Centenera Mining Corp. Files NI 43-101 Technical Report For Huachi Copper-Gold Porphyry Deposit, San Juan

The Company also announces that a previously announced letter of intent (see the Company's new release dated January 23, 2017), whereby the Company was granted the option to acquire a 100% interest in the Huachi Copper-Gold Porphyry Deposit (the "Huachi Project"), subject to a 2% Net Smelter Royalty ("NSR") to be granted to the vendor, has been accepted for filing by the TSX Venture Exchange.

Huachi Project Highlights

The Huachi Project consists of a central copper-gold porphyry deposit with a peripheral epithermal gold system located to the east. Centenera will initially focus on exploration of the copper-gold porphyry deposit and the extensive open ground to the west, targeting a large-scale, bulk-tonnage copper-gold porphyry deposit. The copper-gold porphyry deposit has been tested with a total of 7 historical diamond drill holes (totalling 2,011 meters).

Highlights:

• -All drillholes targeting porphyry style mineralization intersected copper-gold mineralization.

  -Majority of drillholes terminated in mineralization and are open at depth.

  -Several drillholes demonstrate increasing grade with depth.

  -Mineralization is open in all directions, in particular to the west and north where porphyry style alteration is mapped at surface and untested by drilling.

Drilling highlights include:

1 True width is not known. 2.Copper equivalent = Copper grade % x (0.795 x gold grade g/t), where the conversion factor of 0.795 is calculated by comparing the value of 1 tonne of copper ore (at copper prices of $2.20/lb ($4,850.16/t)) to the value of 1 tonne of gold ore (at $1,200/oz ($38.58g/t)) and assuming 100% recovery.
