Kaminak Reports Infill Drill Results from the Supremo Deposit, Coffee Gold Project

Highlights Include: 12.95 g/t Au over 9.14m, 9.22 g/t Au over 11m and 6.41g/t Au over 15m

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Feb 5, 2015) - Kaminak Gold Corporation (TSX VENTURE:KAM) today announced final results for the 2014 infill drilling at Coffee, Kaminak's flagship development track gold project located 130 km south of Dawson City, Yukon. A Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) completed for Coffee in 2014 defined a robust, high-margin, 11-year open-pit mining opportunity at a US$1250/oz gold price; the project is currently at the feasibility stage.

In 2014, close to 23,000 metres of infill drilling was undertaken on the series of parallel, north-south striking gold bearing structures comprising the Supremo deposit, which contributes approximately 70% of the oxide gold ounces targeted for mining in the PEA. Approximately 32,000 metres or 55% of the total planned infill drilling program at Supremo remains to be completed in 2015. The objective of the infill drilling program is to verify and upgrade the classification of in-pit resources defined in the 2014 PEA from the "Inferred" category to the higher-confidence "Indicated" category for eventual inclusion in the Coffee Mining Feasibility Study.

"The Supremo oxide-gold bearing structures are expected to contribute 70% of the ounces in our initial, 11-year open-pit mine plan for Coffee and underpin the strong economics of the Project," stated Eira Thomas, Kaminak President & CEO. "Further, all of the Supremo structures remain open along strike and to depth offering excellent potential for resource expansion in the future. As with the infill drilling results recently reported for Latte, Double-Double and Kona, the infill drilling completed so far at Supremo continues to demonstrate good agreement with existing geological interpretations and the resource block model."

Based on the 2014 PEA, the Supremo deposit contributes approximately 1,272,000 ounces of gold (recoverable) at an average diluted grade of 1.13 g/t Au in oxide resources plus an additional 44,000 ounces of gold at 1.64 g/t Au as transitional resources. A total of 22,830 metres of infill drilling from 132 holes completed to date at Supremo has firmed up the existing geological interpretation providing additional confidence in the location, geometry and continuity of the mineralized lodes. The bulk of the 2014 Supremo program was focused within Supremo T3 and T4 South where infill drilling has now been completed over strike lengths of 1,300m and 800m respectively. The Supremo 2015 drilling program commenced 1 February, 2015 as planned, with two RC drills currently turning at the Coffee property.

The location and spacing of infill drilling was determined in consultation with independent Qualified Person Robert Sim, P.Geo of SIM Geological Inc., who completed the Coffee Gold Project Mineral Resource Estimates (announced December 13, 2012, and updated January 28, 2014). The Company plans to update the mineral resource estimates for inclusion in the final feasibility study once all of the drill results from all 2014-15 infill drill programs have been received.

Feasibility and Environment Baseline Program Updates

As announced 28 July, 2014, the Company initiated a mining Feasibility Study on the Coffee Gold Project with a targeted completion date of end 2015 or early 2016. Drilling and related field programs ended in the last week of November 2014 and resumed in early February 2015. Drilling in 2015 will comprise ongoing resource delineation infill, condemnation drilling of areas containing proposed mine infrastructure, and geotechnical and hydrological drilling. Environmental and heritage baseline studies, and engineering studies into the optimal route and design of the access road, are also advancing as planned. All metallurgical sampling was completed in 2014 and composites are now at the Kappes Cassiday and Associates Laboratory undergoing leaching and other test work.
