(TSX-V: CLZ, DB Frankfurt: 3CC, \"Canasil\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that Orex Minerals Inc. (TSX-V: REX, \"Orex\") has awarded to SGS Minerals Services a contract for initial metallurgical testing on composite core samples from the recent drill programs in the southeastern region of the Sandra-Escobar project in Durango State, Mexico. The project is being advanced by Orex under an option agreement with Canasil announced on September 15, 2015. Phase-1 and Phase-2 drill programs for a total of 4,357 metres in 38 drill holes have been completed to date with all results already announced in news releases from January to May 2016. As previously announced, the consulting firm Mining Plus is in the process of completing an initial resource estimate based on the drill results to date, which is expected towards the end of July or early August 2016.  \n\nThe metallurgical testing will include bottle roll tests on five composite samples of varying head grades and at three separate crushing particle sizes. The samples will cover the grade ranges of approximately 50 g/t, 100 g/t, 150 g/t, 200 g/t and 250 g/t silver, and particle sizes of approximately 80% less than 75, 106 and 150 microns. Sample readings will be taken after 4, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours to determine leach time performance. The objective of this initial metallurgical test is to gain a preliminary understanding of silver recovery in the mineralized zone.\n\nCanasil President & CEO, Bahman Yamini, commented: \"The progression from completion of the first two phases of drilling in the southeastern area of the Sandra-Escobar project to an in...
