HALIFAX, Aug. 8, 2019 -  GoGold Resources Inc. (TSX: GGD) ("GoGold", "the Company") reports revenue of $6.4 million on the sale of 438,740 silver equivalent ounces sold at an average realized price of $14.55.  The Corporation closed the quarter in a strong financial position with $9.0 million in cash and marketable securities and no debt.  (All amounts are in U.S. dollars).

Production in the quarter was a record 451,011 silver equivalent ounces, the second consecutive quarter that Parral has set a production record.  Parral generated EBITDA of $1,681,000 in the quarter, compared to a loss of $59,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2018.

"Parral continues to perform well, with another record production quarter completed, and we're seeing strong results thus far in July and August," stated Brad Langille, President and CEO. "Leaching on the second lift is providing strong results, which is demonstrated by production growth and the increase in EBITDA from a year ago, with strong all-in costs of $13.61 in the quarter and $14.26 for the year to date.  The SART project is on track, and once this is in operation in early 2020, we anticipate significant cost savings and cash inflows from liberated cyanide and copper that is currently in solution."

During the quarter, the Company recorded a decrease in the value of marketable securities of $2.2 million, which is the largest contribution to the net loss of $3.2 million on the quarter.    For the year to date, the Company has recorded an increase in the value of marketable securities of $2.0 million.  The value of marketable securities has increased since quarter end by 14% as of the date of this press release.

Los Ricos

The Company is carrying out a 10,000m diamond drilling program of HQ size core in conjunction with a field program of geological mapping, sampling and trenching on the property. The program has focused on testing the top 200 metres of the mineralized zone to determine the potential for surface mining.  This work includes "twinning" selected historical RC drill holes; completing new holes on 25m spaced "infill" sections; completing new deeper holes down dip beneath the historical RC drill holes; testing the strike extension of the deposit to the north of the underground workings; and stepping out 1500 metres to the south where the Company had success at initial greenfield exploration trenching.

"The drilling program at Los Ricos is providing very strong results and is intersecting substantial widths and grades of gold and silver.  The option agreement on the project has allowed the Company to more fully understand the potential of this asset," said Langille. "We see Los Ricos being a core asset and significant driver of value for GoGold."

As of June 30, 2019, the Company has spent $1.2 million on exploration and the acquisition of the option agreement of the Los Ricos project.  Currently, 44 holes totalling 5,914m of HQ size drill core have been completed, with assayed results received and reported for 26 drill holes.  The table below shows some highlights of the drill results to date, see Appendix A for the full results of GoGold's drilling to date.

Cautionary non-IFRS Measures and Additional IFRS Measures
The Company believes that investors use certain non-IFRS and additional IFRS measures as indicators to assess mining companies. They are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared with IFRS. Non-IFRS and additional IFRS measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

Additional IFRS measures that are presented on the face of the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income include "Operating income (loss)". These measures are intended to provide an indication of the Company's mine and operating performance. "Cash flow from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital" is a non-IFRS performance measure that could provide an indication of the Company's ability to generate cash flows from operations, and is calculated by adding back the change in non-cash working capital to "Net cash used in operating activities" as presented on the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows. Per ounce measures are calculated by dividing the relevant mining and processing costs and total costs by the ounces of metal sold in the period. "Cash costs per ounce" and "all-in sustaining costs per ounce" as used in this analysis are non-IFRS terms typically used by mining companies to assess the level of gross margin available to the Company by subtracting these costs from the unit price realized during the period. These non-IFRS terms are also used to assess the ability of a mining company to generate cash flow from operations. There may be some variation in the method of computation of these metrics as determined by the Company compared with other mining companies. In this context, "cash costs per ounce" reflects the cash operating costs allocated from in-process and dore inventory associated with ounces of silver and gold sold in the period. "Cash costs per ounce" may vary from one period to another due to operating efficiencies, grade of material processed and silver/gold recovery rates in the period. "All-in sustaining costs per ounce" include total cash costs, exploration, corporate and administrative, share based compensation and sustaining capital costs. For a reconciliation of non-IFRS and IFRS measures, please refer to the Management Discussion and Analysis dated August 7, 2019, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2019 as presented on SEDAR.
