Castle Gold announced initial assay results from the remaining 13 of its 19 hole Phase 1 reverse circulation drill program aimed at expanding the gold resource to the south and south-east of the open pit at the El Castillo gold mine in Durango State, Mexico. The best intersection of this second set of drill holes was in drill hole CA – 231 which intersected 42.7m grading 0.72 g/t Au from 54.9m to 97.5m drill hole depth. All but two of the 13 remaining drill holes from the program intersected gold mineralized intervals from surface to depths of as much as 146.3m intersection length at gold grades above the resource cut-off grade (0.15 g/t Au) used to calculate the El Castillo mine gold resource and reserves
