    at AGG's Kobada Gold Project, located in south-west Mali; and 
    
--  The appointment of Michael Nikiforuk, past President, Founder and
    Director of AGG, to Executive Director, Corporate Development. In his
    new role, Mr. Nikiforuk will focus on the Company's corporate social

    initiatives. 



Appointments Intended To Fast-Track The Kobada Gold Project Into Production 

Mr. Declan Franzmann, a professional mining engineer, has more than 22 years
experience in corporate, operational and senior engineering roles. Declan has
accumulated significant experience working on gold projects within Australia and
internationally. Most recently, Declan was Founding Director of Crosscut
Consulting, a resource engineering business providing mine planning and
management services since 2005. Mr. Franzmann has held senior management roles
at the Tritton, CSA, Gympie, and Chariot Mines. He has extensive experience in
both underground and open-pit mining as a professional engineer. Declan has held
executive and non-executive director positions for several ASX and TSX listed
companies, most recently for Lachlan Star Limited (TSX:LSA). Mr. Franzmann
completed a Bachelor of Engineering (Mining) at the University of Ballarat,
Victoria, Australia and holds First Class Mine Manager's Certificates in Western
Australia, Queensland and NSW. Declan is a Fellow of the Australasian Institute
of Mining and Metallurgy ("FAusIMM").


Executive Director, Corporate Development of AGG, Michael. Nikiforuk commented,
"Over the past several months our Executive Team and Board have worked
extensively in the search for a CEO with the right credentials and experience
required to develop AGG's Kobada gold project. It gives me great pleasure to
welcome Declan on behalf of the entire AGG team. The depth of Declan's
experience in the development of gold projects and his background in mine
planning will be invaluable during this significant period of AGG's growth. We
are excited at the prospect of continuing to demonstrate the exceptional
economics of the Kobada Project through the impending Feasibility Study, with a
view to aggressively transitioning the Company from explorer/developer to gold
producer."


Newly appointed Director, President and CEO of AGG, Declan Franzmann comments,
"I am excited to be joining AGG at this very important time in the Company's
growth and I look forward to working with the team as we progress Kobada towards
production. I am convinced that Kobada is a strong project both technically and
economically. The simplicity of the deposit and metallurgical characteristics
will make for a robust bulk mining operation. I am particularly impressed by the
extent and potential of the mineralized system and believe there is significant
exploration potential outside of the present Indicated and Inferred Mineral
Resource."


In respect to his appointment as President and CEO of the Company, Mr. Franzmann
has been granted 1,000,000 incentive stock options exercisable at $0.15 per
share, expiring on April 29, 2019. The Company has also agreed to grant Mr.
Franzmann an additional 500,000 options once there is availability under the
Company's stock option plan. 500,000 of Mr. Franzmann's incentive stock options
will vest immediately; an additional 500,000 options will vest upon Mali's
Minister of Mines granting AGG a Mining License for Kobada with the final
500,000 incentive stock options vesting upon the first pour of gold at Kobada.
The granting of the options is subject to regulatory approval of applicable
filings.
