Las Vegas, NV -- (ReleaseWire) -- 04/27/2016 --Canyon Gold Corp. (OTCQB:CGCC) (The Company) has completed an extensive market review and analysis into the rapidly growing international concern of weapons being brought into our schools by students.

Today's children are packing more than just books in those stylish backpacks, they're bringing weapons! A recent report stated that in the first 185 days of this academic year more than 185 guns alone were reported to be brought into various schools just in the United States.

Recognizing the urgent security needs of the education sector, and with our recent completion and closing of the acquisition of 'DEFENSE TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION (DTC) www.defensetechnologycorporation.com as a wholly owned subsidiary of Canyon Gold, management has determined to begin production of the "OFFENDER ALERT PASSIVE SCAN"™ which we believe we will provide a solution to this epidemic.

The "Offender Alert Passive Scan"™ is a 'next generation' walk-through detector scanning unit. This patented & trademarked product is an advanced passive scanning system for detecting and identifying concealed threats. The program provides a visual image of where the items are located on the suspect, as well as an approximation of the size of the item (with optional equipment). With cameras available at the facility, the system will instantly relay the image of the suspect, position and time of the offending alert. The picture can be transmitted to security, management or any designated recipient and can be retained in the memory log of the computer.

DTC's Offender Alert Passive Scan is a 'next generation' walk-through detector scanning unit. The DTC scan-system emits nothing through the subject and is passive.

(Scanner systems currently in the market are effectively an X-RAY in some form)
