Chaparral Gold : Sixth Extension of Hostile Bid by Waterton

Scottsdale, Arizona, June 4, 2014 - Chaparral Gold Corp. ("Chaparral", TSX: "CHL") announces that Waterton Precious Metals Fund II Cayman, LP ("Waterton") has again extended, for the sixth time, its hostile offer (the "Hostile Bid") to acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Chaparral from June 3, 2014 to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on June 17, 2014. The offer price of C$0.50 per share and all other conditions under the Hostile Bid remain unchanged. As stated in Waterton's Notice of Extension of June 3, 2014 only 742,267 shares have been deposited to their bid, representing approximately 0.6% of the outstanding shares of Chaparral.

Nick Appleyard, CEO of Chaparral, stated "We are actively working to achieve a resolution to the Eureka smelter issue that should allow prospective bidders to move forward with value-enhancing alternatives, although there can be no assurance that an alternative transaction will arise. As stated in our May 30, 2014 press release, we disagree with the EPA's corporate successor conclusions and while we cannot control the EPA schedule, a mutual intent exists to explore the possibility of reaching an expedited resolution of the Eureka issue."

There is no change in the Board of Directors of Chaparral recommendation that shareholders REJECT the Hostile Bid and DO NOT tender their shares.
