(“Ridgeline” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: RDG | OTCQB: RDGMF | FRA: 0GC0) is pleased to welcome Mac Jackson as a technical advisor to the Company. Mr. Jackson is an AIPG certified professional geologist who in a distinguished 25-year career brings a proven track record of discovery to the Ridgeline team. As a senior exploration geologist at Newmont Corporation and most recently Vice President, Exploration for Gold Standard Ventures Corp., Mac led exploration teams that contributed to several multi-million-ounce Carlin-Type gold discoveries in Nevada including the Leeville (Newmont), Fiberline (Newmont) and North Dark Star (Gold Standard Ventures) deposits.

Chad Peters, Ridgeline’s President, CEO & Director commented, “we welcome Mac to our team at a pivotal time in the company’s growth. As we head into a highly anticipated drill program at our Carlin-East project in June, we will utilize Mac’s experience in the discovery of the multi-million-ounce Leeville deposit to test similar gold targets at Carlin-East, located directly on-strike of and to the north of the high-grade Leeville gold mine.”
