AFYG Affinity Gold Corp (CE)

Affinity Gold Corp. (Pink Sheets:AFYG) ("Affinity" or "the Company") is pleased to release a corporate update regarding the Company's recent progress.

On July 8th, the Company issued a message from the CEO, Mr. Corey J. Sandberg, stating the goals he set to accomplish over the next 30, 60 and 90 days.

During the 30-day period from July 8th, Mr. Sandberg spent eight days in Peru, where he visited the Company's project site, held meetings with the Peruvian Ministry of Energy and Mines, conducted due diligence and met with potential candidates for joining the company's subsidiary.  

On August 9th, the Company announced that Mr. Oscar Frias, a highly-educated 30-year veteran of the Peruvian mining industry, had joined the Company as a Strategic Advisor. 

One week ago, the Company retained Andrew Barwicki Investor Relations to initiate a strategic investor relations program that will expose the company to institutional investors, broker dealers, and individual investors through road shows, conference calls and other traditional means.

"I am thrilled with the progress we have made so far as we have continued to drive the company forward in meeting our objectives," said President and CEO Corey J. Sandberg. "We still have a lot of work ahead of us, but as long as we continue to focus on the fundamentals of building a successful business, I have no doubt that we will succeed. We are making great strides in putting the pieces together for Affinity's revised strategic plan which will be announced in greater detail in the near future. In the meantime, I am continuing to focus on building the leadership team, building strategic relationships in Peru and elsewhere, and preparing the company for a re-introduction to the general public and investment community. "

Over the next 30-60 days, the Company is focused on continuing its efforts towards identifying and engaging key strategic partners, improving internal controls and procedures and making significant progress towards becoming current in our regulatory filings. Mr. Sandberg stated, "It's imperative that we become current in filings and demonstrate transparency to the investing public if we're to be successful in attracting long-term shareholders."
