Jones-Keystone Project Update

Lexington Gold Ltd

("Lexington Gold" or the "Company")

Jones-Keystone Project 1m sample re-splits verify high-grade,

shallow intercepts of up to 7.5 g/t Au

Β 

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.

Β 

Highlights:

Β· Significant intercepts recorded from the 1m samples include:

Β 

Β· 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

Β 

Β· 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

Β 

Β· 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

Β 

Β· The 1m re-sampling of the 4m composites has confirmed shallow, high-grade intercepts of up to approximately 7.5g/t Au

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

Β· 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

Β 

Β· The Jones-Keystone deposit remains open along strike and down dip

Β 

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."

Β 

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 50o 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.
