Drilling to Commence on Boxxer Gold Corp.'s DOK Property

CALGARY, AB -- (Marketwired - June 30, 2014) - Boxxer Gold Corp. (PINKSHEETS: BXXRF) (TSX VENTURE: BXX) (the "Company", or "Boxxer") is pleased to announce that mobilization of all equipment and supplies as well as drill pad construction has been completed for the 2014 drilling program that is expected to commence in early July. The 2014 drilling program consists of approximately 2,000m of diamond drilling in three holes to test the two large areas of coincident mineralized and altered volcanic and intrusive rocks that exhibit positive chargeability and resistivity signatures.

The drilling program is permitted and fully financed by our partner Continental Precious Minerals pursuant to an option agreement dated April 14, 2014. The drill contract has been awarded to Tahltan Drilling Corp.

Mr. Jason Riley, President of Boxxer, stated, "We are excited to be commencing the drilling program on the DOK project to test the two targets that have been developed over the past three years. The size of the targets combined with the mineralization, alteration, geophysical signatures, host rocks and exploration results indicate the presence of a porphyry copper system on the DOK project. With the drilling anticipated to commence in early July, we expect to get a better understanding of the distribution of the surface mineralization at depth."


DOK Property Highlights;

The geology, alteration, host rocks and style of mineralization on the DOK property exhibits many similarities with other known large alkalic porphyry copper-gold deposits located in northern British Columbia such as the Schaft Creek deposit held by Teck Resources Limited and Copper Fox Metals Inc.


Technical Highlights

The exploration results for the two targets to be tested in 2014 includes:

- Widespread copper-gold-silver mineralization (with significant concentrations of molybdenite) hosted in volcanic rocks of the Stuhini Group as well as quartz monzonite, quartz diorite, and granodiorite intrusives; all of which exhibit strong potassic alteration,

- The mineralization in outcrop coincide with two large, copper-gold-molybdenum-silver soil geochemical anomalies and broad positive chargeability and resistivity signatures,

- The northwest drill target measures 2,000 metres long by 1,400 metres wide. The southeast drill target measures 1,500 metres long by 900 metres wide. The soil geochemical anomalies in both targets are open along strike. The metal concentrations within these targets range from 200 to 9,820 parts per million ("ppm") for copper; from 0.03g/t to 2.2 g/t gold; molybdenum from 14 to 135ppm and from 0.6g/t to 84.5g/t silver,

- Numerous mineralized outcrops containing medium to high-grade copper-gold-silver mineralization along with significant (< 100ppm) concentrations of molybdenum occur outside of the two targets to be tested in 2014, and

- Rock chip sampling completed within the northwest target during the early 1970s returned;
a) 0.66% copper over 38 metres,
b) 0.73% copper over 16 metres,
c) 0.32% copper over 25 metres.

The two drill targets to be tested in 2014 and the 81 copper occurrences located to date on the property occur within a prominent northwest trending, two kms wide by 10 kms long structural feature identified by an airborne magnetometer survey in 2011. The significance of this structural feature is not known at this time.
