NEWS RELEASE

Dawson Gold Reassures Safety of Smoke NV Products
Vancouver, British Columbia, February 4, 2016: Dawson Gold Corp. (TSX.V: DYU) (“Dawson Gold”) is
aware of a recent incident in Calgary regarding an unrelated brand of e-cigarette. As previously
announced, Dawson is in the process of acquiring Smoke NV (www.smokenv.com), an electronic
cigarette and vaping products company. We would like to assure customers and our investors that Smoke
NV products meet the highest safety standards in the industry.
While the recent incident did NOT involve a Smoke NV product, we want to take this opportunity to offer
our position on what may become a larger issue. Smoke NV supports an informed and educated
regulation of the electronic cigarette industry to ensure consumers are using safe products.
In December of 2015 as part of our due diligence on Smoke NV, Dawson representatives travelled to
Shenzhen, China to meet with Smoke NV’s factory partners and to tour the manufacturing floor and
testing facilities to ensure Smoke NV products are being made in accordance with the leading industry
standards for safety. Smoke NV uses only Lithium Ion Batteries with a UN 38.3 certification. This
means the batteries meet the same high-quality safety and regulatory standards as batteries used in cell
phones and laptops. All Smoke NV chargers are CSA and CUL certified to meet Canadian safety
standards. We encourage regulation to ensure that all electronic cigarettes and tank systems comply with
the high product and safety standards that Smoke NV requires of its products.
We encourage vendors and retailers to only sell brands that are manufactured with UN 38.3 certified
Lithium Ion Batteries and CSA and CUL certified components. We also encourage consumers to ensure
that they look for these certifications when deciding on which electronic cigarette to purchase. Even
though other devices may appear similar, they may not have the same safety standards. It is not
recommended for consumers to modify electronic cigarettes as that may cause safety issues. It is also not
recommended that consumers mix Smoke NV products with other brands. Smoke NV can only guarantee
its products, not other companies’ products.
Smoke NV is dedicated to manufacturing and distributing safe alternatives to current tobacco products.
Please feel free to contact us should you have any further questions or concerns.
Regards,
The Smoke NV Team
