• PDH-12033 returning 155m @ 0.46g/t Au and 0.72% Cu including 50m @ 1.52% Cu and 0.77g/t Au within the sulphide zone;
• PDH-12028 returned 45m @ 0.95% Cu and 0.17g/t Au within the sulphide zone;
• PRH-12159 returned 12m @ 2.80% Cu within a larger intercept of 56m @ 0.80%Cu and 0.11 g/t Au within the sulphide zone;
• PRH-12165 returned 11m @ 1.07g/t Au within the oxide zone; and
• PRH-12169 returned 15m @ 0.75g/t Au within the oxide zone.

Additional significant drill hole results are listed in Tables 1 and 2 below.

Table 1: New Copper Results from La Pava

Table 2: New Gold Results from La Pava

These results from La Pava demonstrate that step-out drill holes completed in the Southeast and central-North areas of the deposit continue to intercept oxide and sulphide mineralization. Of note, drill holes PDH-12032 which returned 54m @ 0.70g/t Au including 12m @ 1.34g/t Au from surface demonstrates continuity of mineralization in this northern area of the deposit. Drill hole PDH-12033 intercepted commercial grades of gold within the oxide zone and copper-gold within the sulphide zone. The sulphide intercept in this area validates the Company’s mineralization model for the deposit and represents a combination of the supergene enrichment and the underlying outflow zones.

Step-out drill holes completed in the S-E area of La Pava intercepted both oxide and sulphide mineralization as demonstrated by these results. Of note, drill hole PRH-12165 returning 11m @ 1.07g/t Au from surface and drill hole PRH-12169 returning 15m @ 0.75g/t Au also from surface.

Drill holes PDH-12028 returned 45m @ 0.95% Cu and 0.17g/t Au including 19m @ 1.40% Cu and 0.21g/t Au. Additional step-out drilling is planned in this S-E area to follow-up on these results.

Highlights from the drilling program at the Quema-Quemita Deposit are listed in Table 3 below.

Table 3: New Gold Results from Quema-Quemita:

Significant intercepts from step-out drilling to the south include drill holes PRH-12179 which returned 11m @ 1.00g/t Au and drill holes PRH-12174 and PRH-12161 which returned 23m @ 0.25g/t Au and 14m @ 0.40g/t Au respectively. These drill holes are located in the south-central area of the deposit and continue to yield gold oxide intercepts as drilling continues to step-out into new areas. Step-out drilling is ongoing to systematically expand areas on known gold resources.

Alain Bureau, P.Eng, Pershimco’s President and CEO commented: “Last month has been a spectacular month for drilling production, even being in the middle of the rainy season. Over 4,900 meters of combined RC and core drilling has been achieved in September. We are very satisfied with the oxide results coming out of the current drilling campaign increasing the mineralization on known deposits but we are sure anxious about getting results on the new targets indentified. The IP geophysics team is presently preparing equipments and will be starting in less than two weeks our priority targets. Meanwhile, an RC rig will be moved toward the first new target.”

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

Drill core from the diamond drill holes and cuttings from 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 diamond drill 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 microns, 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 2.5 g/t. The sample preparation protocol also requires that samples be dried at 125 degrees Fahrenheit just prior to crushing and also immediately before pulverizing.
