Almaden Drills Further New High Grade Mineralisation Within and Outside Amended PEA Pit, Hits 41.45 Meters of 1.52 g/t Gold, 117.3 g/t Silver Including 4.60 Meters of 6.68 g/t Gold and 565.4 g/t Silver

J.D. Poliquin, chairman of Almaden stated, “Today’s results once again show continuing expansion of the known high grade veins on the Tuligtic project. While we are now focussed on developing the Ixtaca deposit into a significant precious metals producer in Mexico, and are currently busy with engineering work and studies towards producing a PFS, this exploration drilling demonstrates additional resource potential both laterally and, because we are at the top of a fully preserved epithermal system, future exploration drilling will also test for feeder veins beneath the Ixtaca sheeted vein zone.”
