Savary Gold Establishes an Initial Pit-Constrained Inferred Mineral Resource of 671,000 Ounces of Gold grading 2.28 g/t on its Karankasso JV Project in Burkina Faso

Toronto, Canada / TheNewswire / October 8, 2015 - Savary Gold Corp. (TSX-V: SCA) ("Savary" or the "Company") is pleased to announce an initial mineral resource estimate for its Karankasso Joint Venture Project in Burkina Faso of 9.2 million tonnes grading 2.28 g/t gold at a 0.5 g/t gold cut-off.

This release presents pit constrained Inferred Mineral Resources for six different zones. All zones appear to be open along strike and to depth. A summary of the zones is presented below:

• -Pit constrained Inferred Mineral Resources of 671,000 ounces* grading 2.28 g/t gold within 9.2 million tonnes in six zones using a 0.5 g/t gold cut-off

  -All mineralized zones remain open in at least two directions with modelled mineralized zones extending beyond the pit constrained mineral resources at all zones.

  -Preliminary metallurgical work on three of the six zones suggest average fresh rock recoveries of in excess of 90% (see Savary news release August 21, 2014)

1. 1.Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, sociopolitical, marketing, or other relevant issues..

2. 2.The quantity and grade of reported Inferred mineral resources in this estimation are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define these Inferred resources as an Indicated or Measured mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in upgrading them to an Indicated or Measured mineral resource category.

3. 3.The Karankasso Property Resource Estimates were prepared by Eugene Puritch, P. Eng. and Antoine Yassa, P. Geo. from P&E Mining Consultants Inc., Qualified Persons under NI 43-101 who are independent of the Company

4. 4.The mineral resources in this press release were estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM), CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions and Guidelines prepared by the CIM Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by CIM Council..

5. 5.The gold price used in this estimate was the Aug 31/15 approximate two year trailing average of US$1,250/oz. Gold recovery was 93% and mining costs were US$2.75/tonne. Processing and G&A costs combined were US$18.50/tonne. Pit optimization slopes were 50 degrees. Bulk densities used for the resource estimate were as follows; Saprolite 1.98 t/m3, Sap Rock 2.45 t/m3 and Fresh Rock 2.80 t/m3.

6. 6.The effective date of the Mineral Resource Estimate will be October 7, 2015.

Don Dudek, Savary's President and CEO commented: "From the drilling completed to date, all zones extend beyond their pit-constrained limits with most zone resources grading in excess of 2 g/t Au to a high of 3.28 g/t Au. Looking forward, management believes that Savary can continue to expand on the existing mineralized zones and discover new zones. Our focus will be to further test those zones that show the highest potential to increase in size combined with good grades and low potential strip ratios."

The Karankasso Property (the "Property") is located approximately 300 kilometres southwest of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso's capital city (see Figure), and 60 kilometres east of Bobo Dioulasso, the second largest city in Burkina Faso. The Property can be accessed by a paved highway with both rail and grid power coming within approximately 65 kilometres.

During the period from April 21, 2015 to June 30, 2015, 115 reverse circulation drill holes were completed on the Property for a total of approximately 14,514 metres of drilling. Following the drill program the various zones were interpreted by Savary and resource model wire frames were provided to P&E Mining Consultants Inc. for validation and subsequent resource estimation.

Mineral Resources have been estimated for six zones: Kien East, Kueredougou, Kueredougou West, Diosso South, Kueredougou West Trend and Karangosso, along an approximate 21 kilometre strike length in the northern half of the property (see Figure 1). Approximately 20% of the Pit constrained Inferred Mineral Resources are oxidized saprolite and sap rock with the remainder of the resources in fresh rock. The Kien East Zone is the largest of the six deposits containing approximately 3.6 million tonnes of Pit constrained Inferred Mineral Resources grading 1.65 g/t gold totaling 191,000 ounces (see Figure 2). The Kueredougou West Zone is the second largest zone with Pit constrained Inferred Mineral Resources of 1.9 million tonnes grading 2.12 g/t gold totaling approximately 130,000 ounces. The Kueredougou Main Zone is the highest grade containing 0.8 million tonnes of Pit constrained Inferred Mineral Resources grading 3.31 g/t gold totaling 85,000 ounces (see Figure 3) followed closely by the Kueredougou West Trend Zone containing Pit constrained Inferred Mineral Resources of 0.6 million tonnes grading 3.28 g/t gold totaling 66,000 ounces.

The resource estimation is based on a total of 194 reverse circulation and diamond drill holes totaling 23,208 metres.

Resource estimation utilized 3D constraining wireframes, capped 1m composites (capped between 20g/t and 30 g/t) and inverse distance cubed (1D3) grade interpolation.

Mineral resource depletion, due to artisanal mining activity, was estimated for all zones using the following parameters:

• --Kueredougou Main Zone - Saprolite - 75% removed, Saprock - 75% removed from Main 2 zone from 1196575N to 1196625N to 50 m depth

• --Diosso South- Saprolite - 50% removed

• --Kien East (West lens) - Saprolite - 50% removed

• --Kueredougou West Trend - Saprolite 50% removed

• --Karangosso - no artisanal mining

• --Kueredougou West Zone - no significant artisanal mining

• --Kien East - no significant artisanal mining

Preliminary metallurgical work indicated average fresh rock gold recoveries for three of the six zones (Kien East, Kueredougou and Karangosso) of 93% (see Savary Gold new release August 21, 2014). It is expected that the Diosso South and Kueredougou West Zones will have similar gold recovery characteristics as the Kueredougou Zone, as they are hosted by the same structural zone and that gold recoveries in oxidized rock would be slightly better. Preliminary metallurgical work is planned for the Diosso, Kueredougou West and Kueredougou West Trend Zones.

The mineralized zones are structurally-controlled and hosted by a variety of sediment, intermediate volcanic, potassic granite and diorite porphyry. Hydrothermal alteration minerals comprise a mixture of quartz vein, sericite, carbonate and pyrite with local fuchsite, arsenopyrite and tourmaline.

A summary of the of the Inferred Mineral Resource estimates, within an optimized pit shell, is presented in Table 1 with resource estimate details for each deposit, presented in Table 2. Cut-off grades at both, 0.5 g/t gold and 1.0 g/t gold, are presented with the mineral resource at a 0.5 g/t gold cut-off grade chosen as the base case. Optimized pit depths range from less than 100 metres for the Kueredougou West Zone to approximately 160 metres depth at the Karangosso Zone where locally higher grades draw the pit deeper.

QA/QC Comments

Savary's procedures for handling reverse circulation drill chips comprise initial riffle splitting of the rock chips from one metre drill length samples into approximately 2.5 kilogram samples, as well as description and logging into a database. A duplicate 2.5 kilogram sample, prepared at the same time as the assay sample, is kept as a reference for each sample. Assay standards, sample duplicates and assay blanks were inserted sequentially every 14 samples resulting in an assay standard inserted every 42 samples. This sampling procedure was periodically reviewed by Savary's President and CEO, and the Company QP, Don Dudek, P. Geo. All assay samples were collected at site by SGS Laboratory staff from Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. Sample preparation and fire assays were performed by SGS Laboratories based in Ouagadougou. Each sample was dried, crushed to 85% passing 2mm and then split to 1.5 kg by riffle splitter. The 1.5 kg, 2 mm split was pulverized to 95% passing 106?m. Fifty grams of the pulverized material was analysed for gold via fire assay with an atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) finish. SGS Burkina Faso SA operates according to ISO 17025 standards and institutes a full Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) program consisting of insertion of blanks, standard reference material, repeats and reject splits which in total account for up to 25% of all determinations conducted.
