DURANGO COMPLETES PROGRAM AT DIANNA LAKE SILVER, SASK.
Vancouver, BC / TheNewswire / August 31, 2017 – Durango Resources Inc. (TSX.V-DGO) (OTC-
ATOXF) (Frankfurt-86A1), (the “Company” or “ Durango”) announces that further to the news
releases dated August 8 and August 22, 2017, the dewatering and sampling of Pit#1 on its Dianna
Lake Silver Project in northern Saskatchewan is complete.
Durango’s exploration crew has finished the follow- up program for the wholly owned Dianna
Lake property which began A ugust 18th and consisted of further investigation of the anomalies
discovered in 2016. The work also included sampling historical Pit#1 which was flooded with
water in 2016 and systematic sampling of historic trenches.
Durango’s team was successful in dewatering historical Pit #1 which hosted high grade silver grab
samples of up to 2,458 oz/t ( 76,452.34 g/t) Ag in the past. The crew also completed systematic
sampling of historical trenches in the area which hosted copper with historical results of to 1.6%
Cu.
52 channel samples from the various zones of historic workings and 63 grab samples from the
surrounding areas were taken for assay. All 115 samples have been sent to Ac tivation
Laboratories for assay.
In addition to sampling , the crew completed approximately 7 km of mag/gradient and 1 km of
VLF in the immediate area of the historical workings to help compare with historical reports in
the area to produce an updated geological map.
Marcy Kiesman, CEO of Durango, comments, “ Based on the historic information, the highest-
grade silver samples were recovered from Pit #1 so we are excited that our crew was able to
successfully dewater and sample the area. We hope to be able to verify the historically
documented silver results of Dianna Lake property during the August 2017 program and further
details on the exploration program will be released as assay results become available and
interpreted.”

About Dianna Lake Silver, Saskatchewan
Durango’s Dianna Lake silver prospect covers an historical area in which, from 1968 to 1969, two-
high grade, primarily native silver- bearing exploration targets of between 30,000 tonnes and
50,000 tonnes grading five to ten ounces (155 to 311 g/t) per ton silver, approximately 600
meters apart, were determined by trench grab sample assays, according to an historical
evaluation report composed for Comaplex Resources in 1980(1)*.
* Potential quantities and grades are conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration
to define a mineral resource, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being
delineated as a mineral resource.
