Results further corroborate the continuity of the mineralized structure, which now extends to a vertical depth of up to 180 meters, as well as the high-grade nature of the Eleonore zone.

Latest results also demonstrate that the strike extension of the high-grade gold mineralized structure now extends more than 180 vertical meters.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cThe Phase IV drilling program was designed to upgrade a significant portion of Eleonore inferred resources to the indicated and measured categories,\u201d said Algold Executive Vice-President, Exploration Francois Auclair. \u201cThe assay results received to date have not only exceeded our expectations, but should result in the addition of significantly more gold ounces to the project.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The Phase IV 10,000-meter RC and 5,000-meter diamond-drill (\u201cDDH\u201d) drilling program was initiated on May 7, 2018 with the objective to convert Inferred Resources to the Indicated and Measured categories, using 40\u00d740 and 40\u00d780 meter grids. As of June 17, 2018, 2,157 meters of DDH drilling and 5,682 meters of RC drilling had been completed.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">As of June 18, 2018, 2626 samples from the Phase IV drilling program had been sent for analysis to the SGS lab facility in Bamako, Mali. Only partial results are presented in this press release, representing approximately 50% of the total number of drill samples sent to the SGS Bamako lab facility in May and June 2018.

The 50 g fire assay with ASS finish analytical services are accredited by SANAS and are carried out with a quality assurance protocol in line with ISO 17025:2005. Samples are stored at the Corporation&#8217;s field camps and put into sealed bags until delivered by a geologist on behalf of Algold to the laboratory in Bamako, Mali, where samples are prepared and analyzed. Until the end of 2016, samples were analyzed at ALS&#8217;s facility in Loughrea, Ireland. Beginning in 2017, samples are analyzed at SGS Laboratory, Bamako. Samples are logged in the tracking system, weighed, dried and finely crushed to better than 70%, passing a 2 mm (Tyler 9 mesh, US Std. No.10) screen. A split of up to 1,000 g is taken and pulverized to better than 85%, passing a 75-micron (Tyler 200 mesh) screen, and a 50-gram split is analyzed by fire assay with an AA finish.  Anomalous samples greater than 5 g\/t Au are re-analyzed by 50 g fire assay with gravimetric finish.  Selected samples may be re-analyzed using a 1 kg cyanide leach (Bottle Roll) using \u201cLeachWELL\u201d or the 1 kg screen fire assay method.  Blanks, duplicates and certified reference material (standards) are inserted to monitor laboratory performance during the analysis.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">This press release has been reviewed for accuracy and compliance under National Instrument 43-101 by Andr\u00e9 Ciesielski, DSc., PGeo., Algold Resources Ltd Lead Consulting Geologist and Qualified Person, and Alastair Gallaugher, C.Geo.
