MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Oct 24, 2013) - TomaGold Corp. (TSX VENTURE: LOT) ("TomaGold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an option and joint-venture agreement to acquire a 70% interest in each of the Fancamp and Embry properties from Murgor Resources Inc. ("Murgor"), following the fulfillment of the conditions shown in the following chart, over a three-year period:

The Company must issue an additional 250,000 common shares of the Company (the "Common Shares") for each tranche of 250,000 proven ounces of gold in a 43-101 resource estimate, up to a maximum of 1,000,000 Common Shares for both properties collectively.

The Fancamp property consists of 43 claims covering 1,710 hectares, and the Embry property consists of 52 claims covering 2,895 hectares. The Fancamp property is adjacent to the eastern edge of the Monster Lake, Cookie Monster and Little Monster properties in the Fancamp deformation corridor, and the Embry property lies 8 km northeast of the Monster Lake property, in the same gold corridor.
