ABOUT SOLGOLD
SolGold is a leading resources company focussed on the
discovery, definition and development of world-class copper and
gold deposits. In 2018, SolGold's management team was recognised by
the "Mines and Money" Forum as an example of excellence in the
industry and continues to strive to deliver objectives efficiently
and in the interests of shareholders. SolGold is aggressively
exploring the length and breadth of this highly prospective and
gold-rich section of the Andean Copper Belt which is currently
responsible for c40% of global mined copper production.
The Company operates with transparency and in accordance with
international best practices. SolGold is committed to delivering
value to its shareholders, while simultaneously providing economic
and social benefits to impacted communities, fostering a healthy
and safe workplace and minimizing the environmental impact.
Dedicated stakeholders
SolGold employs a staff of approximately 800 employees of whom
98% are Ecuadorean. This is expected to grow as the operations
expand at Cascabel, and in Ecuador generally. SolGold focusses its
operations to be safe, reliable and environmentally responsible and
maintains close relationships with its local communities. SolGold
has engaged an increasingly skilled, refined and experienced team
of geoscientists using state of the art geophysical and geochemical
modelling applied to an extensive database to enable the delivery
of ore grade intersections from nearly every drill hole at Alpala.
SolGold has close to 60 geologists on the ground in Ecuador
exploring for economic copper and gold deposits.
About Cascabel and Alpala
The Alpala deposit is the main target in the Cascabel
concession, located on the northern section of the heavily endowed
Andean Copper Belt, the entirety of which is renowned as the base
for nearly half of the world's copper production. The project area
hosts mineralisation of Eocene age, the same age as numerous Tier 1
deposits along the Andean Copper Belt in Chile and Peru to the
south. The project base is located at Rocafuerte within the
Cascabel concession in northern Ecuador, an approximately
three-hour drive on sealed highway north of the capital Quito,
close to water, power supply and Pacific ports.
Having fulfilled its earn-in requirements, SolGold is a
registered shareholder with an unencumbered legal and beneficial
85% interest in ENSA (Exploraciones Novomining S.A.) which holds
100% of the Cascabel concession covering approximately 50km(2) .
The junior equity owner in ENSA is required to repay 15% of costs
since SolGold's earn in was completed, from 90% of its share of
distribution of earnings or dividends from ENSA or the Cascabel
concession. It is also required to contribute to development or be
diluted, and if its interest falls below 10%, it shall reduce to a
0.5% NSR royalty which SolGold may acquire for US$3.5million.
SolGold's Regional Exploration Drive
SolGold is using its successful and cost-efficient blueprint
established at Alpala, and Cascabel generally, to explore for
additional world class copper and gold projects across Ecuador.
SolGold is a large and active concessionaire in Ecuador.
The Company wholly owns four other subsidiaries active
throughout the country that are now focussed on a number of high
priority copper and gold resource targets, several of which the
Company believes have the potential, subject to resource definition
and feasibility, to be developed in close succession or even on a
more accelerated basis compared to Alpala.
SolGold is listed on the London Stock Exchange and Toronto Stock
Exchange (LSE/TSX: SOLG). The Company has on issue a total of
2,293,816,433 fully paid ordinary shares and 32,250,000 share
options.

Accordingly, the reader should not rely on any interpretations
or forward-looking statements; and save as required by the exchange
rules of the TSX and LSE or by applicable laws, the Company does

projects changes with time expenditure, metals prices and other
affecting circumstances.
This release may contain "forward--looking information" within
the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation.
Forward--looking information includes, but is not limited to,

such information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and
future events could differ materially from those anticipated in
such statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from such forward-looking information include, but are
not limited to, risks relating to the ability of exploration
activities (including assay results) to accurately predict
mineralization; errors in management's geological modelling and/or
