Tres Cruces Project Receives Final Approval for Drilling Program and Begins Mobilization to Site

12.05.2022  |  Newsfile

Vancouver, May 12, 2022 - Anacortes Mining Corp. (TSXV: XYZ) (OTCQB: XYZFF) ("Anacortes" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on the upcoming drilling program at its Tres Cruces gold project in the prolific Quiruvilca Mining District in northern Perú.

The Company's wholly-owned Peruvian subsidiary, Aurifera Tres Cruces S.A. ("ATC") has now received the "Authorization to Initiate Exploration Activities" from the Peruvian Ministry of Energy and Mines (MINEM) which is the final approval necessary to commence drilling.

The site preparation and drilling contractors are mobilizing to site, and drilling is scheduled to begin the week of May 16, 2022. As announced previously, ATC selected ALS Global's Peruvian subsidiary, ALS Perú S.A., to carry out the assay services for the drilling campaign.

The initial drilling program will consist of 3,000 - 4,000 metres of core drilling, which will include infill drilling of the known oxide resource, metallurgical holes, and will test previous high grade intercepts that ended in gold and silver mineralization.

Jim Currie, CEO of Anacortes, commented: "We are pleased to receive this final authorization from MINEM, and are excited to be starting our Phase I Drilling Program next week. We are looking forward to testing holes that Barrick had drilled previously that ended in strong gold and silver mineralization, particularly Hole RTC-255, where the bottom 173.0 meters of the hole from 92.0 m to 265.0 m had an average grade of 3.12 g/t Au."

With a strong balance sheet, the Company is fully funded for this drilling program and its exploration and development activities into 2023.
