Midway Awards Construction Contract to Jacobs

Denver, CO US, November 13, 2013 /FSC/ - Midway Gold Corp.("Midway" or the "Company") (MDW:TSX, MDW:NYSE) announces an EPCM (Engineering Procurement Construction Management) contract has been awarded to Jacobs (NYSE: JEC) for build out of the Pan gold project in Nevada. Jacobs is also leading the detailed engineering for the project infrastructure. The majority of the overall engineering is complete.

"We are gaining momentum toward the construction of our first project," said Ken Brunk, President and CEO of Midway. "We have had a great working relationship with Jacobs throughout the detailed engineering process and we are confident we will experience the same in construction management. Jacobs will manage construction of the leach pad, ponds, buildings, ADR plant and other mine site infrastructure. They will provide the manpower and equipment needed during the construction phase as we assemble and ready the Midway team for operations. "

Pan Gold Project, Nevada
The Pan project is an oxidized, Carlin-style gold deposit mineable by shallow open pit methods and treatable by heap leaching. A Feasibility Study was completed in November 2011. It shows the NPV of the project is robust at a range of gold prices, ranging from $123 million at $1,200/oz gold to $344 million $1,900/oz gold. The IRR grows from 32% to 79% using the same gold price range. Both are after-tax figures (see press release dated November 15, 2011.)
