OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Feb 27, 2014) - Everton Resources Inc. ("Everton" or the "Company") (TSX-VENTURE:EVR)(FRANKFURT:ERV) is pleased to report that Hecla Quebec Inc. ("Hecla"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Hecla Mining Company, has advised Everton that it will start a 4-hole diamond drilling program totalling 1,000 metres on the Wildcat 1 property, adjacent to Goldcorp's Eleonore gold mine in James Bay region of Quebec.

The drilling program will test the Conglo target which is located within the Wildcat 1 claim block where a major gold anomaly in glacial sediments (till), associated with a gold-arsenic anomaly in soil, has been outlined by previous surveys. The area is underlain by the sediments of the low formation and is one of the only areas of the property clearly situated on the LaGrande side of the Sub-Province, a similar display to the Eleonore deposit context.

Hecla has the option to earn up to a 65% interest in the Wildcat 1-9 properties from Everton.
