| January 09, 2013 Minco Gold Provides Corporate Update | |||||
| Minco Gold Corporation (the "Company" or "Minco Gold") (TSX:MMM/NYSE EURONEXT:MGH/FSE:MI5) is pleased to provide the following update as results of a strategic review recently completed on its portfolio of properties in China and other corporate initiatives. Towards the end of 2012, the Company completed an exploration program on its Longnan projects located in Gansu, China, including three drill holes. The assay results from the exploration program are pending. The Company has recently completed a detailed review of its portfolio of properties in China. While the exploration will be focused on the core projects in Longnan in 2013, the Company intends to sell the non-core projects in China to generate working capital for the Company and to maximize its shareholder value. Parallel to our exploration in China, the Company also intends to diversify outside China in 2013. We are actively evaluating advanced gold projects outside China for potential acquisition. Mr. Peter Voulgaris, Vice President of Corporate Development of the Company, is in charge of this initiative. The Company plans to continue to hold the 13 million shares of Minco Silver Corporation, representing approximately 22.15% of the issued and outstanding shares of Minco Silver, with the view that this is one of its key assets. About Minco Gold Minco Gold Corporation (TSX:MMM/ NYSE EURONEXT:MGH FSE:MI5) is a Canadian mining company involved in the direct acquisition and development of high-grade, advanced stage gold properties.
