Assay Delays

As recently announced, the Company is awaiting assay results from its five most recently drilled holes at the Holly project in Guatemala.  The assay company is currently experiencing delays in their processing turnaround and therefore the results from Volcanic's drill samples have not yet been received.  We are monitoring the situation and look forward to receiving the results in the near future.
