Source Gold Corp. (SRGL) Announces Acquisition of the Great White North Gold Property

2012-04-03 16:35 ET - News Release

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 04/03/12

Source Gold Corp. ("the Company") (OTCBB:SRGL) is pleased to announce the acquisition of a major new gold prospect: the Great White North Gold Project.

After extensive due diligence, Source Gold has acquired the Great White North Gold Project based on strong geological similarities to the Carlin Trend Style gold mineralization. The Carlin Trend in northern Nevada has produced more gold than any other mining district in the United States - estimated at over 50,000,000 troy ounces.

ATAC's 1600 Sq KM, Rackla Gold Project is the only Canadian drill proven Carlin-Type gold discovery. Source Gold believes that based upon surface geology and geochemical information it has acquired, the Great White North Gold Project displays remarkable similarity to the ATAC Rackla gold district. Furthermore, the Great White North's proximity to ATAC Resources' recent gold find combined with the geological similarity of both properties; has induced the seller of the property to require Source Gold to pay nothing now, only a future work commitment and restricted shares in Source Gold Corp. Source Gold will plan a phase one spring exploration program shortly, details to follow.

Source Gold acquired the 2,785 acres of highly prospective mineral claims in Northern British Columbia, on the Yukon border. The area is home to some of the most prolific gold finds in Canadian history: Barrick discovered Eskay Creek which produced over 320,000 ounces and Placer Dome found McDame Creek where the historic 72 ounce gold nugget was found.

This acquisition makes Source Gold Corp. one of the only junior gold companies with gold properties diversified among three of the most prolific gold source areas in politically stable North America: the KRK Claims in the Beardmore-Geraldton greenstone belt, the Vulture Mine Claims in Arizona, and now the Great White North Claims in Northern British Columbia. The Beardmore-Geraldton belt has historically produced over 4.1 million ounces of gold, while the Vulture Mine was the biggest gold producing mine in Arizona before it was shut down due to the war effort in 1942.

"This acquisition is very exciting for Source Gold," stated Lauren Notar, President for Source Gold. "Not only is the geology exciting, but the terms the Company was able to procure for the property make it a perfect acquisition for a junior. And the success our neighbors have had on their gold claims is very encouraging indeed."

Source Gold is currently scheduling exploration of the Great White North Gold Claims and intends to initiate the first phase of exploration in the 2012 exploration season.
