Newlox Marks Eight Consecutive Months of Gold Recovery

Vancouver, BC, February 24, 2020 – Newlox Gold Ventures Corp. (“Newlox” or the “Company”) (CSE: LUX | Frankfurt: NGO) is pleased to mark the eighth consecutive month of gold recovery at the Company’s first environmental remediation and precious metals production facility in Central America.

Gold dore bars have been poured for eight months at Newlox’s project.

Since the commencement of commercial operations in June of 2019, Newlox has been recovering and selling precious metals while installing upgrades to the plant to increase productivity and efficiency. Having completed enhancements at the processing plant in late 2019, the focus is now on increasing daily throughput and, by consequence, revenues from recovered gold.

The Company’s in-house atomic absorption and fire assay analytical laboratory have been running continuously over the past eight months, testing artisanal tailings stockpiles and ensuring operational process control. This testing has allowed the Newlox team to manage operations and prioritize feedstock based on precious metals content. The Company has established an inventory of high-grade feedstock to support the planned increase in throughput.

The Company looks forward to continuing and expanding its successful environmental remediation and gold recovery program.
