DURANGO TO BEGIN DEWATERING HISTORICAL TRENCH AT DIANNA LAKE SILVER, SASK.
Vancouver, BC / TheNewswire / August 08, 2017 – Durango Resources Inc. (TSX.V-DGO) (OTC-
ATOXF) (Frankfurt-86A1), (the “Company” or “ Durango”) announces that further to the news
releases dated May 2 and May 11, 2017, the dewatering of Pit#1 on its Dianna Lake Silver Project
in northern Saskatchewan will commence shortly.
As previously announced on September 6, 2016, Durango’s team was successful in locating and
mapping nearly all historical drill holes, pits, and trenches. In addition, several new silver, copper,
and gold -bearing showings were discovered during the 2016 reconnaissance program. The
program encountered high -grade silver and copper anomalies which were taken in channel
samples from the main zone of historic workings and grab samples from the surrounding areas.
Durango’s exploration crew is commencing the follow-up program for the wholly owned Dianna
Lake property beginning in mid-August which will entail further investigation of the anomalies
discovered in 2016 and will also include work on historical Pit#1 (see news release s of July 13,
2016 and September 6, 2016). In 2016, Pit #1 was flooded with water, however, b ased on
historical documentation, the highest-grade silver material was recovered from this historic pit.
Durango plans to dewater Pit#1, and the Company plans to fully sample the pit in the upcoming
exploration campaign.
Marcy Kiesman, CEO of Durango, comments, “ Durango looks forward to dewatering and
sampling the historical pit, and looks to verify the historically documented silver results of Dianna
Lake during the August program . Durango remains positioned for discover y at the Dianna Lake
Silver prospect in Saskatchewan and will provide further details on the results of the exploration
program as they become available.”

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 per ton silver, approxima tely 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.
