Gold Standard Phase 2 Final Drill Holes Intersect Shallow Oxide Gold at Northwest Pinion and Extends the Gold Zone 245m South at South Pinion, Carlin Trend Nevada
Holes Include Oxidized Intercepts of 51.8m of 0.50g Au/t and 29.0m of 0.64g Au/t
(firmenpresse) - VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 03/31/15 -- Gold Standard Ventures Corp. (TSX VENTURE: GSV)(NYSE MKT: GSV) ("Gold Standard" or the "Company") today announced assay results of the final eleven reverse-circulation (RC) holes from the western portion of the Pinion Phase 2 drilling program at its 100%-owned Railroad-Pinion Project on Nevada's Carlin Trend. All eleven holes returned intercepts with gold values above the 0.14 grams per tonne (g Au/t) cut-off grade established by APEX Geoscience Ltd. of Edmonton, Canada in its NI 43-101 resource estimate announced on September 10, 2014 (see news release), with intercepts up to 51.8 meters of 0.50 g Au/t in hole PIN14-52.
Phase 2 drilling was designed to extend areas of known shallow oxide gold mineralization along strike and at depth, and to test new targets identified by the Phase 1 program. Phase 2 (now completed) included 10,893m of RC drilling in 44 holes (click the following link for a Pinion Phase 2 drill hole map and cross section: ).
Key Observations:
Drill results are as follows:
Mac Jackson, Gold Standard's Vice President of Exploration stated, "Our phase 2 drill program has successfully expanded the oxide gold zone at Pinion, and very importantly, it remains open in multiple directions. The drill intercepts and rock chip sample results specific to this release show that collapse breccia hosted gold continues northwest from the known resource along the South fault zone. Several untested structural intersections within the South fault zone to the northwest of Pinion have the potential to host new gold deposits. These opportunities for expansion, growth and the discovery of new deposits are typical of the large gold systems located on the Carlin Trend, and we look forward to pursuing them during our 2015 exploration program."
Sampling Methodology, Chain of Custody, Quality Control and Quality Assurance:
All sampling was conducted under the supervision of the Company's project geologists and the chain of custody from the drill to the sample preparation facility was continuously monitored. A blank or certified reference material was inserted approximately every tenth sample. The samples are delivered to ALS Minerals preparation facility in Elko, NV. The samples are crushed and pulverized and sample pulps are shipped to ALS Minerals certified laboratory in Vancouver. Pulps are digested and analyzed for gold using fire assay fusion and an atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) finish on a 30 gram split. All other elements are determined by ICP analysis. Data verification of the analytical results includes a statistical analysis of the duplicates, standards and blanks that must pass certain parameters for acceptance to insure accurate and verifiable results.

CAUTIONARY NOTE FOR U.S. INVESTORS REGARDING RESERVE AND RESOURCE ESTIMATES
All resource estimates reported by the Company were calculated in accordance with the Canadian National Instrument 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy Classification system. These standards differ significantly from the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for descriptions of mineral properties in SEC Industry Guide 7 under Regulation S-K of the U. S. Securities Act of 1933. In particular, under U. S. standards, mineral resources may not be classified as a "reserve" unless the determination has been made that mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. Accordingly, information in this press release containing descriptions of the Company's mineral properties may not be comparable to similar information made public by US public reporting companies.
