Phoenix, Arizona--(Newsfile Corp. - May 30, 2017) - Tombstone Exploration Corporation (OTC Pink: TMBXF), a fully reporting
company announced today that Core(HQ) drilling will begin next week on its 100% owned Stardust Claims located in Yuma County,
Arizona.
TMBXF'S Reclamation Bond was accepted on May 17, 2017, by the United States Bureau of Land Management, and prior to this, the
Notice Application to conduct exploration drilling plan was accepted.
TMBXF has engaged Harris Exploration Drilling and Associates Inc. (Harris Drilling), a Nevada company to commence drilling on
the Stardust property the first week of June. Harris Drilling has been in business for over fifty years and has worked for many of
the top mining and exploration companies in the world.
This first phase drilling program is designed to establish strike length and test grades over a large enough width within the
defined chlorite hematite hosted vein system. The drilling will attempt to define structural continuity (vein continuity along
strike), grade of veins and hosting chl-hem zone, and find the width of structures. The program, as designed, should also
demonstrate grade at reasonably shallow depths. The lowest drilling angle -45 degrees is envisioned for this program. This phase
will include approximately 3000 ft of drilling.
The mineralization present at the Stardust Project appears to be located within detachment related veins hosted by intensively
chloritic and hematitic host rocks. The vein system has been sampled over a strike of approximately 3200 feet (975 meters). These
veins appear to be a feeder system of an extensive partially eroded low angle fault system regionally present.
Alan Brown, President of TMBXF, stated "We are extremely pleased to commence the start of this drilling campaign and confident
of our potential for discovering a gold deposit for our shareholders. We look forward to providing updates over the course of the
campaign".
Tombstone Exploration Corporation is a gold silver copper exploration company based in Phoenix, Arizona. The Company's goal is
to maximize shareholder value through focused exploration, testing and development of high quality mineral targets in the prolific
mineral producing areas in S.W. USA. This goal will be achieved in part through the application of the best mineral exploration
practices and techniques available to our experienced exploration and management team, including adherence to the highest possible
standards of corporate responsibility, governance and conduct.
