Paramount Gold Nevada Acquires Promising High Grade Gold Prospect Near Its Grassy Mountain Project in Eastern Oregon

14.11.2018  |  GlobeNewswire
  • HISTORICAL DRILLING INCLUDES INTERCEPTS OF UP TO 20 G/T GOLD NEAR SURFACE
  • FROST PROJECT 12 MILES FROM GRASSY MOUNTAIN, HAS SIMILAR GEOLOGICAL SIGNATURES

WINNEMUCCA, Nov. 14, 2018 - Paramount Gold Nevada Corp. (NYSE American: PZG) (“Paramount”) today announced that it has entered into an agreement with Nevada Select Royalty (“Nevada Select”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Ely Gold Royalties Inc. (TSX-v: ELY) (OTCQB: ELYGF) (“Ely Gold”), to purchase a 100% interest in the Frost Project (“Frost”), which totals approximately 900 acres and is located approximately 12 miles west of its 100%-own Grassy Mountain Project.

Paramount CEO, Glen Van Treek, commented: “The Frost gold occurrence is in a favourable geological setting which is strikingly similar to the Grassy Mountain Deposit and located within trucking distance to our proposed mine and mill operation. We are very encouraged by the historical drill intercepts at Frost, although it has not been systematically explored. We believe that there is excellent potential to find a deposit similar to Grassy Mountain using the expertise we have developed in the area and at other epithermal deposits.”

The historical drilling conducted in 1989 through 1990 intersected very promising gold intercepts including 1.5 meters grading 20 g/T gold at a relatively shallow depth (between 18 to 93 meters). A few other examples of these historical intercepts are: 4.6 meters grading 14.5 g/T Au; 4.6 meters grading 8.0 g/T Au; and 7.6 meters grading 1.2 g/T Au.

Additionally, as part of its due diligence process, Paramount extended the Grassy Mountain helicopter magnetic and radiometric surveys over the entire Frost Project (See October 2, 2018 news release).

“Data from the recently completed magnetic survey reveals a large magnetic low. This suggests the existence of a favourable structural corridor which could have transported precious metal-bearing fluids. The historic drill holes yielding high grade gold intercepts correlate with this magnetic low and represent an excellent drill target that we expect to include in our 2019 exploration program. If an economic deposit is found at Frost, we expect to truck the ore to the proposed Grassy Mountain Mill for processing”, Van Treek added. “We see this as a potentially low-cost option to increase the life of the proposed Grassy Mountain mine.”

Transaction Highlights:

  • Paramount has the right to acquire a 100% interest in the Frost claims for total consideration of $250,000 payable to Nevada Select as follows:
    • $10,000 on closing;
    • $15,000 upon the receipt of the drilling permit (the “Permit Date”) from the State;
    • $25,000 one year following the Permit Date;
    • $50,000 due on each of the second and third years following the Permit Date; and
    • A final payment of $100,000 four years following the Permit Date.
  • Nevada Select will retain a 2% Net Smelter Royalty (“NSR”) on the Frost Claims
  • Paramount has the right to reduce the NSR to 1% for a payment of $1 million.

About Paramount Gold Nevada Corp.
Paramount Gold Nevada is a U.S. based precious metals exploration and development company. Paramount’s strategy is to create shareholder value through exploring and developing its mineral properties and to realize this value for its shareholders in three ways: by selling its assets to established producers; entering into joint ventures with producers for construction and operation; or constructing and operating mines for its own account.

Paramount owns 100% of the Grassy Mountain Gold Project which consists of approximately 9,300 acres located on private and BLM land in Malheur County, Oregon. The Grassy Mountain Gold Project contains a gold-silver deposit (100% located on private land) for which results of a positive PFS have been released and key permitting milestones accomplished (see press release dated May 24, 2018). Additionally, Paramount owns a 100% interest in the Sleeper Gold Project located in Northern Nevada. The Sleeper Gold Project, which includes the former producing Sleeper mine, totals 2,322 unpatented mining claims (approximately 60 square miles or 15,500 hectares).
