Azure Minerals Limited is pleased to advise that resource definition drilling of the Companys flagship Oposura Project continues to deliver solid and very encouraging results. The initial mineral resource estimate is due in May and the release of the Scoping Study / Preliminary Economic Assessment is expected in Q3 2018.
Morgan Poliquin, President and CEO of Almaden, stated “We are pleased to have selected SRK and MMTS to conduct the Ixtaca gold-silver project Feasibility Study. Along with greater detail on the feasibility of the project, we are developing a full understanding of social, hydrologic, hydrogeologic and geochemical conditions at the site well in advance of mining activity. This is all based on the work of the independent engineers we have engaged, utilising best practices to international standards and is peer reviewed. ….”
With the significant increase in contained zinc and silver in the indicated resource, San Felipe now becomes a more substantial project in the current zinc market, stated Darren Blasutti, President and CEO of Americas Silver Corporation. The updated estimate at San Felipe highlights potential for another low-capital project for the Company, after our successful start-up of the San Rafael mine and the rapid resource expansion of the silver-rich Zone 120 deposit. We will continue to evaluate San Felipe for its economic merits and strategic fit ahead of making the final payments for the option on the property by the end of the year.
We are very pleased that almost all of the accelerated Warrants were taken up in view of the planned level of exploration activity expected by our joint venture partners on all six of the Companys partnered projects this year, commented Evrims CEO, Paddy Nicol. The proceeds further strengthen our balance sheet and allow for greater flexibility as the Company continues exploration on its wholly-owned Cuale gold project in the months ahead.
The Phase 1 drilling program, which calls for up to 30 holes to be drilled, is designed to confirm modelling and extend the known mineralization of the Main Zone to the north-west and south-east along trend.
“Our Hermosillo-based exploration team, headed by noted geologist Mel Herdrick, has commenced a surface sampling program to define additional zones for a drilling program scheduled to begin during the second half of 2018,” said Kenneth MacLeod, President and CEO of Sonoro. “Our aim is to verify the earlier data and expand the scope and scale of the gold resource indicated in the Corex report.”
Since drilling recommenced on the La Cigarra Project, six holes have been completed within the La Borracha Zone with all holes hitting the targeted mineralized zone.The mineralized zone intercepted at La Borracha is the extension of the structure, which hosts the La Cigarra resource, and drilling has now tested approximately 1000 meters of strike length beyond the resource. Logging and sampling of these holes is progressing well and results will be released once all assays have been received and interpreted by the Company.
Primero commenced a strategic review process in early 2017 that resulted in the sale of the Black Fox Complex in October 2017 and the sale of the Cerro del Gallo development project in November 2017 . In January 2018 the Company also announced that it had entered into the Arrangement Agreement whereby First Majestic will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Primero. The transaction is expected to close in or around April 2018 , subject to applicable regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other customary conditions.
Our Q3 earnings reflect a low point in production since the acquisition of the San Martin mine. Moving forward, the production, planning and operating excellence programs put in place by new operational management at the San Martin Mine and the Altiplano Facility have been set in place to improve production and recoveries, reported Robert Eadie, President of the company. We feel that we have made a significant change in the operating culture and look forward their positive results.
