TORONTO, ONTARIO, Jan 17, 2014 (Marketwired via COMTEX) — Xtierra Inc. CA:XAG +8.33% (“Xtierra” or the “Company”), announces that following its recently announced US$500,000 short term financing (announced January 7th and completed January 10th, 2014) the Company has prioritized all of its current resources on the completion of the economic study of its Bilbao project in Zacatecas, Mexico. A complete draft report is expected before the end of this month at which time the Company will review its future plans for Bilbao.
In accordance with its previously announced cost curtailment intentions, as a cash preservation measure and to eliminate a property payment, the Company has now relinquished its El Dorado exploration property in the Pinos district of south-eastern Zacatecas State approximately 80 kilometres southeast of Bilbao. The Company had not carried out any exploration work on this property since the second quarter of 2013.
