(TSX VENTURE: PCR) ("Pinecrest" or the "Company) is pleased to announce that a Phase 1 exploration program has begun on the Company's Espiritu polymetallic vein/breccia project, Sonora, Mexico. Pursuant to the terms of an option agreement with Kootenay Gold Inc. (TSX VENTURE: KTN) ("Kootenay Gold"), Pinecrest can earn a 50% interest in the 10,000 ha Espiritu project by spending $1.0 million on exploration over a four year period and by issuing up to 750,000 common shares of Pinecrest over 3 years. Pinecrest is the operator on the project (see Pinecrest News Release dated February 28th, 2011).
The Phase 1 exploration program will focus on the south-western portion of the property where mineralization is characterised by veins, breccias and stockworks anomalous in silver, gold, copper, lead and zinc. The main mineralization in the south-west is defined by several zones spread along a two km length. Fifty-eight grab samples were collected by Kootenay Gold in 2009-2010 within the west, central and eastern parts of the southwest polymetallic vein/breccia zone. The polymetallic veins averaged 226 g/t Ag, 1.58% Pb, 1.57% Zn associated with 0.18 g/t Au and 0.15% Cu. The current exploration program on the Espiritu property will include prospecting, geological mapping, trenching, rock chip sampling and diamond drilling of high priority targets.
