El Tigre Infill Drilling
Since commencing drilling in July through December 15, 2016, Oceanus
completed 35 diamond drill holes totalling 6,467 meters of HQ-size core in
the first phase of the infill program carried out primarily in the central area
of the El Tigre deposit over the past-producing El Tigre Mine. Diamond
drilling resumed on January 10, 2017 after a three week break for the
holidays. This second phase of the drilling program currently has one drill
rig working to test the southern extension of the deposit and the other rig
drilling the 500 meter gap to the north between the camp and Mula
Mountain. Oceanus has completed another 17 diamond drill holes totalling
2,959 meters of HQ-size core during January and February and anticipates
another 15 holes will be drilled during March to complete drilling on the infill
sections.
A drill hole location map is attached as Appendix A, a table of significant
drill intersections is attached as Appendix B and the drill hole location data
is attached as Appendix C.
El Tigre 2017 Resource Estimation
The results from the Oceanus drilling, prior drilling and all other data will be
incorporated into a NI 43-101 compliant resource estimation for the El Tigre
project to be completed by P&E Mining Consultants Inc. during the second
quarter of 2017.
Prospecting Work – Protectora Area
Field mapping and prospecting surveys are in progress along the
Protectora Vein system located approximately 1.5 kilometers to the north of
the El Tigre camp. Quartz vein and stockwork zones, located near
historical workings, are located within an advanced argillic alteration
zone. Gold and silver mineralization was discovered along this vein and
stockwork zone in diamond drill holes by Anaconda in 1982 (hole ET-82-
009 intersected 25 meters of 0.36 g/t gold and 10.2 g/t silver from 127.0
meters to 152.0 meters, including 2.7 meters of 2.14 g/t gold and 30.5 g/t
silver from 127.3 meters to 130.0 meters) and El Tigre Silver Corp. in 2013
(hole ET-13-019 intersected 2 meters of 1.41 g/t gold and 421.7 g/t silver
from 86.0 meters to 88.0 meters). Oceanus intends to drill test this zone
after completing the infill drilling along the El Tigre vein.
Metallurgical Testwork
A metallurgical testwork study is underway. Bottle roll tests on drill core
reject and pulp material from Oceanus diamond drill hole ET-16-083 will be
completed by Actlabs. Also, new samples will be collected from
underground from the walls of the Johnny Cross Cut (section 4400N)
where channel sampling by Oceanus in 2016 produced an intersection of
92.6 meters of 1.18 g/t gold equivalent consisting of 0.76 g/t gold and 31.5
g/t silver. Bottle rolls and column tests will be carried out at the Laboratorio
Tecnologico de Metalurgia in Hermosillo, Mexico.
Geophysical Survey
In December 2017, Oceanus retained Geofisica TMC to carry out an
orientation IP survey at El Tigre. A total of 7.4 line kilometers of pole:dipole
survey was completed on 5 lines crossing the vein, stockwork and fracture
system. The surveys were completed in January 2017. Lines 7315N and
6745N tested the Fundadora and Protectora veins located several
kilometers to the north of the El Tigre mine while the three southern Lines
5150N, 4150N and 3310N tested the Camp, Mula Mountain and Gold Hill
zones, respectively. All five lines are showing chargeability highs and
resistivity lows associated with the vein and stockwork/fracture zones.
2016 Highlight Intercepts
The following table presents highlight drill intercepts from both the Oceanus
infill gap sampling on the legacy El Tigre drill core and the Oceanus 2016
(phase 1) drilling program. The legacy drill holes relating to the infill gap
sampling program are referenced ET-10, ET-12 and ET-13, and the drill
holes from the 2016 drill program are referenced ET-16.

El Tigre Property
The El Tigre Property lies at the northern end of the Sierra Madre gold belt
which hosts many of the larger multi-million ounce epithermal gold and
silver deposits including Ocampo, Pinos Altos, Dolores and Palmarejo. In
1896, gold was first discovered on the property in the Gold Hill area and
mining started with the Brown Shaft in 1903. The focus soon changed to
mining high-grade silver veins in the area with the majority of the
production coming from the El Tigre vein. Underground mining on the El
Tigre vein extended 1,450 meters along strike and mined on 14 levels to a
depth of 450 meters. By the time the mine closed in 1938, it is reported to
have produced a total of 353,000 ounces of gold and 67.4 million ounces of
silver from 1.87 million tons (Craig, 2012).
The El Tigre Property is approximately 35 kilometers long and comprises
21,842.78 hectares. The El Tigre gold and silver deposit is related to a
series of high-grade epithermal veins controlled by a north-south trending
structure cutting across the andesitic and rhyolitic tuffs of the Sierra Madre
Volcanic Complex within a broad gold and silver mineralized prophylitic
alternation zone. The veins dip steeply to the west and are typically 1 meter
wide but locally can be up to 5 meters in width. The veins, structures and
mineralized zones outcrop on surface and have been traced for a distance
of 5.3 kilometers along strike. Historical mining and exploration activities
focused on a 1.5 kilometer portion of the southern end of the deposits,
principally on the El Tigre, Seitz Kelly and Sooy veins. Four veins in the
north (Aguila, Escondida, Fundadora and Protectora) were explored with
only limited amounts of production.
Lab Preparation and Assay
The diamond drill core (HQ size) is geologically logged, photographed and
marked for sampling. When the sample lengths are determined, the full
core is sawn with a diamond blade core saw with one-third of the core
being bagged and tagged for assay. The remaining two-thirds portion is
returned to the core trays for storage and/or for metallurgical test work.
The sealed and tagged sample bags are transported to the ActLabs facility
in Zacatecas, Mexico. ActLabs crushes the samples and prepares 200-300
gram pulp samples with ninety percent passing Tyler 150 mesh
(106μm). The pulps are assayed for gold using a 50 gram charge by fire
assay (Code 1A2-50) and over limits greater than 10 grams per tonne are
re-assayed using a gravimetric finish (Code 1A3-50). Silver and multi-
element analysis is completed using total digestion (Code 1F2 Total
Digestion ICP).
Quality Assurance / Quality Control and Data Verification
Quality assurance and quality control ("QA/QC") procedures monitor the
chain-of-custody of the samples and includes the systematic insertion and
monitoring of appropriate reference materials (certified standards, blanks
and duplicates) into the sample strings. The results of the assaying of the
QA/QC material included in each batch are tracked to ensure the integrity
of the assay data. All results stated in this announcement have passed
Oceanus’ QA/QC protocols.

Oceanus reports el tigre infill drilling results and timing for resource estimate update

  • 1. Oceanus Reports El Tigre Infill Drilling Results and Timing for Resource Estimate Update HALIFAX, Nova Scotia, March 06, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Oceanus Resources Corporation (TSXV:OCN) (OTCQB:OCNSF) ("Oceanus" or the “Company”) reports additional assay results from the ongoing infill diamond drilling program on its 100% owned El Tigre Property in Sonora, Mexico. Highlights from the drilling include the following:  Hole ET-16-110 – 102 meters of 0.67 g/t gold equivalent from 22.2 meters to 123.9 meters and consisting of 0.5 g/t gold and 13.4 g/t silver; including 13.5 meters of 1.03 g/t gold equivalent consisting of 0.95 g/t gold and 6.3 g/t silver.  Hole ET-17-118 – 32.9 meters of 1.02 g/t gold equivalent 7.3 meters to 40.1 meters and consisting of 0.27 g/t gold and 56.7 g/t silver; including 8.6 meters of 3.28 g/t gold equivalent consisting of 0.47 g/t gold and 211.4 g/t silver.  Hole ET-16-116 – 25.7 meters of 1.03 g/t gold equivalent from 83.4 meters to 109.0 meters and consisting of 0.54 g/t gold and 36.9 g/t silver; including 4.3 meters of 3.49 g/t gold equivalent consisting of 1.58 g/t gold and 143.0 g/t silver. El Tigre Infill Drilling Since commencing drilling in July through December 15, 2016, Oceanus completed 35 diamond drill holes totalling 6,467 meters of HQ-size core in the first phase of the infill program carried out primarily in the central area of the El Tigre deposit over the past-producing El Tigre Mine. Diamond drilling resumed on January 10, 2017 after a three week break for the holidays. This second phase of the drilling program currently has one drill rig working to test the southern extension of the deposit and the other rig drilling the 500 meter gap to the north between the camp and Mula
  • 2. Mountain. Oceanus has completed another 17 diamond drill holes totalling 2,959 meters of HQ-size core during January and February and anticipates another 15 holes will be drilled during March to complete drilling on the infill sections. A drill hole location map is attached as Appendix A, a table of significant drill intersections is attached as Appendix B and the drill hole location data is attached as Appendix C. El Tigre 2017 Resource Estimation The results from the Oceanus drilling, prior drilling and all other data will be incorporated into a NI 43-101 compliant resource estimation for the El Tigre project to be completed by P&E Mining Consultants Inc. during the second quarter of 2017. Prospecting Work – Protectora Area Field mapping and prospecting surveys are in progress along the Protectora Vein system located approximately 1.5 kilometers to the north of the El Tigre camp. Quartz vein and stockwork zones, located near historical workings, are located within an advanced argillic alteration zone. Gold and silver mineralization was discovered along this vein and stockwork zone in diamond drill holes by Anaconda in 1982 (hole ET-82- 009 intersected 25 meters of 0.36 g/t gold and 10.2 g/t silver from 127.0 meters to 152.0 meters, including 2.7 meters of 2.14 g/t gold and 30.5 g/t silver from 127.3 meters to 130.0 meters) and El Tigre Silver Corp. in 2013 (hole ET-13-019 intersected 2 meters of 1.41 g/t gold and 421.7 g/t silver from 86.0 meters to 88.0 meters). Oceanus intends to drill test this zone after completing the infill drilling along the El Tigre vein. Metallurgical Testwork A metallurgical testwork study is underway. Bottle roll tests on drill core reject and pulp material from Oceanus diamond drill hole ET-16-083 will be completed by Actlabs. Also, new samples will be collected from underground from the walls of the Johnny Cross Cut (section 4400N) where channel sampling by Oceanus in 2016 produced an intersection of 92.6 meters of 1.18 g/t gold equivalent consisting of 0.76 g/t gold and 31.5
  • 3. g/t silver. Bottle rolls and column tests will be carried out at the Laboratorio Tecnologico de Metalurgia in Hermosillo, Mexico. Geophysical Survey In December 2017, Oceanus retained Geofisica TMC to carry out an orientation IP survey at El Tigre. A total of 7.4 line kilometers of pole:dipole survey was completed on 5 lines crossing the vein, stockwork and fracture system. The surveys were completed in January 2017. Lines 7315N and 6745N tested the Fundadora and Protectora veins located several kilometers to the north of the El Tigre mine while the three southern Lines 5150N, 4150N and 3310N tested the Camp, Mula Mountain and Gold Hill zones, respectively. All five lines are showing chargeability highs and resistivity lows associated with the vein and stockwork/fracture zones. 2016 Highlight Intercepts The following table presents highlight drill intercepts from both the Oceanus infill gap sampling on the legacy El Tigre drill core and the Oceanus 2016 (phase 1) drilling program. The legacy drill holes relating to the infill gap sampling program are referenced ET-10, ET-12 and ET-13, and the drill holes from the 2016 drill program are referenced ET-16. These drill results exhibit wide oxidized zones of precious-metals mineralization that outcrop at surface.

  • 4. width is generally estimated at 75-90% of drilled width. Metallurgical recoveries and net smelter returns are assumed to be 100% (2) Gold Equivalent ratio based on gold to silver price ratio of 75:1 Ag:Au. El Tigre Property The El Tigre Property lies at the northern end of the Sierra Madre gold belt which hosts many of the larger multi-million ounce epithermal gold and silver deposits including Ocampo, Pinos Altos, Dolores and Palmarejo. In 1896, gold was first discovered on the property in the Gold Hill area and mining started with the Brown Shaft in 1903. The focus soon changed to mining high-grade silver veins in the area with the majority of the production coming from the El Tigre vein. Underground mining on the El Tigre vein extended 1,450 meters along strike and mined on 14 levels to a depth of 450 meters. By the time the mine closed in 1938, it is reported to have produced a total of 353,000 ounces of gold and 67.4 million ounces of silver from 1.87 million tons (Craig, 2012). The El Tigre Property is approximately 35 kilometers long and comprises 21,842.78 hectares. The El Tigre gold and silver deposit is related to a series of high-grade epithermal veins controlled by a north-south trending structure cutting across the andesitic and rhyolitic tuffs of the Sierra Madre Volcanic Complex within a broad gold and silver mineralized prophylitic alternation zone. The veins dip steeply to the west and are typically 1 meter wide but locally can be up to 5 meters in width. The veins, structures and mineralized zones outcrop on surface and have been traced for a distance of 5.3 kilometers along strike. Historical mining and exploration activities focused on a 1.5 kilometer portion of the southern end of the deposits, principally on the El Tigre, Seitz Kelly and Sooy veins. Four veins in the north (Aguila, Escondida, Fundadora and Protectora) were explored with only limited amounts of production. Lab Preparation and Assay The diamond drill core (HQ size) is geologically logged, photographed and marked for sampling. When the sample lengths are determined, the full core is sawn with a diamond blade core saw with one-third of the core being bagged and tagged for assay. The remaining two-thirds portion is returned to the core trays for storage and/or for metallurgical test work.
  • 5. The sealed and tagged sample bags are transported to the ActLabs facility in Zacatecas, Mexico. ActLabs crushes the samples and prepares 200-300 gram pulp samples with ninety percent passing Tyler 150 mesh (106μm). The pulps are assayed for gold using a 50 gram charge by fire assay (Code 1A2-50) and over limits greater than 10 grams per tonne are re-assayed using a gravimetric finish (Code 1A3-50). Silver and multi- element analysis is completed using total digestion (Code 1F2 Total Digestion ICP). Quality Assurance / Quality Control and Data Verification Quality assurance and quality control ("QA/QC") procedures monitor the chain-of-custody of the samples and includes the systematic insertion and monitoring of appropriate reference materials (certified standards, blanks and duplicates) into the sample strings. The results of the assaying of the QA/QC material included in each batch are tracked to ensure the integrity of the assay data. All results stated in this announcement have passed Oceanus’ QA/QC protocols. Qualified Person David R. Duncan, P. Geo., V.P.
