WINNIPEG, MB / ACCESSWIRE / June 4, 2021 / Winston Gold Corp. ("Winston Gold" or the "Corporation") (CSE:WGC) (OTCQB:WGMCF) is pleased to announce that the necessary upgrades to the Paradine Mill Facility, near Radersburg, Montana, are nearing completion, despite staffing, material acquisition and delivery challenges.

Winston Gold continues to move forward with the goal of transforming the Paradine mill into reliable and efficient operation and repairs are expected to be completed by June 21, 2021.

"Naturally, with any re-commissioning activity, unforeseen challenges inevitably arise," commented Mr. Murray Nye, CEO and Director of Winston Gold Corp. "I must commend our staff at the Paradine Mill facility for their perseverance and dedication during this period. The overall advantages of renovating an old mill still significantly outweigh building and permitting a new one."

Work at the mill is now focused on installing critical new parts (delayed due to shipping issues), in addition to re-configuring and optimizing the floatation circuits. The following points summarize the progress achieved to date:

• Flotation room and circuit re-configured
• Tailings line and pump re-routed
• Pinion bearing on ball mill replaced and being installed
• Pressure switch for Knelson concentrator received and installed
• Ball mill lube pump installed
• Improved illumination installed
• Weir bars and sand gates on scavenger cells installed

The Paradine mill facility is being developed into a turn-key mineral processing plant," stated Mr. Joseph Carrabba, Executive Chairman of Winston Gold. "The mill lies in the heart of a region blessed with precious metal endowment, and the future value opportunities are significant."

Towards that end, Winston Gold recently formed a joint venture with Bond Resources (CSE:BJB) to test the near-term cash-flow viability of another past producer, the Hard Cash Mine. (Refer to news release dated May 13^th 2021). The Hard Cash property is located just 4.3 miles from the Paradine Mill and an initial drill program should commence shortly.
