22.01.2018  |  GlobeNewswire

THUNDER BAY, Ontario, Jan. 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mexican Gold Corp. (the “Company” or “Mexican Gold ”) (TSXV:MEX) (OTCMKTS:SRXLF) (FRA:4QW1) is pleased to announce additional positive drill results for drilling recently completed to extend the high - grade dike contact mineralized zones at its Las Minas property. All holes returned significant mineralization, including 7.86 g/t Au Eq (3.91 g/t Au, 5.93 g/t Ag, 2.36% Cu) over 18.0 metres in hole LM – 17 – ED – 44.

The current drill results are for holes drilled along the east and west contacts of the El Dorado Dike Contact zone. The west contact zone has been delineated for over 360 metres along strike. The recent drilling outlined high- grade mineralization on the east contact zone over a strike distance of 140 metres. Both zones remain open along strike for expansion. Additional expansion and delineation drilling is scheduled to commence in early February.

Highlights from diamond drilling at El Dorado Dike Contact zones include:

Diamond drill hole LM - 17 - ED - 22.

    and 2.12 g/t Au Eq (1.57 g/t Au, 1.53 g/t Ag, 0.32% Cu over 18.0 metres
    within 1.48 g/t Au Eq (1.14 g/t Au, 1.04 g/t Ag, 0.20 % Cu over 30.0 metres

Key Points:

  • Drilling outlined high - grade mineralization on the east dike contact zone over a strike distance of 140 metres.
  • Mineralization occurs on both sides of the dike, with the west contact zone extending for approximately -360 metres along strike and the east contact zone 140 metres.
  • Both east and west dike contact zones remain open for expansion along strike.
  • Dike contact mineralization is significantly higher grade than the initial resource grade, with mineralized core intervals up to 36.0 metres.

Brian Robertson, President and CEO commented, “These high – grade drill results over significant widths continue to expand the mineral resource and increase the grade for the El Dorado/ Juan Bran zone. The expanded resource and higher grades will have a positive impact on an updated resource estimate. The discovery of the high- grade dike contact mineralization also provides a model for exploring additional dike contact zones that are known to exist on the property."

Assays are uncut, length – weighted average values.

Gold equivalent (Au Eq) calculations use metal prices of US $1250/oz. for gold, US $18.00/oz. for silver and US $3.00 /lb. for copper. No adjustments have been made for potential relative differences in metal recoveries.

About Las Minas

The Las Minas Project hosts near - surface gold - silver and copper skarn mineralization and high - grade gold - silver epithermal vein deposits. The project is comprised of six mineral concessions covering approximately 1,616 hectares (3,995 acres), with several small scale, past - producing mines and a number of untested targets.

The district is host to a large gold, silver and copper skarn system that has a production history that extends back to the Aztec era. The Las Minas diorite intrusive measures approximately 10 kilometres in diameter and underlies the Las Minas concessions. The mineralization controls and association with magnetite appear to be similar to the Guerrero Gold belt, which is the site of the Los Filos and Morelos gold deposits.

Information Regarding NI-43-101 Initial Mineral Resource Estimate

In 2017, the Company reported an initial mineral resource estimate of 304,000 gold equivalent ounces (Au Eq ozs) contained within 4,970,000 tonnes grading 1.90 g/t Au Eq (0.92 g/t Au, 0.59% Cu. 4.37 g/t Ag) in a Measured and Indicated category for the Eldorado/ Juan Bran and Santa Cruz zones , with an additional Inferred Resource of 719,000 Au Eq ozs contained within 10,304,000 tonnes grading 2.17 g/t Au Eq.( 1.08 g/t Au, 0.66 % Cu, 3.99 g/t Ag) (reported in the Company’s news release dated August 1, 2017, and the 43-101 report titled “NI 43 - 101 Technical Report Mineral Resource Estimate Las Minas – Gold – Copper project”, John T, Boyd Company, Mining and Geological Consultants, Denver, Colorado, USA, Report No “3830.001“ dated September, 2017, prepared by John J. Read, P. Geo., Q.P. and Sam J. Shoemaker Jr., Registered Member S.M.E, Q.P.) The report is available on SEDAR.

The El Dorado / Juan Bran and Santa Cruz zones remain open for expansion and comprise two of eight known mineralized zones at the Las Minas property.
