Monarques Considering Various Ore Processing Scenarios for Croinor

QUEBEC CITY, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - April 29, 2016) - MONARQUES GOLD CORP. ("Monarques" or the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:MQR)(MR7.F) is pleased to announce that given the improvement in the gold price in recent months, it is considering various options for putting the Croinor mine project into production. In view of this, Monarques is continuing to assess various processing scenarios for the ore from the future Croinor mine, including custom milling and the option of acquiring the Beacon mill, for which the exclusivity period granted by 9265-9911 Québec Inc. expires on April 30, 2016.

"Given the improved gold price, Monarques wants to make sure that everything is in place to process the Croinor ore at the lowest possible price as soon as the mine goes into production," said Jean-Marc Lacoste, President and Chief Executive Officer of Monarques.

Monarques also wishes to announce the start of the siting study for the Croinor project power line. Work on the power line project will begin in the coming weeks, with project services provided by WSP Inc. of Val-d'Or.
