HVV Highvista Gold Inc

Highvista Gold Inc. ("Highvista" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HVV) is pleased
to provide an update on recent events at its Canasta Dorada project (the
"Project") in Sonora State, Mexico. 


AuRico Gold Inc. ("AuRico Gold") has commenced its first drill campaign on the
El Chanate Extension, which was recently optioned by Highvista to AuRico Gold,
as previously announced on June 28th 2013. The El Chanate extension represents
approximately 30 percent of the Company's Canasta Dorada gold project.


AuRico Gold has been working diligently to identify the best potential drill
targets on the El Chanate fault extension, and has recently completed a total of
five drill holes. Three of the drill holes were completed at the Caballo Pinto
target, with the remaining two holes being drilled at the Chanate North
location. AuRico Gold is expecting to drill an additional five holes by the end
of 2013, with the intention to drill three holes at the Alamo Muerte target and
two additional holes at the newly defined Chupurate area. "AuRico Gold has been
very active in the optioned portion of the project, and have done extensive rock
chip sampling prior to the initial drill program, collecting approximately 400
samples. This current drill campaign should total approximately 3,000 meters,
and assay results from the current drill campaign are expected in the first
quarter of 2014." stated Rick Adams, president and CEO of Highvista Gold.


As previously announced on June 28th 2013, AuRico Gold and Highvista signed an
Option and joint venture agreement where AuRico Gold subscribed for 4,815,000
common shares of the Company and 2,407,500 Warrants. This represents
approximately 12.07% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company
on an undiluted basis, or approximately 17.08% on a partially diluted basis,
assuming full exercise of the 2,407,500 Warrants. Through the Option and JV
agreement AuRico Gold has the option to earn a 51% undivided interest in the El
Chanate Extension current owned by Higvista's Mexican subsidiary. AuRico Gold
must incur an aggregate of $3 million in exploration expenditures on the El
Chanate Extension property over the next 3 years. AuRico Gold also has the
option to earn an additional 19% interest in the joint venture by funding the
preparation to a feasibility study on the El Chante Extention. 


Alternate targets on the western portion of the Canasta Dorada project are also
being considered for further exploration by Highvista. The H2 target has limited
historical drilling and is viewed by the company as being a high priority
target. Pending financing, a further drill campaign will be developed.
