Durango Provides Update on Exploration Activities
Vancouver, BC / TheNewswire / April 8, 2020 – Durango Resources Inc. (TSX.V-DGO) (Frankfurt-86A1) (OTCQB -ATOXF), (the “Company” or “Durango”) provides an update on the status of its exploration activities and financial position in relation to the unstable market conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Currently all exploration activities near Durango’s Windfall Lake Québec properties have been shut down, making them inaccessible. During this time of closure, Durango’s Technical Committee is reviewing the historical data previously collected on its East Barry property. The East Barry property is 6,100 hectares in size and runs parallel to the 1,188 hectare Trove property in the Windfall Lake area, where the two projects are bisected by Osisko Mining Inc. (TSX-OSK). Osisko has recently disseminated very encouraging results from their drill programs in the area.
Durango’s East Barry property previously returned up to 2.19 g/t gold in till including visible gold grains (see Durango news release dated July 23, 2018). To further define the 5km gold trend on the East Barry property, additional follow up work plans may include more till sampling, mapping and Induced Polarization surveys.
The recent second quarter financial statements of Durango dated January 31, 2020 reported $204,018 cash on hand and the Company subsequently received a tax refund of $183,828 from Revenu Québec and a GST refund of $20,694. Further, in March 2020, Durango closed a private placement offering for gross proceeds of $200,000, leaving the Company in a solid cash operating position to withstand the current adverse market conditions.
Marcy Kiesman, CEO of Durango stated, “Durango’s exploration milestones are still on track despite the shut down near our Windfall properties. The slow down related to the COVID-19 pandemic is giving our technical team an opportunity to carefully review all historical data collected on the East Barry claim block and they are designing a program which is expected to begin as soon as the Windfall area of Québec opens up and is safe for exploration.”
Further details on the East Barry exploration program and related private placement to finance the work will be shared as they become available.
