(TSX-V: MRZ, OTCPK: MRZLF, \"Mirasol\") is pleased to announce the results from an 18 hole, 2,550 m, Phase I diamond core drilling (DDH) program from the La Castora Trend at the La Curva OceanaGold JV, Santa Cruz, Argentina (Figure 1). \n\n\nAssay results confirm the presence of a large Au+Ag system within the Castora Trend with broad zones of anomalous Au+Ag intersected including:\n\n47.9 m at 0.48 g/t Au and 2.1 g/t Ag (CC-DDH-01)\n106.2 m at 0.61 g/t and 2.7 g/t Ag (SW-DDH-02)\nThe better down hole intersections at 0.3 AuEq60* g/t cut off include:\n\n19.65 m grading 0.72 g/t Au and 2.6 g/t Ag, including 0.80 m grading 6.12 g/t Au and 18.6 g/t Ag, and 5.75 m grading 1.24 g/t Au and 2.0 g/t Ag, including 0.85 m grading 5.99 g/t Au and 5.9 g/t Ag (CC-DDH-01).\n13.00 m grading 1.22 g/t Au and 0.7 g/t Ag, including 7.4 m grading 1.81 g/t Au and 0.7 g/t Ag (LA-DDH-04).\n6.20 m grading 2.33 g/t Au and 31.1 g/t Ag, including 1.80 m grading 6.88 g/t Au and 84.9 g/t Ag, and 26.7 m grading 0.82 g/t Au and 2.2 g/t Ag, including 1.45 m grading 3.50 g/t Au and 11.3 g/t Ag (SW-DDH-02). \nTwo distinct stages of Au mineralization are recognized: Stage 1: This stage is characterized by broad zones (up to 106.2 m downhole) of lower-grade, early quartz-pyrite.Stage 2: This is a later, overprinting phase of higher-grade multi-pulse epithermal veins and veinlets with individual assays up to 0.8 m grading 12.72 g/t Au and 145.4 g/t Ag (SW-DDH-02). \n\nThe CEO of Mirasol, Stephen Nano, stated that \"this initial phase of drilling is interpreted to have intersected the upper portion of a Au dominated epithermal system, that manifests as both narrow, high-grade veinlets and lower-grade, broader zones of disseminated style mineralization.  We are encouraged by these initial drill results that show evidence ...
