[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 15, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Riverside Resources Inc. (\"Riverside\" or the \"Company\") (TSX-V: RRI) (OTCQB: RVSDF) (FSE: R99), is pleased to receive new exploration results at its 100%-owned Cecilia Gold Project (the “Project”) in northeastern Sonora, Mexico. Recent rock sampling and mapping was conducted on the Cecilia 1 claim following-up on anomalous areas identified during the reconnaissance soil sampling survey which was conducted over the larger tenure acquired earlier this year. Initially, the exploration work focused on the Cerro Magallanes rhyolite dome complex where historical drilling, mining and other work delineated high-grade gold mineralization. The most recent work by Riverside has been at the Cecilia 1 claim which covers a large area (~50km2) of favorable geology that is bisected by several large regional structures that have been found to host gold mineralization. Over the past several months Riverside has completed a reconnaissance soil sample survey over the northeastern portion of the claim and followed this up with a sampling and mapping survey that included a Terraspec assisted alteration survey, Innovex geochemical testing, and assaying of selected areas. The soil sampling survey documented several, large linear anomalies that have now been field checked with initial sampling and mapping work. The most recent work has focused on four (4) new areas in addition to the main Cerro Magallanes target area therefore expanding the overall value of the Cecilia Project. Riverside’s President and CEO, John-Mark Staude, stated: “Riverside has continued working on the Cecilia Project following-up on its initial soil and channel sampling programs further refining the targets on the concession. The recent program has defined several epithermal targets that show significant strike length and need to be drilled. The Cecilia 1 concession expands Riverside’s exploration footprint over a much larger area (58 km2). The fieldwork to date demonstrates the robust nature of the Cecilia Project showing large mineralized structures over significant strike lengths.” Casa de Piedra target: The Casa de Piedra target is east of Cerro Magallanes on the recently added Riverside concession, Cecilia 1. The target zone comprises a 2 km long shear fault vein with abundant epithermal mineraliz...
