Lincoln Gold Consolidates Its Pine Grove Gold Project to 100% and Finalizes Joint Venture on Oro Cruz

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 8, 2019 / Lincoln Gold Mining Inc., (TSXV:LMG) ("Lincoln" or the "Company") is very pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding letter agreement (the "Pine Grove Letter Agreement") with Goldcliff Resource Corporation ("Goldcliff") to purchase back their current earn-in joint venture interest in the Pine Grove Gold Project (the "Pine Grove Repurchase") for the consideration of USD $200,000 in cash (the "Cash Consideration") and 2,750,000 common shares of Lincoln (the "Consideration Shares"). Details of the Pine Grove Letter Agreement were announced in a news release dated August 9, 2016. This purchase will bring 100% of the Pine Grove Gold Project back into the ownership of Lincoln.

Lincoln also reports that it has finalized an Option and Joint Venture Agreement dated October 1^st, 2019 (the "JV Agreement") granting to Demerara Gold Corp. and Bell Mountain Exploration Corp. (collectively the "Optionee") an option to purchase up to an undivided 75% interest in the Oro Cruz Property (see news release March 4, 2019 regarding the entering into of a letter agreement relating to the option).

Paul Saxton comments, "Following the recent consolidation of the Company's stock, name change and resource update, these property agreements are the last part of Lincoln's restructuring plans to form a clear and focused path to bringing the Pine Grove project into production, having the Oro Cruz Optionee advance the property while retaining a significant position in it, and continuing work on expanding the Company's gold resources. Lincoln has been in the permitting process for the Pine Grove Gold Project with the US Forest Service since 2014 and is now entering the final stages of the process. Following the permitting process, pre-construction activities will begin. It is expected that it will take approximately a year to complete construction of the mine and plant facility".

Pursuant to the Pine Grove Letter Agreement, the Cash Consideration and Consideration Shares are payable to Goldcliff in accordance with the following schedule:
