VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - March 27, 2017) - Angel Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:ANG)(OTCQX:ANGCF) ("Angel" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on recent progress on Angel's geophysical survey program at its Guayabales Prospect, the second of the three prospects surveyed at our El Porvenir project located in the Segovia Mining District of Antioquia, Colombia.
"The Induced polarization data gathered at Guayabales is continuing to support and enhance our belief that our El Porvenir Project has the potential to host conductive sulfide bodies that may contain gold and silver mineralization. Two kilometers away in the district, high-grade vein-hosted mineralization is being mined at the Gran Colombia gold mine (Segovia project). We also have identified a type of mineralization previously undocumented in the Segovia Mining District: that of quartz-sericite breccia-hosted silver-gold mineralization that is intrusive related" says Stella Frias, President and CEO of Angel Gold Corp. "The chargeability geophysical anomalies identified at Guayabales, are coincident with surface silver-gold breccia hosted mineralization as well as to zoned multi-element soil responses, supporting our belief that these geophysical anomalies may represent the presence of blind or semi-blind bodies of sulfide mineralization. We have already determined from surface work that sulfide mineralization is related to silver and gold mineralization," added James Stephenson P.Geo, Vice-President of Exploration.
HIGH CHARGEABILTY ANOMALIES

Figure 1: Section 0+00NE showing response over known sulfide-silica breccia hosted mineralization, outcropping at 0+ 00 SE (grid origin), showing a relatively modest anomaly of 15 to 20mV/V. Note the open anomaly on the right-hand end of the line which correlates with the strong anomaly in the right of Figure 2 below.

Figure 2: Provisional Section 2+00SW - (INCOMPLETE, with surveying of the right hand end of the line in progress at receipt of data of this incomplete section). The section shows a very low background of around 5mV/V, with anomalies in the right of section of over 20mV/V and the anomaly in the left of section to over 100mV/V. The left hand anomaly appears to correlate at depth with the shallower weaker mineralization encountered in Figure 1 above.
BROAD MODERATE CHARGEABILITY RESPONSE

Figure 3: Provisional Section 2+00NE showing a broad zone of moderate chargeability (left half of section) possibly reflecting a disseminated sulfide halo around a mafic diorite body north of the section.
Conclusion
NOTE1: The accompanying "pseudosection" is a non-"inverted" presentation of results. The survey was carried out with a pole-dipole configuration progressing from left to right in the section, and by its very nature the method presents a leftwards slant to the results. No correction inversion algorithm has been applied to show the "true" position of the anomaly. The interpretation is done by matching the observed geology to the IP results. Mineralized bodies are inferred to be irregular but overall sub-vertical in orientation
NOTE2: A chargeability response indicating the presence of sulfides reflects the location of the sulfide-bearing body below the base of oxidation, and not the oxidized surface portion of the body. Thus for a dipping sulfide zone the chargeability anomaly will displace away from the oxidized surface exposure.
