[{"type":"text","content":"VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - September 13, 2016) - Almaden Minerals Ltd. (\"Almaden\" or \"the Company\") (TSX: AMM) (NYSE MKT: AAU) is pleased to announce assay results from Almaden's ongoing exploration and development program at the Company's Tuligtic project, Mexico. Results from drill holes TU-16-463, 464 and 465, all drilled on section 10+550 East have been received. These results confirm the presence of a shallow dipping (\"SD\") zone of veining adjacent and outside of the January 2016 Amended PEA pit. In addition, hole TU-16-465 intersected what is likely a new zone of high grade veining immediately beneath the Amended PEA pit, while TU-16-463 intersected two new veins located roughly 100 meters north of the previously known vein system. The holes were all drilled from the same pad and intersected the previously defined subvertical Ixtaca North vein zone as well as the new zones of veining (see attached section and plan maps). Highlights from these drillholes include the following intercepts for the Ixtaca North Zone and new zones: Hole TU-16-463, SECTION 10+550 EAST Az. 330, Dip -30 Zone 22.50 meters @ 1.14 g/t Au and 19.3 g/t Ag Ixtaca North Zone Including 6.50 meters @ 3.31 g/t Au and 16.0 g/t Ag Ixtaca North Zone 15.00 meters @ 0.56 g/t Au and 72.3 g/t Ag Ixtaca North Zone? 3.50 meters @ 0.70 g/t Au and 113.0 g/t Ag New Vein Zone to North 2.58 meters @ 0.30 g/t Au and 349.8 g/t Ag New Vein Zone to North Hole TU-16-464, SECTION 10+550 EAST Az. 330, Dip -70 5.10 meters @ 2.45 g/t Au and 274.4 g/t Ag ? 20.70 meters @ 0.23 g/t Au and 88.6 g/t Ag ? 33.70 meters @ 0.84 g/t Au and 77.1 g/t Ag Ixtaca North Zone Including 4.60 meters @ 2.63 g/t Au and 330.2 g/t Ag Ixtaca North Zone 13.00 meters @ 1.90 g/t Au and 42.8 g/t Ag SD Vein Zone Including 2.70 meters @ 6.45 g/t Au and 116.9 g/t Ag SD Vein Zone Hole TU-16-465, SECTION 10+550 EAST Az. 330, Dip -80 12.00 meters @ 2.70 g/t Au and 114.8 g/t Ag New Vein Zone Including 5.50 meters @ 5.06 g/t Au and 219.6 g/t Ag New Vein Zone 13.70 meters @ 1.07 g/t Au and 26.5 g/t Ag New Vein Zone Including 0.70...
