Riverside Moves Forward With 100% Ownership Interest In Thor Copper Project

VANCOUVER, BC - Riverside Resources Inc. has regained a 100% interest in the Thor Copper Project. The Thor Copper Project is located in north-eastern Sonora along the main copper producing belt of Mexico. Riverside and Antofagasta completed an initial proof-of-concept drill program to test for a Laramide aged porphyry-intrusive system. The first four (4) drill holes ever drilled at Thor confirmed the concept, with three of the four drill holes intersecting a large Laramid e-aged porphyry style quartz-sericite-pyrite stockwork system. 

Riverside will regain a 100% interest in the Thor Copper Project with drill permits already in place, drill cores, maps, data and target areas defined. The Company also owns the 12.4 km2 Ariel Copper-Gold Project, which was won through the lottery-staking system and is strategically located 30 km ESE of the La Caridad Cu-Mo porphyry mine. Ariel covers an extensive zone of hydrothermal alteration, measuring 2.8 km in length by approximately 1.9 km wide. Riverside owns three quality copper porphyry prospects in northern Mexico, and will explore partnership opportunities to advance the copper portfolio going forward.
