Angkor Gold Acquires 2 New Tenements

Angkor Gold (TSXV:ANG), a Vancouver-based company exploring in Cambodia, said today that it has been issued two new exploration agreements from the Kingdom’s Ministry of Industry, Mines and Energy.

The agreements were originally Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) signed between the ministry and Angkor Gold in January, 2011.

As quoted in the press release:

Scott Donahue, ANGKOR’s COO, commented, “The decision to convert the MOUs to Exploration Agreements comes on the back of many months of baseline exploration by our team of international geologists. I’d like to thank them for all their hard work. Our regional geological database is growing very rapidly and is proving a very useful tool for our grassroots work and negotiations. We look forward to providing updates on the prospects and targets we’re already identifying within these new licenses.”
