Newlox Gold Procures Reagents & Continues Operational Ramp-Up

Vancouver, BC, 31 March 2022 – Newlox Gold Ventures Corp. (“Newlox” or the “Company”) (CSE: LUX | Frankfurt/Stuttgart: NGO | PINK: NWLXF) is pleased to announce it has received a long-awaited shipment of flotation reagents which will facilitate the increase of throughput at the Company’s first ESG-focused precious metals recovery and artisanal tailings remediation facility.

The Plant 1 initiative is being led by Wilmer Ñiquen, VP of Operations, who brings with him over 24 years of experience as a metallurgical engineer. Wilmer and his team reviewed the operational performance of Plant 1 and identified necessary improvements required to maintain high precious metals recovery through completion of the ramp-up to full-scale. A comprehensive laboratory investigation triggered a combination of changes to the processing circuit and an enhanced reagent cocktail to increase throughput while maintaining optimum efficiency.

The delivery of the reagents will allow the ramp-up of operations at Plant 1 to enter its next stage as Newlox Gold’s operations team continues to implement the ramp-up of operations with the goal of quickly surpassing 50 tonnes per day while maintaining high efficiency. The operations team’s ultimate goal is to achieve a throughput rate of 80 tonnes per day of artisanal tailings feedstock with a cut-off grade of 9 grams per tonne gold.

Newlox Gold is making steady progress in all its initiatives and remains well funded to complete Project 1 and the Boston expansion. Management will continue to update the market as it achieves milestones towards its goal of becoming the first ESG focused medium-sized gold producer.
