Black Dragon Agrees Deal with RMB to Buy Back Royalty

Black Dragon Gold Corp. (ASX: BDG, TSX-V: BDG) ("Black Dragon" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with RMB Australia Holdings Limited ("RMB") to buy out a Royalty Deed, which previously entitled RMB to a 2% Net Smelter Royalty on the first 800,000 ounces of production from Black Dragon’s 100% owned high-grade Salave Gold Project ("Salave"). Salave, in the Asturias region northern Spain, has a Measured and Indicated Resource of 944,000 ounces gold as well as a further 106,000 ounces in the Inferred category.

The Royalty Deed, agreed by previous management in November 2016 as part of the RMB debt restructuring, was originally structured to allow for a buy-out by Black Dragon with a cash payment of US$3,000,000 (C$3,843,542) to RMB. Black Dragon is pleased to advise that the Company and RMB have now agreed to a significantly reduced buy-out fee of C$570,000 (US$447,621), which was settled today.

Paul Cronin, CEO and Managing Director of Black Dragon commented:

"The buy-out of the Royalty Deed is another significant milestone in advancing the Salave project and clearly indicates our team’s confidence in future gold production from Salave.

"The buy-out of this royalty will have a significant positive impact on the economics of Salave, which will become clear to investors when we are able to release a Preliminary Economic Assessment later this year.

"The royalty buy-out continues the flow of positive news since Black Dragon listed on the ASX in August, and should continue with a pending Salave Mineral Resource update this quarter."
