TORONTO, Jan. 10, 2019 /CNW/ - Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd. (TSXV: BGM) (the "Company" or "Barkerville") is pleased to announce drilling results of 50 holes from the 2018 Cow Mountain exploration and category conversion program at the Company's flagship Cariboo Gold Project. The recent drilling results demonstrate continuity of high grade gold mineralization within vein corridors and extensions down dip and down plunge. A total of 63,970 meters in 231 holes were drilled on Cow Mountain during the 2018 drill program.
Recent highlights from the Cow Mountain exploration and delineation program include 10.47 g/t Au over 7.30 meters in hole CM-18-164, located 20 meters down dip from CM-18-159, that intersected 8.70 g/t Au over 3.35 meters within an existing vein corridor. CM-18-153 intersected 8.96 g/t Au over 8.60 meters, including high grade intercepts of 17.40 g/t Au over 0.85 meter, 9.35 g/t Au over 0.50 meter and 33.30 g/t Au over 0.70 meter.

A drill hole location plan map and section are presented below. Detailed drilling results are presented at the end of this release. The Cow Mountain 3D deposit model with assay highlights is located on the Company's website:
Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd. 3D Deposit Model
The drill program at Cow Mountain was designed to infill and expand high-grade gold-mineralized vein corridors modelled in the May 2018 Cow Mountain resource estimate. Vein corridors are defined as a high-density network of mineralized quartz veins within the sandstones. Mineralized quartz veins on the Cariboo Gold Project are overall sub-vertical dip and northeast strike. These corridors have been defined from surface to a vertical depth of up to 300 meters and remain open for expansion at depth and down plunge. Gold grades are intimately associated with vein-hosted pyrite as well as pyritic, intensely silicified wall rock haloes in close proximity to the veins.
Qualified Persons
Exploration activities at the Cariboo Gold Project are administered on site by the Company's Project Geologists, Kyle Orr and Felipe Castaneda. As per National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, Maggie Layman, P.Geo. Vice President Exploration, is the Qualified Person for the Company and has prepared, validated and approved the technical and scientific content of this news release. The Company strictly adheres to CIM Best Practices Guidelines in conducting, documenting, and reporting its exploration activities on the Cariboo Gold Project.
Quality Assurance – Quality Control
Once received from the drill and processed, all drill core samples are sawn in half, labelled and bagged. The remaining drill core is subsequently stored on site at the Company's secure facility in Wells, BC. Numbered security tags are applied to lab shipments for chain of custody requirements. The Company inserts quality control (QC) samples at regular intervals in the sample stream, including blanks and reference materials with all sample shipments to monitor laboratory performance. The QAQC program was designed and approved by Lynda Bloom, P.Geo. of Analytical Solutions Ltd., and is overseen by the Company's Qualified Person, Maggie Layman, P.Geo, Vice President Exploration.
Drill core samples are submitted to ALS Geochemistry's analytical facility in North Vancouver, British Columbia for preparation and analysis. The ALS facility is accredited to the ISO/IEC 17025 standard for gold assays and all analytical methods include quality control materials at set frequencies with established data acceptance criteria. The entire sample is crushed, and 250 grams is pulverized. Analysis for gold is by 50g fire assay fusion with atomic absorption (AAS) finish with a lower limit of 0.01 ppm and upper limit of 100 ppm. Samples with gold assays greater than 100 ppm are re-analyzed using a 1,000g screen metallic fire assay. A selected number of samples are also analyzed using a 48 multi-elemental geochemical package by a 4-acid digestion, followed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectroscopy (ICP-MS).
About Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd.
The Company is focused on developing its extensive mineral rights package located in the historical Cariboo Mining District of central British Columbia. Barkerville's Cariboo Gold Project mineral tenures cover 1,950 square kilometres; along a strike length of 67 kilometres which includes several past producing placer and hard rock mines, making it one of the most well-endowed land packages in British Columbia. Since the management change in mid-2015, the Company has unlocked the fundamental structural controls of gold mineralization. The Company's Brownfield's exploration team is focused on developing and delineating a mineable resource within the 7 kilometers of principle project area located near the town of Wells, British Columbia. The Company's Greenfield's team is developing quality exploration assets throughout the remaining land package through systematic, scientific, exploration. The operation's team is focused on developing and mining the Bonanza Ledge and BC Vein deposits on Barkerville Mountain. This operation allows the company to generate near term cash flow, train a local work force, keeps the present mining permit active, and de-risk's the project through staged production growth. Processing of material from these deposits is processed at the QR mill. QR is a fully owned, permitted mill and tailings facility, located approximately 110 kilometres away from Wells, and can be accessed by an all-season road.

TORONTO, Jan. 23, 2019 /CNW/ - Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd. (TSXV: BGM) (the "Company" or "Barkerville") is pleased to announce the final drilling results from the 2018 Cow Mountain exploration and category conversion program at the Company's flagship Cariboo Gold Project. A total of 63,970 meters were drilled in 231 holes on Cow Mountain during the 2018 drill program and demonstrated continuity of high-grade gold mineralization within vein corridors and extensions down dip and down plunge.
Recent highlights from the Cow Mountain exploration and delineation program include 12.26 g/t Au over 7.60 meters in hole CM-18-206 including high-grade intercept of 97.8 g/t Au over 0.80 meter, located 15 meters up dip of hole CM-18-140 that intersected 37.87 g/t Au over 4.75 meters. The Company is currently working on an updated model to include the additional 231 holes.
Selected Drilling Highlights:
CM-18-201: 30.16 g/t Au over 2.8 metersCM-18-206: 12.26 g/t Au over 7.60 meters including 97.8 g/t Au over 0.80 metersCM-18-211: 105 g/t Au over 0.50 metersCM-18-220: 7.24 g/t Au over 5.50 metersCM-18-222: 11.77 g/t Au over 5.00 meters CM-18-222: 11.08 g/t Au over 6.00 metersCM-18-227: 46.49 g/t Au over 1.95 metersCM-18-231: 18.79 g/t Au over 3.95 metersTrue widths are estimated to be 50 to 75% of reported core length intervals. Intervals not recovered by drilling were assigned zero grade. Top cuts have not been applied to high grade assays.
A drill hole location plan map and section are presented below. Detailed drilling results are presented at the end of this release. The Cow Mountain 3D deposit model with assay highlights is located on the Company's website:
Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd. 3D Deposit Model
The drill program at Cow Mountain was designed to infill and expand high-grade gold-mineralized vein corridors modelled in the May 2018 Cow Mountain resource estimate. Vein corridors are defined as a high-density network of mineralized quartz veins within the sandstones. Mineralized quartz veins on the Cariboo Gold Project are overall sub-vertical dip and northeast strike. These corridors have been defined from surface to a vertical depth of up to 300 meters and remain open for expansion at depth and down plunge. Gold grades are intimately associated with vein-hosted pyrite as well as pyritic, intensely silicified wall rock haloes in close proximity to the veins.
Qualified Persons
Exploration activities at the Cariboo Gold Project are administered on site by the Company's Project Geologists, Kyle Orr and Felipe Castaneda. As per National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, Maggie Layman, P.Geo. Vice President Exploration, is the Qualified Person for the Company and has prepared, validated and approved the technical and scientific content of this news release. The Company strictly adheres to CIM Best Practices Guidelines in conducting, documenting, and reporting its exploration activities on the Cariboo Gold Project.
Quality Assurance – Quality Control
Once received from the drill and processed, all drill core samples are sawn in half, labelled and bagged. The remaining drill core is subsequently stored on site at the Company's secure facility in Wells, BC. Numbered security tags are applied to lab shipments for chain of custody requirements. The Company inserts quality control (QC) samples at regular intervals in the sample stream, including blanks and reference materials with all sample shipments to monitor laboratory performance. The QAQC program was designed and approved by Lynda Bloom, P.Geo. of Analytical Solutions Ltd., and is overseen by the Company's Qualified Person, Maggie Layman, P.Geo, Vice President Exploration.
Drill core samples are submitted to ALS Geochemistry's analytical facility in North Vancouver, British Columbia for preparation and analysis. The ALS facility is accredited to the ISO/IEC 17025 standard for gold assays and all analytical methods include quality control materials at set frequencies with established data acceptance criteria. The entire sample is crushed, and 250 grams is pulverized. Analysis for gold is by 50g fire assay fusion with atomic absorption (AAS) finish with a lower limit of 0.01 ppm and upper limit of 100 ppm. Samples with gold assays greater than 100 ppm are re-analyzed using a 1,000g screen metallic fire assay. A selected number of samples are also analyzed using a 48 multi-elemental geochemical package by a 4-acid digestion, followed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectroscopy (ICP-MS).
About Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd.

by @newswire on March 26, 2019
NEW DRILLING INTERSECTS 19.34 G/T GOLD OVER 17.9 METERS
TORONTO, March 26, 2019 /CNW/ - Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd. (TSXV: BGM. the "Company" or "BGM") is pleased to announce the new drilling results from the 2019 Island Mountain exploration and category conversion program at the Company's flagship Cariboo Gold Project in central British Columbia.
In January 2019, BGM commenced diamond drilling with five diamond drill rigs on Island Mountain Shaft Zone and Mosquito Creek deposits to investigate down dip extensions on the mineralized vein corridors as well as shallow infill high-grade zones. New results include 19.34 g/t Au over 17.9 meters in IM-19-013, extending a mineralized vein corridor on Shaft Zone 70 meters down dip. The current mineralization on Mosquito Creek is modelled to a depth of 200 meters and recent high-grade intercepts include 10.65 g/t Au over 4.2 meters in IM-19-004 at a depth of 375 meters from surface. These results, as well as the highlights summarized below, demonstrate continuity of grade and widths within the modelled vein corridors, expansion of mineralization at depth and anomalous mineralization between the vein corridors.
Select Drilling Highlights:
IM-19-004 is located at Mosquito Creek and intersected 10.65 g/t Au over 4.2 meterswhich extended the mineralization at Mosquito Creek from 200 meters to 375 meters. This is one of the deepest holes at Mosquito Creek to date.
IM-19-007 was designed to test for new vein corridors within the sandstone along strike of the Shaft Zone to the north west. IM-19-007 assayed 10.06 g/t Au over 13.15 meters and is 20 meters from surface.
IM-19-010 intersected a mineralized zone of fine disseminated pyrite within silica sericite alteration adjacent to the Mosquito Fault and modelled vein corridors. IM-19-010 assayed 1.25 g/t Au over 33.25 meters. A sample within this zone assayed 9.57 g/t Au over 1.5 meters. This mineralization is hosted in calcareous sandstone between the vein corridors and is 120 meters down plunge of IM-18-102 that assayed 1.35 g/t Au over 32.8 meters (a sample in this zone assayed 20.1 g/t over 0.5 meter) and 60 meters down plunge of hole IM-18-155 that assayed 1.32 g/t over 45.2 meters (a sample within this zone assayed 8.89 g/t Au over 1.25 meters). Mineralization between vein corridors will significantly reduce mining dilution.
IM-19-012 is located at Shaft Zone and intersected previously unmodelled quartz vein mineralization that assayed 7.02 g/t Au over 10.25 meters.
IM-19-013 intersected three zones of mineralization. At 92 meters down hole, IM-19-013 intersected 26.24 g/t Au over 2.4 meters meters infilling a vein corridor. Further down hole, IM-19-013 intersected quartz veins with pyrite mineralization that assayed 19.34 g/t Au over 17.9 meters including a sample that assayed 151.5 g/t Au over 0.50 meterand extended a modelled vein corridor 70 meters down dip. At 442 meters down hole, 350 meters from surface, this hole intersected 15.78 g/t Au over 5.35 meters, approximately 160 meters down dip of the nearest modelled vein corridor. Visible gold was observed in this hole.
True widths are estimated to be 50 to 75% of reported core length intervals. Intervals not recovered by drilling were assigned zero grade. Top cuts have not been applied to high grade assays.
A complete table of assay highlights for IM-19-001 to IM-19-015 is present below. The Shaft Zone 3D deposit model with assay highlights is located on the Company's website:
Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd. 3D Deposit Model
Mineralized quartz veins on the Cariboo Gold Project are overall sub-vertical dip and northeast strike. Vein corridors are defined as a high-density network of mineralized quartz veins within the sandstones. These corridors have been defined from surface to a vertical depth averaging 300 meters and remain open for expansion at depth and down plunge. Gold grades are intimately associated with vein-hosted pyrite as well as pyritic, intensely silicified wall rock haloes in close proximity to the veins.
Chris Lodder, President and CEO, comments, "again these drill results demonstrate the high probability to add significant resources below our present resources within the mineralized vein corridors on Island Mountain as well as connect the Shaft and Mosquito Creek zones".
Qualified Persons
As per National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, Maggie Layman, P.Geo. Vice President Exploration, is the Qualified Person for the Company and has prepared, validated and approved the technical and scientific content of this news release. The Company strictly adheres to CIM Best Practices Guidelines in conducting, documenting, and reporting its exploration activities on the Cariboo Gold Project.
Quality Assurance – Quality Control
Once received from the drill and processed, all drill core samples are sawn in half, labelled and bagged. The remaining drill core is subsequently stored on site at the Company's secure facility in Wells, BC. Numbered security tags are applied to lab shipments for chain of custody requirements. The Company inserts quality control (QC) samples at regular intervals in the sample stream, including blanks and reference materials with all sample shipments to monitor laboratory performance. The QAQC program was designed and approved by Lynda Bloom, P.Geo. of Analytical Solutions Ltd.
Drill core samples are submitted to ALS Geochemistry's analytical facility in North Vancouver, British Columbia for preparation and analysis. The ALS facility is accredited to the ISO/IEC 17025 standard for gold assays and all analytical methods include quality control materials at set frequencies with established data acceptance criteria. The entire sample is crushed, and 250 grams is pulverized. Analysis for gold is by 50g fire assay fusion with atomic absorption (AAS) finish with a lower limit of 0.01 ppm and upper limit of 100 ppm. Samples with gold assays greater than 100 ppm are re-analyzed using a 1,000g screen metallic fire assay. A selected number of samples are also analyzed using a 48 multi-elemental geochemical package by a 4-acid digestion, followed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectroscopy (ICP-MS).

Canada NewsWire
TORONTO, May 2, 2019
TORONTO, May 2, 2019 /CNW/ - Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd. (TSXV: BGM. the "Company" or "BGM") is pleased to announce the new drilling results from the 2019 Island Mountain exploration and category conversion program at the Company's flagship Cariboo Gold Project in central British Columbia.
image: mma.prnewswire.com
New results from eight recent holes on Island Mountain include 10.76 g/t Au over 20.0 meters including a sample of 157.50 g/t Au over 1.25 meters in IM-19-019, extending a mineralized vein corridor on Shaft Zone 60 meters down dip to a vertical depth of 450 meters. Infill hole IM-19-020 intersected 162.5 g/t Au over 0.50 meter outside of an existing vein corridor. IM-19-023 intersected five new previously unmodelled zones including 21.97 g/t Au over 4.05 meters. These results, as well as the highlights summarized below, demonstrate continuity of grade and widths within the modelled vein corridors, expansion of mineralization at depth and anomalous mineralization between the vein corridors.
Select Drilling Highlights:
IM-19-019 is located at Shaft Zone on Island Mountain and was designed to investigate down dip extensions on the mineralized vein corridors as well as shallow infill high-grade zones. IM-19-019 was successful at intersecting multiple high-grade intercepts of gold mineralization including 27.60 g/t Au over 1.40 meters within a modelled vein corridor and further down hole, at a vertical depth of 450 meters, IM-19-019 intersected 10.76 g/t Au over 20.0 meters vein corridor within sericite altered siltstone-sandstone and includes a sample that assayed 157.50 g/t over 1.25 meters. Mineralization continued to depth of 543 meters down hole, with a sample grading 11.85 g/t Au over 0.50 meter.
IM-19-020 was designed to infill shallow, high-grade vein corridors on Shaft Zone and intersected a quartz vein hosting up to 80% pyrite vein outside a previously modelled vein corridor that assayed 162.50 g/t over 0.50 meter at a vertical depth of 115 meters.
IM-19-023 is a 684-meter-deep hole and intersected five main zones of mineralization. At 194.5 meters down hole, IM-19-023 intersected previously unmodelled quartz veins that assayed 21.97 g/t Au over 4.05 meters including a sample of 87.60 g/t over 0.75 meters. At depth, a zone of strong silica alteration within sandstone and calcareous sandstone is present from 438 meters to 493 meters and exhibits multiple vein corridors with disseminated pyrite and cosalite not previously modelled and extend veins at depth. At 434.70 meters down hole, a mineralized zone assayed 6.78 g/t Au over 3.30 meters and 65 meters down dip of a modelled vein corridor. At 450.25 meters, 10.57 g/t Au over 5.60 meters, at 471 meters depth, 4.33 g/t Au over 3.70 metersincluding 12.95 g/t Au over 1.00 meter, at 485.35 meters depth 10.12 g/t Au over 7.95 meters.
True widths are estimated to be 50 to 75% of reported core length intervals. Intervals not recovered by drilling were assigned zero grade. Top cuts have not been applied to high grade assays.
A complete table of assay highlights for IM-19-016 to IM-19-023 is present below. The Shaft Zone 3D deposit model with assay highlights is located on the Company's website:
Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd. 3D Deposit Model
Mineralized quartz veins on the Cariboo Gold Project are overall sub-vertical dip and northeast strike. Vein corridors are defined as a high-density network of mineralized quartz veins within the sandstones. These corridors have been defined from surface to a vertical depth averaging 300 meters and remain open for expansion at depth and down plunge. Gold grades are intimately associated with vein-hosted pyrite as well as pyritic, intensely silicified wall rock haloes in close proximity to the veins.
Qualified Persons
As per National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, Maggie Layman, P.Geo. Vice President Exploration, is the Qualified Person for the Company and has prepared, validated and approved the technical and scientific content of this news release. The Company strictly adheres to CIM Best Practices Guidelines in conducting, documenting, and reporting its exploration activities on the Cariboo Gold Project.
Quality Assurance – Quality Control
Once received from the drill and processed, all drill core samples are sawn in half, labelled and bagged. The remaining drill core is subsequently stored on site at the Company's secure facility in Wells, BC. Numbered security tags are applied to lab shipments for chain of custody requirements. The Company inserts quality control (QC) samples at regular intervals in the sample stream, including blanks and reference materials with all sample shipments to monitor laboratory performance. The QAQC program was designed and approved by Lynda Bloom, P.Geo. of Analytical Solutions Ltd.
Drill core samples are submitted to ALS Geochemistry's analytical facility in North Vancouver, British Columbia for preparation and analysis. The ALS facility is accredited to the ISO/IEC 17025 standard for gold assays and all analytical methods include quality control materials at set frequencies with established data acceptance criteria. The entire sample is crushed, and 250 grams is pulverized. Analysis for gold is by 50g fire assay fusion with atomic absorption (AAS) finish with a lower limit of 0.01 ppm and upper limit of 100 ppm. Samples with gold assays greater than 100 ppm are re-analyzed using a 1,000g screen metallic fire assay. A selected number of samples are also analyzed using a 48 multi-elemental geochemical package by a 4-acid digestion, followed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectroscopy (ICP-MS).
