Brings Extensive Technical Expertise for Integrated Project Mine Plan - VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Aug. 30, 2017) - Corvus Gold Inc. ("Corvus" or the "Company") (TSX:KOR)(OTCQX:CORVF) is pleased to announce it has added Ron Largent as special advisor. Mr. Largent recently retired as Chief Operating Officer - International, for AngloGold Ashanti Limited where he oversaw all world-wide mining operations and development projects. Mr. Largent will help in the development of the integrated North Bullfrog - Mother Lode mine plan and assist the Corvus technical team as it works towards an optimized production plan. 

Jeff Pontius, President and CEO of Corvus said, "The addition of Ron to the Corvus team is a significant move forward for our project and our Company. Ron has had an impressive 30 year career in the mining industry, successfully developing and operating some of the largest mining projects in the world. He brings a unique producer perspective to Corvus which will supplement how we approach the integrated North Bullfrog - Mother Lode mine plan. I have had the good fortune to have worked with Ron in the past on other projects and his vision and innovation will greatly benefit Corvus and our shareholders in the coming months."

Ron Largent, Special Advisor to Corvus said, "I have followed the Corvus story closely for several years and with my retirement, it was the perfect time to get involved with the Company. The addition of the Mother Lode project was an important step for Corvus with potential to bring the combined project areas to critical mass and outline what could be a new Nevada gold mine. Jeff and his team have done a great job of positioning the project and the Company to move to that next step in the value curve and I am excited to be a part of it going forward."
