[{"type":"text","content":"VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - March 28, 2016) - Condor Resources Inc. (\"Condor\" or the \"Company\") (TSX VENTURE:CN) - Further to the Company's news release of February 23, 2015, Compañia Minera Casapalca S.A. (\"Casapalca\") has advised Condor that a drill rig arrived at the Company's Soledad project in Ancash, Peru, last week, and started operations earlier today. A second rig is currently on site, and is expected to begin drilling in the next few days. Permitting is currently in place for up to eight holes, as a follow up to the initial twelve holes drilled in 2014. Casapalca have contracted with GeoDrill S.A.C. to conduct the program. Ever Marquez, Condor's VP Exploration is assisting Casapalca in interpreting the geology, and selecting drill-hole locations. The location of the first hole is near Breccia No. 5, in the 'Soledad Central' target area (refer to http://www.condorresources.com/i/maps/Soledad-Feb-2015-news-release-Fig-4-2015-Priority-Dri.jpg). The area between Breccia No. 5 and No. 6 is of high interest as deep penetrating geophysics conducted subsequent to the initial 2014 drill program suggests that Breccias Number 5 and 6 may connect at depth. See http://www.condorresources.com/i/maps/Soledad-Feb-2015-news-release-Fig-5-South-North-Secti.jpg. The location of Breccia No. 6 is approximately 500m due north of No. 5, and about 200m higher in elevation. The second drill rig will be positioned in the area of Breccia No. 6. The 2014 drill program included 2 drill-holes in Breccia No. 5, and one shallow drill-hole in Breccia No. 6, all with encouraging results. See http://www.condorresources.com/i/maps/SOLEDAD-DRILLHOLES-1-to-12-JULY-21-2014.jpg. Casapalca has an option to earn up to a 70% interest at Soledad over the next four years by completing 15,500m of diamond drilling and by making a series of cash payments to the Company.
