Alacer Gold Announces First Quarter Mine Production of 100,290 Ounces and Increased Production Guidance

TORONTO, April 19, 2012 /CNW/ - Alacer Gold Corp. ("Alacer") (TSX: ASR) (ASX: AQG) is pleased to announce first quarter 2012 mine production for its operations in Turkey and Australia. First quarter 2012 financial statements and the related management's discussion and analysis are planned to be released on May 15, 2012 (North America) and May 16, 2012 (Australia).

First Quarter 2012 Highlights

• First quarter gold production totalled 100,290 ounces (attributable: 91,377 ounces) which was 12% less than the gold production of 113,861 ounces achieved in Q4 2011.
• First quarter gold sold totalled 107,835 ounces (attributable: 97,857 ounces).
• Çöpler Gold Mine gold production decreased to 44,564 ounces (attributable: 35,651 ounces) for the quarter compared to Q4 2011. Lower gold production was a result of challenging winter weather conditions, heavy snow fall and lower crusher throughput.
• Despite lower first quarter production than planned, management is increasing 2012 production guidance for Çöpler to between 195,000 and 200,000 ounces, and overall to between 435,000 and 450,000 ounces, each on a 100% basis.
• Development of Çöpler's Marble and Main Pits commenced during the quarter following the relocation of all the residents from the old Çöpler village.
• Gold production from the Higginsville Operations was 33,329 ounces for the quarter as a crusher failure reduced throughput and processing of high-grade Trident ore towards the end of the quarter.
• Ore mined from Trident was 250,066 tonnes for the quarter and productivity was near all-time highs not seen since the early days of mining the Trident orebody in 2008.
• Chalice underground mine development is on schedule for ore production to ramp-up over 2H 2012.
• At the South Kalgoorlie Operations ("SKO") production increased to 22,397 ounces of gold for the quarter, due to increased mill throughput from stockpiles and new open-pit ore sources.
• Resources and Reserves as at December 31, 2011:
• Çöpler Measured and Indicated Resources increased to 7.3 million ounces (100% basis).
• Higginsville Proven and Probable Reserves increased by 23% to 875,000 ounces (100% basis).
• Frog's Leg Proven and Probable Reserves increased by 36% to 385,000 ounces (Alacer's 49% share).
• Alacer's attributable Proven and Probable Reserves total 5.3 million ounces.
• Alacer's attributable Measured and Indicated Resources total 10.5 million ounces and attributable Inferred Resources total 3.4 million ounces.

Edward Dowling, President and CEO of Alacer, stated "Our active exploration program continues to bear fruit and during the quarter we announced increased resources for Çöpler, increased reserves for Higginsville and increased resources and reserves for Frog's Leg. Our teams have responded well to a challenging quarter for our Çöpler and Higginsville operations. This work has laid the foundations for quarterly gold production to increase over the course of 2012. The Çöpler 2012 mine plan has now been revised based on the recently updated resource model.  Total gold production for 2012 is now forecast to increase to between 435,000 and 450,000 ounces on a 100% basis for the mines which we operate or 396,000 to 410,000 ounces on an attributable basis."

Revised 2012 Gold Production Guidance

As foreshadowed when the updated Çöpler Mineral Resource estimate was announced during the quarter, the increased grades in the new resource model have enabled the Çöpler 2012 mine schedule to be revised. Çöpler is now forecast to produce 195,000 to 200,000 ounces of gold during 2012 (previously 180,000 to 190,000 ounces). The guidance for Alacer's other operations remain the same.

	Previous Guidance 2012 Gold Production ('000 ounces)	Revised Guidance 2012 Gold Production ('000 ounces)
Çöpler	180 to 190	195 to 200
Higginsville	150 to 155	150 to 155
SKO - Frog's Legs^1	50 to 53	50 to 53
SKO - Other	40 to 42	40 to 42
Total	420 to 440	435 to 450
Total - Attributable^2	384 to 402	396 to 410

	^1	South Kalgoorlie Operations include Alacer Gold's 49% share of gold from the Frog's Legs Mine.
	^2	Attributable gold production reflects 80% ownership of Çöpler.

Increased Çöpler production is forecast to lift total gold production to 435,000 to 450,000 ounces (attributable: 396,000 to 410,000 ounces) for 2012.

Updated cost guidance for 2012 is planned to be released with the first quarter management discussion and analysis in mid-May.

Gold produced	(oz)	33,296	41,122	53,200	57,800	44,564

	^1	Çöpler achieved commercial production effective April 1, 2011.
	^2	Gold recovery rate is indicative of the modeled recovery of material placed during the current quarter.

• Çöpler gold production decreased by 23% to 44,564 ounces (attributable: 35,651 ounces) for the quarter (Q4: 57,800 ounces). Gold adsorbed during the first quarter was 48,080 ounces.
• Very low temperatures and abnormally high snow falls during the first half of the quarter adversely impacted the performance of the mining fleet, crushing circuit and leaching rates.
• Development of the Marble and Main Pits commenced during the quarter following the relocation of all the residents from the old Çöpler village.
• The Manganese Pit provided 1,560,020 tonnes of ore during the quarter.
• Initial ore was mined from the Marble Pit in February 2012 which provided 204,660 tonnes of ore during the quarter.
• The head grade of 1.69g/t gold for the quarter (Q4: 1.70g/t) reflects ore mining from the lower elevations of the Manganese Pit. Ore processed through the crushing and agglomeration circuit was temporarily impacted by a fire in February 2012, which damaged one of two tertiary crusher screens.  A by-pass system was quickly implemented to maintain production levels. A new screen is planned to be operational in June 2012, and the circuit should then consistently achieve at least the design throughput of 15,500 tonnes per day. Recent crushing throughput rates are operating at design capacity.
• A total of 932,523 tonnes at 1.79g/t gold were crushed during the quarter (Q4: 1,085,261 tonnes crushed).
• Run-of-mine ore placed directly on the heap-leach pad totalled 844,036 tonnes at 1.58g/t gold (Q4: 854,618 tonnes).
• Çöpler's gold recoveries are estimates based on the modeled ultimate recovery of ore placed on the heap-leach pads (rather than actual recovery for the period).  The estimated Q1 gold recovery of 57.9% reflects:
• the impact of the crusher fire leading to an increased proportion of run-of-mine ore and the screen absence resulting in coarser crushed ore; and
• the ore types being mined in the Marble Pit and at deeper levels in the Manganese Pit.
• An updated Çöpler Mineral Resource estimate was released during the quarter with increased Measured and Indicated Resources totalling 7.3 million ounces (100% basis) as well as increased gold grades for oxide and sulfide mineralization.

Higginsville Gold Operations (100% owned)

Higginsville Gold Operations		Q1 2011	Q2 2011	Q3 2011	Q4 2011	Q1 2012
Ore treated	(tonnes)	331,126	329,950	318,752	349,927	332,299

Gold produced	(oz)	36,123	40,919	35,018	34,263	33,329

• Higginsville gold production totalled 33,239 ounces of gold for the quarter (Q4: 34,263 ounces).
• Ore throughput of 332,299 tonnes for the quarter was similar to the previous quarter (Q4: 349,927 tonnes). However, gold production was impacted near the end of the quarter by a bearing failure in the primary crusher, which required a 4.5-day change-out, and reduced the throughput of high-grade Trident ore.
• The head grade of 3.23g/t gold for the quarter (Q4: 3.13g/t) was less than planned due to processing low-grade stockpiles during the primary crusher change-out period and lower than planned grades from Athena Lode ore.
• Ore mined from Trident and Vine Pit totalled 297,419 tonnes, the highest quarterly ore production since commencement of the Higginsville Gold Operations.
• Surface stockpiles at the end of March 2012, included Trident high-grade ore totalling 17,000 tonnes at 3.3g/t gold and Vine Pit ore totalling 16,000 tonnes at 0.9g/t gold.
• Ore delivered from the Trident underground mine increased by 6% to 250,066 tonnes (Q4: 236,971 tonnes) and with an average grade of 4.2g/t gold for the quarter (Q4: 4.1g/t).  This is the highest productivity achieved since the early days of mining Trident.
• The Trident decline reached the 708RL at the end of the quarter.
• Testing of the gap in drilling between the Helios and Artemis Lodes has commenced from the 744RL underground drill platform as well as infill drilling of these deeper lodes in preparation for 2013 mine planning.
• Development of the Chalice underground mine focussed on the declines, drill platform development and surface infra-structure construction. Chalice is scheduled to deliver 110,000 tonnes of ore to the plant during H2 2012. Mining of development ore from the Atlas Lode is planned to commence in Q3 2012 and stoping ore in Q4 2012.  The Atlas decline is approximately 95m away from the orebody.
• Infill drilling of the Atlas Lode was successfully completed, with extensional drilling currently focussed on the previously sparsely drilled area between Atlas and the deeper Olympus Lode.
• Mining of the Vine Pit is planned to continue during Q2 2012 and then open-pit ore is planned to be sourced from the Fairplay Pit during H2 2012.
• An updated Higginsville Mineral Reserve estimate was released during the quarter with Proven and Probable Reserves increasing by 23% to 875,000 ounces (100% basis).

• Gold production from the South Kalgoorlie Operations (including Frog's Leg ore) increased to 22,397 ounces for the quarter (Q4: 21,798 ounces).
• Gold production from processing Frog's Leg underground ore increased to 13,590 ounces (Q4: 13,014 ounces) and from processing South Kalgoorlie open-pit ore increased to 8,807 ounces (Q4: 8,784 ounces).
• Ore throughput at 325,626 tonnes for the quarter was 5% higher compared to the previous quarter (Q4: 309,654 tonnes).  The increase in throughput resulted from optimising the mill blend from multiple new ore sources.
• The Jubilee plant head grade was 2.34g/t gold for the quarter (Q4: 2.38g/t).
• Alacer's 49% share of ore from the Frog's Leg Mine contributed a total of 73,800 tonnes (Q4: 94,657 tonnes) at an average grade of 5.8g/t gold (Q4: 5.3g/t).  The 22% reduction in ore production resulted from various operational issues.
• Ore production from the Triumph and Pernatty Pits contributed a total of 144,339 tonnes at 1.2g/t gold during the quarter and these pits will continue to provide ore for the remainder of 2012.
• Processing of stockpiled ore totalled 144,874 tonnes at 1.2g/t gold during the quarter.
• Following  ongoing reserve evaluation work relating to the SKO Expansion Project, a decision has been made to suspend mining of the HBJ Stage 3 Pit in order to align planned ore production with an optimized mine plan and processing capacity.
• An updated Frog's Leg Mineral Reserve estimate was released during the quarter with Proven and Probable Reserves increasing by 36% to 385,000 ounces (Alacer's 49% share) at a grade of 5.8g/t gold.
