$DCGD NEWS DENVER, May 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Discovery Gold Corporation (OTCQB-DCGD)(the "Company"), an emerging U.S. based mineral exploration company, is pleased to provide this latest management commentary concerning the current growth prospects and relative socio-political stability of the West African gold exploration and mining sectors, particularly in Ghana.

"Ghana has a long history of economic gold production and a very well-established mining infrastructure. With the help of a stable political climate, a skilled English speaking workforce, and mining friendly laws that provide foreign companies with clear title to mining concessions, Ghana has grown into the second largest gold producer in Africa, behind only South Africa," noted Discovery Gold's President, Steve Flechner. "The positive exploration and mining situation in Ghana is in stark contrast to other gold mining jurisdictions around the world, like many countries in South America and Asia, where politically motivated groups have taken significant steps to block lawful, environmentally sound, and economically beneficial mining projects from reaching production."
