Mr. Schafer stated, "I have known the U.S. Gold Corp. team since the founding of the Company. I assisted as a consultant with the original acquisition of Copper King, now the CK Gold Project back in 2014. I am very optimistic on the future potential for U.S. Gold Corp. Having a near-term production asset in the mining friendly jurisdiction of Wyoming, with George Bee leading the project forward, is exciting. I have known George for many years and believe that he will be a great operator to move all of the Company's assets to the next level. I believe the Challis Gold project represents a substantial opportunity and look forward to applying my industry experience, guidance and contacts to help advance the Company."
