Durango Samples 79 Outcrops at Nemaska, Quebec $DGO.ca

• Pegmatites were discovered and mapped and some samples sent for assay from its group of lithium claims located near Nemaska, Quebec
• On the West block of claims, a few outcrops were located close to the southern boundary of Nemaska Lithium boundary and were made up of granite.

Vancouver, BC / September 13, 2016 – Durango Resources Inc. (TSX.V-DGO), (the “Company” or “Durango”) reports that further to its news release of September 8, 2016, pegmatites were discovered and mapped and some samples sent for assay from its group of lithium claims located near Nemaska, Quebec.

The pegmatites were discovered on the North, South and Eastern blocks of Durango’s claims in the recently completed program. On the West block of claims, a few outcrops were located close to the southern boundary of Nemaska Lithium boundary and were made up of granite.

Durango’s professional exploration team made a total of two hundred outcrop discoveries on its four claim blocks. The outcrops were examined by rock breaking and hand lens observation. From the 200 outcrop discoveries, a total of seventy-nine were sampled and sent for assay. Eight blank samples were also added and sent in for assay as Quality Assurance and Quality Control.

Nemaska Lithium Inc. announced on September 6, 2016 that drilling southwest of the deposit intercepted lithium rich pegmatite dykes at shallow depth. With the abundance of historical work completed on Nemaska’s immediate deposit area, Nemaska Lithium has proven that step out drilling from the known deposit area has discovered lithium rich pegmatite dykes below the overburden.

Marcy Kiesman, CEO of Durango, comments, “Nemaska Lithium’s success on the drill intercepts announced on September 6, 2016 may suggest the pegmatite dykes beneath overburden are pervasive, or without interruption. Drill intercepts were made where no pegmatite dykes are outcropping, so Durango plans to plot the current drilling data to derive any potential projections onto Durango’s neighboring claims.”

Durango expects results from its program to be released in the near future and will provide a news release once the results have been processed.
