ePower Metals Inc (TSXV:EPWR)(the “Company” or “ePower Metals”) stakes three new gold-silver-cobalt claims in Sinaloa, Mexico.

Through an intensive data review by the Company’s Mexican exploration team, ePower Metals has identified a number of gold-silver-cobalt targets in Sinaloa Mexico. The Company has staked three individual claims “The Cosalá Group” with a total area of approximately 4400 hectares. The claims are located south of the Company’s high grade Magenta gold-silver-cobalt project and north of Americas Silver Corporation’s silver-lead-zinc “San Rafael Mine.”

Michael Collins, President and CEO of ePower Metals comments, “Sinaloa is well know for it’s gold and silver mines dating back to the Spanish Conquitstadors and our research has identified additional targets that build on the potential of the Magenta Gold-Silver-Cobalt project to the north. We see great potential for resource discovery and development in Sinaloa and will continue to develop our project base there.”
