NuLegacy completes 70% earn-in on Iceberg deposit

NuLegacy Gold (TSXV: NUG; US-OTC: NULGF) is standing at a crossroads, after fulfilling its 70% earn-in on the Barrick property that hosts its flagship Iceberg gold deposit in Nevada. The Reno, Nevada-based junior discovered the Carlin type gold deposit on the coveted Cortez trend in June 2012, two years after it inked an earn-in agreement with Barrick Gold (TSX: ABX; NYSE: ABX).
