ABOUT GOLD STANDARD VENTURES - Gold Standard is an advanced stage gold exploration company focused on district scale d

--->Company's premier land package on the Carlin Trend. The Pinion deposit now has an NI43-101 compliant resource estimate
---> consisting of an Indicated Mineral Resource of 31.61 million tonnes grading 0.62 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au), tot
--->aling 630,300 ounces of gold and an Inferred Resource of 61.08 million tonnes grading 0.55 g/t Au, totaling 1,081,300 
--->ounces of gold, using a cut-off grade of 0..14 g/t Au (announced March 15, 2016).  The Dark Star deposit, 2.1 km to th

CAUTIONARY NOTE FOR U.S. INVESTORS REGARDING RESERVE AND RESOURCE ESTIMATES
All resource estimates reported by the Company were calculated in accordance with the Canadian National Instrument 43-
--->101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy Classification system. These standards differ significantly fr
--->om the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for descriptions of mineral properties in SEC Indus
--->try Guide 7 under Regulation S-K of the U. S. Securities Act of 1933. In particular, under U. S. standards, mineral re
--->sources may not be classified as a "reserve" unless the determination has been made that mineralization could be econo
--->mically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. Accordingly, information in t
--->his press release containing descriptions of the Company's mineral properties may not be comparable to similar informa
--->tion made public by US public reporting companies.
