Marathon Announces Positive Results from Final 2018 Drilling in the Marathon Deposit and Start of 2019 Drilling Campaign, Valentine Lake Gold Camp, NL

Final 2018 Drilling Results:

Golden Predator Mining Corp. (TSX.V:GPY, OTCQX:NTGSF) (the “Company”) today announced results of the 2018 drill program in the Central Core Area at the 3 Aces Project in southeast Yukon, Canada, which was completed to test for extensions of the high grade structures outcropping in the Hearts Zone. Seven HQ diamond drill holes consistently intercepted two parallel, closely spaced gold-bearing structures along 220m of strike and 500m down dip from the Hearts discovery outcrop. This was the deepest drilling to date on the project and the structures in the Hearts Zone continue to be open in all directions along strike and at depth.

MGX Minerals Inc. (“MGX” or the “Company”) (CSE: XMG / OTCQB: MGXMF / FSE: 1MG) and engineering partner PurLucid Treatment Solutions (“PurLucid”) are pleased to report commissioning results from its commercial-scale 5m3 per hour (750 barrel per day) NFLi-5 advanced wastewater treatment system. The system is currently operating and under contract with an oilsands SAGD operator to process evaporator blowdown water (EBD).

At the request of IIROC, the Company wishes to retract and clarify certain disclosure in its January 15, 2019 news release. Specifically, the disclosure “doubling resource potential” is a violation of NI 43-101, 2.3(1)(a) – Restricted Disclosure, as “resource potential” is not a recognized term for Canadian securities legislation, nor can “resource potential” be “doubled” and is therefore misleading. All references to “resource potential” and “doubling resource potential” are retracted. The drill results disclosed in the news release should have been disclosed as exploration results and are accordingly clarified in this release.
