• Results of this last round include 32 drill holes, mainly Reverse Circulation, adding 3,333 meters to the ongoing exploration program;
• Present results originated from 3 drills rigs focused on the La Pava deposit and one drill rig positioned on the Quema/Quemita deposit;
• Total meters drilled for November were 3,403 meters, meeting drilling objectives;
• Four new drill holes completed in the La Pava deposit have confirmed continuity of gold mineralization outside of the current optimized open pit design. Three drill holes were located on the western and north-western areas and one drill hole located in the southern area which intercepted higher grade;
• Additional infill drilling confirms continuity of mineralization;
• Drill hole PRH-12238 intercepted 62 meters of gold mineralization outside of current optimized pit design at the Quema/Quemita deposit; and
• Pershimco now has an additional completed 19,955 meters of drilling which have not been incorporated into its most recent NI 43-101 report

Gold Oxides:

At the La Pava deposit, drill hole PRH-12221 returned from surface a long oxide gold intercept of 61m @ 0.86 g/t Au with silver credits at 5.03 g/t. At the Quema/Quemita deposit, drill hole PRH-12238 returned 62m @ 0.63 g/t Au with silver credits of 5.57g/t.

Copper / Gold Sulphides:

At the La Pava deposit, deeper drilling completed in PDH-12207 intercepted a sulphide mineralization which returned 17m @ 0.86% copper with gold credits of 0.18g/t. Drill hole PDH-12041 returned 31m @ 0.70% Cu ending in mineralization due to technical issues. This drill hole is scheduled to be extended.

Information generated by these drill holes are summarized in Table 1 below:

Based on the positive results of the 2012 field season, the exploration team is now planning the 2013 exploration and drilling program. Details of the 2013 exploration program will be announced shortly.

For the remaining 2012 field season, the Corporation will continue its resource definition drilling at the La Pava and Quema/Quemita deposits in addition to commencing the initial validation drilling at the nearby Idaida target. The surface rights have been acquired for two nearby drill targets (Idaida and Pelona) and the construction of drill access roads has initiated.

The Induced Polarization (Ground IP geophysics program) which commenced several weeks ago is advancing rapidly with 50% of the program now complete over the Quema/Quemita deposit and surrounding area. Upon completion, the geophysics team will commence the IP ground geophysics programs on the Idaida and LaPelona target.

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 prep 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 every 15 samples. 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 Activation Laboratories 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.
