Fiore Exploration Appoints Vern Arseneau as Vice-President, Exploration and Provides Pampas El Peñon Update


Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire) - Fiore Exploration Ltd. (“Fiore” or the “Company”) (TSXV: F), is pleased to announce that it has appointed Vern Arseneau, P. Geo., as the Company’s Vice-President, Exploration, effective September 1st, 2016.

Mr. Arseneau has more than forty years of experience in exploration and project management, of which the last twenty have been in South America, principally in Chile, Peru, and Argentina.  Mr. Arseneau spent twenty years working as exploration manager and senior geologist for Noranda Inc. in Canada and South America.  As the general manager of Noranda’s Peru office for four years he was responsible for the reactivation of the El Pachon project in Argentina and participated in the acquisition of the Lomas Bayas Mine near Antofagasta.  He also spent three years based in Noranda’s Santiago office working on the company’s regional exploration programs.

Mr. Arseneau holds a Bachelor of Science in geology and has consulted on numerous base and precious metals projects.

“We are extremely pleased to welcome Vern Arseneau as our new VP Exploration,” commented Tim Warman, Fiore’s CEO.  “Vern’s long experience in Latin America runs the gamut from grassroots exploration to project development, as well as new project evaluation and acquisition.  He brings a broad network of contacts throughout the region which will be invaluable as we execute our strategy of acquiring undervalued projects, as well as a wealth of hand-on operational expertise with exploration projects across the continent.”

Mr. Arseneau will oversee the Company’s operations in the field, including the exploration program on our flagship Pampas El Peñon project in Chile.  A detailed ground magnetics survey over both concession blocks has recently been completed in advance of an 8,000 m reverse-circulation drilling program planned for Q4 2016.  Two main structures will be targeted by the drilling program.  The first target is the fault-bounded margins of a rhyolite dome that extends for at least 1.7 km in a north-south direction, the same geological setting that hosts the mineralized epithermal veins currently being mined at Yamana’s adjacent El Peñon Mine.  The second target is an outcropping jasperoid breccia body with elevated arsenic and antimony values, both common pathfinder elements for epithermal gold deposits.

Vern Arseneau, P. Geo., Fiore’s VP Exploration, is the Qualified Person who supervised the preparation of the technical data in this news release.
