VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 16, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pure Gold Mining Inc. (PGM – TSX-V) (“Pure Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to report that surface drilling at the Madsen Gold Project (“Madsen”) continues to expand gold mineralization in the Wedge Deposit, reinforcing the importance of Wedge as a key component of the large high grade mineral system in place at Madsen. Surface drilling of Wedge has intersected strongly mineralized zones to a vertical depth of 500 metres and across 1,100 metres of strike length clearly establishing continuity of gold mineralization in several key areas that remain open for expansion. Importantly, this mineralization forms part of a series of genetically and geometrically related high grade zones that span a five kilometre structural corridor from Madsen to Wedge, with expansive gaps along strike and down plunge that remain highly prospective for additional resource growth.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 16, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Liberty Gold Corp. (LGD-TSX) (“Liberty Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the results from initial reverse circulation (“RC”) drill testing of the historic heap leach pads and one area of historic mine waste backfill at the Goldstrike Project, the flagship of its three principal gold projects located in the prolific Great Basin of the United States.

Results confirm that the historical leach pads, the back fill below the pad linings and bedrock to depth contain areas of gold mineralization above the cut-off grade used in the Goldstrike Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”)¹.

On July 10, 2018, Liberty Gold released a PEA for Goldstrike, confirming a low capital intensity, low operating cost, open-pit, run-of-mine, heap-leach operation, with a 7.5 year mine life and highly attractive economics, including a post-tax Net Present Value (5% discount rate) of US$129.5 million, Internal Rate of Return of 29.4%, and Initial Capex of US$113.2 million. 

To aid in further advancement and de-risking of the Goldstrike Property, drill testing of the historic heap leach pads, stockpiles, waste dumps and pit backfill is underway.  Most of the areas currently being tested lie within the PEA pit and are classified as waste in the model.  Conversion of any of these areas to mineralized leach material would potentially add low-cost ounces to the resource, consisting of gold in material previously drilled, blasted and placed on surface.
