/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES' NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES/

TORONTO, June 11, 2015 /CNW/ - Atlanta Gold Inc. (the "Company") (TSXV: ATG; OTC Pink: ATLDF) announces that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Atlanta Gold Corporation ("AGC"), has reached a management agreement with Mineral Point, LLC ("Mineral Point"), the general partner of Neal Development, LP (the "Partnership"), to begin exploration and test processing of surface mineralized material to be obtained from the Neal Property. The Partnership, a limited partnership formed under the Idaho Uniform Limited Partnership Act, as amended, was created to explore and develop AGC's Neal Property (See the Company's news release of April 7, 2015).  The Partnership has commenced work on the Neal Property and exploration and test processing is expected to commence by mid-June 2015.

Mineral Point is the general partner of the Partnership and holds one hundred and two (102) units of the maximum two hundred (200) units to be issued in the Partnership, with the limited partners to hold the remaining units. Certain insiders of the Company and other investors have expressed interest in subscribing for fifty-six (56) units for the total gross proceeds of US$1,400,000. A company controlled by Mr. Eric Sprott, 2176423 Ontario Ltd., has signed the subscription agreement to subscribe for forty (40) units for gross proceeds of US$1,000,000 and advanced the funds.  It is expected that up to an additional US$1,050,000 will be raised by the Partnership later in the second quarter of 2015 by the sale to qualified investors of up to forty-two (42) additional units at US$25,000 per unit.

Wm. Ernest Simmons, President and CEO of the Company stated, "This is an exciting development for Atlanta Gold Inc.'s shareholders, who have been patiently awaiting news about advancing the property development without dilution or debt. With a processing medium of water and gravity, recent test results by AGC and Knife River Corporation demonstrated recoveries greater than 80% of total gold - without the use of any chemicals. We tested and used centrifugal concentrators in series with a slurry feed consisting of water and minus ¼ inch (2mm) mesh solids for optimal recovery from four sources of material. The exploration and bulk sampling at Neal and the further processing research and development will advance AGC's knowledge of the recovery process medium to be applied at the Atlanta Project, where bulk sampling is expected to be undertaken later in 2015."

The securities of the Partnership referred to herein have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. persons except pursuant to an exemption from such registration requirements. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any offer or sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

About the Neal Property:

In June 2014, Knife River assigned certain of its rights and obligations under its five-year lease with the owner of the Neal Property, Daisy Mining and Land, LLP, to AGC. AGC staked an additional seven contiguous claims on Public Land that was open to mineral entry. Subsequently AGC assigned its rights to the Partnership.

Knife River will contract the production of the bulk sample and transport the mineralized material from the Neal Property to a location where it will be processed by AGC as the contractor responsible for the processing and recovery of desired metals harvested by the Partnership.
