LAS VEGAS, July 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Calissio Resources Group, Inc. CRGP announced today that the Company entered in to an agreement with Milagros Del Cobre Mineria S.A. de C.V. ("MMC") whereby Calissio Resources Group, Inc. sold 100% of its interest in San Pedro Mine ("San Pedro").

The agreement includes a full release of the Company and its affiliates from all potential claims and liabilities related to San Pedro, and allows Calissio to retain possession of all owned machinery located at San Pedro.

Divesture of the San Pedro Mine will increase shareholder value by providing the Company a significant opportunity to move forward with its master plan at the Company's flagship property, La Jovita Mine. Adam Carter stated, "Our shareholders will gain tremendously because our investment at La Jovita has the significant potential to realize a first-rate long term return on investment. The sale of San Pedro presented itself and as a company, management and the Board of Directors voted it was in the Company's best interest to sell San Pedro and focus a large portion of our efforts at La Jovita Copper Mine, which has been a goal of ours for some time now."    

Calissio also announced that it is in the process of signing an agreement with a respectable engineering and mining firm in Mexico to build facilities and provide high-caliber expertise to place La Jovita Mine into full production. Calissio is also in the final stages of relocating its mining equipment from San Pedro to La Jovita Mine and should be finalized by the end of the month.

"We anticipate announcing the details of this agreement by August 21, 2015. The time has come for the Company to establish a more professional mining team by adding the appropriate expertise to the Board of Directors, as well as, additional key people to meet the expanding needs of Calissio at La Jovita Mine. Going forward, Calissio shareholders can expect to see regular news releases and updates on our move to full production at the 100% owned La Jovita Mine," said Adam Carter, the President & CEO of Calissio.

Additionally, one of the Company's fundamental goals over the next 9 months is to graduate Calissio to a senior U.S. based exchange. The opportunities and benefits of a senior listing are of paramount importance for Calissio to continue its rapid growth strategy.

Calissio Resources Group Inc., focused on the acquisition and development of base metals projects in Mexico that are currently in or near production and advanced exploration properties that will add substantially to the Company's asset foundation.
