DURANGO APPLIES FOR WORK PERMIT ON MAYNER’S FORTUNE, BC

Vancouver, BC / TheNewswire / May 16, 2018 – Durango Resources Inc. (TSX.V-DGO) (Frankfurt-86A1)

(OTCQB-ATOXF), (the “Company” or “ Durango”) is in the process of applying for a work permit for its

wholly owned Mayner’s Fortune Limestone project in northern British Columbia.

The property is located approximately 7.5km southwest of Terrace, BC along the Canadian National

Railway route between Terrace and Kitimat and hosts six historically mapped sub parallel limestone units.

Durango has received a preliminary report which includes a recommended drill program for limestone

unit #5 based on the lithological defined contacts between the limestone, the intrusive units and dikes to

prove up limestone tonnage and consistency.

Historical reports state limestone unit #5 is expected to host the lowest purity of calcium carbonate due

to the nearby dikes and intrusive units, however rec ent visits show that 62% of the samples taken are

composed by high purity limestone superior to 96.3%. Limestone unit #5 measures 1.6km long and

Durango is interested in determining the calcium carbonate levels at depth to gain an understanding of

the potential tonnage of unit #5. Once the drilling/bulk tonnage is completed both volume and quality can

be estimated for unit #5. Durango plans to drill limestone units #1 and #3 later as they are known to be

high quality and a generous size.

B.C. Premier John Horgan made an announcement in relation to a “final investment decision on LNG

Canada’s $40B-billion project, which would include a natural gas pipeline built from northeast B.C. to a

new terminal in Kitimat as reported in the Financial Post on March 22, 2 018

natural-gas-projects.

Marcy Kiesman, CEO of Durango stated, “Although it is unclear if the Kitimat LNG will proceed, the $40B

project still has as pulse, as the Canadian Press reported on April 26, 2018

https://www.castanet.net/news/Business/224860/BC-LNG-contract-awarded that the contract to design

and build the proposed $40-billion project was awarded to joint venture contractors Fluor Corp. and JGC

Corp. Durango’s limestone property is strategically positioned between Terrace and Kitimat with both rail

and road access which makes the potential LNG project very exciting.”

The technical contents of this release were approved by George Yordanov, P.Geo, an independent

qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The property has not yet been the subject of

a National Instrument 43-101 report.
