Highlights included:

• Hole 243 -- 148 metres (486 feet) of 2.6 grams per tonne gold:
  • Including 14 metres (45 feet) of 21.9 grams per tonne gold;
  • Including 20 metres (65 feet) of 173.8 grams per tonne silver;

Peter Gianulis, CEO of Allegiant Gold, commented: “We are very pleased to have reached an agreement with a private individual to acquire these additional claims that are adjacent to our current claims. With this addition, Eastside now consists of 973 claims or approximately 80 km2 in one of the most prolific areas of Nevada, the Walker Lane Trend. Our most recent drilling campaign has given us more confidence that the western edge of the Original Pit Zone at Eastside is host to the higher-grade zones.”

ABOUT ALLEGIANT

Allegiant owns 100% of 10 highly-prospective gold projects in the United States, 7 of which are located in the mining-friendly jurisdiction of Nevada. Four of Allegiant’s projects are farmed-out, providing for cost reductions and cash-flow. Allegiant’s flagship, district-scale Eastside project hosts a large and expanding gold resource and is located in an area of excellent infrastructure. Preliminary metallurgical testing indicates that both oxide and sulphide gold mineralization at Eastside is amenable to heap leaching.
