Majestic Gold Corp.: Review of Operation Completed
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Apr 3, 2014) -
Majestic Gold Corp. ("Majestic" or the "Company")
(TSX-VENTURE:MJS)(FRANKFURT:A0BK1D) is pleased to announce the
completion of an operational review of the Company's Songjiagou
mine by Paul Blair, a Seattle based mining engineer with extensive
experience in China. The goal of Mr. Blair's trip was to evaluate
all aspects of the operation and to make recommendations to enhance
overall gold production at Songjiagou. Following Stephen Kenwood's
appointment as President of Majestic, he travelled to Songjiagou to
meet with Mr. Blair and had an opportunity to discuss the various
recommendations while on site.
In priority are recommendations that would yield better control
of and an increase in the grade of material going to the mill. Mr.
Blair suggested a refinement of the company's mine pit plan by the
use of continuous sampling from blast hole cuttings. The drills
will be adapted to collect the cuttings as drilled from which
representative samples can be taken to be evaluated on a daily
basis on-site at the Company's assay facility, which is currently
handling about 50 mill process samples per day. In this way, grade
information will be immediately available during the loading cycle
allowing lower grade material to be separated from the throughput
to the mill and removed as waste. This is particularly crucial at
Songjiagou, as visually ore and waste are not discernibly
discrete.
While at Songjiagou, Mr. Kenwood also met with mine-site
personnel and the mining contractor, Yantai Dahedong Processing Co.
Ltd. ("Dahedong"), and was able to discuss the recommendations from
the operational review. Mr. Kenwood is pleased to report that
Dahedong is supportive of this approach. The revised mining and
milling agreement has been finalized and now reflects Majestic's
responsibility for overall mine design and planning and allowing
Majestic to direct the mining activity, including the disposal of
waste material.
The geological and technical information contained in this news
release has been reviewed and approved by Stephen Kenwood, P. Geo.,
who is a qualified person under the definitions established by
National Instrument 43-101.

Forward‐looking statements are statements which relate to future
events. Such statements include estimates, forecasts and statements
as to management's expectations with respect to, among other
things, business and financial prospects, financial multiples and
accretion estimates, future trends, plans, strategies, objectives
and expectations, including with respect to production, exploration
drilling, reserves and resources, exploitation activities and
events or future operations. Information inferred from the
interpretation of drilling results and information concerning
mineral resource estimates may also be deemed to be forward-looking
statements, as it constitutes a prediction of what might be found
to be present when, and if, a project is actually
developed.
In some cases, you can identify forward‐looking statements
by terminology such as "may", "should", "expects", "plans,
"anticipates", believes", "estimates", "predicts", "potential", or
"continue" or the negative of these terms or other comparable

Production Disclaimer
The Company's production decision was not based on a
feasibility study of mineral reserves demonstrating economic and
technical viability. The Company's production decision was made
based on the open pit optimization resource model set out in the
Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA"), which takes into account
the relatively low mining costs negotiated by the Company. The pit
optimization that was conducted in the preliminary assessment
generated a production schedule summary at grade cut-off of 0.30
gram per tonne Au.
The PEA includes the inferred mineral resources that are
considered too speculative geologically to have the economic
considerations applied to them that would enable them to be
categorized as mineral reserves. There is no certainty that the
preliminary assessment will ever be realized. Mineral resources
that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic
viability.
