TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - April 1, 2015) - Kirkland Lake Gold Inc. ("Kirkland Lake Gold" or the 
"Company") (TSX:KGI) (AIM:KGI), an operating and exploration gold company with operations in Ontario, Canada, 
announces today that it has received acceptance from the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") with respect to a

    "6% Debentures") (KGI.DB) 
b.  up to $6,900,000 7.5% convertible unsecured subordinated debentures (the 
    "7.5% Debentures") (KGI.DB.A) 
 
representing 10% of the public float issued and outstanding of each of the 6% Debentures and 7.5% Debentures as 
at March 30, 2015. 
 
Purchases of the 6% Debentures and 7.5% Debentures pursuant to the NCIB may be made through the facilities of 
the TSX commencing on April 3, 2015 and ending on April 2, 2016, or such earlier time as the Bid is completed 
or terminated at the option of the Company. The Company will pay the market price at the time of acquisition 
for any securities purchased through the facilities of the TSX. All securities purchased by the Company under 
the NCIB will be cancelled. 
 
As of the date hereof, there are $57,500,000 principal amount of the 6% Debentures and $69,000,000 principal 
amount of the 7.5% Convertible Unsecured Debentures. 
 
The average daily trading volumes for the six month period ended February 28, 2015 were a) $38,991.94 of the 6% 
Debentures; and b) $69,330.65 of the 7.5% Debentures. 
 
Under the NCIB, the maximum number of securities that the Company may purchase on a daily basis, other than

Company in the long term, and will also minimize potential future dilution of the Company's shares. 
 
About the Company 
 
Kirkland Lake Gold Inc.'s corporate goal is to create a self-sustaining and long-lived intermediate gold mining 
company based in the historic Kirkland Lake gold camp, as well as to explore opportunities for growth in other 
safe mining jurisdictions. The Company plans to do this by mining to the reserve grade, generating profits and 
free cash flow with a view to maximising value for the shareholders. The Company will also look to take 
advantage of its increased infrastructure capacity in the appropriate gold price environment. At the same time, 
the Company is committed to maintaining a significant exploration program aimed at developing and maintaining a 
property wide reserve and resource base sufficient to sustain a mine life of more than ten years. 
 
Over the last several years the Company has invested significant capital to improve the infrastructure of the 
business including upgrading the production hoist, skips, mill, underground mobile equipment and capital 
development. From initial discovery to present day there have been over 24 million ounces of gold mined from 
the Kirkland Lake gold camp while the current reserve and resource provides for potentially 14 years of mining 
with exploration upside. 
 
Neither the Toronto Stock Exchange nor the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange has reviewed or accepts
