Results include a value of 43.9 g/t Au from a quartz vein on the Evelyn property.\nThe field work on the Evelyn and El Mesquite properties was completed in parallel with on-going project data compilation and interpretation.  The objective of the on-going surface exploration programs is to advance both properties to the exploration drilling stage.\nEvelyn\nThe Evelyn property is located in northern Sonora, within the Caborca Gold Belt of the Sonora Megashear. The Caborca Gold Belt includes the Noche Buena Mine (167,200 ounces Au produced in 2018) located approximately 9 km southwest of Evelyn and La Herradura Mine (474,200 ounces Au produced in 2018) which is located approximately 30 km to the west of Evelyn.   Geological mapping completed by Company geologists confirm that the Evelyn property hosts Orogenic-type lode Au mineralization.  Mineralization consists of gold bearing quartz veins hosted by sheared and altered sedimentary rocks. \nSampling at Evelyn was aimed at determining the Au concentrations of veins, strongly sheared and altered host rocks proximal to the veins, and weakly altered host rocks more distal from vein mineralization.  Thirteen grab samples were collected and analyzed for Au.  Eleven samples were collected from the main showing and two samples were collected from an area of sub-crop located approximately 55 metres from the main showing. The assay results are summarized:\nTwo samples taken from the main quartz vein returned values of 43.9 and 7.28 g/t Au Six samples of relatively strongly altered host rock adjacent and proximal to ...
