Frontline Gold Announces Renewed Interest and Discussions Regarding Menderes Gold Project

17.09.2014  |  Newsfile

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - September 17, 2014) - Frontline Gold Corp. (TSXV: FGC) ("Frontline" or the "Company") would like to announce that there has been renewed interest in the Company's Menderes Gold Project, located in western Turkey. The Company is in discussions with several interested parties to monetize its interest in the Menderes Gold project. These discussions include the consideration of a joint venture arrangement, the sale of part or all of the property, or further exploration subject to financing. Frontline's Menderes project, located in Izmir province, western Turkey and the property, located only 20 km from the provincial capital of Izmir, consists of 62 km2 in a high potential epithermal gold environment. The exploration focus of Menderes is the eastern strike extension of Eldorado Gold Corp.'s Efemçukuru gold mine, which began operation in mid-2011 (see attached map 1).

On the western boundary of Frontline's Menderes Gold property, is Eldorado Gold Corp.'s ("Eldorado") 100% owned Efemçukuru gold Mine.

"Efemçukuru is an intermediate sulfidation epithermal gold deposit hosted within Upper Cretaceous phyllite and schist at the western end of the Izmir-Ankara Suture Zone in SW Turkey. During 2013, Efemcukuru mined 399,000 tonnes of ore at 8.85 g/t gold and treated 414,000 tonnes of ore and recovered 109,000 ounces of gold in concentrate and gravity doré. Cash costs for 2013 were $580 per ounce."

A description of the ongoing drilling on the Kokarpinar vein and summary of the significant assay results from Eldorados' the drill program on the Kokarpinar vein was included in the press release (Titled "Exploration Update" - September 5. 2012, www.eldoradogold.com) which is summarized in the paragraph below and table below.

At Efemcukuru, drilling is ongoing on the Kokarpinar vein and on the open down-dip extension on the South Ore Shoot (Kestane Beleni vein). New high grade intercepts from the South Ore Shoot demonstrate that the shoot remains open down dip, similar to the Middle and North Ore Shoots. At Kokarpinar, high grade intercepts are clustered in three different zones and occur both within the principal vein and in bordering stockwork vein systems (see Eldorado Gold Map, attachment 2 – Titled Efemcukuru – Turkey – High Grade Vein Intersections, source page 24 – March 2013 Investor Presentation, www.eldoradogold.com)

Menderes Gold Project Exploration Program

The primary objective of these discussions is to explore strategic objectives for further advancement of the project. While terms and structure of a deal have yet to been agreed upon, Frontline believes the prospect of moving this project forward is a positive development for the Company.

At present time, there can be no assurance that any transaction will arise or will be completed.

Commentary

"We believe the opportunity to establish a deal on the Menderes project is an excellent strategy to continue to advance the near term prospects of this project, which continues to have excellent exploration potential as demonstrated by Eldorado's recent announcements of its successful exploration drilling at its Efemcukuru Gold Mine adjacent to the Menderes property" said President and CEO, Walter Henry. "Our technical team continues to believe that the exploration drilling completed to date by Eldorado on its Kokarpinar vein structure, immediately to the west of our property, indicates the potential of the Frontline's Menderes project to host a significant epithermal gold environment."
