Note: All numbers rounded.
(1) EME defines diamond core holes drilled by Orbit Garant Drilling Inc.
EMD defines diamond core holes drilled in-house.
(2) True widths are 80 to 100% of drilled widths.
(3) Cutoff grade of 0.3 gpt Au.
All sample preparation and geochemical analyses were completed by Actlabs Guyana Inc. in Georgetown, Guyana.
Holes EMD19-089, 90, 91 and 92, have been drilled between Salbora and Toucan testing possible mineralization at lithological contacts. These holes are pending assays, which will be reported when received and compiled. Holes EMD19-080, 85 and 87, showed weak gold mineralization with results below the Company's cut off grade of 0.3 gpt Au.
Additionally, further drill results in the Apollo target returned;
- EM19-074 at 1.5 metres grading 0.77 gpt Au; and
- EM19-075 at 4.5 metres grading 0.62 gpt Au.
No further drilling is currently planned for the Apollo area.
Geologically, the gold mineralized host rock is primarily a fine to medium grained volcano-sediment and mafic volcanic units. The lithologic units are trending along a 140° strike and near vertical. The mineralization at Salbora is associated with silicification, silica flooding and sulphides, mainly pyrite, along structures striking 170° degrees and near vertical (see attached Figures). The intersection of the 170° and a series of 070° structures may be conduits for high-grade mineralization near intrusions of monzonite (early) and dolerite (late). The contacts between monzonite and volcano-sedimentary package are mineralized within both units at Salbora. There are multiple fluid phases, several of which may be gold bearing. In addition, there is an association of small granitic and felsic intrusions with mineralization, possibly along the 170° trending structures.
In late 2019 and Q1 2020, the Company plans to further drill the northern portion of Salbora (near surface and depth) to better define the mineralized footprint, drill-test three geophysical anomalies to the south, further develop an interpretation of favourable structural controls with gold mineralization, and expand the geophysical program to identify new targets. The Company is expanding its currently announced diamond core drill program and expects to drill an additional 5,000 to 6,000 metres in late 2019 and Q1 2020.
The expanded ground geophysical survey includes an additional 62 line-kilometres of gradient array Induced Polarization ("IP"), 62 line-km of high-resolution ground magnetic survey and 10 line-km of Pole-Dipole ("PDP") detailing IP survey over selected targets. The total ground geophysical coverage has therefore been expanded to an area of approximately 7.5 square kilometres (see attached Figures).
As of October 18, 2019, the Eagle Mountain Prospecting Licence ("EMPL") has been renewed by Guyana Geology and Mines Commission ("GGMC") for another 3 year period with the typical conditions required for maintaining concessions. The EMPL covers an area of 4,784 hectares.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT AND FORWARD-LOOKING DISCLAIMER
This news release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation. Such forward-looking statements concern Goldsource's strategic plans, timing and expectations for the Company's exploration and drilling programs at Eagle Mountain; and information regarding high grade areas projected from sampling results and drilling results. Such forward-looking statements or information are based on a number of assumptions, which may prove to be incorrect. Assumptions have been made regarding, among other things: conditions in general economic and financial markets; accuracy of assay results and availability of mining equipment; availability of skilled labour; timing and amount of capital expenditures; performance of available laboratory and other related services; and future operating costs. The actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of the risk factors including: the timing and content of work programs; results of exploration activities and development of mineral properties; the interpretation of drilling results and other geological data; the uncertainties of resource estimations; receipt, maintenance and security of permits and mineral property titles; environmental and other regulatory risks; project costs overruns or unanticipated costs and expenses; availability of funds and general market and industry conditions. Forward-looking statements are based on the expectations and opinions of the Company's management on the date the statements are made. The assumptions used in the preparation of such statements, although considered reasonable at the time of preparation, may prove to be imprecise and, as such, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statements were made.
