Rafael Gallardo, Senior Geologist of Minera Cascabel S.A. de C.V., who is leading the drill program, commented, "The targets of La Higuerita and El Arrayan mineralized zones host the same characteristics of mineralization and alteration as was encountered at the La Nueva Victoria target and all three zones are part of the Golden Corridor.
These two targets have strong potential to find veins of high grade values hosted in felsic dykes and permeable lithic tuff. We are very excited to drill these two additional targets."
David Coburn, CEO of Gainey, commented, "We are very encouraged by the success and drill results that have been encountered at the near-surface, La Nueva Victoria mineralized zone. As we continue to move forward with our Phase 1 drilling program on La Higuerita, we are most encouraged by the fact that the Company's El Colomo Project hosts a further 19, drill-ready, prospective gold-silver mineralized zones that Gainey plans on drill-testing in the near future."
El Colomo Property
El Colomo is a highly prospective, 187 km2 property with district-scale gold-silver potential located within the 'Golden Corridor' in Sierra Madre, Mexico. High-grade and bulk tonnage targets have already been identified through prior exploration and there are strong indications of continuity between La Higuerita, La Nueva Victoria and El Arrayan (at least 2 km in strike length).
97% of this 18,766-hectare project has not been explored using modern concepts & technology. All 21 mineralized zones identified to date are located in the central portion of the property and within a 1.5 km radius of each other.
Qualified Person
David Hladky, P. Geo. is the Qualified Person with respect to NI 43-101 at El Colomo.
