Precious Metals

Lundin Gold Inc. (“Lundin Gold” or the “Company”) (TSX: LUG, Nasdaq Stockholm: LUG) is pleased to announce that it has begun an exploration drill program at the El Puma target (“El Puma”). El Puma is located approximately 12 kilometres (“km”) south of the Fruta del Norte gold project (“Fruta del Norte”) in Ecuador, within the Suarez pull-apart basin (the “Basin”), see Figure 1. Under the program, expected to be completed in early 2018, Lundin Gold has planned 4,000 metres of diamond drilling.
As quoted in the press release:

“Follow up drill testing at this prospective target is being led by Steve Leary, the former Exploration Manager of Aurelian Resources, Inc.,” said Ron Hochstein, President and CEO of Lundin Gold. “We have brought together most of the original Aurelian exploration team that was part of the initial discovery of Fruta del Norte, which is critical given the complex nature of these deposits.”
