Mexus Gold US: Martha Elena/Julio Project and 2015 Update

Mexus Gold US gave an update on its flagship property and its plans for 2015. For the past several months, Mexus has been in discussions with multiple companies on the potential to joint venture the project. Unfortunately, the offers that were received fell short of what the company and shareholders would expect. These offers, if accepted, would have tied the property up for years while the partner company did exploratory drilling with an unknown timeline on production. In addition, the initial investment being asked by Mexus was not being met. Mexus will continue to be open to any joint venture possibilities that arise.
