Lumina Gold Receives EIS Approval For C20 Concession

VANCOUVER, BC, Feb. 1, 2021 /CNW/ - Lumina Gold Corp. (TSXV: LUM) (OTCQX: LMGDF) (the "Company" or "Lumina") is pleased to announce that it has received approval for its Environmental Impact Study ("EIS") on the C20 concession that contains the western portion of the Cangrejos deposit and the entire Gran Bestia deposit. The EIS on the 779 hectare C20 concession will allow for unlimited step-out, infill and expansion drilling beyond the prior work under the Scout Drilling Regime. Lumina already had a valid Environmental Impact Study on the 3,498 hectare original Cangrejos concession and the two EIS's together cover both existing deposits at the project.

Lumina is currently reorganizing its concession package in order to streamline permitting and development of the Cangrejos and Gran Bestia deposits, which previously straddled multiple concessions. These EIS permits will carry over to allow work on the new 4,999 hectare main concession.
