Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd. announced the new drilling results from the 2019 Island Mountain exploration and category conversion program at the Company's Cariboo Gold Project in central British Columbia. New results from eight recent holes on Island Mountain include 10.76 g/t Au over 20.0 meters including a sample of 157.50 g/t Au over 1.25 meters in IM-19-019, extending a mineralized vein corridor on Shaft Zone 60 meters down dip to a vertical depth of 450 meters. Infill hole IM-19-020 intersected 162.5 g/t Au over 0.50 meter outside of an existing vein corridor. IM-19-023 intersected five new previously unmodelled zones including 21.97 g/t Au over 4.05 meters. These results, as well as the highlights summarized below, demonstrate continuity of grade and widths within the modelled vein corridors, expansion of mineralization at depth and anomalous mineralization between the vein corridors. IM-19-019 is located at Shaft Zone on Island Mountain and was designed to investigate down dip extensions on the mineralized vein corridors as well as shallow infill high-grade zones. IM-19-019 was successful at intersecting multiple high-grade intercepts of gold mineralization including 27.60 g/t Au over 1.40 meters within a modelled vein corridor and further down hole, at a vertical depth of 450 meters, IM-19-019 intersected 10.76 g/t Auover 20.0 meters vein corridor within sericite altered siltstone-sandstone and includes a sample that assayed 157.50 g/t over 1.25 meters. Mineralization continued to depth of 543 meters down hole, with a sample grading 11.85 g/t Au over 0.50 meter. IM-19-020 was designed to infill shallow, high-grade vein corridors on Shaft Zone and intersected a quartz vein hosting up to 80% pyrite vein outside a previously modelled vein corridor that assayed 162.50 g/t over 0.50 meter at a vertical depth of 115 meters. IM-19-023 is a 684-meter-deep hole and intersected five main zones of mineralization. At 194.5 meters down hole, IM-19-023 intersected previously unmodelled quartz veins that assayed 21.97 g/t Au over 4.05 meters including a sample of 87.60 g/t over 0.75 meters. At depth, a zone of strong silica alteration within sandstone and calcareous sandstone is present from 438 meters to 493 meters and exhibits multiple vein corridors with disseminated pyrite and cosalite not previously modelled and extend veins at depth.  At 434.70 meters down hole, a mineralized zone assayed 6.78 g/t Au over 3.30 meters and 65 meters down dip of a modelled vein corridor. At 450.25 meters, 10.57 g/t Au over 5.60 meters, at 471 meters depth, 4.33 g/t Au over 3.70 meters including 12.95 g/t Au over 1.00 meter, at 485.35 meters depth 10.12 g/t Au over 7.95 meters. True widths are estimated to be 50 to 75% of reported core length intervals. Intervals not recovered by drilling were assigned zero grade. Top cuts have not been applied to high grade assays. Mineralized quartz veins on the Cariboo Gold Project are overall sub-vertical dip and northeast strike.  Vein corridors are defined as a high-density network of mineralized quartz veins within the sandstones. These corridors have been defined from surface to a vertical depth averaging 300 meters and remain open for expansion at depth and down plunge. Gold grades are intimately associated with vein-hosted pyrite as well as pyritic, intensely silicified wall rock haloes in close proximity to the veins.
