Mundoro Provides Exploration and Corporate Update

V.MUN

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 04, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mundoro Capital Inc. (TSXV: MUN, www.mundoro.com) ("Mundoro" or the "Company") reports an update on the Company’s exploration activity and filing of its condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and the related management’s discussion and analysis of financial position and results of operations. 

Update on Exploration Activity

  • In Serbia, drilling is ongoing at the Borsko license (Figure 1) which is sole-funded by Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation (“JOGMEC”); this drill program of approximately 5,000 m aims to test:
    • Target 1: lateral extension of the alteration and mineralisation intersected in drill hole 17-BJ-11 (15m @ 1.04 g/t Au and 6.9 g/t Ag) further to the east-northeast towards what has now been identified as IP chargeability anomaly;
    • Target 5: a new target identified to test a shallower and stronger IP chargeability anomaly coincident with magnetic low anomaly at favorable structural intersection located 1,500 m north-northeast of Target 1; and
    • Additional targets: identified by both structural interpretation and geophysical programs using CSAMT, ground magnetics, IP-Resistivity and gravity.

  • In Bulgaria, drilling has been ongoing at the Saje Project, which is sole-funded by a Private Mining Company; approximately 1,000 meters has been completed in three drill holes with assays pending.

  • In Serbia, Mundoro and Freeport-McMoran Exploration Corporation (“Freeport”) are at the planning stage for a field program to commence in Q4-2018 on the Freeport-Mundoro JV Project (Figure 1) which will be sole-funded by Freeport.
     
  • In Serbia, Mundoro has completed follow up geochemical analysis and ground geophysical surveys to further define the prospective targets on the Sumrakovac and Osnic licenses (Figure 1).  Mundoro is planning for a small drill program on the Osnic license in Q4-2018 in order to upgrade the targets.

Update on Third Party Discussions

Mundoro has entered into the following transactions for its licenses in Serbia and Bulgaria:

  • an earn-in agreement with JOGMEC in which Mundoro has granted to JOGMEC an earn-in option on four of Mundoro’s Serbian exploration licenses: Dubrava, Padina, Borsko Jezero and Zeleznik located within the northern portion of the Timok Magmatic Complex in northeastern Serbia. 
  • an earn-in agreement with Freeport, in which Mundoro has granted to Freeport an earn-in option on two of Mundoro’s Serbian exploration licenses: Savinac and Bacevica located within the southern portion of the Timok Magmatic Complex in northeastern Serbia.  The earn-in agreement transaction with Freeport is subject to closing conditions as outlined in Mundoro’s press release dated July 30, 2018.
  • an option agreement with a Private Mining Company on Mundoro’s Saje Project located within the Zvezda license in southeastern Bulgaria.

The Company continues to have discussions regarding future joint ventures for Mundoro’s two Timok South licenses, Sumrakovac and Osnic, and licenses in Bulgaria.  Although there are ongoing discussions, the Company cannot provide assurance that a transaction will be concluded as a result of these discussions.
