NEW YORK, April 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
The price of Gold hit five-month high on Wednesday at 1,286.29 per ounce, as rising global tensions mount. The yellow metal is
now trading near the highest level since the presidential election in November 2016. Concerns about
global geopolitical conflicts, along with the upcoming French elections continued to drive the demand of gold. The price of gold
slumped in November 2016, but has rebounded since mid-December, or gaining more than 10 percent
year to date. Kenadyr Mining Holdings Corp. (TSX-V: KEN), Nevsun Resources Ltd. (NYSE: NSU) (TSX: NSU.TO), Eldorado Gold
Corp. (NYSE: EGO) (TSX: ELD.TO), Yamana Gold Inc. (NYSE: AUY) (TSX: YRI.TO), B2Gold Corp. (NYSE: BTG) (TSX: BTO.TO)
Gold is often viewed as safe-haven asset in times of geopolitical and financial turmoil. Gold price surged on Tuesday due to
the growing tensions between the United States and North Korea.
The Asian country warned of a nuclear attack on the United States if provoked. In addition, the
upcoming presidential election in France deepened the concerns about political stability. The
first-round of voting will be on April 23rd and investors are concerned that an unexpected result
may lead to the destabilization of the European Union. Focusing on continued global concerns, the conflicts in the Middle East also have been an influence. Natixis precious metals analyst Bernard
Dahdah explained, according to a report by Reuters, "Tensions in the Middle East haven't
receded and various other geopolitical stories can be put together which help support the price of gold…. But typically
(safe-haven buying) will not have an impact on the long term on gold."
Kenadyr Mining Holdings Corp. (TSX-V: KEN) on March 31 st announced that, "It
has commenced trading today on the TSX Venture Exchange with the symbol TSXV: KEN. Kenadyr has no debt, approximately
$8.5 million in cash, a strong institutional shareholder base and a management team with extensive
in-country operational experience and merger and acquisition expertise.
Kenadyr's Bourbai project comprises a 100% owned exploration license covering a contiguous 164 square kilometer land package
that encircles the Zigin/Kyrgyz/Altyn newly constructed and operational Taldy-Bulak Levoberejnv Mine ('TBL Mine') which was built
at a cost of USD $296-million, in northern Kyrgyz Republic.
Zijin, the majority owner of the TBL Mine, is one of China's largest gold producers, second
largest copper and zinc producer, as well as a major producer of tungsten and iron ore. In 2015, Zijin's sales revenue and net
profit attributable to the parent company reached USD $11.44 billion and USD $255 million respectively, ranking 1st and 2nd respectively among 14 major global public gold miners (source:
Zijin website). According to a news release published by Zijin Mining Group Co. Ltd. on Aug. 15,
2011, the national resources table of Kyrgyz Republic stated that the Taldy-Bulak
Levoberejny field contains (C1 plus C2) 8,906,100 tonnes of gold ore (the average grade is 7.23 grams per tonne) and the gold

in the resource model, as well as new results from the testing of Harena at depth. Nevsun is also pleased to report that the
6,386 line kilometer VTEM (Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic) airborne survey has been completed over an 825 square kilometer
licensed area at Bisha. Cliff Davis, Nevsun CEO, commented, "The new drilling demonstrates that
the already sizeable Harena resource extends 150 meters beyond its currently modelled limits, further enhancing the potential for
underground mining. We are particularly encouraged by the increasing copper content which indicates the mineralizing system
is strengthening."
