Viva Gold Corp. announced assay results for the first four drill holes in its 2018-2019 winter reverse circulation drill program at its Tonopah Gold Project located near Tonopah, Nevada. TG 1816: 4.6 meters from 108.2 to 112.2 meters depth at 6.05 grams/tonne (‘g/t’) including 1.5 meters at 16.4 g/t. TG 1816 was drilled between the Discovery and 121 structural zones in an undrilled gap between the zones. TG 1817:45.7 meters from 143.3 to 189 meters depth at 2.2 g/t including 13.7 meters at 5.1 g/t. TG1817 was drilled as a western extension of the 121 structural zone. TG 1818: 12.2 meters from 21.3 to 33.5 meters depth at 0.9 g/t and 3.0 meters from 71.6 to 74.7 meters depth at 46.1 g/t, including 1.5 meters at 84.9 g/t. TG1818 was drilled to the east across the south extension of the Discovery fault, further extending the known strike of that structure. TG 1819:18.6 meters intercepted mineralization between 53.3 meters and 100.6 meters depth in three zones at an average grade of 0.8 g/t including 3 meters at 1.9 g/t. TG1819 was drilled at the north end of a gap between the Dauntless zone and the 63-77 zone. Viva has now completed 8 drill-holes in its current RC drill program. Samples for the remaining four holes have been submitted for assaying.
