Jones-Keystone Project 1m sample re-splits verify
high-grade,
shallow intercepts of up to 7.5 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 the results for the 1m re-splits taken from the reverse
circulation ("RC") drill hole 4m composite samples across its
Jones-Keystone 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 JKRC-002: 50m @ 1.09 g/t Au from 72m to 122m including:
o 27m @ 1.52 g/t Au from 72m to 99m
o 9m @ 2.71 g/t Au from 90m to 99m
o 1m @ 5.77 g/t Au from 93m to 94m
-- Hole JKRC-003: 28m @ 1.15 g/t Au from 66m to 94m including:
o 6m @ 2.67 g/t Au from 66m to 72m
o 1m @ 5.17 g/t Au from 67m to 68m
-- Hole JKRC-004: 31m @ 1.38 g/t Au from 28m to 59m including:
o 16m @ 2.15 g/t Au from 28m to 44m
o 1m @ 7.52 g/t Au from 32m to 33m
-- The 1m re-sampling of the 4m composites has confirmed shallow, high-grade intercepts of up to approximately 7.5g/t Au
-- The 1m re-splits assay results will now be incorporated into
the Company's existing geological model
-- The results will facilitate the establishment of an
independent maiden JORC Resource estimate for Jones-Keystone which
will be added to the existing JORC Resource for Loflin, to form a
combined JORC Resource for the JKL Project
-- The Jones-Keystone deposit remains open along strike and down dip
Bernard Olivier, Lexington Gold's CEO, commented :
"The 1m re-splits assay results for Jones-Keystone confirm and
expand upon the exceptional results announced previously. The
deposit exhibits significant shallow mineralisation with grades of
up to approximately 7.5g/t gold achieved as well as multiple
intersections of 20m+ widths at mineable grades, including 27m at
an average grade of 1.52 g/t gold. The Directors believe these
results will faclitate the establishment of a significant maiden
JORC Resource estimate for Jones-Keystone of potentially up to
100,000 ounces, which will serve to significantly increase the
existing JORC Resource estimate for our overall combined JKL
Project."
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 approximately 7.5g/t Au. The results will be incorporated
into the Company's existing geological model to add further detail
to the distribution of gold at Jones-Keystone.

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 50(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. It was also the site of the first US gold rush
in the early 1800s, before gold was discovered in California.
