Santo Domingo.– Precipitate Gold Corp. reported that a crew of three, including VP Exploration Michael Moore and Technical Advisor J. Campbell Graham, traveled to the Dominican Republic to carry out initial reconnaissance on the Juan de Herrera concession, adjacent to GoldQuest's Tireo volcanic belt holdings.

Precipitate's in-country geologist had already visited local landowners and received widespread support and permission to access the project area. The short program focused on ground proofing a number of anomalies, apparent satellite imagery structures and site specific verification of the Tireo volcanics lithological contact.

According to Michael Moore, Precipitate's VP Exploration, the short reconnaissance program was successful in confirming geological contacts in the area of historic sampling by GoldQuest as well as establishing us in-country and providing critical information about access and logistics.

"Our first Dominican trip has laid important groundwork for the follow up program that will begin next month. Once we return with a full crew we should be able to rapidly generate targets and focus areas for ongoing exploration in the region," he added.
