[{"type":"text","content":"Durango Completes Program At Dianna Lake Silver, Sask.(via TheNewswire)\n\n \nVancouver, BC / TheNewswire / August 31, 2017 - Durango Resources Inc. (TSX.V-DGO) (OTC- ATOXF) (Frankfurt-86A1), (the \"Company\" or \"Durango\") announces that further to the news releases dated August 8 and August 22, 2017, the dewatering and sampling of Pit#1 on its Dianna Lake Silver Project in northern Saskatchewan is complete.\n\n\n \nDurango's exploration crew has finished the follow-up program for the wholly owned Dianna Lake property which began August 18th and consisted of further investigation of the anomalies discovered in 2016. The work also included sampling historical Pit#1 which was flooded with water in 2016 and systematic sampling of historic trenches. \n\n\n \nDurango's team was successful in dewatering historical Pit #1 which hosted high grade silver grab samples of up to 2,458 oz/t (76,452.34 g/t) Ag in the past. The crew also completed systematic sampling of historical trenches in the area which hosted copper with historical results of to 1.6% Cu. \n\n\n \n52 channel samples from the various zones of historic workings and 63 grab samples from the surrounding areas were taken for assay. All 115 samples have been sent to Activation Laboratories for assay.\n\n\n \nIn addition to sampling, the crew completed approximately 7 km of mag/gradient and 1 km of VLF in the immediate area of the historical workings to help compare with historical reports in the area to produce an updated geological map.\n\n\n \nMarcy Kiesman, CEO of Durango, comments, \"Based on the historic information, the highest-grade silver samples were recovered from Pit #1 so we are excited that our crew was able to successfully dewater and sample the area. We hope to be able to verify the historically documented silver results of Dianna Lake property during the August 2017 program and further details on the exploration program will be released as assay results become available and interpreted.\"\n\n \n \n\n\n\nClick Image To View Full Size\n\n\n\n \n \nBefore and after de-watering of Pit #1\n\n\n \n\nClick Image To View Full Size\n\n \n \nFigure 1: Sampling Locations Within Historical Pit Area (Highlights) Full size image at: http://www.durangoresourcesinc.com/dianna-lake-silver-saskatchewan/\n\n\n \nThe technical contents of this release were approved by George Yorda...
