AFFINITY GOLD CORP. SIGNS DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT TO DEVELOP NEAR-TERM PRODUCTION GOLD & SILVER PROJECT IN PERU

Maple Grove, Minnesota - September 19th, 2013 - Affinity Gold Corp. (AFYG.pk) ("Affinity" or "the Company") is pleased to announce it has entered into the Definitive Option Agreement with Corizona Mining Partners, LLC ("Corizona") to develop, and earn a 60% interest in, its 966-hectare low sulphidation epithermal gold and silver project called "Machacala" ("Machacala").

"We have moved past the LOI stage representing a major turning point for Affinity and demonstrating clear progress and direction towards becoming a producer. We have set out to achieve something uncommon among the juniors - become a revenue-generating company - and we're starting to get some attention. The Machacala project is planned to be the first of a portfolio of near-term production precious mineral assets in Peru the Company intends to develop through its strategic relationship with Corizona," stated President and CEO, Corey Sandberg. Mr. Sandberg further stated, "along with our progress towards becoming a producer, we have begun to make strides in other areas as well which aim to better position the company for future success and increased shareholder value. This is an exciting time for Affinity as all that we have been working on for the last few years is now starting to come to fruition."

About Project Machacala:

The project is a low-sulphidation epithermal gold-silver-copper deposit located in the District of Carabamba, province of Julcan, La Libertad region to the North of Peru, at an elevation of 3,300 masl. The property is located approximately 110 miles southeast of the city of Trujillo, capital of the region, and 574 Km of Lima, capital of Peru, in a mining-friendly area. The Machacala project has had extensive exploration and mining activity completed in the past - even today, artisanal miners continue to actively leach tailings from prior mining activities.

  • Project was most recently explored by Gold Hawk Resources and Meridian Gold between 1997 and 2004 with a total of 8,500m in 45 core and RC drill holes completed.
  • Mine has multiple low sulphidation epithermal Au-Ag veins on property of which thirteen (13) have been identified and four (4) have been only modestly exploited where average grades are estimated to be 5 g/T Au and 155 g/T Ag.
  • In 2004, Gold Hawk Resources, Inc. estimated a total inferred resource of over 1,560,000 tons with a gold equivalent of 420,000 ounces for the overall project. (Gold Hawk, 2004)
  • 210,000 metric tons of tailings with grades estimated at 1.34 g/T Au and 56.36g/T Ag (Gold Hawk, 1997)
  • Metallurgical studies show 85%+ Au, 50%+ Ag recoveries in 24 hrs. leaching of un-milled tailings. Re-milling (-400 mesh) shows ability to increase recoveries to 90% Au, 73% Ag in 24 hrs. leaching (Corizona, 2012)
