Phase Two Drill Program At The Manhattan District

VANCOUVER – Scorpio Gold Corp. reported on five step-out holes and one exploration hole (26MN-049 through 26MN-054) of the Phase Two drill program at the Manhattan District Project, Nevada.
Scorpio Gold has drilled 56 drill holes to date from its Phase Two diamond drilling program, 25MN-011 through 25MN-045, 26MN-046 through 26MN-066, for a grand total of 18,228 m. With the results herein, Scorpio Gold has reported assays on 42 of these (25MN-011 through 25MN-054), totalling 14,334 m, and assays are pending from 14 holes (26MN-055 through 26MN-066), totalling 3,894 m. Results will be reported as they become available.
“Results from hole 26MN-053 at Black Mammoth reinforces our belief that strong gold mineralization continues along the caldera margin to the northwest of Goldwedge, outside the current Inferred Resource Constraining Pit. With mineralization hosted primarily within brecciated volcanic units, the 24.69 metre interval grading 0.75 g/t gold from 230.12 metres signifies the potential for blue-sky opportunities along this margin through the district. With results pending from hole 26MN-057, our second hole at Black Mammoth, we are already planning follow-up holes,” said, Harrison Pokrandt, VP Exploration.
