HALIFAX, Feb. 18, 2015 /CNW/ -  GoGold Resources Inc. (TSX: GGD), (GoGold), is pleased to announce that the definitive agreement has been signed, due diligence has been completed, and the company has received an NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate by P & E Mining Consultants Inc. ("P&E") on the newly acquired Promotora tailings at Parral, Mexico. The new additional 12.6 million ounces in the silver equivalent mineral resource estimate represents a significant increase in mineral resources located in close proximity to the Parral heap leach facility. GoGold has previously released a 35 million ounces of silver equivalent (50/1) reserve at Parral (See press release dated February 21, 2013), and the new tailings will add a further 12.6 million ounces of silver equivalent resources that could be processed at the existing facility.

GoGold has an exclusive option to process the tailings as further detailed below. The new Measured and Indicated mineral resource estimate is 5.77 M tonnes at 49 g/t silver and 0.26 g/t gold for an estimated 12.6 million silver equivalent ounces (Eq71/1) (see Table 1 below for details).

The mineral resource estimate is the result of an extensive due diligence program which entailed drilling 158 holes totaling 3,323 meters using a Boart Longyear Sonic Drill.

The definitive agreement provides GoGold irrevocable processing rights to tailings material which it intends to process at its Parral heap leach facility. These additional tailings were extracted from the same geological structures as the Parral tailings currently being processed, and is located only one kilometer further than the existing tailings currently being processed. The results to date have been positive and the company believes that with additional metallurgical work the new tailings could be incorporated into its existing heap leach facility.

P&E believes that the quantity and quality of the drilling is sufficient to classify the majority of the tailings deposit as Measured. All blocks in the mineral resource were estimated using the nearest three to eight assay samples from two or more drillholes, and all blocks within 50.0 metres of a drillhole have been classified as Measured. A small area along the margin of the deposit has been classified as Indicated as the nearest drillhole used for estimation is farther than 50m.

The initial mineral resource estimate for the Promotora tailings project was completed in accordance with the requirements of the Canadian Securities Administrators' National Instrument 43-101 and is in conformity with generally accepted CIM "Estimation of Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserves Best Practices" guidelines. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no guarantee that all or any part of the mineral resource will be converted into a mineral reserve. An independent NI 43-101 technical report relating to the Mineral Resource estimate for the Promotora tailings will be filed on SEDAR within 45 days of this news release.

Information and data used for the mineral resource estimate were supplied by GoGold Resources Inc., and take into account a total of 158 sonic drillholes completed across the tailings deposit. Sonic drillholes were drilled approximately every twenty-five metres along parallel lines spaced approximately fifty metres apart. From the supplied survey and drilling data a three-dimensional representation of the tailings deposit was constructed, delineating the surface and base of the deposit, as well as upper and lower sub-divisions.

Assay data available for the Promotora mineral resource include silver and gold. Assay sample lengths within the deposit range from 0.70 m to 2.00 m, averaging 1.01 m. A total of 98% of the samples are 1.00 m in length, and therefore assay sample lengths were not composited prior to estimation.

Summary statistics, histograms and probability plots of the assay data were examined for extreme values. Because of the regularity of the assay grades, grade capping was not deemed necessary. A range restriction of 50 m was used for values exceeding the following thresholds:

• Upper Zone: 150 g/t Ag, 0.90 g/t Au
• Lower Zone: 80 g/t Ag, 0.80 g/t Au

A total of 275 bulk density measurements from sonic drillhole core were supplied. Bulk density sample measurements were used to assign a global bulk density value of 1.49 tonnes per cubic metre to the upper zone of the deposit and 1.64 tonnes per cubic metre to the lower zone of the deposit. A percent model was used to capture the total mineral resource volume. Block grades were estimated using inverse distance cubed (ID3) linear weighting of assay data. Between five and eight samples from two or more drill holes were used for estimation. Each grade-element was estimated separately, and a silver equivalent value was calculated from the block estimates based on the following economic parameters:

• Gold: $1,250.00 / oz
• Silver: $18.00 / oz
• Total Operating Costs: $10.14 / tonne
• Gold Recovery: 50%
• Silver Recovery: 50%
• Breakeven Cutoff Grade: 36 g/t AgEq
• Silver:Gold ratio: 71:1

The reasonableness of the block estimates was checked by a visual comparison of block and assay grades in section. In addition, summary statistics for the block estimates were calculated and compared to assay grades, and a Nearest Neighbor model was also estimated. No significant discrepancies were noted.

A summary of the terms of the Promotora Tailings Project Agreement is given below:

? GoGold agrees to pay a fee of USD$15,000 per month. The payments will continue until such time that GoGold decides whether or not to develop the Project;

? If GoGold decides not to develop the Promotora Tailings Project, then GoGold has no further obligation under the agreement and the payments are terminated;

? If GoGold decides to develop and operate the Promotora Tailings Project, the rental payments continue over the life of the Project and Promotora is also entitled to a net profits interest of 12% after the deduction of costs and capital depreciation;
