(TSXV: SMN) (\"San Marco\") is pleased to announce it has intersected wide zones of continuous gold mineralization from its recently completed Phase 1 drill program at its 100% optioned gold/silver/zinc Buck property in north-central B.C. Highlights of the Phase 1 drill program include: 91 metres of 0.80 g/t AuEq (gold equivalent, gold and silver only) within 156 metres of 0.63 g/t AuEq, including 33 metres of 1.01 g/t AuEq.81 metres of 0.78 g/t AuEq within 200.7 metres of 0.51 g/t AuEq, including 44 metres of 1.01 g/t AuEq. 2.15 metres of 6.3 g/t Au and 10.0 g/t Ag, including 0.3 metres of 20.7 g/t Au and 48.9 g/t Ag (within 4 metres of the bottom of BK20-002).Mineralization is hosted in highly clay altered, faulted and fractured, brecciated volcanic tuffs, as wide disseminated zones and high-grade veins.[*]Very consistent gold and silver grades intersected at shallow depths, some of which are projected to surface. San Marco's Executive Director, Bob Willis, states \"We are very encouraged to see significant intervals of continuous gold mineralization at Buck, which confirms our preliminary findings that this is a large, near-surface gold/silver exploration opportunity. We intend to aggressively ramp up exploration efforts, with our 'boots on the ground' exploration team arriving on site in about three weeks. Our drill program gave us the first opportunity to see fresh core we could log and tie to gold mineralization, and to help target the best host rocks, alteration, and structural setting for gold deposition. We will use this new information to target drilling for Phase 2 and to prioritize numerous attractive, but previously poorly understood, target areas at Buck.\"The 1,806 metre drill program was centered in an area of historically explored mineralization and consisted of a total of five holes, where three holes were drilled in an area of known mineralization near surface. An additional two short holes were collared 350 metres to the northwest in an attempt to locate a previously postulated mineralized fault zone. Drill hole locations for the Phase 1 d...
