Tonogold Resources Inc. Progress Update Announcement October 2020

07.10.2020  |  Accesswire

LA JOLLA, October 7, 2020 - Tonogold Resources, Inc. (OTC PINK:TNGL) ("Tonogold" or the "Company") advises of the following.

Preference Share redemption

As part of the consideration of Tonogold's acquisition of Comstock Mining Inc.'s mining and exploration assets in Storey County, Nevada, Tonogold issued CMI $6.1 million redeemable convertible preference shares ("Pref Shares").

The terms of the Pref Shares provided CMI the right to convert some or all of the Pref Share into Common Shares in Tonogold at a conversion price of 18 cents per share and provided Tonogold the right to redeem the Pref Shares (not previously converted) at a 20% premium over the face value remaining.

In May 2020 and September 2020, CMI elected to convert a total of $3.92 million of the Pref Shares into 21,777,778 Common Shares in Tonogold, leaving $2.18 million of Pref shares remaining (that would have required a further 12.1 million Common Shares to be issued in the event that CMI elected to covert).

A group of Australian investors recently agreed to subscribe for up to $2.5 million in Tonogold Common shares at a subscription price of 35 cents per share requiring 7 million new shares to be issued. The proceeds from this issue have been used to redeem the remaining Pref Shares from CMI (including the 20% premium).

This transaction has eliminated the Pref Shares with around 5 million fewer shares being issued than previously expected - a favorable dilution impact for all shareholders.

The 7 million new shares issued will have the requisition 12-month trading restriction imposed pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. No warrants or similar instrument is required to be issued as part of this 35-cent share placement.

As a result of the conversions and new shares issues discussed above, Tonogold currently has 309 million Common Shares on issue.

Drilling Update

On Sept. 8, 2020, Tonogold advised that it had commenced a $7 million drill program focused on the historically significant Comstock Lode located in Storey County, Nevada.

The first hole of the program ("TC001D") has been completed at the South Overman site using a core rig. Assays for the hole are currently pending. The hole was drilled vertically (-90 degrees) and encountered the Comstock structure (host of mineralization in the area) from approximately 149 meters (489 feet) to 206 meters (675 feet) down the hole. This represents a true-thickness of approximately 42 meters (138 feet). Within this structure, two zones of moderate to strong quartz veining were identified with a true thickness estimated to be 9 and 2 meters respectively.

Significant brecciation and fracturing was encountered in the core hole, both within the quartz vein zones and in the surrounding rock. Although this is encouraging as historic reports commonly document a direct correlation between mineralization and strong fracturing, these zones of quartz veining may not contain precious metal mineralization and caution is recommended until assay results are received.

An illustrated cross section is provided below.

Importantly, in terms of "Proof of Concept," the first hole intersected Comstock Lode within 1-foot of that anticipated by the geological model developed and at 42-meter true width, was ~5 meters wider.

The core rig has commenced the second hole which is targeting the deeper East Yellow Jacket area of the Comstock Lode. The hole is currently at approximately 275 meters (900 feet) with the target zone projected at 562 meters (1,845 feet) down hole.

An RC rig arrived on site yesterday and is being prepared to commence drilling today.
