Atlanta Gold defines flow sheet for bulk sample process program

/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES/

TORONTO, June 10, 2014 /CNW/ - Atlanta Gold Inc. (TSXV: ATG; OTCQX: ATLDF) (the "Company") today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Atlanta Gold Corporation is committing to the acquisition of the gold processing equipment as outlined on the following flow-sheet. With completion of road maintenance in June of 2014 enabling a safer access to the Atlanta exploration trench, a contractor will excavate and crush a bulk sample to -50 mesh and stockpile the sample for processing by the Company.

The results of the bulk sample testing will determine the ultimate design of the future process plant and recovery.

1. The gold mineralized material will be mined and crushed to -50 mesh by a contractor and delivered to a feed bin at Atlanta Gold's process facility.
2. The crushed material will be slurried and then fed to a Falcon SB centrifugal concentrator. Bench scale testing by Inspectorate Laboratories and Met-Solve Laboratories, both in Vancouver, B.C., show that recoveries greater than 42.5% of the total gold can be expected from the Falcon. This concentrate contains most of the free gold that will be shipped to a refinery.
3. The tailings from the Falcon will be fed to a set of M-10 gravity tables developed by American Mining Services in Sandy, Oregon. They will produce a middlings concentrate that will contain mostly refractory sulphide mineralization.
4. The tailings from the M-10 tables will be fed to a set of M-7 gravity tables for final clean concentrate recovery. The concentrate from the M-10 and M-7 tables will contain oxide and refractory mineralization that will be sent out of state for roaster or autoclave processing.
5. Both the M-10 and M-7 gravity tables use only water in a closed circuit system, and gravity as a separation medium. Bench scale testing has shown that up to 40.3% of the total gold can be captured from these tables.
6. The total gold recovered from both the Falcon and the M-10 and M-7 gravity separation was 82.8%. From an assumed 800 ton per day feed, it is expected to produce 49.9 ounces of gold per day. The total mass concentration rate was 50:1.
7. Free gold will be shipped directly to a refinery while the remaining arsenic bearing refractory concentrate will be shipped out of Idaho for processing.
8. The next phase of testing will be to use this flow sheet to process a large bulk sample.
