The 147 meter oxide intercept also includes 31m of near surface higher grade @ 2.53 g/t Au from 11 meters down to 42 meters. As the drill hole passes through the Sulphide Zone commencing at a depth of 147 meters, the average grade is 0.60g/t Au and 0.56% Cu on the subsequent 120 meters including 10m @ 2.97% Cu. Please refer to Figure 1 for drill hole location. Tables 1 and 2 below summarize these results.

Alain Bureau, P.Eng, Pershimco’s President and CEO commented: “We are excited about these results and this week we have brought back from the field various boxes of visually similar sulphides in drill core from holes just completed. Drill hole PDH-11014 was completed within the La Pava deposit area after the company’s geology team continued its drilling efforts focusing on the Induced Polarization (IP) geophysics anomaly, in addition to a better understanding and interpretation of the deposit from previous mineralized intercepts. We expect to release additional similar results this fall.”

In parallel to the ongoing drilling at La Pava, the Corporation is also drilling at its Quema and Quemita deposits as part of its oxide resource definition drilling program.

New results from recent drilling at the Quema and Quemita deposit areas are listed below in Table 3. Please refer to Figure 2 for drill hole locations.

Table 3: New Gold Results From Quema-Quemita:

Similar to the La Pava deposit, the Corporation has also intercepted copper sulphide mineralization beneath the oxide caps at its Quema and Quemita deposts. Additional exploration work is underway including interpretation of geophysical data in order to increase the understanding of the sulphides potential under both the Quema and Quemita deposits.

The Cerro Quema sample preparation protocol related to the hygroscopic fine material has proven successful and has been fully accepted by the Corporation and its independent QP. The procedures put in place in the preparation laboratory include a two-stage drying process to counter effect the high humidity present at the project. The re-assaying program on previous samples is now nearing completion and the Corporation expects to receive these results in the upcoming days. The receipt of these last re-assay results will allow the Corporation to complete the update of the global resources estimate.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control (“QA/QC”)

Drill core from the diamond and Reverse Circulation (RC) drill holes are transported by Pershimco technical personnel from the drill site to the core and sample preparation facility on site. Once there, geologists and qualified technicians log, sample tag and half-split the core in 1 meter lengths using stationary saws. Individual sampled meter intervals of split core and RC chips are then put in tagged and sealed plastic bags with a standard, duplicate and blank inserted at regular intervals. The prepared samples are then sent to the Activation Laboratories (Actlabs) sample preparation facilities in Panama. Individual samples are inventoried by Actlabs personnel, dried, finely crushed to 70% at <2 mm, then pulverized to 85% at <75 μm and riffle-split to 150 grams. Prepared samples are then placed into sealed 5-gallon plastic containers and shipped by courier services to the Actlabs’ main facilities in Ancaster (Ontario, Canada) for assaying using a multi-element ICP method and fire assay method with atomic absorption finish for Gold, Silver and Copper. Over limit assays are done on samples with results greater than to 2.5 g/t. The new protocol also includes that samples be dried at 125 degree Fahrenheit just before crushing and also immediately before pulverizing.
