Brazil Minerals Inc. announced that Jupiter Gold Corporation (‘Jupiter Gold’), expects to begin the initial drilling campaign of its Paracatu Project in or before May 2018. The Paracatu Project encompasses 773 acres and is situated downstream of the gold mine in Brazil, ‘Morro do Ouro’, owned and operated by Kinross Gold, a large global gold miner. Morro do Ouro had an ore body with 16 million ounces of gold; its annual gold production in 2016 was over 480,000 ounces, according to published reports. This initial drilling campaign at the Paracatu Project is set to collect samples at 0.5-meter intervals in six drill holes spaced 50 meters apart. Analytical examination of the samples will be conducted at the premier laboratory in Brazil, used by major gold companies operating locally. The field work should last three weeks and afterwards the analytical reporting may take three months. The Paracatu Project is one of several promising mineral areas held by Brazil Minerals, through subsidiaries. This collection of properties is referred to as the BMIX Mineral Bank, and the related acreage by mineral is listed below. The Company, through its network of local experts, is continuously adding high quality claims to the BMIX Mineral Bank.
