DURANGO REPORTS RESULTS FROM PROPERTY ADJACENT TO GT GOLD
Vancouver, BC / TheNewswire / March 15, 2018 - Durango Resources Inc. (TSX.V-DGO) (Frankfurt-86A1)
(OTCQB-ATOXF), (the "Company" or "Durango") is pleased to report the results from its reconnaissance
visit to the claims bordering GT Gold in the Golden Triangle of B.C.
As referenced in its news release of September 20, 2017, in the fall of 2017, Durango sent an exploration
crew conduct a first phase, grassroot s exploration program on some of its claims adjacent to GT Gold .
Thirteen claims were flown over via helicopter , and the team discovered some surface alteration
outcropping in an area called the “Grizzly” which is a claim of Durango located directly on strike, and west
of GT Gold’s Tatogga North zone.
Rock samples taken from the Grizzly area returned 26 ppb Gold (Au) in sample # 82277, 2.12 ppm (2.12
g/t) Silver (Ag) in sample # 82272 , 0.015 % Copper (Cu) in sample # 82262, and 0.010 % Copper (Cu) in
sample # 82270.
The Cobalt (Co) highest grades were 33.4 ppm in sample # 82254 and 26.5 ppm in sample # 82251. Cobalt
is strongly connected with Titanium (Ti), Scandium (Sc), and Vanadium (V) judging by statistically
significant nonparametric Spearman’s correlation coefficient. These elements are usually indicators of
mineralization and will be used when comparing with future assays on the property.
An extremely high grade of Mercury (Hg) of 810 ppb was reported in sample # 82272, as well as 680 ppb
in sample #82273, and 420 ppb in sample # 82265. Mercury can be used as an ind icator to trace for
mineralization, and/or fault systems and is expected to be used when comparing future assays on the
property.
Soil samples from the Grizzly returned 40 ppb Gold (Au) in sample # 314, 3.26 ppm (3.26g/t) Silver (Ag) in
sample # 334, and 0.01% Copper (Cu) in sample # 326.
The crew focused on the Grizzly area due to the ease of access ; however, a few samples were obtained
near the border of Durango’s claim located near the Skeena Resources Ltd.’s Spectrum-GJ project and
more precisely near Donnelly pit area for use as regional information. The results of these assays provided
anomalous gold (Au) values of 11 ppb in grab sample # 82299 and anomalous copper (Cu) 0.02 % in grab
sample # 82294. These grab sample anomalies confirm and correlate with the soil samples which assayed
32.6 ppb gold (Au) in sample # 359 and 0.01% copper (Cu) in sample # 371.
A total of 51 grab samples and 76 soil samples were collected from the two areas.
The results of the short program exhibit anomalous metals in the area, and therefore additional follow up
exploration work is highly recommended. Planning for additional exploration program in 2018 is
underway to further define local geology and gold and other mineralization targets on the property.
The project geologist has recommended g round geophysics (including electromagnetic, induced
polarisation and gamma radiometric survey), additional rock and soil sampling, and mapping of selected
areas as follow up work required in 2018.
Marcy Kiesman, President and CEO of Durango Resources stated, “We are excited to have a gold anomaly
next to GT Gold who hosted a very significant gold discovery in July 2017. It has been stated, always look
for gold in the shadow of a headframe, or in areas where gold has been discovered, and being so close to
GT Gold with excellent geology, positions Durango for discovery. Durango is pleased that our exploration
team was able to outline a gold anomaly and looks forward to completing additional work in 2018.”
