LAKEWOOD, CO -- (Marketwire) -- 02/14/13 -- Colorado Goldfields Inc. (OTCQB: CGFI) announced yesterday that it has received a Preliminary Technical Report for the Champion Mine Project located in San Juan County, Colorado. The report was prepared in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 criteria. The Company provides the following amplification and additional information from the report.


History:

The Champion Mine is a consolidation of five previously operated mining properties established over the first 60 years of the district. It includes the Alletha, Champion, Hercules, Jennie Parker, and Little Dora mines. The Jennie Parker Mine, located on the Jennie Parker vein, was developed in the late 1870's through the Jennie Parker shaft and later through the Jennie Parker tunnel. After 1900, the Jennie Parker vein was mined through the Empire tunnel located near the base of Sultan Mountain as part of the Hercules Consolidated Mining Company. The mine ceased operations during the financial panic of 1907.

The Alletha Mine is located on the Alletha vein and was initially mined in the 1880's through the Alletha tunnel and an internal winze. It was re-opened in the 1930's and was mined through the Thunder tunnel located lower on Sultan Mountain in Deadwood Gulch. Ore was transported over an aerial tramway to an ore bin on a rail siding beside the Animas River. The Alletha was closed by the Gold Mine Closure Act of 1942.

The Hercules Mine, located on the Hercules vein, was developed in the 1880's through the Ricker shaft and later through the Ricker tunnel. In the 1890's, the Boston tunnel was driven lower on Sultan Mountain to access ore below the Ricker tunnel level. The Hercules Mill was constructed at the base of the mountain and received ore through an inclined surface tramway. Another lower tunnel, the Empire tunnel, was driven in the early 1900's to access ore in the Hercules vein. The mill was served by a rail spur to lower shipping costs to smelters. The mine ceased operation during the financial panic of 1907.

The Little Dora Mine, located on the Little Dora vein, was initially developed through the Blue Jay shaft, the Hawkeye shaft, and the Little Dora shaft in the 1880's. It was then mined through the Boston tunnel and still later through the Empire tunnel and below the Empire tunnel level through the Little Dora winze. The Little Dora Mine was closed during the financial panic of 1907, but was operated for a time on a limited basis in the 1950's.

The Champion Mine was originally developed in 1900 in conjunction with a copper/silver smelter located on the north side of Silverton, the Kendrick-Gelder Smelter. Ore from the Champion vein was transported by aerial tramway that connected the No. 4 Level of the Champion Mine to an ore bin located on a rail siding next to the Animas River.

The Pride of the West Mill ("Mill") is located 5.3 miles northeast of Silverton, Colorado. The Mill is located on approximately 120 acres of patented mining claims on San Juan County Road 2, within a nine air-mile radius of the Champion, Silver Wing Mine, the King Solomon Mine, and many other mine properties. The Mill is located within the famous "San Juan Triangle" mining center of southwestern Colorado, which also includes the historic mining towns of Telluride and Ouray, and encompasses one of the most richly mineralized areas of North America.

On November 2, 2012, the Company entered into a contract for purchase of the Champion Mine. The terms of the contract provide that the Company issue 24,000,000 4-year restricted shares of Class A Common Stock and pay $3,000,000 to owners for the purpose of consummating the purchase contract and other consideration. The Company will also pay the former owners a 5% Net Smelter Royalty ("NSR"), from the Champion Mining Claims. The complete purchase contract may be viewed in the Company' Form 8-K filed on November 6, 2012.
