Wesdome Gold Mines Ltd. is pleased to update drilling progress in the 300W area of its wholly-owned Eagle River Mine, Wawa, Ontario.<\/p>\n

Figure 1 – 300 West Structure Recent Results, Longitudinal View Looking North<\/p><\/div>\n

Since the up-plunge potential of the 300W area was initially recognized (Press Release dated Sept 15, 2016), drilling has continued to confirm potential (Press Release dated April 27, 2017).\u00a0 We have now traced the zone 300 metres up-plunge where it appears to lengthen and remains open (Figure 1).<\/p>\n

    \n* high assays are cut (capped) at 140 g\/t Au<\/p>\n

    Complete new drilling data is provided in Table 1 with locations shown in Figure 1.<\/p>\n

    Duncan Middlemiss, President and CEO, commented “These new results are in a very desirable location with respect to existing development.\u00a0 We are currently developing an exploration\/access drive to this area on the 750 m level.\u00a0 Expanding resources at shallower depth that remain open and easily accessible support our plan to open up new working areas and increase underground production.\u00a0 Additionally, the grades of this 300 West extension are above the existing mine reserve grade which bode well for near term production.”<\/p>\n

    “The recent exploration success and near term potential of the Eagle River Mine parallel zones, which includes the high grade and above average width 300 E Zone, and the 7 Zone, have certainly given us cause to re-evaluate our near term plans. The 300 and 7 Zones are located north of the 8 Zone, which has been in production for the majority of the mine life and extends to the eastern extents of the mine diorite. Our focus will be to systematically explore for the presence of the parallel zones to the east with the goal of adding additional workplaces and increasing our production profile.”<\/p>\n

    The 300W area consists of steeply dipping, tabular, shear hosted quartz veins which occur in a quartz diorite stock near its contact with volcanic rocks. \u00a0The 300W remains open to the west and above as illustrated in Figure 1.<\/p>\n

    TECHNICAL DISCLOSURE<\/strong>
    \nAll assays are performed by fire assay on 25 gram aliquots at the Eagle River Mine assay office.\u00a0 Duplicates, replicates and blanks are routinely employed to monitor quality control.\u00a0 The technical content of this release has been compiled, reviewed and approved by George N. Mannard, P.Geo, Vice-President Exploration and “Qualified Person” as defined and required by National Instrument 43-101 “Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.”<\/em>\n<\/p>\n
