Standard Gold Holdings, Inc. Makes Progress at its Tonopah, Nevada Property

TONOPAH, Nev., June 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Standard Gold Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: SDGR) (the "Company") announced to its shareholders that the Company is making progress towards its operating goals at its Tonopah, Nevada property.

The Company is submitting its Nevada Department of Environmental Protection ("NDEP") Water Pollution Control Permit Application in July 2013. The permit will be for a 15,000 square foot processing plant to be built within the 40 acres of undisturbed land on the east side of the Tonopah property. The permit review is completed within One Hundred Eighty (180) days from the time it is submitted. During the review process, NDEP will look at the Company's environmental, reclamation, operation, safety, and closure plans to ensure that it meets NDEP's zero discharge standards. All mining operations are required to undergo this review process. The permit approval is tentatively scheduled for late 2013. Once the permit is approved, the Company may begin construction on the processing plant.

The Company anticipates that new construction equipment will be delivered to the site the first week in July. The equipment that will be delivered will allow the Company to prepare for construction that is scheduled to start in early 2014. In addition, the drilling and installation of monitoring wells on the 40 acres owned by the Company, which allow the Company and NDEP to detect any pollutants being discharged from the operations, is expected to start in the fourth quarter of 2013. The Company also expects the fabrication of gravity concentration circuits and leaching circuits to begin in the second quarter of 2014. The gravity concentration and leaching circuits are part of the gold processing circuits. The Company may either physically separate or chemically extract the precious metals during the gold processing circuits.
