TORONTO, Sept. 17, 2013 /CNW/ - Atlanta Gold Inc.
(TSXV: ATG; OTCQX: ATLDF) (the "Company") announces that
in compliance litigation brought under the United
States Federal Water Pollution Control Act ("Clean Water Act")
against
the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Atlanta Gold Corporation
("AGC"), the U.S. District Court for the State of Idaho has entered a
Final Judgment memorializing AGC's payment plan for the Court
imposed
US$2 million sanction.
The Judgment required AGC to pay US$50,000 on or before August 22, 2013,
which payment was made by AGC. In addition, AGC is to pay
US$25,000
per quarter for the first year, with the initial installment due
on
December 31, 2013; US$75,000 per quarter for the second year;
US$100,000 per quarter for the third,
fourth and fifth years; and a
balloon payment in the amount of US$450,000 due September
30, 2018, at
which time the sanction will be paid in full. The penalty bears
interest at a rate of 0.1% per annum and will be secured by
recording
the Consent Judgment against AGC's East Amity Road property located
in
Boise, Idaho and by a security
interest, granted to the U.S. Attorney's
office, in four generators owned by AGC located on the East
Amity
property. The litigation is now closed.
Wm. Ernest Simmons, President and
CEO commented: "While this has been a
long and challenging process, we are very pleased with both the
outcome
of the favorable payment terms of the Judgment and the resolution
of
the water contamination issues. Our proprietary, innovative,
passive
water filtration system has proven to be the solution to the
water
discharge problems and could potentially benefit other mine
developers."
