Executive Commentary on Newman Gold Project Tenure Acquisition

The acquisition of these three tenements as well as the seven tenements recently acquired from FMG further consolidates Peregrine Gold's tenure at our Newman Gold Project, totaling approximately 1,060 square kilometres of highly prospective ground. The exploration undertaken by Peregrine Gold over the last few years has confirmed that the northern portion of the Sylvania Dome is prospective for high-grade gold mineralization. A geological review of past work completed over these three tenements will commence immediately. - George Merhi, Technical Director of Peregrine
