(TSXV: HART) (formerly Vicunau Metals Corp.) (the \"Company\", \"Gold Hart\", or \"HART\") is pleased to announce completion of the second diamond drill hole at its Tolita gold-copper-silver-molybdenum porphyry target where the Maricunga Gold Belt meets the emerging Vicuña Copper Belt.This second drill hole reached a depth of 603 meters. Drill core is being transported from Gold Hart's Tolita asset to the Gold Hart Copper office in Copiapo for logging, after which time it is tagged, sawed, and finally submitted to an internationally recognized laboratory for assaying.

Much like the first hole, the core was visually interesting such that we drilled as deep as possible, and would have liked to have kept the drill going for at least another couple hundred meters, but this particular rig could only reach 603m. I'm truly excited to return in September with a larger drill rig to continue the campaign and drill even deeper.\"Similar to the first diamond hole (613m), Gold Hart Co-founder & Chairman Emeritus Dr. Professor José Frutos and Co-Founder & Executive Vice President Jonathan Warner personally rotated shifts in order to constantly monitor the drilling. The Company also wishes to thank its drilling team for their commitment in smoothly operating the drill rig 24/7 over the past two months, and successfully completing these first two diamond holes totaling 1,216 meters, hopefully just the beginning of a much larger campaign. The Company currently plans to return in September to drill at least another 5,000 meters, for which the C...
