(\"Jaguar\" or the \"Company\") (TSX: JAG) today announced growth exploration drill results from 14 underground holes at Turmalina Gold Mine (\"Turmalina\") and three infill drill holes at Pilar Gold Mine (\"Pilar\") in Minas Gerais, Brazil.  At Turmalina, drilling targeted the down-plunge continuity of the principal Orebodies A and C (see press release November 28, 2017). Updated mineral resources and ore reserves for Pilar and mineral resources for Turmalina are planned to be published in March 2018.\n\nTurmalina Key Highlights \n\n\nAdditional high-grade intercepts confirm deep extensions of primary orebodies and increases confidence in delivering improved near-term production. Infill drilling demonstrates significant increases in the Grade-Thickness (gram-metre) when drill spacing is decreased to convert and upgrade mineral resources to mineral reserves.\nOrebody A growth exploration drilling confirms down plunge lower extensions approximately 300m vertically below current operations and previously reported resources. Grades and tonnages per vertical metre are consistent with historical levels. \nOrebody A key intercepts include 4.96g/t Au over 19.90m (ETW 7.20m), 4.02g/t Au over 16.10m (ETW 8.20m), and 8.34g/t Au over 6.30m (ETW 3.70m), (see Table 1 and Appendix 1).\nOrebody A infill drilling increases confidence in near term performance exp...
