WGE Holdings Acquires Additional Indonesian Mining Site

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 26, 2016 -- WGE Holdings Corp. (OTC:WGEE) today announced it has acquired an additional site to be operated in conjunction with its existing gold mining properties in Northern Indonesia.

The newly acquired mining operation, based in West Sulawesi, a province of Indonesia, has a reserve area of 10 hectares and utilizes heap leach technology through a series of smaller leach pads, which have a comparatively lower operating cost per ounce of production than the company’s existing leaching facilities. Production of up to 2.5kg/month from this new operation is scheduled to commence in October.

As recently announced, the company, to be renamed Consolidated Gold Holdings, completed a process of reorganization and integration following its acquisition of an established and operational gold production platform in South East Asia.

The company’s gold operations are located in areas with high-grade volcanic hosted ore deposits which stretch in an arc across the northern part of Sulawesi Province in Indonesia -- areas originally surveyed and exploited by Newmont Mining, one of the world’s largest mining companies.
