Surrey, B.C. / TheNewswire - September 17, 2015 - New Carolin Gold Corp. (the "Company") (TSXV: LAD): is pleased to announce that further to its news release of June 23, 2015, it has completed the acquisition of an additional 30% interest in the mineral claims and crown grants held by Century Mining Corp. Inc. and Tamerlane Ventures Inc, both companies currently under receivership proceedings pursuant to the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada). The 30% interest was originally held by Tamerlane Ventures Inc. and the transaction completed as a result of a cash payment made by the Company of $200,010.00 to the receiver of Tamerlane Ventures. The Company expresses its appreciation for the assistance provided by the receiver of Century Mining in facilitating this acquisition.
The Company's Ladner Gold Project consists of approximately 144 square kilometers of contiguous mineral claims and several crown grants associated with surface rights at the original Carolin Mine and primary mineralized Idaho zone. The Company now has 100% control of the southern portion of the Ladner Gold Project (approximately 72 square kilometers) and a 40% interest in the northern claims and crown grants, which have been formally registered in the Company's name.

The acquisition is part of the implementation of an agreement in place between the Company and the receiver of Century Mining in respect of the Company acquiring 100% ownership, subject to terms and conditions provided for in a press release dated August 27, 2014. The Company continues to work toward satisfying the terms of the agreement to now acquire the remaining 60% held by the receiver of Century Mining, and in that respect, the Company has to date: extinguished $110,000 in secured debt and satisfied the secured debenture provision in the agreement; raised over $750,000 since the agreement was entered into; paid down approximately $150,000 of trade related debt; and completed the Tamerlane Ventures property acquisition.
