(TSX-V: MRZ) (OTCPK: MRZLF) (the \"Company\" or \"Mirasol\") is pleased to announce updated surface exploration results from its Sascha Marcelina Low Sulfidation Epithermal (\"LSE\") gold-silver project in the Santa Cruz Province of Argentina. The project is located 100 km south of Newmont Goldcorp's Cerro Negro mine and displays similar geologic and geomorphic settings. \nMirasol's President and CEO, Norm Pitcher, stated: \"We are pleased to provide an update on the work completed since the consolidation of the Sascha Marcelina project that was announced earlier this year. Our exploration activities were focused on the previously underexplored Marcelina claims and to date, the results have been very encouraging with numerous high-grade results in the new Estancia, Pellegrini and Igloo prospects. The project warrants further work to define drill targets but is shaping up to host multiple attractive and untested prospects.\" \nSacha Marcelina Exploration Overview\nThe surface exploration activities completed this field season on the Sascha Marcelina project include  geological mapping aided by the acquisition of drone supported high-resolution base images, detailed rock chip sampling, extensive soil grid sampling (with PXRF sourced geochemistry) and the acquisition of  alteration data using in-house handheld ASD (Analytical Spectral Devices) technology on all of the rock chips and soil samples collected to date. This recent work has defined a large alteration footprint of more than 20 km2, located in the immediate vicinity of the Marcelina claims, and hosting an epithermal silica vein system with multiple mineralized trends.  Within this area, new prospects have been recognized, with the \"Estancia Trend\" and the \"Igloo Trend\", both located in close proximity to an ...
