Peter Gianulis, CEO of Allegiant Gold, commented: “It has been a pleasure to have worked with Summa Silver the past three years.  They have proven to be an excellent partner in helping develop a high-quality asset such as our Mogollon Project.  We believe that Mogollon has the potential to be one of the premier underground gold/silver projects in the United States.  Over the past four years, Allegiant has received approximately  $7 million in cash and share payments from our farm-out partners, which has led to our ability to finance our company and projects with minimal dilution.  We look forward to continue advancing our Eastside District project and working closely with our farm-out partners.”

 

ABOUT ALLEGIANT

Allegiant owns six highly prospective gold projects in the United States, five of which are in the mining-friendly jurisdiction of Nevada. Two of Allegiant’s projects are currently farmed-out, providing for cost reductions and cash-flow. Allegiant’s flagship, district-scale Eastside project hosts a large and expanding gold resource and is in an area of excellent infrastructure. Preliminary metallurgical testing indicates that both oxide and sulphide gold mineralization at Eastside is amenable to heap leaching.
