Cameron King, Vangold CEO states, “This historic Phase One drill program is the first step in quantifying our assets, providing real time grade and quantity of AuEq ounces attributed to the stockpile. The core samples will provide confirmation of El Pinguico’s high grade historical production and support the earlier geological work, where trenching sample assays exceed in some areas, grades in the range of 15 g/t gold and 1,400 g/t silver. Upon completion of Phase One drilling, the core assays will significantly contribute with the 43-101 resource calculation and value of the UG stockpile.”

“We are excited by the grades and widths returned by Hole 7”, stated Stephen Maynard, VP Exploration of Minaurum. “As only the second hole ever drilled outside of the historic core of the district, it confirms our “piano-key” structural model and opens the door for drilling throughout the nearly untouched down-dropped blocks located on both sides of the up-thrown La Quintera-Promontorio block. With these results, we have now encountered significant mineralization in every target drilled in our initial drill program including; Minas Nuevas, Promontorio, Nueva Europa, Gap, and Europa-Guadalupe.”

Fred Davidson, CEO, stated, “With these drill results we continue to successfully extend the San Ramon mineralizing system which is larger at depth than near surface. These results along with some historic holes, extends the mineralization 250 meters south of existing mine workings and 200m vertically up-dip representing potential additional mining areas for the San Ramon Mine. We have two underground drill stations almost ready from which we will test the further extension of the zone to depth and to the south.”

Charles Funk, VP of New Opportunities and Exploration commented, “That every trench displayed gold mineralization at such an early stage of exploration at Cuale is very encouraging. The reconnaissance trenching was undertaken in a core triangular area at the hilltop measuring 300 metres by 300 metres where strongly developed silicification correlates with high grades up to 48.5 g/t gold. Evrim is currently planning a follow-up program that includes further trenching and geophysics.”
