Glass Earth Gold Limited (TSX VENTURE:GEL)(NZAX:GEL) ("Glass Earth" or the
"Company") announces that it intends to proceed with a consolidation of its
share capital on a ten (10) old for one (1) new share basis. The share
consolidation was approved at a Special General Meeting of the Company's
shareholders held on October 4th 2013. The consolidation remains subject to
acceptance by the TSX-V Venture Exchange.
Upon completion of the share consolidation, a total of 10,566,560 common shares
will be outstanding. (The name of the Company will not be changed as a result of
the Consolidation).
Strategic focus for Glass Earth Gold
Upon completion of the share consolidation and pursuant to the closing of
financing agreements currently under negotiation, Glass Earth Gold will resume
its exploration activities with the primary focus on the Wharekirauponga (WKP)
project in Waihi.
Technical work will be aimed at improving size and grade of the high grade
T-Stream gold-silver vein system (Central and Western zones). The exploration
team is encouraged by the high grade potential of the T-Stream system, as
reported in the maiden inferred resource of 260,000 ounces of gold at 6.1 g/t
and 390,000 ounces of silver at 9.3 g/t.
(Note 1). Resources by zone offer higher grade estimates (Central zone 6.6 g/t
Au, and Western zone 9.7g/t Au respectively, see table below), with significant
expansion potential.

(Note 1) The independent technical report, entitled "NI 43-101 Technical Report
on the mineral resource estimate for the Wharekirauponga (WKP) Gold Project,
Hauraki, New Zealand" was prepared by David Ross, P.Geo. Principal Geologist
with Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. Toronto, who is a Qualified Person under NI
43-101.
The objective is to expand the limits of these known higher grade veins, test
the selected targets for the presence of additional mineralization, collect
preliminary environmental background data, and conduct preliminary metallurgical
testing to assist the preparation of future Mineral Resource estimates.
Neavesville gold-silver prospect
Exploration activities for the Trig Bluffs project at Neavesville are delayed
until the negotiations under way with the local Maori population regarding
access are completed. Glass Earth Gold is satisfied with the quality of the
dialogue with the Maori population, though the process is slower than expected.
