December 2015 QUARTERLY ACTIVITIES REPORT

INITIAL STRUCTURAL STUDY COMPLETED

On 27 November 2015 Scotgold Resources Limited (ASX:SGZ, AIM: SGZ) (Company) announced the completion of the Initial Structural Study and Database review on Scotgold's Cononish and Grampian Gold Projects. The study, as previously announced in June 2015, was carried out by Dr. Pablo Gumiel and Dr.Monica Arias, of Consulting de Geología y Minería, S.L.

Highlights of the report include:

• 6 highly prospective targets are identified within 2.5 km of the Cononish Gold and Silver Project;

• 5 further highly prospective targets are outlined within study area;

• The study has highlighted the Beinn Udlaidh and Arrivain areas in particular as having prospectivity at least comparable to the Cononish deposit and further exploration work for these is being prioritised accordingly; and

• The study also indicates that structural analysis will be a key tool for the identification of "pay shoots" within the Cononish deposit and therefore is expected to assist with future resource expansion at depth and along strike.

  Further work is now being planned to expand the collection of structural data and coverage of the prospectivity map regionally.
