[{"type":"text","content":" TORONTO, Nov. 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inventus Mining Corp. (TSX VENTURE: IVS)(“Inventus” or the “Company”) today announces that it has received assay results for the first 28 holes of the winter drill program at the 100% owned Pardo Paleoplacer Gold Project (“Pardo”) near Sudbury, Ontario. A total of 28 definition drill holes and 7 step-out holes at the 007 Zone have been completed and the program is near completion. Gold-bearing conglomerate layers or “reefs” at Pardo are horizontal and typically 1-3 metres (m) in thickness. Reefs are laterally extensive and occur on or very near surface. Higher gold grades occur concentrated in fluvial channels or “pay streaks”, and valleys in the footwall upon which the conglomerate was deposited. The objective of the current definition drill program is to provide data to support the next phase of bulk sampling. Completed assay results from drilling at the 007 Zone are as follows: Hole ID From(m) To(m) Length(m) Gold Grade(g/t) PD-18-01 0 2.68 2.68 1.74 PD-18-02 0 2.53 2.53 1.28 PD-18-03 0 2.86 2.86 3.27 PD-18-04 0 3.12 3.12 3.07 Including 0 0.50 0.50 13.00 PD-18-05 0 2.44 2.44 3.91 PD-18-06 0 2.35 2.35 4.78 Including 0.85 1.50 0.65 11.40 PD-18-07 0 3.38 3.38 2.20 Including 1.95 2.50 0.55 11.20 PD-18-08 0 3.47 3.47 2.33 PD-18-09 0 2.30 2.30 2.79 PD-18-10 0 2.77 2.77 0.62 PD-18-11 0 2.85 2.85 0.93 PD-18-12 0 2.80 2.80 0.62 PD-18-13 0 3.58 3.58 2.04 Including 0 0.30 0.30 16.50 PD-18-14 0 1.98 1.98 3.55 Including 0.50 1.04 0.54 12.00 PD-18-15 0 2.50 2.50 6.78 Including 0 0.54 0.54 20.95 PD-18-16 0 1.93 1.93 13.39 Including 0 0.30 0.30 62.00 PD-18-17 0 2.26 2.26 3.48 PD-18-18 0 2.40 2.40 1.36 PD-18-19 0 2.50 2.50 1.10 PD-18-20 0 2.47 2.47 2.89 PD-18-21 0 2.05 2.05 7.48 PD-18-22 1.36 4.82 3.46 1.44 PD-18-23 0 1.40 1.40 1.16 PD-18-24 0 2.00 2.00 9.52 Including 0.50 1.10 0.60 29.20 PD-18-25 0 2.40 2.40 4.15 Including 0.60 0.95 0.35 20.00 PD-18-26 0 2.20 2.20 8.59 Including 0.65 1.20 0.55 29.70 PD-18-27 0 1.92 1.92 5.34 Including 0.65 1.30 0.65 14.80 PD-18-28 0 2.00 2.00 4.50 Including 0.50 1.10 0.60 11.40 All holes were drilled vertically.
