Gold Standard Ventures Corp. extended the North Bullion gold system 180 meters to the north at its wholly owned Railroad-Pinion gold project in Nevada's Carlin trend.

The drilling program in 2016 returned intercepts of 19.8 meters at 4.40 g/t of gold including an interval of 5.3 meters at 7.02 g/t of gold, according to a Jan. 23 release.

The company plans further drilling in 2017 to test for higher-grade extensions to gold mineralization along the favorable west-northwest-striking structural corridor.
