GIG HARBOR, Wash., May 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- LKA Gold Incorporated (OTCQB: LKAI) announced today that it has engaged C. K. Cooper & Company (MEMBER: FINRA/SiPC) for investment banking services and to develop finance options for expanding the Company's current exploration program at its Golden Wonder mine located near Lake City, CO.

About LKA's Golden Wonder Mine
From 1998 – 2007 LKA's Golden Wonder mine was one of only two active gold producers in Colorado. During that period, the Golden Wonder produced over 133,701 ounces of gold with an average ore grade of 16.01 ozs. (454 grams) gold per ton making it the richest gold producer in North America.
Golden Wonder Exploration Program
Vein material is extracted as exploration crews follow the volcanic vent system along the wall of the Uncompahgre Caldera. This method of exploratory mining and underground drilling proved successful in locating the first commercial ore body which yielded more than 133,700 ounces of gold from a single ore chute measuring less than 10,000 square feet. Upon resuming exploratory operations in the first quarter of 2009, LKA has shipped twenty bulk ore samples containing more than 3,300 ounces of gold with an average ore grade of 1.44 oz. gold. Ore sales continue to fund, and exceed, the cost of LKA's exploration program. Detailed financial results were reported on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC earlier this month and posted on the Company's website at: http://lkagold.com. Investors are cautioned that additional exploration is required and a commercially viable ore reserve has yet to be established.
