African Gold Group, Inc. Announces Filing of Preliminary Economic Assessment and Year-End Progress Report

(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 12/23/14 -- African Gold Group, Inc. (TSX VENTURE: AGG) ("AGG" or the "Company") is pleased to advise it has filed the Resource Update and PEA on SEDAR in accordance with National Instrument 43-101, on 23 December, 2014 for its 100%-owned Kobada gold deposit in Mali, West Africa ("Kobada" or the "Project")
The cash flow forecast for the final version of the PEA, filed on SEDAR, has been updated to provide the Project's financial metrics after the payment of royalties, taxes and dividends to the Government of Mali. Production schedules, gold production and all other physical parameter estimates that were presented in the November 25 press release have not changed in the final version of the PEA, filed on SEDAR.
As previously announced, the PEA envisions a relatively simple and low capital cost gravity concentration and concentrate leaching operation with an initial fifteen year mine life. Mining output is modeled at 1.6 million tonnes per annum.
PEA HIGHLIGHTS:
By all financial metrics (i.e. gross cash flows, discounted pre or post-tax cash flow), the Project displays robust economics which result from the relatively high initial gold production and low waste to ore ratio during the first two years of operation. Further details of this summary can be found in the Kobada Gold Project Technical Report, filed on SEDAR.

2014 YEAR-END CORPORATE UPDATE
The Company is pleased to provide stakeholders with a year-end corporate update, as AGG took definitive steps to transform the Company from a green fields gold explorer to a mine developer over 2014. Accomplishments funded and achieved by AGG in 2014 include:
President and CEO of African Gold Group, Mr. Declan Franzmann, FAusIMM, comments:
"The inclusion of cash flow analysis accounting for taxes, royalties and dividend payments to the Government of Mali completes the financial assessment for the Kobada Gold Project. The Project displays robust economics, low capital cost, and provides a development route with opportunity for organic expansion of the Kobada resource base and production profile, which is achievable from cash flow. The Company's aim is to maximise the value of the Kobada Project and provide shareholders with a long term sustainable return on their investment.
On the Project development front, 2014 has been a year of great change for AGG as it honed the development strategy for Kobada and strengthened the mine development team with the aim of gold production in 2016. I look forward with great anticipation to 2015, as the Company progresses through further milestones and into the construction phase of the Project."
On Behalf of the Board of Directors:
Declan Franzmann, President and CEO
