    Lydian intersects new gold in step-out drilling in Armenia

    The company intends to complete a resource estimate on the
    newly-dsicovered area next year.

    Lydian International Ltd. (TSX: T.LYD, Stock Forum) said mostly
    step-out and exploration drilling at its Amulsar gold project in
    Armenia has shown promise for resource potential.

    Amulsar is a high-sulfidation style gold project, located in central
    Armenia, which currently hosts a CIM compliant resource of 68.2
    million tonnes at 1.0 grams per tonne gold, 2.1 million ounces, in
    indicated and 36.1 million tonnes at 0.9 grams per tonne gold, 1.1
    million ounces, in inferred.

    According to the press release, results have been received from an
    initial 18 drill holes at Amulsar comprising primarily step-out and
    exploration drilling from the Erato, Arshak and Orontes areas

    Notable intersections included 0.9 grams per tonne gold at 33 metres,
    1.0 grams per tonne gold at 53 metres and 1.5 grams per tonne gold at
    13 metres

    These results confirm the company's view that further resource
    potential exists beyond the current resource shell towards the
    southeast at Arshak.

    The company intends to complete a resource estimate on the area next year.

    Lydian is a gold-focused mineral exploration and development company
    with expertise employing "first mover" strategies in emerging
    exploration environments.

    On Monday, Lydian's stock was up 5.11% and was trading at 2.47 a
    share. The company has a market cap of $306 million, based on 123.9
    million shares outstanding. The 52-weeh high and low was $3.21 and
    $1.89 respectively.
