Press Release Source: Newton Gold Corp. On Tuesday August 23, 2011, 12:34 pm EDT
VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Newton Gold Corp. (“Newton Gold” or the "Company") announces that the Company has started field work on its wholly owned 9,700 hectare Chuchi Property located in central B.C. approximately 90km north of Fort St. James.

The Chuchi property is host to a low-grade porphyry copper-gold deposit. The property is located 32km northwest of the Mt. Milligan copper-gold deposit now owned by Thomson Creek Metals, and the Chuchi geology has been described in a NI 43-101 Technical Report authored by M. Rebagliati (2004) as "remarkably similar" to the 299 million tonne Mt. Milligan copper-gold porphyry deposit.

The work program will consist of 50 line kilometres of geochemical sampling over the core of the Chuchi porphyry – the area that contains a large magnetic anomaly and had received a bulk of the historical drilling (29 holes) on the property. The lines have also been designed to cover portions of historic soil sampling grids of BP Resources (1984) and Rio Algom Exploration (1990) that have consistent significant differences in results between the two grids.

The work program is expected to last three weeks with results to follow in an additional 4 to 5 weeks.
