Drilling At Eastside Gold Project

VANCOUVER, BC - Columbus Gold Corporation has commenced drilling at its 100% owned Eastside Project in Nevada. Drilling will consist of 250 rotary holes, of which 175 holes totaling about 45,000 meters (150,000 feet) are planned to be completed in 2015. Drilling has commenced with one drill and will increase to two drills in late June and subject to results, three drills in the fall.

The purpose of the drilling is to extend the area of known gold mineralization in the Original Target, and to infill gaps between widely spaced existing drill holes containing significant gold. The 2015 drilling also includes up to 25 of the 175 holes to test New Targets 4 and 6, and the northern half of New Target 1.
