Vancouver, BC - TheNewswire - August 30, 2023 – Durango Resources Inc. (TSXV:DGO) (Frankfurt:86A1) (OTC:ATOXF), (the “Company” or “Durango”) provides an exploration update on its wholly owned Québec properties.

Due to the exceptional forest fires occurring in the Eeyou-Istchee James Bay region of northern Québec this summer it has been challenging to carry out mineral exploration work on Durango’s Québec properties. Québec Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests (Ministère des Ressources naturelles et des Forêts), announced prohibitions regarding forest access on crown land and closed roads for public safety several times this summer which led Durango to pause its planned work programs. Durango is currently in the process of scheduling its mapping and drill programs for the fall of 2023 when site access is attainable.

The Ministère des Ressources naturelles et des Forêts announced an extended claim validity period for an additional 12 months on existing mineral claims effective August 14, 2023, due to the ongoing forest fires and road closures. Additional updates will be announced as soon as they become available on the upcoming exploration programs.
