Integra Gold Donates Proceeds of Gold Rush Challenge Finale Event, Over $260,000 to Local Charities in Val-d´Or

10.08.2016  |  Marketwired
VANCOUVER, August 10, 2016 - Integra Gold Corp. ("Integra" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: ICG) (OTCQX: ICGQF) is pleased to announce it has presented over $260,000 to a number of local Val-d'Or and Abitibi-Témiscamingue based charitable and non-profit organizations.

"The town of Val-d'Or was built after the discovery of gold here in the early 20th century," comments Val-d'Or Mayor, Mr. Pierre Corbeil. "Most importantly, Integra understands that the heartbeat of a town is not provided by any metal, but rather by the people that call it home. This donation and the commitment it displays to the people of Val-d'Or is a significant step for Integra Gold. It is clear that Integra's community engagement has been a focus of the Company from the beginning, and we applaud them for taking their role as responsible corporate citizens seriously."

Integra raised funds through table sales and corporate sponsorships at its Gold Rush Challenge "Shark-Tank" style live finale event hosted in March 2016. The finale marked the culmination of Integra's $1 million crowd sourced competition, which saw experts from around the globe evaluate historic data to come up with high quality exploration targets using leading edge exploration-targeting technology. Several of the targets generated are scheduled to be drill tested this quarter. Of the funds raised at the live finale, A$100,000 was generously matched by the Macquarie Group Foundation.

First Annual Integra Gold Fête d'Été

On August 3, 2016 at the Cité de l'Or museum grounds, the historic site of Val-d'Or's Lamaque Mine, Integra Gold and its key contractors hosted a company expo and barbeque with over 500 members of the Val-d'Or community in attendance. Local partners and contractors, including Forage Orbit Garant, Atlas Copco, Fournier et Fils Inc., SGS Geostat, and Promec Mining joined Integra staff in a public exposition where members of the community were given the chance to review the Lamaque project's progress to date, enjoy a guided bus tour of the property, and discuss firsthand the Company's plans for the future and the positive impact they will have on the community with both management and the Board of Directors.
