VANCOUVER, June 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ - INCA ONE GOLD CORP. (TSXV: IO, Frankfurt: SU9.F, SSEV: IOCL) ("Inca One" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that mineral purchases in February, March and April, 2017 increased more than 117% while mineral processing increased 88% compared to the same three month period in 2016.

February, March and April are the height of the rainy season in Peru. Typically flash-floods and landslides temporarily disrupt mining activity, causing transportation delays and a sharp drop in production. Particularly harsh torrential rains in Peru this year made international headlines, damaging the national economy. In light of the state-of-emergency flooding in Peru over the three month period, the Company still achieved an average throughput of 57 tonnes per day ("TPD") an increase of 88% over the same three month period in 2016, while gold production at Inca One's Chala One Plant ("Chala One") reached 2290 oz, an increase of 91% from the comparable February, March and April, 2016 period.

"Despite the unusual weather challenges, mineral buying and production increased early in 2017," confirmed Inca One President and CEO, Edward Kelly. "In fact we reached all-time company highs for these months, compared with rainy seasons in previous years."

The Company expects that mineral supply and gold production for Chala One will accelerate as the rainy season has ended, resulting in higher levels of production for the remaining months of 2017.

Private Placement

The Company will no longer be pursuing the Private Placement announced on April 6, 2017.
