Update on the Yago Project

The wholly owned Mexican subsidiaries of Almaden Resources Corporation and Fairfield Minerals Ltd. have yet to resolve outstanding differences with the previous drill contractor at their joint ventured Yago gold-silver property in Nayarit, Mexico.

The drill is still on the property and the companies wish to use this equipment with another contractor.
If the issues are resolved shortly drilling will proceed. If there is further delay, the program will not start until the new year.
