to obtain any necessary permits,
consents or authorizations required for its activities, the
Company's inability to produce minerals from its properties
successfully or profitably, to continue its projected growth, to
raise the necessary capital or to be fully able to implement its
business strategies, and other risks and uncertainties disclosed in
the Company’s 2020 Annual Information Form and latest interim
Management Discussion and Analysis filed with certain securities
commissions in Canada and the Company’s most recent filings with
the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking
statements, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.
All of the Company’s Canadian public disclosure filings in Canada
may be accessed via www.sedar.com and filings with the SEC may be
accessed via www.sec.gov and readers are urged to review these
materials, including the technical reports filed with respect to
the Company’s mineral properties.
Cautionary Note to US
Investors
NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian
Securities Administrators which establishes standards for all
public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical
information concerning mineral projects. Unless otherwise
indicated, all resource estimates contained in or incorporated by
reference in this press release have been prepared in accordance
with NI 43-101 and the guidelines set out in the Canadian Institute
of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”) Standards on
Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council
on November 14, 2004 (the “CIM Standards”) as they may be amended
from time to time by the CIM.
United States investors are cautioned that the
requirements and terminology of NI 43-101 and the CIM Standards
differ significantly from the requirements and terminology of the
SEC set forth in the SEC’s Industry Guide 7 (“SEC Industry Guide
7”). Accordingly, the Company’s disclosures regarding
mineralization may not be comparable to similar information
disclosed by companies subject to SEC Industry Guide 7. Without
limiting the foregoing, while the terms “mineral resources”,
“inferred mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and
“measured mineral resources” are recognized and required by NI
43-101 and the CIM Standards, they are not recognized by the SEC
and are not permitted to be used in documents filed with the SEC by
companies subject to SEC Industry Guide 7. Mineral resources which
are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic
viability, and US investors are cautioned not to assume that all or
any part of a mineral resource will ever be converted into
reserves. Further, inferred resources have a great amount of
uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be
mined legally or economically. It cannot be assumed that all or any
part of the inferred resources will ever be upgraded to a higher
resource category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred
mineral resources may not form the basis of a feasibility study or
prefeasibility study, except in rare cases. The SEC normally only
permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute
SEC Industry Guide 7 compliant “reserves” as in-place tonnage and
grade without reference to unit amounts. The term “contained
ounces” is not permitted under the rules of SEC Industry Guide 7.
In addition, the NI 43-101 and CIM Standards definition of a
“reserve” differs from the definition in SEC Industry Guide 7. In
SEC Industry Guide 7, a mineral reserve is defined as a part of a
mineral deposit which could be economically and legally extracted
or produced at the time the mineral reserve determination is made,
and a “final” or “bankable” feasibility study is required to report
reserves, the three-year historical price is used in any reserve or
cash flow analysis of designated reserves and the primary
environmental analysis or report must be filed with the appropriate
governmental authority. The mine economics presented herein and
derived from the PEA are preliminary in nature and may not be
realized. The PEA is not a feasibility study. U.S. investors are
urged to consider closely the disclosure in our latest reports and
registration statements filed with the SEC. You can review and
obtain copies of these filings at http://www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml.
U.S. Investors are cautioned not to assume that any defined
resource will ever be converted into SEC Industry Guide 7 compliant
reserves.
This press release is not, and is not to be
construed in any way as, an offer to buy or sell securities in the
United States.
The United States Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”) limits disclosure for U.S. reporting purposes to
mineral deposits that a company can economically and legally
extract or produce. Resource estimates contained in this press
release are made pursuant to NI 43-101 standards in Canada and do
not represent reserves under the standards of the SEC’s Industry
Guide 7. Under the currently applicable SEC Industry Guide 7
standards, a “final” or “bankable” feasibility study is required to
report reserves, the three-year historical average price is used in
any reserve or cash flow analysis to designate reserves and all
necessary permits and government approvals must be filed with the
appropriate governmental authority. This press release uses the
terms “Measured Resources”, “Indicated Resources”, and “Inferred
Resources”. We advise U.S. investors that while these terms are
Canadian mining terms as defined in accordance with NI 43-101, such
terms are not recognized under SEC Industry Guide 7 and normally
are not permitted to be used in reports and registration statements
filed with the SEC. Mineral resources described in this press
release have a great amount of uncertainty as to their economic and
legal feasibility. The SEC normally only permits issuers to report
mineralization that does not constitute SEC Industry Guide 7
compliant “reserves” as in-place tonnage and grade, without
reference to unit measures. “Inferred Resources” have a great
amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty
as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed
that any or all part of an Inferred Resource will ever be upgraded
to a higher category. U.S. Investors are cautioned not to
assume that any part or all of mineral deposits in these categories
will ever be converted into SEC Industry Guide 7
reserves.
