“The ongoing drilling program at Cerro Caliche continues to meet the primary objectives set out by Sonoro’s technical team prior to exploration,” said Kenneth MacLeod, President and CEO of Sonoro. “Drilling by earlier operators suggested the potential to develop a large-tonnage, heap leachable resource at Cerro Caliche suitable for open-pit mining. The current results support that proposition.”

Mammoth Provides Corporate Update on Exploration Activities at the Tenoriba Project

Thomas Atkins, President and CEO of Mammoth commented on the results from drilling, stating: “We’ve always been impressed and intrigued by the sheer dimensions of the gold-silver footprint at Tenoriba, one that measures about 15 square kilometres and still remains open to the east and west. Given we intersected potentially economical values of gold-silver in 9 of 11 drill holes from this campaign and that 7 of these holes tested areas over one kilometre to the east and west of the area previously drilled, illustrates the vast potential of the deposit.”
