Nighthawk intersects 84.30 metres of 2.91 gpt gold (uncut), including 24.55 metres of 5.05 gpt gold, and 4.25 metres of 8.11 gpt gold at Colomac Zone 1.5

Nighthawk Gold Corp. is pleased to report drill results for eighteen holes (5,508 metres) recently completed at high-grade Zone 1.5, part of its 100% owned Colomac Gold Project. Sixteen of the eighteen holes intersected gold mineralization (Table 1) helping to define the zone's near surface dimensions and continuity down plunge to depth (Figure 1), highlighted by hole C18-05 which returned 84.30 metres of 2.91 grams per tonne gold ("gpt" "Au"), including 24.55 metres of 5.05 gpt Au, and 4.25 metres of 8.11 gpt Au.

HIGHLIGHTS OF DRILLING:

• Hole C18-05 intersected 84.30 metres (41.00 metre true width) of 2.91 gpt Au, including 24.55 metres of 5.05 gpt Au, and 4.25 metres of 8.11 gpt Au;

• Hole C18-08C intersected 31.20 metres (19.00 metre true width) of 1.24 gpt Au, including 10.70 metres of 2.50 gpt Au, and 5.00 metres of 4.87 gpt Au;

• Hole C18-14 intersected 45.25 metres (32.00 metre true width) of 1.36 gpt Au, including 10.25 metres of 3.30 gpt Au, and 2.25 metres of 7.37 gpt Au;

• Hole C18-13 intersected 25.25 metres (17.00 metre true width) of 1.46 gpt Au, including 13.50 metres of 2.32 gpt Au, and 3.75 metres of 3.66 gpt Au;
