AGORACOM Welcomes Durango Resources (DGO: TSX-V) Capitalizing on the Future of LNG

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 2:28 PM on Wednesday, September 16th, 2015

Recent Highlights

 

  • Acquired two limestone properties in north western British Columbia which have been strategically chosen in an effort to coincide with the LNG projects near Kitimat and Prince Rupert.
  • Both the Mayner’s Fortune property and the Smith Island property have historical occurrences of limestone which will fast track the exploration to production timeline since they are near term producing properties.
  • Mayner’s Fortune property is located 50km away via CN Rail line from the Kitimat Shell Consortium LNG proposed site and hosts a series of 6 north east striking limestone beds which have been reported to be grades as high as 96%.
  • Historical workings have indicated a preliminary 454,000 tonnes of limestone in the first limestone bed nearest to the rail road. The Company has been contacted by CN Rail and they look forward to working with Durango to help move the project forward.
