Astur Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:AST)(FRANKFURT:CDC) ("Astur Gold" or the
"Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has commenced drilling on its
100% owned Salave Gold Project in Asturias, Spain. The drill program will
provide additional information for the on-going Feasibility Study, which
commenced in June 2013.


Astur Gold will be drilling to follow-up on mineralization that remains open
along strike and at depth with a goal to increase the size of the mineral
resource. Salave has not been drilled since 2005 and that last program ended in
high grade mineralization. This drilling also targets an area where the current
drill spacing is greater than 50 meters in order to increase resource confidence
and potentially convert inferred resources to the measured and indicated
categories. Astur Gold will also obtain fresh mineralization to complete
metallurgical testing and process design.


The Company will update the market with results as they become available.

Robert J Fraser P.Geo. of R. J. Fraser Mineral Exploration Inc., an independent
Consulting Geologist and Qualified Person ("QP") as defined by NI 43-101, has
approved the content of this news release.


ABOUT ASTUR GOLD 

Astur Gold is developing its 100% owned Salave Gold Project in Asturias,
northern Spain, which is one of the largest undeveloped gold deposits in Western
Europe. The Company received approval for an underground mine from the
Commission for Environmental Affairs of the Principality of Asturias in November
2012 and is completing additional requirements for the processing plant, water
discharge, and tailings licenses. The Company is working to build a partnership
with the people of Asturias to generate sustainable economic benefits for the
region while balancing the needs of environmental protection and social
community development.

future price of metals; availability of third party contractors and equipment;
failure of equipment to operate as anticipated; accidents, effects of weather
and other natural phenomena and other risks associated with the mineral
exploration industry; environmental risks; community relations; delays in
obtaining governmental approvals or financing; fluctuations in mineral prices;
the nature of mineral exploration and mining and the uncertain commercial
viability of certain mineral deposits; government regulations and the ability to
