:ADGD) is pleased to announce it has completed its drilling campaign on the Winicocha Project in Peru. The drilling program was extended from a planned 3,000 metres to 3,640 metres completed over 11 drillholes. The extension of the drilling program, in terms of drilling depth and number of drillholes, was based on favorable porphyry and skarn-style geology being encountered in all drillholes. The drilling program tested a strike length of 2.5 km on the eastern side of the project area. Drillhole depths ranged from 207 metres to 435 metres.

Drillcore recovery was excellent and a credit to the quality control procedures executed by both the on-site geologists and the drilling contractor, Bradley-MDH. Drillcore has been cut by diamond saw, sampled on-site, and sent to ALS-Chemex for analysis. The analysis of sample results and geological compilation of the drilling program is expected to be complete in approximately five weeks.
