Parallel Mining Receives Assays from Drilling at Mane II

Parallel Mining Corp. (TSXV:PAL) (the “Company” or “Parallel”) announces that assay results have been received from the recent drilling program designed to test one of the areas of Mane II, the Company’s 163 square kilometer optioned concession in the KayaGoran greenstone belt in central Burkina Faso, approximately 20 kilometers south of Nordgold’s Bissa Gold Mine.

In total, 732 meters in 10 reverse circulation holes were drilled in the southwestern part of the property to test whether high grade gold mineralization at surface extends at depth. Historical results from artisanal reject material, sampled and reported by High River Gold, include gold grades of 20.0 grams per tonne (“gpt”) and 11.2 gpt. In 2017, Parallel Mining conducted a small grab sample program (27 samples) on the artisanal reject material and results included 16.7 gpt, 12.5 gpt, 7.9 gpt, 6.3 gpt, and 6.0 gpt.

The quartz vein being exploited by the artisanal workers hosted in a felsic intrusive (granite), and Evidence of this veining was noted in most of the drill holes although gold values fluctuated. Significant values from this drilling include:

Mane II has several other artisanal workings with high gold values detected in surface sampling which remain untested by drilling. These areas are under review as targets for future work on Mane II.

“We are excited by the hit ratio of the drill holes in this program. This is still early exploration for Parallel on the Mane II property, so seeing the continued evidence of gold like this is exceptionally encouraging.” Commented John Anderson, President and CEO “We look forward to doing further work on this concession, both at this target and at the other zones of interest.
