NuLegacy Update on Permitting and Exploration Progress

Engages Debra Struhsacker as Permitting and Government Relations Consultant

RENO, Nev., July 28, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NuLegacy Gold Corporation (TSXV: NUG; OTCQB: NULG.F) provides updates on the permitting and exploration progress on its flagship 108 sq. km Red Hill property located in Nevada’s Cortez trend, which is host to multiple large high-grade Carlin-type gold deposits in one of the world’s premier gold mining jurisdictions. 

Permitting Update: In June of this year NuLegacy successfully acquired 44 pre-approved Greater Sage-Grouse conservation credits in order to fully satisfy NuLegacy’s compensatory mitigation obligations for its US$500,000 modified Plan of Operations (POP) over the Red Hill project as noted in our news release of June 16, 2020.

NuLegacy’s CEO, Albert Matter, comments “We are pleased to be the first exploration company to work with the State’s Sagebrush Ecosystem Program to purchase credits from the Nevada Conservation Credit System.  This transaction demonstrates our commitment to conserving Nevada’s wildlife.”

Permitting for NuLegacy’s modified POP at Red Hill is on schedule with the submission of the new environmental baseline studies to the Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) completed during July (view June 16, 2020 news release).

Pending BLM’s approval, NuLegacy plans to drill three to five deep holes in the most developed targets this fall (with a mid-October 2020 start) before winter shut down, with the balance of the initial 16 hole US$3.5 million program scheduled to start up in the spring of 2021.

NuLegacy has retained Ms. Debra Struhsacker, a well-known hard-rock mining policy expert and permitting and government relations consultant, to assist in completing the modification of the POP and securing the BLM’s approval, anticipated for mid-September 2020.

“We are delighted to add Ms. Struhsacker to our professional team,” said NuLegacy CEO, Albert Matter. “Debra has a proven track record of effectively advocating for her clients and the mining industry and successfully securing project permits for exploration and mining projects in Nevada and elsewhere. Debra’s addition to our team provides immediate in-house environmental permitting capability allowing Mark Bradley, our VP, Exploration to pivot his focus entirely onto the planned drilling program in the target rich Rift Anticline.”
