EXPLORATION HIGHLIGHTS
The Company is pleased to announce the results of a 45-sample geochemical
program on its 70% owned Sarita Este (R egberg as to 30%) gold prospect in Salta
province, Argentina. The property is in the southern portion of Sierra de Taca Taca,
a mountain range formed of uplifted Ordovici an granite. The gold s howing is within
a few kilometres of the Sarita Este and the Taca Taca Cu-Au-Mo deposit’s western
claim boundary. This phase of the ex ploration program included mapping,
sampling and identification of areas of alteration that the 45 samples are taken
from.
The mean weight of the 45 sa mples is 0.78 kgs and the range is 0.50 kgs to 1.35
kgs. This phase of mapping and samp ling has upgraded the results for the
prospect. Previous geochemical surve ys were conducted by Cascadero in 2006
and 2012.
This sampling has increased the density of mineralization in most of the altered
areas that host the mineralization which extends over 500 metres east west by 800
metres north south. The showing is open to the north, west and south.
The samples are selected samples and are not necessarily representative of the
mineralization hosted on the showing.
Gold (Au)
The range of the 45 sample assays is from 0.014 g/t Au to 42.0 g/t Au and the
mean value is 8.880 g/t Au. Thirty-two (32) of the 45 samples are geochemical
analyses and as such the best practice is to use caution in using these samples
until an Au fire assay is conducted.
Thirteen (13) over limit gold (>10,000 g/t) were fire assayed (MA450). The range of
these 13 samples is from 10 g/t Au to 42.0 g/t Au and the mean is 24.954 g/t Au.

The range of the next thirteen (13) gold sa mples were geochemical analyses (ICP)
and ranged from 2.041 g/t Au to 9.672 g /t Au and the mean was 4.898 g/t Au. The
results of these thirteen (13) samples may vary materially from the results of the
geochemical analyses published in this news release and the reader should use
caution in using these values.
Silver (Ag)
The range of the 45 sample silver geoc hemical analyses ranged between 0.60 g/t
to 24.355 g/t Ag and the mean value was 3.910 g/t Ag.
Copper (Cu)
The range of the 45 sample copper geochemical analyses is from 0.055 ppm Cu to
3778 ppm Cu. The mean geochemical analysis is 0.078 ppm Cu.
It is apparent from surface observation and mapping that fire assays and
geochemical analyses suggest the presence of multiple gold be aring vein zones
and vein arrays with a gener al orientation of 060 o. The showing occurs in a broad
area of alteration including a Sericite- Clay-Limonite Zone and a Hematite Zone.
The range of the widths and strike lengths of the veins is unknown.
The showing appears to be gold dominant as the silver, copper, zinc and lead
geochemical analyses are low. The style of mineralization may have an Iron-Oxide-
Copper-Gold (IOCG) affinity.
The Sarita Este property is an early st age exploration project on which no mineral
resource has been identified nor has the ec onomic viability or technical feasibility
been established. The property has never been subject to a drill program.
All samples were shipped to Bureau Veritas, Mendoza for preparation and shipped
by then air freight to Bureau Veritas, Vancouver for 51-elem ent MA250 ICP. The
over limit gold assays were assayed by FA450 fire assay.
The Company is not a related party to Bureau Veritas.
