GoldQuest Acquires Drilling Equipment in the Dominican Republic
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Jan. 17, 2020 -- GoldQuest Mining Corporation (GoldQuest or the Company) is pleased to
announce that it has completed a purchase with Precipitate Gold Corp. (“PRG”), out of receivership/bankruptcy, drills and
associated equipment sufficient to assemble up to 5 operational man-portable diamond drill rigs at a substantial discount to
the assessed replacement value of the equipment. The entire inventory acquired in this transaction is currently domiciled in the
Dominican Republic (“DR”). The purchase will result in a 50% ownership for each company, and the equipment will be jointly
managed.
The drills and equipment being acquired are the same types of man-portable drills and equipment previously utilized by
GoldQuest and Precipitate in multiple prior DR drilling campaigns. It is therefore familiar to the Company’s technical teams
and ideally suited for any future drill program.
David Massola, CEO, stated, "We are pleased to have the opportunity to jointly acquire and own multiple drills and related
equipment at a reduced market value. The cost savings of owning the drills and inventory will avoid possible delays and
mobilization costs as well as standby charges typically associated with contract drilling. The equipment is already securely
stored in-country, thus avoiding potential future costs and delays often associated with importing drilling equipment.”
