Pinnacle Silver and Gold Provides Corporate Update and Grants Incentive Stock Options
VANCOUVER - (TSXV: PINN; OTC: NRGOF; Frankfurt: P9J) - Pinnacle Silver and Gold Corp. ("Pinnacle" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on corporate activities. As previously stated, the Company is actively engaged in seeking out new silver and gold exploration and development opportunities in the Americas, with particular focus on Mexico and Peru. Mexico is the largest silver producing country in the world and has more primary silver mines than any other country. Peru is the third largest silver producer and has the largest silver reserves and resources of any country.
Many projects have already been reviewed and due diligence is being conducted on select opportunities, including site visits, and management is encouraged by the quality of assets that are potentially available for acquisition. The focus is on high-grade underground targets, especially in Mexico where there remains some uncertainty regarding open pit mining.
"With the gold price now hitting all-time records on a regular basis and the silver price breaking through $30/ounce once again, now is a great time to lay the foundation for a new precious metals focused company," stated Robert Archer, Pinnacle President & CEO. "If successful, the addition of a high-quality asset in Mexico or Peru would significantly enhance our existing portfolio of gold projects in the Red Lake District of Ontario."
Depending upon the nature of a successful acquisition, management will determine whether to conduct further exploration in Ontario this year or defer that to next spring, while initiating field work on a new project. Shareholders will be updated accordingly.
