(TSX.V-DGO), (the \"Company\" or \"Durango\") announces that further to the news of October 23, 2017, Durango has received a geophysical interpretation report by INRS (Institut national de la recherche scientifique) defining nine exploration target areas on its wholly-owned Decouverte property in Quebec (the \"Property\"). \n\n\n \nA 9.9-line kilometre geophysical survey was completed in November 2015 by INRS Centre Eau Terre et Environnement on the Property, in the James Bay Eyou Istchee Territory of north-central Quebec. The Property is located north of the Assinica Reservoir, 60 km southwest of Troilus and is neighboured by Osisko's Assinica property to the west. The local geology is characterized by classic Archean greenstone belt bedrock covered by a thin veneer of glacial tills. Magnetometric, frequency domain EM and gravimetric surveys were carried out along three sections (lines 100, 200 and 300). The purpose of the surveys was to define conductors with coincident magnetic anomalies that may be related to gold and gold-rich VMS-style mineralization. \n\n\n \nResults from the ground geophysical survey are as follows:\n\n\n \nLine 100 shows a strong magnetic and gradiometric anomaly that is associated with a conductor. Host rocks are wacke and conglomerate of the Broadback Group and a granodiorite.\n\n\n \nLine 200 has five conductors with coincident magnetic anomalies. Host rocks are finely bedded metasedimentary rocks of the Broadback Group and mafic metavolcanic rocks of the Assinica Group.\n\n\n \nLine 300 has two conductors with coincident magnetic low, host rocks are mafic metavolcanic rocks. A 2D Inversion model of the geophysical data measured along line 300 shows strong variability in the electrical resistivity values for the two conductors, from the surface to 400 m and 500 m depth, respectively. \n\n\n \nThe DIGHEM airborne survey electromagnetic data conducted by Fugro for Durango in 2011 was reprocessed and filtered by the INRS team to clarify geological structures in the area. To precisely locate the center of magnetic anomalies and to eliminate regional trends, the analytical signal data was computed from the total magnetic field and superimpo...
