Highlights from the drilling include:\n\n \n \n\n\n-.Hole ET-16-083 - 121.1 meters of 1.38 g/t gold equivalent consisting of 1.02 g/t gold and 27.0 g/t silver; including 57.8 meters of 1.90 g/t gold equivalent consisting of 1.51 g/t gold and 28.9 g/t silver. \n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n-.Hole ET-16-085 - 89.7 meters of 1.02 g/t gold equivalent consisting of 0.62 g/t gold and 30.3 g/t silver; including 21.1 meters of 2.36 g/t gold equivalent consisting of 1.38 g/t gold and 73.6 g/t silver. \n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n-.Hole ET-16-087 - 79.2 meters of 1.02 g/t gold equivalent consisting of 0.80 g/t gold and 16.7 g/t silver; including 27.5 meters of 1.66 g/t gold equivalent consisting of 1.14 g/t gold and 38.7 g/t silver. \n\n\n\n \n \nFor the seven drill holes true width has not been calculated for the intercepts, but true width is generally estimated at 75-90% of drilled width. Drill assays were composited by length-weighted averaging into intersections using a 0.2 g/t gold equivalent cut-off grade. The gold equivalent ratio is based on a gold to silver price ratio of 75:1.\n\n \n \nOceanus mobilized the diamond drill and crew in early July and to date have completed 11 holes totaling 2,000 meters of HQ size core. The purpose of the drilling program is to determine the full extent of the mineralization in the hanging wall and footwall of the deposit, to confirm the geological continuity of the mineralization and to collect fresh core for metallurgical test work. \n\n \n \nThe majority of the holes were drilled between Sections 4200N and 3950N in the central portion of the 1.6 kilometer long deposit. One hole, ET-16-084, was drilled on Section 4975N to test for possible mineralization along the Seitz Kelly vein.\n\n \n \nGlenn Jessome, President and CEO of Oceanus, commented \"Our drilling at El Tigre adds and confirms wide zones of precious metals mineralization that demonstrates potential as a bulk...
