Bullfrog Gold to Start Drill Program at its Nevada Project
April 08 2020 - 11:03AM
via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- Bullfrog Gold Corp (BFGC:OTCQB; BFG:CSE;
11B:FSE) (“Bullfrog”, “BFGC” or the “Company”) is pleased to
announce a drill program at its Bullfrog Project (“Project”)
located 125 miles NW of Las Vegas, Nevada. Arrangements for site
preparation and drilling are in place and an accredited laboratory
in Reno has been engaged to assay drill samples. The program is
fully funded and permitted, cash reclamation bonds have been posted
and a cultural-archaeological survey was recently completed to
allow drilling on lands leased and optioned to purchase from
Barrick Bullfrog Inc. The direct program cost is estimated at
$500,000 for drilling, assaying, geological personnel and field
services. The program consists of drilling 9,000 feet in 17 holes
as described below during a 6 week period starting in early May,
unless changes are imposed by the coronavirus crisis.
- Drilling priority holes NE of the existing Bullfrog and
around the Montgomery-Shoshone pits to expand resources and pit
limits. Most of this drilling will be on lands leased from
Barrick and is required to meet final work commitments and thereby
allow the purchase of said lands by September 23, 2020. After drill
results are analyzed, a few additional holes will likely be drilled
in a subsequent program to fully optimize ultimate pit limits.
- A few priority, but discretionary holes are planned in
our new Paradise Ridge exploration target located one mile east of
the Bullfrog Pit. Geological studies of this target have identified
an undrilled area 2,000 meters long and 350 meters wide that has
the identical host rocks as the 2+ million ounce Bullfrog deposit,
similar structures and gold in surface samples. Testing the entire
target will require much more drilling in subsequent
programs.
In summary, the Company is committed to conserve
cash during the global crisis but will also meet its 2020
obligations while adding value and advancing the Project.
About Bullfrog Gold Corp.
Bullfrog Gold Corp. is a Delaware corporation that
controls the commanding land and mineral positions in the Bullfrog
Mine area where Barrick Bullfrog Inc. produced 2.3 million ounces
of gold by conventional milling beginning in 1989 and closing in
early 1999 when the gold price was under $300/ounce.
The large data base obtained from Barrick includes
detailed information on 155 miles of drilling in the Bullfrog area.
An independent 43-101 report prepared in 2017 estimated
mineralization at 624,000 ounces at 0.7 g/tonne gold within
expanded pit plans on the Company’s lands based on a gold price of
$1,200 and heap leaching. An annual production rate of at least
60,000 ounces is currently envisioned by management, or more
depending on success from drill programs. Much additional

Such forward-looking information and statements
are based on numerous assumptions, including among others, the
Company's ability to successfully maintain its listings, the
stability of industry and market costs and trends and the Company's
ability to obtain all regulatory approvals required for its planned
objectives. Furthermore, by their very nature, forward-looking
information involves a variety of known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual plans,
