A2GOLD COMMENCES EXPANDED GRAVITY SURVEY TO ADVANCE HIGH-PRIORITY TARGETS AT EASTSIDE

A2 Gold Corp. has commenced an expanded gravity survey at its 100-per-cent-owned Eastside project in Esmeralda county in Nevada. The expanded program is designed to further delineate and gain clarity on several newly identified geophysical targets that were only partially captured along the margins of the company's recently completed, property-wide gravity survey.

Initial interpretation of the original gravity data identified multiple compelling anomalies at or near the edges of the survey area. These targets extend into areas of more extreme topographic relief that were not included in the initial survey design due to access and terrain considerations. However, the strength, continuity and geological context of the partially imaged anomalies were considered sufficiently compelling to warrant additional gravity coverage.

The expanded gravity survey will extend coverage into these previously unsurveyed areas to fully resolve the geometry and extent of the emerging targets. The company believes this additional data will provide important insight into potential extensions of the Eastside mineralized system and will further refine drill targeting ahead of planned exploration drilling.

Peter Gianulis, chief executive officer of A2 Gold, commented: "The original gravity survey exceeded our expectations and revealed a much larger and more complex system than previously understood. Several intriguing anomalies were cut off at the edges of the survey due to rugged terrain. Given the quality of these partial targets, we felt it was critical to expand the survey to properly image them and understand their relationship to known mineralization and regional structures. This additional work is already under way and will directly inform our upcoming drill programs."

The expanded gravity survey is currently in progress, and will be integrated with existing gravity, airborne magnetic, radiometric and geological data sets. Results from the expanded survey will be used to refine drill hole locations targeting pediment-covered extensions, structural corridors and potential repetitions of favoruable host lithologies identified elsewhere on the property.

Compensation securities

The company has granted 150,000 stock options to directors, officers and consultants of the company. The stock options are exercisable at $1.39, vest over a one-year period and expire five years from the date of grant.

The company has also granted 60,000 restricted stock units (RSUs) to a consultant of the company. The RSUs will vest over a two-year period and expire on Dec. 31, 2029.

About Eastside

The Eastside gold-silver project is located in Esmeralda county in Nevada, approximately 20-plus miles northwest of Tonopah, within the prolific Walker Lane trend. The project hosts a current inferred resource of 1.4 million ounces of gold and 8.8 million ounces of silver, with mineralization open in all directions. Eastside covers a 92-square-kilometre land package that includes multiple high-priority zones, such as McIntosh, Castle and other exploration targets yet to be named.

About A2 Gold Corp.

A2 Gold owns three highly prospective gold projects in the United States, all of which are in the mining-friendly jurisdiction of Nevada. A2 Gold's flagship, district-scale Eastside gold-silver project hosts a large and expanding gold and silver resource, and is in an area of excellent infrastructure. Preliminary metallurgical testing indicates that both oxide and sulphide gold mineralization at Eastside is amenable to heap leaching.
