--->uico silver and gold project, located just 7km south of the city of Guanajuato, Mexico.

--->responsibilities include generating and evaluating new business opportunities and liaising between corporate and techn

--->00,00 options granted to officers and directors of the Company. The options, which shall be vested over a one-year per

--->t of a total remuneration package for directors, officers, advisors and contractors of Vangold.

--->e exclusively from the El Pinguico and El Carmen veins, which are thought to be splays off the Mother Vein, or 'Veta M
--->adre.'
The Veta Madre is associated with a mega fault that outcrops for 25 kilometres and is the most important source of pre
--->cious metal mineralization in the region. The Veta Madre may cross Vangold's property at depth, underneath the high gr
--->ade El Pinguico and El Carmen veins, but very limited drilling has been done on the property and no drilling has attem
--->pted to encounter the Veta Madre at depth.
Historic stockpiles of mineralized material exist on surface and underground at El Pinguico which may potentially prov
--->ide feed to one of several operational mills in the Guanajuato area.
Hernan Dorado, a director of Vangold and a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, Standards of Dis
--->closure for Mineral Projects, has approved the scientific and technical information contained in this news release.
