(TSXV: OCG) (\"Outcrop\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to provide an update on its Cauca project. Exploration work includes roadcut and trench sampling, mapping, reconnaissance prospecting, and local systematic channel sampling along road-cuts in areas with observed relatively higher epithermal vein density. Importantly, cross-sectional and 3D model work support the concept that numerous currently undefined and unmodeled veins have the potential to add significant gold-silver-copper values to the La Custodia deposit.The work indicates where future drilling should be focused. Importantly work provides a best orientation of core-holes to test a large epithermal vein system that overprints porphyry-style mineralization.Exploration Work ObjectivesThe initial program was designed to understand the prevalent character and orientation of epithermal gold veins, and from that information design future drill tests in the designed pit. In the designed pit area, there are numerous historic core-hole intercepts of epithermal veins and veinlet zones. Sometimes multiple vein zones occur in a single core-hole. This is interpreted as parallel zones with possibly a predictable average spacing.Surface work confirms a predominant northwest strike and sub vertical dips of the vein zones. This prevalent vein orientation can be used to begin to project vein segments based on existing intercepts in sections and a 3D model.With a dominant vein orientation, the Company has initiated preliminary projection and modeling of the veins as well as a better estimate of vein zone true thickness. Because historic drilling is sparse, and wide-spread and rarely optimally oriented, Outcrop now can orient future drilling and have a higher probability of success in intercepting high-grade epithermal vein zones.Significant mechanical trenching and drilling from scout level to delineation levels will be required to evaluate the epithermal veins. Drilling should first test the core area of higher-grade porphyry mineralization.Note that all references to non-compliant NI 43101 block models, block model grades and designed pit shell referenced in the text and figures below are as reported extensively in Outcrop Gold n...
