Advance Gold to Drill Below High-Grade Gold Vein with 1.70m of 9.46 g/t Au at Tabasquena, Mexico

Allan Barry Laboucan, President and CEO of Advance Gold Corp. commented: “Hole AGT-23 is now underway, it has been designed to go underneath the hole where we hit high-grade gold and cut across from west to east the entire corridor of epithermal veins. Initially, it will cut across a key fault which we believe could be the conduit that is the source of the gold and silver mineralization in the corridor of veins.”

Capitan Mining Drills 58 Meters of 0.94 g/t Gold Equivalent; Including 18.3 Meters of 2.04 g/t Gold Equivalent, at Penoles Project in Durango, Mexico

Capitan’s CEO, Alberto Orozco, stated: “The current drill program has continued to confirm our thesis that there is excellent potential to expand the size of the known resource at Capitan Hill. Results from the ongoing program continue to show wide intercepts of mineralization coincident with deep zones of oxidation, both down-dip of known gold zones, and also within areas of sparse, historic drilling along strike. We are excited to see that gold and silver mineralization continues to expand and remains open in all directions. This is indicative of how premature the maiden resource was for this project.”
