Montreal, January 28, 2014 - Algold Resources Ltd. (TSXV:ALG) (the "Corporation" or "Algold"), formerly Kanosak Capital Venture Corporation, announces that it has completed the acquisition of the mining properties, previously disclosed, in Burkina Faso, Africa.

As disclosed on April 3, 2013, Algold entered into a definitive share purchase agreement (the "Agreement") to acquire 100% of LMZ GOLD Burkina SARL ("LMZ") a subsidiary of Pan African Oil Ltd.

Under the terms of the Agreement, Algold has acquired all of the shares of LMZ, resulting in Algold indirectly owning 100% of the exploration and mining rights for the three LMZ properties in Burkina Faso, known as the Gabou, Dianvour and Ouaraba properties (the "Properties"). A subsequent press release on May 24, 2013 provided additional technical and other information regarding the Properties.

As consideration for the Properties, Algold has issued 2,000,000 common shares. Under the Agreement, the Corporation has agreed to issue a second tranche of 3,000,000 common shares upon the release of a mineral resource estimate of at least 1,000,000 ounces of gold on the Properties and a third tranche of 3,000,000 common shares upon the preparation of a bankable feasibility study on the Properties, for a total potential payment of 8,000,000 common shares.
