Compass Gold Corp. (TSX-V: CVB) (Compass or the Company) is pleased to announce that it will host a webinar and conference call at 11:30 a.m. E.T. on Tuesday, August 18th, to provide a review of the Company’s recent activities, as well as its plans for continuing exploration on its Sikasso Property in southern Mali.

Before the webinar, investors are invited to review the Company’s latest news releases (http://compassgoldcorp.com/category/news/) and investor presentation (http://compassgoldcorp.com/investor-presentation/).

Compass CEO, Larry Phillips, said, “Our field team in Mali has accomplished a great deal over the past year before the rainy season began, having collected a large amount of invaluable geological and geophysical data that continues to reveal the exceptional potential of our Sikasso Property. Based on our analysis of these results, we are anxious to begin an aggressive and sharply focused new round of drilling once ground conditions permit. We want to take this opportunity to provide investors with an exploration update, and once again, we will have our Director and Exploration Manager, Dr. Madani Diallo, and our Technical Director, Dr. Sandy Archibald, P.Geo, joining the rest of our management team on this webinar. We hope that you will either join us on this webinar or go to our website afterward to review the replay.”

The webinar is scheduled for Tuesday, August 18th, at 11:30 a.m. Eastern Time (US and Canada), and is to be recorded and available for later playback. Replay details will be available on Compass’s website following the call.
