(TSX-V: MRZ, OTCPK: MRZLF \"Mirasol\") is pleased to announce encouraging intersections of Au+Ag mineralization in shallow reverse-circulation (RC) drilling at the 100% owned Claudia project in Santa Cruz Province Argentina.  These preliminary results are from the drilling campaign just completed by Joint Venture partner Cerro Vanguardia S.A. (CVSA - 92.5 % owned by AngloGold Ashanti, the controlling shareholder, and 7.5 % by Fomicruz S.E., the Santa Cruz provincial mining company).  Since commencing drilling during May 2016, CVSA has completed 39 shallow RC drill holes totaling 3,543 m across the Curahue prospect, primarily focused on the \"Io\" trend (Figure 1).\n\nAssays have been received for 18 of the 26 RC holes that provide a shallow test of the 2 km long \"Io\" vein zone in the Curahue prospect.  Curahue is one of five prospect areas identified within the Claudia project (Figure 2), and is defined by a 15 km long Au+Ag bearing epithermal vein corridor where Mirasol exploration has outlined six large, previously undrilled, vein trends, including:  Io, Europa, Sinope, Calisto, Ganymede and Themisto (see news release July 27, 2015, Claudia Project Summary).\n\nGradient array geophysical surveys previously conducted by Mirasol at Curahue have proved to be a very reliable tool for targeting veins concealed by gravel on the \"Io\" trend.  The current RC drilling campaign has tested some of the high-priority \"Io\" trend targets to depths of between 20 and 120 m below surface and intersected a series of sizable epithermal veins and stockworks.  Interpretation of preliminary cross-sections suggest the \"I...
