    COLORADO SPRINGS, CO--(Marketwired - Dec 1, 2015) - Gold Resource Corporation (NYSE MKT: GORO) (the "Company") acquired an option to purchase a gold bearing property in Nevada, USA held by Silver Reserve Corporation (SRC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Infrastructure Materials Corp. (TSX VENTURE: IFM) (OTC PINK: IFAM). Gold Resource Corporation is a gold and silver producer with operations in Oaxaca, Mexico and exploration in Nevada, USA. The Company has returned over $107 million to shareholders in monthly dividends since commercial production commenced July 1, 2010, and offers shareholders the option to convert their cash dividends into physical gold and silver and take delivery. 

    The Company is referring to the newly-optioned claims as the "Gold Mesa" property, a portion of which includes the gold property historically known as the Clay Peters Project. Gold Mesa covers an area of approximately 1,780 acres consisting of 89 unpatented claims and 3 patented claims in central Nevada's Walker Lane Mineral Belt in Mineral County, Nevada. The property is located 17 miles south-southwest of the Company's Radar and Goose properties and will become the Company's third exploration property in its Nevada Mining Unit. Gold Resource Corporation's Nevada Mining Unit now controls approximately 5,480 acres of exploration lands in south central Nevada's Walker Lane Mineral Belt.

    A small portion of the property's claims were mined historically on a very small scale as an underground mine in the early 1900's and as a small open pit mine in the late 1980's. More recently, according to an IFAM news release dated January 16, 2013, surface drilling on the property returned significant gold grades near surface, including 2.42 grams per tonne (g/t) gold over 9.1 meters starting at 7.6 meters down hole and 1.72 g/t gold over 18.3 meters starting at 36.6 meters down hole. These grades are in line with surface samples taken by the Company running as high as 2.51 g/t gold (assayed by ALS USA Inc., Reno, Nevada). The property has potential for a high grade gold open pit, or multiple gold open pits with mineralization at shallow depths below surface. Existing infrastructure includes nearby electricity, road access and potential water from a historic well located on the property. Historical metallurgical test work by N.A. Degerstrom Inc. in 1986 showed up to 88% recovery of contained gold and up to 35% recovery of contained silver obtained by a 35 mesh grind and agglomeration.
