TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - April 8, 2015) - Kirkland Lake Gold Inc. ("Kirkland Lake Gold" or the 
"Company") (TSX:KGI)(AIM:KGI), an operating and exploration gold mining company, announces the exercise of its 
right to buy-out a 0.5% net smelter return ("NSR") royalty (the "Royalty"), for $250,000, on the HM claim. The 
Royalty is part of a 1% NSR royalty on the HM claim, which was part of the Queenston Mining Joint Venture, and 
is located approximately 2,000 feet (610 metres) southeast of the #2 shaft at the Macassa Mine Complex. 
 
Mr. George Ogilvie, President & Chief Executive Officer commented, "We are pleased to be able to purchase this

on our property in the Kirkland Lake camp and to secure future value for our shareholders." 
 
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 significant exploration upside. 
 
Neither the Toronto Stock Exchange nor the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange has reviewed or accepts
