Pershimco Discovers Higher Grade Gold at Surface with 45 Metres Grading 2.01 g/t Gold South of the LaPava Target, Cerro Quema Gold-Copper Project (Panama)
Rouyn Noranda, La Belle Province - 11/23/11) - Pershimco Res., PRO/TSXV is pleased to announce the discovery of higher grade gold at surface south of the La Pava
Target during the 2011 exploration drilling at the Company's Cerro Quema Gold-Copper Project
in Panama.
New assay results, part of the LaPava Target validation drilling, includes two new Reverse Circulation ("RC") intervals of 45 metres grading 2.01 g/t Gold (# PRH11021)
and 43 metres grading 2.08 g/t Gold (# PRH11022) (refer to the assay interval table below for additional interval results). These new results are part of the mineral
resources expansion drilling at the LaPava Target and were drilled along the southern segment of the LaPava Dome. The southern slope of the LaPava Target is steeper and
access roads and platforms are presently being prepared to access the newly discovered zone. The success of the RC drilling at LaPava Target could have a significant and
positive impact on the mineral resources in the oxide zone.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control ("QA/QC")
Core from the diamond and RC drill holes are transported by Pershimco technical personnel from the drill sites to the Cerro Quema Core Shack. There, qualified geologists and
technicians log, sample tag and half-split the core in 1 metre lengths using stationary saws. Individual sampled intervals of half-split core are then inserted in tagged and
sealed plastic bags, and sent to the Activation Laboratories (Actlabs) sample preparation facilities in Panama. Individual samples are inventoried by Actlabs personnel, dried,
finely crushed to 70% at <2 mm, then pulverized to 85% at <75 µm, and riffle-split to 150 grams. One standard, one Duplicate and one Blank are inserted every 15 samples.
Prepared samples are then inserted in sealed 5-gallon plastic pails then shipped by courier services to the Activation Laboratories main facilities in Ancaster (Ontario, Canada)
for assaying using the Multi-element ICP Method and the Pyro-analysis Method with Atomic Absorption Finish for Gold, Silver and Copper. Re-assays are done on samples with results
greater than to 2.5 g/t Gold and greater than 10,000 ppm Copper.
