VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - May 1, 2017) -Atlantic Gold Corporation (TSX VENTURE:AGB) ("Atlantic" or the "Company") is pleased to report assay results received from drilling programs on two gold deposits and a gold prospect: The Fifteen Mile Stream and Cochrane Hill deposits where resource definition drilling on 25m x 20m centres is underway with the objective of upgrading resources to measured and indicated categories, and at the Plenty prospect where previously reported high grade intersections are being drilled more systematically.
