    VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Sept. 3, 2015) - Riverside Resources Inc. ("Riverside" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:RRI)(OTC PINK:RVSDF)(FRANKFURT:R99) is pleased with recent exploration work at the Company's Glor Gold Project (the "Project"), located approximately 8 km west of Alamos Gold's El Chanate Gold Mine in Sonora, Mexico. Riverside's recent work included geologic mapping, 44-line kilometers of ground magnetics and rock geochemical sampling. Five drill-ready target zones have been identified. The targets include Alamo, Alamo South, Joya, Pitaya, San Pedro, and Poblado. The targets have key characteristics similar to other major known gold mines in the region and being adjacent to the active operations at Chanate with similar geologic stratigraphy and structure makes Glor a priority district that warrants additional work.

    Gold mineralization at Glor, similar to the Chanate Mine, occurs with quartz veins and in quartz-sericite-pyrite (QSP) altered zones spatially associated with major fault zones and secondary splay structures which have been oxidized at the surface. Two principal types of faults are present, a west-northwest trending, low-angle fault dipping to the southwest, which is interpreted to be a thrust fault complex similar in orientation and style to the La Choya Gold Mine. A second high-angle north-northwest trending fault system is also present, similar to controlling structures at Chanate.

    Felsic and intermediate composition dikes and small intrusive bodies are spatially associated with both thrust and high-angle faults and alteration is generally stronger near these dikes and within the fault zones, which is not uncommon at nearby mines in Sonora. At Glor, gold bearing quartz veins, sheeted veins, and quartz vein stockworks occur in both fault settings and assays indicate gold values in the narrow quartz veins range from <0.005 g/t to 18.2 g/t Au inside of larger shears. Gold also occurs in QSP altered rocks with only minor quartz veinlets or without quartz veining at all, and these values range from <0.005 g/t to 6.63 g/t Au in channel samples up to 3 metres long.
