About Orogen Gold
Orogen Gold plc is a UK public company quoted on the London Stock Exchange AIM market (ticker: ORE). The Company is focused on mineral exploration and development and is currently operating a gold exploration project at Mutsk in Armenia. The Mutsk project was optioned by Orogen early in 2013 to follow-up reports of a new epithermal discovery within an established gold district. Exploration by Orogen has confirmed and extended the gold discovery through diamond drilling and the deposit remains open in several directions. In Nevada, an Earn-In Agreement was recently signed covering the Silverton gold-silver prospect, giving Orogen the right to earn in to an initial 51% interest in the property. Anomalous gold values are recorded from bedrock across much of the property, but previous drilling is not considered to have adequately tested the potential gold sources.
