(\"Jaguar\" or the \"Company\") (TSX:JAG)(OTCQX:JAGGF) is pleased to announce results from exploration completed at its Turmalina Gold Mine Complex, located in the Iron Quadrangle in the state of Minas Gerais, Brasil. In - mine and mine-contiguous drilling at Turmalina is part of the Company's ongoing growth exploration strategy.At Orebody C Northwest (CNW) drilling targeted shallow strike and depth extensions proximal to and accessible from underground development.At Pontal South, drilling has defined a newly identified mineralized zone occurring in the gap area between the Pontal and Faina Areas. (Figure 1).Drill intersections reported from both areas are outside currently defined mineral resource limits and highlight the potential to add additional mineral resources to the Company´s mineral resource inventory.Vern Baker, President, and CEO of Jaguar Mining stated: \"Our tenements surrounding the Turmalina Mine have always excited us with their potential. The exploration work and drilling at Pontal South continues to confirm the large-scale continuity of structure and mineralization starting at the Turmalina Mine, running through the Faina resource and on to the Pontal resource - a trend now estimated to be approximately three kilometers in length. The excellent intercepts at CNW demonstrate down plunge continuity of a zone that appears to be of mineable grade and thickness. Drilling at CNW and at Pontal South is continuing with the aim of further identifying potentially economic mineral resources, as well as supporting the extensive engineering and metallurgical work being done following the recent completion of infill drilling on the Faina mineral resource. Development headings have already commenced from workings in our...
