Vancouver, BC, July 8, 2016 – Newlox Gold Ventures Corp. (“Newlox” or the “Company”) (CSE: LUX) announces a retirement from its Board of Directors. 

As of July 8, 2016, Mr. James Miller-Tait is retiring from the Board of Directors of Newlox Gold Ventures Corp. At this time, Mr. Miller-Tait’s duties at his primary occupation as an exploration geologist take him to remote exploration sites without internet or adequate telecommunications for extended periods. Due to these time and logistical constraints, Mr. Miller-Tait expressed concern regarding his ability to adequately review the Company’s disclosures and resolutions. 

Mr. Miller-Tait has made himself available for the Company despite his commitments as an active exploration geologist which take him all over the world. The Company would like to thank Mr. Miller-Tait for his strong support and years of service to Newlox. 

Newlox Gold Ventures Corp.
Newlox Gold Ventures Corp. is an environmental remediation company recovering contaminants and residual precious metals from historical waste left behind over more than a century of inefficient artisanal and small-scale mining in Latin America. The Company is not exploring or mining and does not own any concessions. This approach eliminates the conventional, time and capital intensive, process of exploration and mining. 

Newlox collaborates with the Norman B. Keevil Institute of Mining Engineering at the University of British Columbia to develop systems which are perfectly suited to process artisanal tailings material while requiring minimal capital investment and delivering an expedited path to commercial operation. 

This approach eliminates the conventional, time and capital intensive, processes that encumber traditional metals producing companies and puts Newlox on the fast-track to success. Not only does Newlox bypass the lengthy exploration stage but, by focusing on artisanal tailings, eliminates the mining, crushing, and majority of grinding steps which represent the most expensive parts of a typical precious metals operation. 

With the R&D complete and the Company’s first processing plant constructed, Newlox is poised to achieve highly satisfactory operations in the near term. Once the first plant achieves steady state operation, measured expansion in other prospective, targeted locations in Columbia and Nicaragua will follow. 

Newlox announced its intention to acquire the assets of Cordillera Gold Ltd. (“Cordillera”) on April 12, 2016. Cordillera, engages in the acquisition, exploration, and development of gold mineral resource properties in Colombia. Cordillera has rights to certain mineral concessions, access to historical artisanal tailings and toll milling opportunities in the Antioquia Batholith region of Colombia. 

The acquisition of two valuable mining leases in Colombia will allow Newlox’s reclamation processing system to be deployed rapidly in a new market. Active and significant historical artisanal mining in the area is expected to support Newlox’s tailor-made processing system. 

In addition, the company will benefit from the acquisition of two valuable mining leases in Colombia as part of its imminent expansion. These properties benefit from the area play surrounding Gran Colombia’s Frontino project, one of the premier mining projects in the country, and should allow Newlox to farm out the traditional mining and exploration rights in exchange for royalties. 

On Behalf of the Board, Newlox Gold Ventures Corp.
