WICKENBURG, Ariz., Sept. 6, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Focus Gold Corp. (FGLD) is pleased to announce a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Alix Resources Corp. (ARXRF) which will see the respective companies pool their geological records and relevant resources to push forward the exploration and development time lines for their respective gold projects located in Yavapai county in the Wickenburg area of Arizona.

Focus Gold has entered into a Letter of Intent (LOI) to purchase the former producing Water-Sunset Gold Mine.
