Enforcer Gold reports additional diamond drilling results from the Montalembert Gold Project

TSX-V: VEIN | FSE: N071

TORONTO, Oct. 26, 2017 /CNW/ - Enforcer Gold Corp. ("Enforcer" or the "Company") (TSX-V: VEIN – FSE: N071) is pleased to report further results from its 2017 diamond drilling program at the Montalembert Gold Project.

Highlights:

• Drilling has intersected visible gold in 5 holes to date
• MD170022 returned 13.70 g/t Au over 0.5 m and 17.50 g/t Au over 1.0 m
• Gold mineralization above 0.5 g/t found in 18 of 35 holes reported to date
• All drill holes have intersected structures with quartz+/-carbonate veining, sulphides and alteration
• Gold mineralization found in shear structures extends over 400 metres in strike length (open) and has been intersected up to 110 metres vertical depth (open)
• Drill testing of interpreted geophysical anomalies has intersected the southern strike extension of the No.2 - No3 vein structure and additional shear veins to the east

Final results have been received for 28 of the 45 holes drilled during the 2017 field season. Visible gold was noted in holes MDD170004, 170006, 170022, 170032 and 170039.

Assays reported in Table 1 include one hole drilled on the Galena Vein, 3 holes on the No. 2 Vein and 8 holes on the No. 3 Vein, which is now interpreted to be the southern extension of the No. 2 Vein.

Hole 22 was drilled to the east at -44° dip and intersected the No. 2-3 vein structure from ~142 to 154 m downhole. Quartz veining and shear foliation within this intersection is measured at 10-20° degrees to the core axis, indicating a flattening of the dip of the No. 2-3 vein structure from ~80-85°E at surface to ~55° E at 100 m depth. As such, the true width of the structure that was intersected over a 12 m downhole core length is likely closer to the average 1-2 m width that is seen at surface. Visible gold was noted at 153.5 m downhole.

In addition to intersecting the No. 2-3 vein structure, holes 24-29 also intersected mineralized shear veins to the east of the main structure (assays pending). The relation and significance of these structures to the Galena – No.2 vein system has yet to be determined.

President & CEO, Steve Roebuck, comments:

"Our understanding of the gold vein system at Montalembert continues to advance with every hole we drill. Drill hole MDD17022 intersected visible gold at a vertical depth of approximately 110 metres below surface, our deepest intercept to date and 400 metres south of the spectacular 3,310 g/t Au over 1 metre surface channel sample reported on July 26, 2017. These results along with many others from surface work and drill core indicate that the system is productive over a substantial distance and remains open along strike and at depth. We are encouraged by the results to date and look forward to receiving assays for the next 17 holes, two of which intersected visible gold."

As previously reported, Enforcer recently engaged SRK Consulting to complete a structural analysis of the drill core and surface exposures to define the controls to gold mineralization, vein geometry, gold distribution and grade variability.  Based on SRK's preliminary study, the gold is associated with several sets of sub-parallel shear veins of predominantly dextral strike-slip movement. Significant gold mineralization primarily occurs in flexures along the shear veins where dilation occurs. The shear structures and veins have been intersected by drilling but assay results to date are lower than expected compared to surface samples. This is primarily explained by the nugget effect of the gold distribution, which is exacerbated by the narrow sampling width of drill core.

Independent geological engineer, Mr. Donald Théberge, MBA, PEng, is a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the content of this news release.

All holes presented in Table 1 were completed by HQ diamond (core) drilling. Widths are presented as down hole core lengths; true widths are unknown at this time. Sample preparation, fire assays (gravimetric finish) and metallic sieve assays were performed by Activation Laboratories Ltd. of Ancaster, Ontario, an ISO/IEC 17025 (CAN-P-1579) accredited testing laboratory.

About Enforcer Gold Corp

Enforcer Gold Corp. is earning a 100% interest in the Montalembert Gold Project from Globex Mining Enterprises Inc. (TSX: GMX, FSE: GIMN, OTCQX: GLBXF). The 7,300-hectare property is located 125 km west of Chibougamau in Quebec's prolific Abitibi greenstone belt. The property lies 5 km from a paved highway and hydro-electric power and has easy access to skilled labour, fuel, accommodation and other industry-related services, allowing for relatively low exploration costs. Enforcer has committed over $2.2M to fund its 2017 exploration program that is expected to run uninterrupted through late fall 2017.
