SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 20, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ensurge, Inc. (OTCBB: ESGI ) reported today that it has commenced discussions, and is in negotiations, with Mojave Gold Corporation to participate in the exploration of Platinum Group Minerals (PGMs) in Guyana.
The Company has previously worked with Mojave in exploring the alluvial presence and recovery of PGMs at a test site on the Mazaruni River in Guyana. Recent international market developments in PGMs have increased investor interest in the exploration of PGMs in Guyana.
Echoing previous statements in 2013, Mojave Gold's President and CEO, Steve Heard, stated, "In our work to identify PGM deposits, we have conducted substantial soil and rock sampling, biochem and geochem analysis, and gathered ground and aerial magnetic data. This valuable cross-confirming information allows us to choose drill sites for locating PGMs in bedrock. Having already established a relationship through the prior joint test facility with Ensurge, now is an excellent time for the companies to explore a new relationship that allows Ensurge to take an equity position in Mojave."
Jeff Hanks, Ensurge CFO, stated: "Our relationship with Mojave started in early 2012 and this is an exciting opportunity for our work in Guyana to go to an entirely new level. We think having an opportunity to work with Mojave in developing PGM's is a positive move for the Company."
The Company's subsidiary, TransGlobal Gold Corp., is currently operating several dredges on the Mazaruni River and with additional equipment intends to increase gold production operations over the next year. "A closer relationship between Ensurge and Mojave will benefit both companies in many ways, from financing opportunities to operational and exploration logistics and this is why we are now engaged in discussions involving greater involvement of Ensurge," said Mr. Heard.
