Toronto, ON / TheNewswire / November 4, 2016 - Golden Hope Mines
Limited (“Golden Hope” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has
signed a contract with AGP Mining Consultants (“AGP”) to complete a geological and engineering evaluation on the Company’s 100%
owned Bellechasse-Timmins Gold Project (the "Project") in southeastern Quebec. Work performed by AGP will be completed in two
phases. The first phase will focus on geological model development and wire framing of the mineralized zones. The second phase
focuses on further detailed design and reporting to allow Golden Hope to submit documents for a small mine permit. The first phase
work is commencing immediately.
AGP works nationally and internationally on mining projects, and has completed many assignments
related to gold projects and small mines. Frank Candido states, “AGP gives us the comfort of working with a team that is capable
and experienced without the layers of management overhead seen in some larger firms. Having AGP’s owners directly involved in work
for the Project for a small company like Golden Hope gives us access to the know how to execute successfully without the need to
build a large internal geological and engineering team.”
AGP’s work will also be integrated into the permitting and environmental work being completed by
WSP Canada Inc. ("WSP") that was announced in Golden Hope’s press release dated November 2, 2016.
The scope of work includes determining the resources on the site and then examining the potential
mining options for the Project, which will help direct future metallurgical test work that may be required to supplement previous
metallurgical work from the property.
