    Scorpio Gold reports results from their 2016 exploration drilling campaign at the Paris target at Mineral Ridge, Nevada.

    Vancouver, May 24, 2016 – Scorpio Gold Corporation {TSX-V: SGN} reports results from the 2016 exploration drilling program on the Paris target at its 70% owned Mineral Ridge project, located in Nevada.

    The Paris target is a previously undrilled area located NNW of the Solberry deposit. It was targeted as one of several possible northwest strike extensions of the Drinkwater mineralisation based on rock chip sampling and limited historic underground workings.

    Significant faulting to the northwest of Drinkwater has offset and obscured the Drinkwater trend. First-pass drilling in 2016 intersected mineralisation in 19 of 24 RC holes collared over a 150 x 450 meter area.
    Based on a review of the geology and assay results, Paris is not considered a continuation of the Drinkwater trend.
    No further drilling is currently planned in the Paris target area.
