NEW YORK, January 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
http://www.Financialbuzz.com - Uncertainty in the global financial
market continues to boost gold price in the first month of 2017 as investors considered the precious metal as safe-haven asset.
Societe Generale Head of Metals Research Robin Bhar said in a statement, "Trump's stance on trade
and protectionism has been well aired and it will always be a key factor. But until we get more clarity on what exactly it means,
this should help to underpin gold…This year there are lots of uncertain political events, including elections, so if you looking
for a bit of a refuge from stormy seas gold will be one of those safe assets that you would park some money in." Fiore
Exploration Ltd. (TSX-V: F.V) (OTCQB: FIORF), Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE: ABX) (TSE: ABX.TO), Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. (NYSE:
AEM) (TSE: AEM.TO), McEwen Mining Inc. (NYSE: MUX) (TSE: MUX.TO), B2Gold Corporation (NYSE: BTG) (TSE: BTO.TO)
Gold price hit its highest level since Nov.22 on Tuesday as President-elect stated the U.S. dollar was "too strong", in the
Wall Street Journal interview. In addition, investors' concerns over the future economic policies linger even after the
inauguration this week helped boost the demand for the precious metal. Gold was up 1 percent on Tuesday and had rose about 6
percent this year. It gained 8.1 percent in 2016.
Fiore Exploration Ltd. (OTCQB: FIORF) (TSX-V: F.V) is a Latin America focused
gold explorer, who is engaged in the business of acquiring, exploring, evaluating and developing mineral resource properties. The
Company's principal activity is the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties in Canada.
The company holds an interest in approximately nine claims in the Thunder Bay Mining District of North Central Ontario, known as
the Dotted Lake Property, which includes over two Lampson Lake claims.
Earlier today, Fiore Exploration Ltd. announced that, "exploration has commenced on its Cerro Tostado project in Chile, where high-grade epithermal silver veins were previously intersected by three of eighteen holes
drilled between 2010 and 2012 by Sociedad Quimica Y Minera de Chile SA ("SQM"). Significant intersections from SQM's
drilling at Cerro Tostado included:
- 3.0 m of 637.0 g/t silver in hole CTAR-01
- 2.0 m of 830.3 g/t silver in hole TEAR-01, and
- 2.0 m of 332.5 g/t silver in hole CTAR-02.
Fiore has signed a definitive agreement with SQM to acquire the Cerro Tostado property, on terms previously announced (see PR
of November 14, 2016 for details), and has issued subject to exchange approval 10,000 common shares
to Fiore Management and Advisory Corp., in conjunction with this acquisition pursuant to its mandate agreement.
Exploration began with a ground magnetic survey completed in early December by Argali Geofisica Chile E.I.R.L., consisting of
324.3 line kilometres of ground magnetic surveying at 50 m line spacing. The survey identified a number of ENE-SSW, and NW-SE
linear structures, with the intersection of these structures representing the most favourable location for epithermal vein
emplacement. In January 2017, Fiore geologists began a program of re-logging and resampling the
material from the SQM RC holes, which had been stored at a secure SQM facility in Chile. A field
program of geological, structural and alteration mapping as well as surface sampling is scheduled for Q1 2017, to build up a more
complete picture of the epithermal veins encountered in the previous program. A combined diamond and RC drilling program will
follow in early Q2 2017.
Tim Warman, Fiore's CEO stated, "We're very excited to begin work on Cerro Tostado, following
up on the earlier high-grade silver intercepts drilled by SQM, while we await the final results from Pampas El Peñon. The geology
of Fiore's land package surrounding Yamana's flagship El Peñon Mine is very favourable for both high and low-sulphidation
precious metal deposits like those at the El Peñon Mine Complex, particularly at Cerro Tostado where mineralized veins have been
encountered over a strike length of approximately 160 m, with the veins open along strike and at depth. At the same time, Fiore
continues to advance its strategy of acquiring other undervalued and underexplored assets in Latin
America, focusing on areas where the management team can provide a competitive advantage through its experience and local
knowledge."
