TAKU REPORTS RESULTS OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

All resolutions proposed at Taku Gold Corp.'s annual general meeting held on Wednesday, Aug. 16, 2017, were duly passed, including the election of a six-member board of directors consisting of Zak Dingsdale, Steve Smith, Mark Fekete, Patricia Wilson, Dennis Fentie and Janet Lee-Sheriff.

Each of Mr. Fentie and Ms. Lee-Sheriff is a new member to the company's board of directors. The company's outgoing director, M. Bilal Bhamji, will remain as the company's chief financial officer.

Dennis Fentie

Mr. Fentie served as the Premier of Yukon from 2002 to 2011, having first entered politics in 1996 as the MLA (member of the Legislative Assembly) for Watson Lake. He represented both the Yukon Party and the New Democratic Party during his tenure. As premier, he also served as Minister of Finance, minister responsible for devolution, land claims and Yukon Energy Corp., and as the Minister of Environment. Mr. Fentie's priorities included rebuilding the Yukon economy, formalizing relations with first nations and revitalizing the mining industry. During his tenure, the unemployment rate in Yukon declined from 9.8 per cent to approximately 4 per cent, annual mineral exploration expenditures grew from $7-million in 2002 to over $300-million in 2011, and the value of mineral production grew 264 per cent. Mr. Fentie also serves as a director of Golden Predator Mining Corp. and currently is a private businessman residing in Watson Lake, Yukon.

Janet Lee-Sheriff

Ms. Lee-Sheriff presently serves as the chief executive officer of Golden Predator Mining and brings 25 years of public, government and private sector experience, having served in senior officer-level positions with several public companies. Previously, Ms. Lee-Sheriff managed cabinet policy and intergovernmental affairs for the Conservative, Liberal and NDP governments of Yukon, developed the Yukon economic forums, and delivered gold conferences for GATA (Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee) in Dawson City, Yukon; Washington, D.C.; and London, England. She founded the Yukon Mines Legacy Foundation and the Yukon Gold Mining Alliance. Ms. Lee-Sheriff has a long history of pro-actively working with Yukon first nations.
