GoGold Resources Inc. (TSX: GGD) ("GoGold", "the Company") continues to deliver strong assay results from four new diamond drill holes at the recently acquired 29 concession Los Ricos project located about 100 km northwest of the city of Guadalajara, Mexico.

To date, 41 holes totalling 5,522m of HQ size drill core have been completed on the Los Ricos deposit with two drill machines. One drill is testing the Los Ricos vein extension along strike to the north of the underground workings while the second drill is completing a series of short holes spaced on 25m sections along the top of the deposit.

Drill hole LRGG-19-018 is the deepest hole to intersect the Los Ricos vein to date and cut 21.4m averaging 0.81 g/t gold, 170.1 g/t silver and 3.08 g/t gold equivalent, including 7.5m averaging 1.78 g/t gold, 342.4 g/t silver and 6.35 g/t gold equivalent. No workings were encountered in the hole and core recoveries were excellent.

The first of the short holes testing the upper portion of the deposit, LRGG-19-019, intersected the Los Ricos vein from 23.0m to 43.5m and encountered an open stope from 27.5 to 29.7m. The hanging wall portion of the vein above the stope averaged 1.50 g/t gold, 196.6 g/t silver and 4.13 g/t gold equivalent over 4.5m and vein averaged 0.63 g/t gold, 86.0 g/t silver and 1.78 g/t gold equivalent over 13.8m in the footwall portion of the vein beneath the stope.

Drill hole LRGG-19-020 cut 14.9m averaging 1.78 g/t gold, 106.4 g/t silver and 3.20 g/t gold equivalent. Drill hole LRGG-19-021 intersected the Los Ricos vein from 9.0m to 38.1m but encountered a 6.0m wide open stope between 16.5 to 22.5m. The footwall portion of vein immediately below the opening ran 1.15 g/t gold, 113.5 g/t silver and 2.67 g/t gold equivalent over 15.6m.

"We are very pleased to see the significant widths and grades encountered in the latest deep drill hole. The results from the initial short holes confirm that while the former underground operators focused on mining only the richest portion of the silver-rich Los Ricos vein, we are very encouraged to see the both the hanging wall and footwall portions of the vein are strongly mineralized this close to surface," stated Brad Langille, President and CEO.

Detailed intersections are in Table 1, and drill holes locations are included in Table 2. A longitudinal section summary of all the holes drilled at Los Ricos to date is available at https://gogoldresources.com/component/rsfiles/preview?path=diagrams%252FLosRicos_LongSec_20190724.pdf

GoGold commenced a 10,000 m diamond drilling program of HQ size core in conjunction with a field program of geological mapping, sampling and trenching on the property in March 2019. The core drilling campaign is focused on defining the mineralized halo around the historical high grade ore shoots as defined by the underground workings and the 65 historical RC drill holes on the property.

The diamond drill core (HQ size) is geologically logged, photographed and marked for sampling. When the sample lengths are determined, the full core is sawn with a diamond blade core saw with one half of the core being bagged and tagged for assay. The remaining half portion is returned to the core trays for storage and/or for metallurgical test work.

The sealed and tagged sample bags are transported to the ActLabs facility in Zacatecas, Mexico. ActLabs crushes the samples and prepares 200-300 gram pulp samples with ninety percent passing Tyler 150 mesh (106?m). The pulps are assayed for gold using a 50 gram charge by fire assay (Code 1A2-50) and over limits greater than 10 grams per tonne are re-assayed using a gravimetric finish (Code 1A3-50). Silver and multi-element analysis is completed using total digestion (Code 1F2 Total Digestion ICP). Over limits greater than 100 grams per tonne silver are re-assayed using a gravimetric finish (Code 8-Ag FA-GRAV Ag).

Quality Assurance / Quality Control and Data VerificationQuality assurance and quality control ("QA/QC") procedures monitor the chain-of-custody of the samples and includes the systematic insertion and monitoring of appropriate reference materials (certified standards, blanks and duplicates) into the sample strings. The results of the assaying of the QA/QC material included in each batch are tracked to ensure the integrity of the assay data. All results stated in this announcement have passed GoGold's QA/QC protocols.
