Loflin Project 1m sample re-splits verify high-grade,

shallow intercepts of up to 10 g/t Au

Lexington Gold (AIM: LEX), the gold exploration and development company, with projects in North and South Carolina, USA, is pleased to announce receipt of the results for 1m re-splits taken from the reverse circulation ("RC") drill hole 4m composite samples across its combined Loflin and Loflin South Project. All of the holes concerned were originally sampled as 4m composites. All composites which returned a gold grade of more than 200ppb Au were then subsequently re-sampled in the field and assayed on a 1m basis. Please refer to Table 1 below for the full set of results.

Highlights :

   --    Significant intercepts recorded from the 1m samples include: 
   --      Hole LFRC-006: 34m @ 1.75 g/t Au from 21m to 55m including: 

o 17m @ 2.9 g/t Au from 21m to 38m

o 2m @ 10.09 g/t Au from 31m to 33m

   --      Hole LFRC-009: 12m @ 1.95 g/t Au from 18m to 30m including: 

o 6m @ 3.24 g/t Au from 22m to 28m

o 2m @ 5.05 g/t Au from 22m to 24m

   --      Hole LFRC-002: 23m @ 1.35 g/t Au from 16m to 39m including: 

o 5m @ 3.09 g/t Au from 31m to 36m

o 1m @ 6.13 g/t Au from 32m to 33m

   --      Hole LFRC-018: 26m @ 1.04 g/t Au from 4m to 30m including: 

o 3m @ 2.45 g/t Au from 25m to 28m

   --      Hole LFRC-003: 6m @ 1.6 g/t Au from 82m to 88m including: 

o 2m @ 2.93 g/t Au from 82m to 84m

   --      Hole LFRC-008: 14m @ 1.2 g/t Au from 14m to 28m including: 

o 4m @ 1.87 g/t Au from 19m to 23m

-- The 1m re-sampling of the 4m composites has confirmed shallow, high-grade intercepts of up to 10g/t Au

-- The 1m re-splits assay results will be incorporated into the Company's existing geological model

-- JORC Resource estimate for the combined Jones-Keystone-Loflin ("JKL") Project currently expected to be received by the end of July 2022

Bernard Olivier, Lexington Gold's CEO, commented :

"The greater detail and accuracy achieved from the 1m sampling at Loflin further highlights the success of our recent RC drill campaign and serves to confirm and support these exceptional results announced previously. The deposit exhibits significant shallow mineralisation with grades of up to 10g/t gold achieved as well as multiple Intersections of 20m+ widths at mineable grades, including 34m at an average grade of 1.75 g/t gold. These results will be incorporated into our existing geological model and database with the aim of achieving an upgrade to the current JORC Resource estimate for Loflin."

Additional drilling and assaying information for the JKL Project

The 1m re-splits assay results are in line with the previously announced 4m composite results with shallow, high-grade intercepts of up to 10g/t Au. The results will be incorporated into the Company's existing geological model to add further detail to the distribution of gold at Loflin.

All of the intersection information in Table 1 above is reported using the down-hole depth. The holes were drilled at inclined angles of approximately 60(o) and the mineralisation will therefore be at shallower depths than the down-hole depths reported in Table 1.

Note to Editors :

Lexington Gold (AIM: LEX) is focused on the exploration and development of its four diverse gold projects, covering a combined area of approximately 1,675 acres in North and South Carolina, USA. The projects are situated in the highly prospective Carolina Super Terrane ("CST"), which has seen significant historic gold production and is host to a number of multi-million-ounce mines operated by majors and was also the site of the first US gold rush in the early 1800s, before gold was discovered in California.
