Kesselrun Resources Provides Huronian Update
Structural and alteration mapping is ongoing on the Huronian Gold Project with a focus on the Moss SW zone, an interpreted extension of the geology that hosts the Moss Lake Gold Deposit located approximately 1.5 kilometres from the Huronian Gold Project's property boundary. Significant grab sample results are summarized below.

Michael Thompson, P.Geo., President and CEO commented, "The current work on the Huronian Gold Project continues to give us encouraging results and has added to our geological understanding of the mineralizing systems. Targeting is ongoing utilizing these results for eventual drill testing in the future with the goal of an NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate."
The Huronian Gold Project consists of 154 unpatented mining claims and four patented mining claims for a total land package of 5,200 hectares. The project is situated in the highly prolific Shebandowan Greenstone Belt located in the Abitibi-Wawa Subprovince approximately 100 km west of Thunder Bay, Ontario along major transportation and power routes.
The project hosts numerous significant gold zones including the past producing Huronian Mine that produced 29,629 ounces gold and 170,463 ounces silver from 143,724 tons from 1932-1936 (Ontario Ministry of Northern Development and Mines Production Records). The project also covers the southwest strike extension of Wesdome Gold Mine's Moss Lake Gold Deposit. The Moss Lake Gold Deposit hosts an NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate of 40 million tonnes at a grade of 1.1 g/t (1,377,300 oz Au) Indicated and an additional 50 million tonnes at a grade of 1.1 g/t (1,751,600 oz Au) Inferred (Moss Lake Gold Mines NR February 20, 2013) as well as an NI 43-101 compliant Preliminary Economic Assessment (Moss Lake Gold Mines NR July 29, 2013).
