Lucky Minerals Provides Progress Report on Significant Ecuadorian Mining Acquisition

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, April 11, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lucky Minerals Inc. (TSX-V:LJ) (OTCQB:LKMNF) (FRA:8LM) (“Lucky” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that, further to the Company’s news release dated as of February 20, 2018, it is on track to acquire 100% of Goldmindex S.A.
