Fire River Gold Corp. (TSX.V: FAU; OTCQX: FVGCF; FSE: FWR) (the "Company") is pleased to provide an update for the Company's Nixon Fork Mine, in Alaska. About Fire River Gold Corp.Fire River Gold Corp. is a junior exploration/development company focused on North American gold projects with a specific emphasis in Alaska. The company's management team has extensive experience in all aspects of project acquisition, exploration, and development and has over one hundred years of combined experience working in Alaska. Fire River Gold is publicly traded in Canada on the TSX Venture Exchange (FAU), in Germany on the Frankfurt Exchange (FWR) and on the United States' OTCQX Exchange (FVGCF). The recently acquired Nixon Fork Gold Mine in Alaska has the potential to be a near term gold producer. Management's objective is to make FAU a North American gold producer in the next 18 months. The Company is presently negotiating additional advanced stage gold projects in North America.Nixon Fork MineThe Company's main focus is the gold-copper-silver Nixon Fork Mine, Alaska, which was acquired in August of 2009. A former high-grade gold mine, it produced approximately 145,000 ounces of gold at a production average of 42 grams per ton (1.4 opt). This turn-key, mining-milling project is a fully operational mining facility that includes a 200+ tpd flotation plant with a gravity gold separation circuit. In 2008, a complete CIL gold leaching circuit was designed and purchased with approximately 60% installed to date. The mine also includes a fleet of mining vehicles, a self-contained diesel power plant, maintenance facilities, drilling equipment, an 85 person camp, office facilities and a 1.2 km long landing strip. "Mining and processing operations at Nixon Fork are fully permitted and bonded."2010 Re-evaluation Program in ProgressIn 2009 the company began a $1.25M evaluation of the project to confirm the status of the geological work, confirm both the gold grade from the tailings pond, and further metallurgical through testwork. The evaluation program is continuing into 2010, with key milestones including a determination of a go, no-go decision for completing the CIL circuit to process tailings in March/April 2010; defining exploration targets for underground and surface drilling commencing in May; the preparation of a new resource estimate for the property by fall 2010, and the determination of a go, no-go decision for the resumption of underground mining by the end of the year.Click HERE to view entire news release
