NEWS RELEASE
Provenance Gold Signs Definitive Joint Venture Agreement for the Drilling and Exploration of
its Silver Bow Property
Provenance Gold Corp. (CSE: PAU) (FSE: 3PG) (the “ Company” or “Provenance”) is pleased to announce
that the Company has signed a definitive Joint Venture Agreement (the “JV”) with Palayan Resources, Inc.
(OTC PINK: PLYN) (" Palayan"), to drill and explor e its Silver Bow property in Nye County, Nevada. The
companies believe the property hosts several excellent gold and silver exploration targets.
Under the terms of this definitive agreement Palayan will receive a 49.5% interest (the " Palayan JV
Interest") upon funding of an initial 20-hole drill program on Provenance's Blue Horse claim, within Silver
Bow property. Under the terms of the agreement Palayan will commit up to USD$450,000.00 to earn its
49.5% interest in the property by way of a Phase I drill program anticipated to commence in February.
Historically miners produced high -grade gold ores from veins on the claim. Provenance confirmed this
with surface samples that returned 293 g/t Au, 12.4 g/t Au and 10.2 g/t Au, respectively, and silver values
up to 785 g/t.
Rauno Perttu commented "We are delighted to have entered into this JV which will enable us to drill and
explore a strongly mineralized gold and silver system that is exposed on the surface for at least 500 meters
before it goes under a shallow alluvial cover. This wide mineralized zone occurs along a structure that we
have intermittently traced for more than two kilometers . We anticipate that our drilling will confirm
strong continuous mineralization beginning at the surface along a width of up to 300 feet and extending
the 1,500-foot length of the claim and beyond. We are excited about this program and believe it is the
start of confirming a large gold and silver system on the Silver Bow property , while also enabling us to
advance our White Rock property. This further helps to mitigate shareholder dilution while enabling us to
explore and develop what we feel could become two very significant projects."
Because of slight delays related to weather and scheduling of the drill rig, drilling is planned to begin in
mid-February.
The Company further announces that it intends to conduct a private placement of up to 3,000,000 units
(each, a “Unit”), at a price of $0.10 per Unit. Each “Unit” will be comprised of one common share of the
Company, and one common share purchase warrant exercisable at a price of $0. 15 for a period of sixty
months. Proceeds of this proposed placement will be used to advance its White Rock pro perty and for
general working capital purposes. In connection with the placement, the Company may pay finders’ fees
to eligible third parties that have assisted in introducing subscribers to the Company. All securities to be
issued in connection with the placement will be subject to a four -month-and-one-day statutory hold
period in accordance with applicable securities laws.

Rock property and Silver Bow property in addition to assay and other key exploration data @
