Shares Outstanding: 171,376,481

HALIFAX, Jan. 11, 2018 /CNW/ - GoGold Resources Inc. (TSX: GGD) ("GoGold", "the Company") announces production for the quarter ended December 31, 2017 of 261,693 ounces of silver and 1,708 ounces of gold for 392,406 silver equivalent ounces at the Parral project, an 11% increase from the prior quarter. This past quarter has been the fifth consecutive quarter of production growth as the initiatives put in place in previous quarters continue to gain traction.

Over the past eighteen months the Company has focused on improving recovery times by making several changes to the process at Parral. Some of these process improvements include:

1. Reduced stacking height to 5 meter high lifts from the 10 meter high lifts in previous years. This will result in multiple lifts going forward;
2. Improved permeability and stability in the material by adding more cement to the agglomerated material and increased curing time;
3. Fine tuned the cyanide strength at various times during the leaching cycle; and
4. Increased capacity of the Merrill Crowe.

SART:

In addition to the above noted items, during the most recent quarter construction was completed on the SART (sulfidization, acidification, recycling, and thickening) plant at Parrall which will reduce cyanide consumption and generate a saleable copper sulfide product.  The plant is being commissioned now and is expected to contribute cost savings and copper production in the current quarter.

On Site Lab Improvements:

During the quarter, the Company has improved and expanded its on-site lab to better assay and report production numbers from the site and how they compare to the ultimate sold ounces.  In the 2017 GoGold fiscal year, the site reported production number compared to the final ounces sold, was overstated by 3.7%, or 42,000 ounces.  With the improvements to our lab processes at Parral made this quarter, the variance should be = +/-1%.  The Company has budgeted $200,000 for further improvement and expansion of its on-site lab in the 2018 fiscal year.  This expansion will allow the Company to conduct column leach testing and additional fire assay tests.  This lab expansion better positions the company for project evaluation, including additional tailings deposits.
