(TSX: WG; OTC-QX: WGPLF) (\"Wellgreen Platinum\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the completion of its Q4 2015 drilling and field work programs (the \"Q4 Program\") at its 100%-owned Wellgreen PGM-Nickel project, located in Canada's Yukon Territory.\n\nUtilizing diamond core and reverse circulation drill rigs, 5,169 metres were drilled over the Q4 Program, for a total of 9,005 metres completed in 2015. Drilling was undertaken in the Far West, West, Central, East and Far East Zones to test down-dip extensions to known disseminated mineralization, as well as extensions to areas of higher grade mineralization. Some of the drill core will also be used to gather representative samples of material from geometallurgical domains across the deposit for a metallurgical testing program that will commence shortly with XPS Consulting and Testwork Services, overseen by Eggert Engineering Inc., PF Wells Metallurgical Associates Inc., and Gems Unlimited Consulting Inc. \n\nAssay results from the drill program are pending. The results from the Q4 Program, along with those from the previous two drill campaigns detailed in a news release dated December 21, 2015, are expected to be incorporated into an updated geological deposit model. \n\nJohn Sagman, Wellgreen Platinum's Interim President & COO, commented, \"The Company is committed to advancing the Wellgreen project in a cost effective manner.
