Auryn Resumes Trenching at Sombrero Copper-Gold Project
(PresseBox) - Auryn Resources Inc. (TSX: AUG, NYSE AMERICAN: AUG, ?Auryn? or the ?Company? - http://www.commodity-tv.net/c/search_adv/?v=298815) is pleased to announce that it has resumed trenching at its Sombrero copper-gold project located in southern Peru. Trenching has commenced at the Fierrazo claims and will continue through the Nioc, Good Lucky, Totora and Milpoc high priority target areas (Figure 1).
A Message from Ivan Bebek, Executive Chairman and Director:
?This is an exciting start to 2019 as we resume our surface and trenching programs on new target areas at Sombrero. With its scale, geophysical signatures and the extensively mapped and sampled copper-gold mineralization, Sombrero is a unique, never-before-drilled opportunity for significant discovery.
?In the coming months we look forward to receiving continuous surface results from Sombrero in addition to results from our machine learning and targeting at Committee Bay.?
About the Fierrazo Target:
Auryn optioned the Fierrazo concession at the end of last year (see Dec. 19, 2018 news release). It is located 1.5 km northeast of the Company?s Sombrero Main prospect, where the bulk of surface work to date has occurred.
The Fierrazo concession has seen modest historical mining for iron ore; however, Auryn?s technical team recognizes potential for the copper-gold system defined at the Sombrero Main prospect to extend onto Fierrazo.
Michael Henrichsen, P.Geo, COO of Auryn, is the Qualified Person who assumes responsibility for the technical disclosures in this press release.
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF AURYN RESOURCES INC.
Ivan Bebek

About Sombrero
This project consists of the North Sombrero and South Sombrero properties, comprising approximately 100,000 mineral claims owned or optioned by Auryn Resources. The copper-gold Sombrero mining concessions are located 340 kilometers SE of Lima in southern Peru and are hosted in the Andahuaylas-Yauri belt. This belt is interpreted to be on the north-western margins of this Eocene-Oligocene aged copper-gold porphyry and skarn belt that hosts the Las Bambas, Haquira, Los Chancas, Cotambambas, Constancia, Antapaccay and Tintaya deposits. The project is characterized by a strong structural control and significant copper and gold values from historical surface samples. The principle targets at Sombrero are copper-gold skarn and porphyry systems and precious metal epithermal deposits.
