These promising surface gold-in-oxide results at Pitalloza were obtained with only limited exploration work and drilling completed over the Pitaloza Concession and Applications package. Initial evaluation of the historical database shows a promising potential for discovery of porphyry-style Cu-Au-Mo deposits given the following observations:
- Under explored property package over a large area (nearly four times the size of the Cerro Quema concessions), with comparable geology, structure and mineralization to the Cerro Quema Project.
- Located immediately west-northwest of the Cerro Quema concessions, and hence, within the same Cretaceous island arc belt of rocks.
- Exploration work to date identified several prospects showing exposed, high temperature, high sulphidation (HS) feeder structures with Cu-Au mineralization, which may indicate deeper near porphyry sources.
- Large complex batholith surrounded by multiple intrusive stocks and plugs that outcrop and sub-crop within volcanic belt rocks. Similar in geology and structural setting to the intrusive complexes hosting porphyry Cu-Au deposits in Panama.

Pershimco Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:PRO) (FRANKFURT:BIZ) is a mineral exploration and development company with a near-term gold oxide production scenario and a copper-gold porphyry target at its 100%-owned Cerro Quema Project in Panama. Cerro Quema's concession boasts paved road access, no indigenous groups and the most favorable climate in the country. Based on the results from an independent Pre-feasibility Study (August 2014), the Company's extraction-permitted gold oxide project has a pre-tax NPV of $165 million US with a pre-tax internal rate of return of 46.8% ($110 million US after tax with an after-tax rate of return of 33.7%), supported by great recovery rates (86%) and lowest quartile all-in sustaining cash cost of $631/oz. Led by a skilled management team with a proven track record of building successful operating mining facilities in the Americas, Pershimco's project is scheduled to be in production in 2016. Additionally, the Cerro Quema Project has proven to have significant exploration upside with resource expansion potential in over 12 oxide targets identified along a 17km trend as well as porphyry indicators along a 12km strike length that highlights the potential for a nearby copper-gold porphyry system. With strong shareholder support, Pershimco aims to achieve cash flowing status in the near term to continue uncovering the value of Cerro Quema.
