Kaminak Commences Feasibility Study at Coffee Gold Project

Kaminak Gold Corporation (TSX VENTURE:KAM) today announced that its Board of
Directors have approved commencement of a Feasibility study for the Coffee Gold
Project, located 130km south of Dawson City, Yukon. The decision to proceed
directly to Feasibility study follows on the heels of a positive Preliminary
Economic Assessment ("PEA") that was announced last month and which indicates
that Coffee represents a robust, high margin, rapid pay-back, 11-year open pit
mining project at a US$1250 gold price. Feasibility activities will be initiated
in Q3 2014, and will include infill drilling, additional metallurgical
test-work, continued environmental baseline activities and a condemnation
program under an initial budget of approximately $12 million. The company's
current cash position is approximately $27 million. 


Eira Thomas, CEO commented: "Following the announcement of a private placement
by Ross Beaty and Zebra Holdings on July 14, Kaminak's Board of Directors have
approved the commencement of an approximately $30 million Feasibility study for
the Coffee Gold Project, to be completed by the end of 2015. Coffee represents a
low-risk, high-return development-track gold project in Yukon, Canada where
there is a long history of and strong support for gold mining. The completion of
a Feasibility study is the next major milestone on our path towards a production
decision."


Preliminary Economic Analysis for Coffee

On June 10, 2014, Kaminak announced the results of a Preliminary Economic
Analysis at Coffee. Highlights of this study are presented below (all amounts
are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated; base case is stated using a
gold price of US$1,250 per ounce and an exchange rate of C$1.00 equal US$0.95):




--  NPV of $522 million at a 5% discount rate and an IRR of 32.8% before
    taxes and mining duties, and an NPV of $330 million and an IRR of 26.2%
    after taxes and mining duties 
    
--  Mine life of 11 years with peak production of 231,000 ounces per annum
    (Year 1) and average LOM production of 167,000 ounces of gold 
    
--  Average metallurgical recoveries of 88% gold 
    
--  1,859,000 ounces LOM gold production at an average diluted grade of 1.23
    g/t Au 
    
--  All-in sustaining costs(i) of US $688/oz (including royalties) for LOM,
    generating an Operating margin of over US $560/oz or 42% 
    
--  Initial capital costs of $305 million (including a 15% contingency) 
    
--  Payback of 1.8 years pre-tax and 2.0 years post-tax 
    
--  Gross Revenue of $2.4 Billion and Operating Cash-flow of $1.24 Billion 



(i)All-in Sustaining Costs are presented as defined by the World Gold Council
("WGC") less Corporate G&A.


Feasibility Study

Given the positive findings in the PEA, which indicate that Coffee is a robust
project at current gold prices, Kaminak's Board of Directors has elected to
advance directly to Feasibility. As follow-on to the work undertaken during the
PEA, Kaminak has designed an initial Feasibility study program to be undertaken
over the next 12-18 months that will incorporate the following elements:




--  Infill drilling: Approximately 70,000 metres of diamond core and reverse
    circulation drilling to bring the open pit resource to "Indicated"
    category 
    
--  Additional metallurgical testwork to confirm and expand characterization
    of both Oxide and Transitional resources 
    
--  Condemnation program comprising drilling, soil sampling and trenching 
    
--  Geotechnical work to examine pit wall stability, heap leach facility and
    waste dump foundations 
    
--  Environmental Baseline work 
    
--  First Nations and Community Engagement 
    
--  Feasibility study of a permanent all weather access road 



The total budget for the feasibility work program is estimated at approximately
$30 million with initial approved expenditures of $12 million to be completed in
2014 comprising long lead-time and critical path items that have been identified
from the work programs listed above. Additional objectives of the 2014 program
are to evaluate the following:




--  nearby exploration targets for possible inclusion in the feasibility
    resources/reserves 
    
--  the economics of coarse crushing and possible run-of-mine leaching 
    
--  contract mining or equipment leasing 
    
--  the exact route of the access road and possible synergies with other
    users 
    
--  additional Kaminak staffing requirements for Feasibility implementation 
    
--  engineering and construction companies for selection of the final
    Feasibility team 



Assuming the completion of a positive feasibility study in 2015, it is expected
that Kaminak will enter a two year Environmental Assessment phase, with the
Yukon Environmental and Socio-economic Assessment Board (YESAB) application to
be submitted in early 2016. 


Coffee has high potential for resource expansion, with many of the deposits in
the current resource remaining open along strike and to depth. The 2014 Phase I
program, testing some of the greater than 20 km of gold in soil anomalies
outside of the current resource area, is nearing completion with results to be
assessed and a possible Phase II program decision to be made pending receipt of
outstanding results during Q3.
