Oceanus Resources (OCN-V) Sept 17, 14 is pleased to announce assay results from the recently completed drilling program at the La Lajita property in Durango, Mexico. The program consisted of twenty-one (21) holes totaling 3,002.5 meters of PQ triple tube core (PQ3) diamond drill core at the Santo Nino and Dos Hermanos Prospects. Santo Nino Prospect Returns More High Grade Results Six holes totaling 1,143.9 meters were drilled at Santo Nino to test the down dip extension of the high-grade ore shoot intersected by the discovery hole OCN-13-005 which returned 7.1 g/t gold and 48.8 g/t silver over a core length of 20.0 meters, including 18.9 g/t gold and 71.3 g/t silver over a core length of 6.5 meters in greenish quartz breccia with visible gold. Highlighted assay results from Santo Nino include the following: -3.13 g/t gold and 22.3 g/t silver over a core length of 26.0 meters, including 7.42 g/t gold and 34.5 g/t silver over a core length of 10.5 meters in ddh OCN-14-026 -2.08 g/t gold and 25.3 g/t silver over a core length of 28.0 meters, including 5.92 g/t gold and 46.1 g/t silver over a core length of 8.9 meters in ddh OCN-14-008 -1.50 g/t gold and 17.4 g/t silver over a core length of 25.3 meters, including 11.80 g/t gold and 63.0 g/t silver over a core length of 2.5 meters in ddh OCN-14-027 Dos Hermanos Strike Length Extended Seven holes totaling 882.1 meters were drilled at the Dos Hermanos Prospect, four holes totaling 470.6 meters were also drilled at the northern strike extension of Dos Hermanos and four holes totaling 505.9 meters were also drilled at the southern strike extension at Dos Hermanos. The drilling completed has effectively doubled the strike length of the mineralized zone at Dos Hermanos to 225 meters. Highlighted assay results from the Dos Hermanos north extension include the following: -0.81 g/t gold and 18.5 g/t silver over a core length of 24.5 meters, including 2.57 g/t gold and 27.8 g/t silver over a core length of 5.5 meters in ddh OCN-14-022 -0.82 g/t gold and 21.6 g/t silver over a core length of 29.5 meters, including 5.13 g/t gold and 42.8 g/t silver over a core length of 2.0 meter in ddh OCN-14-024 Historically drilling at the Dos Hermanos Propect was impacted by low sample recovery in the breccia zones. In an attempt to improve core recovery, Oceanus switched from NQ to HQ to PQ3 core size, but 100% core recovery was not achieved. Oceanus will continue to seek measures to improve core recovery by controlled drilling with specialty muds and face discharge bits when drilling resumes. Drill results from the recently completed drill program are attached in a table as Appendix A. Mr. Glenn Jessome, President and CEO of Oceanus, commented: "We are beginning to define the down dip extension of the high grade ore shoot at the Santo Nino prospect. The new holes confirm the high grade mineralization cut in the 2013 discovery hole OCN-13-005 continues down dip towards the contact with the Lower Volcanic Complex. The strike extension at Dos Hermanos is significant. The widths and grades at Dos Hermanos have resulted in us beginning modelling to determine if the upper portion of the zone could be a starter pit. Our plans are to resume drilling at the exciting new Santo Nino gold prospect mid-October of this year." Fall 2014 Program Following on the success of the summer 2014 drill campaign Oceanus will begin drilling again mid-October, 2014, with the first six to eight holes to test the down-dip extension of the Santo Nino high-grade ore shoot and in particular follow up the high-grade intercepts encountered in drill holes 5, 8, 26 and 27. A detailed structural mapping project will be carried out in the area of the Santo Nino ore shoot. In October, 2014 a program consisting of geological mapping, prospecting and channel sampling will be undertaken along the 6 kilometer north-west trending fault to identify additional prospects. Oceanus will also be testing the other know gold prospects on the property including a trenching program at the Zanjas Prospect, where the Company's geologists observed visible gold in outcrop (i.e. quartz breccia) last year. La Lajita Property The La Lajita Property comprises 12 mining concessions held under option located in the south-west corner of Durango State, Mexico, along the western flanks of the Sierra Madre Occidental. This area is recognized as an extremely prospective mineral belt for gold and silver deposits. Furthermore, this area is a virgin district having never been discovered or worked by the Spanish and there are no historic mining records. There are numerous pits, adits and small shafts that have been developed by local gambusinos during the 1900's and artisanal mining in the area continues to this day. Detailed geological mapping and channel sampling program completed by Oceanus has confirmed the presence of seven (7) gold-silver prospects along the La Lajita fault system which has been traced along surface for over three kilometers. These prospects from north to south are; La Fortuna, Esperanza, Santo Nino, Dos Hermanos, Mina la Guadalupe, Las Ratones and the Cerro del Sol. At Mina la Guadalupe, gold mineralization has been exposed for 200 meters on surface in numerous small scale workings, and in one significant underground working, where the miners drifted in the high-grade gold mineralization 120 meters along strike. Gold and silver mineralization at the Santo Nino prospect is associated with a 20 to 30 meter thick siliceous breccia occurring along a west dipping fault. The fault dislocates a largely felsic to andesitic sequence of tuffaceous rocks of the Upper Volcanic Complex. The gold bearing system at Santo Nino is hosted by a brecciated, maroon andesite that has two generations of gold-bearing quartz, a green siliceous breccia variety and a white quartz vein variety. The green siliceous breccia is typically auriferous with visible gold and is enveloped by a broader mineralized white quartz zone. Lab Preparation and Assay Oceanus samples are prepared and assayed by Activation Laboratories Ltd. ("Actlabs"). Actlabs is a CAN-P-1579, CAN-P-4E (ISO/IEC 17025:2005) accredited laboratory and independent of Oceanus. The sealed and tagged sample bags are turned over to ActLabs personnel at the site who transport them to the ActLabs facility in Zacatecas, Mexico. ActLabs crushes the samples and prepares 200-300 gram pulp samples with ninety percent of the pulp passing Tyler 150 mesh (106?m). The pulps are assayed for gold using a 50 gram charge by fire assay (Code 1A2-50) and over limits greater than 3 grams per tonne are re-assayed using a gravimetric finish (Code 1A3-50). Silver is completed using total digestion Code ME-4 acid procedure and over limits greater than 100 ppm are fire assayed using a gravimetric finish (Code 1A3-50). Copper analysis is completed using the total digestion Code ME-4 acid procedure. Gold screen metallic assays are completed using the Code 1A4-1000 procedure. Quality Assurance/Quality Control and Data Verification Quality assurance and quality control procedures include the systematic insertion of blanks, standards and duplicates into the sample strings. The results of the assaying of the QA/QC material included in each batch are tracked to ensure the integrity of the assay data. All results stated in this announcement have passed Oceanus's quality assurance and quality control ("QA/QC") protocols. David R. Duncan, P. Geo., a director of the Company, is the Qualified Person for Oceanus as defined under National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Duncan has reviewed the scientific and technical information in this press release.
