[{"type":"text","content":"THUNDER BAY, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - May 17, 2017) - Mexican Gold Corp. (\"Mexican Gold\" or the \"Company\") (TSX VENTURE:MEX) is pleased to announce that the final holes for its phase 1 infill/extension drilling program at its Las Minas gold project have expanded the footprint of the El Dorado/Juan Bran mineralized zone on strike. Additionally, high-grade mineralization has been intersected in a number of holes, including both upper and lower zones in diamond drill hole LM-17-ED-38 as well as holes LM-17-ED-31, LM-17-ED-35 and LM-JB-16. The western boundary of the mineralized zone was extended on strike by holes LM-17-JB-15, LM-17-JB-16 and LM-17-JB-18. These holes intersected strong mineralization up to 90 metres beyond the extent of mineralization defined by earlier drilling. A total of 24 diamond drill holes were drilled as part of the infill/ extension program during the period from February 18th to April 12th, 2015. Highlights from holes extending the western boundary of mineralization include: 2.00 g/t Au Eq over 8.0 metres in LM-17JB-15 4.51 g/t Au Eq over 16.0 metres in LM-17-JB-16, within 3.89 g/t Au Eq over 20.0 metres, 4.00 g/t Au Eq over 6.0 metres in LM-17-ED-18, within 3.22 g/t Au Eq over 10.0 metres High-grade mineralization was intersected in a number of infill/ extension holes including the following: 6.14 g/t Au Eq over 16.0 metres in LM-17-ED-31, within 4.79 g/t Au Eq over 28.0 metres, within 3.88 g/t Au Eq over 38.0 metres 5.43 g/t Au Eq over 10.0 metres in LM-17-ED-35 within 4.22 g/t Au Eq over 14.0 metres, within 3.36 g/t Au Eq over 18.0 metres 5.29 g/t Au Eq over 16.0 metres in LM-17-ED-38 Upper Zone, within 4.57 g/t Au Eq over 21.0 metres 4.59 g/t Au Eq over 11.6 metres in LM-17-ED-38 Lower Zone, within 3.12 g/t Au Eq over 23.6 metres 4.51 g/t Au Eq over 16.0 metres in LM-17-JB-16, within 3.89 g/t Au Eq over 20.0 metres Selected drill results are included in Table 1 below.
