Ascot Resources Ltd. (TSX: AOT,OTC:AOTVF; OTCQB: AOTVF) (" Ascot " or the " Company ") The Company today announces that the Company has learned that a statement of claim was filed in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice against us and certain other parties as defendants asserting various claims including alleged misrepresentations in our public disclosure relating to our operations at the Premier Gold mine (the " Action ").
