“With our current expansion nearly complete at the Avino property, we are very excited to add Mill Circuit 4 to our production profile. The new state of the art circuit effectively increases our throughput capacity by 70%, and we expect it to be online full time in early January 2019” said David Wolfin, President and CEO. “I would like to thank our team in Mexico for their hard work, dedication and resourcefulness to get this major project completed.”

Esto luego de que habitantes de El Cedro denunciaron que al parecer la empresa minera Fresnillo PLC, encargada de los trabajos en la mina Las Torres, pretende desalojarlos para explorar los minerales que hay debajo de las viviendas, por lo que solicitaron ayuda de las autoridades municipales para evitarlo.

Taj Singh, P.Eng, President and CEO stated, “First assay results from our Monclova sampling program were outstanding and they illustrate the strong potential of several target areas on the Project. Real Viejo in particular shows impressive grades and continuity over a large prospective area. For the next two months we will continue to systematically explore and test Monclova through mapping, sampling and geophysics, and plan for drilling in Q3.”

Alonso Lujan, Vice President of Exploration stated: “The Titan 24 areas we tested demonstrated an excellent relationship between chargeability and the structures. Based on those results, the Company has completed a successful infill drilling program on those previously tested areas, which resulted in a new structure being defined which demonstrates the continuity of the previously defined wide high-grade copper structures. The potential for further extensions to the North of the Cieneguita zone remain open and there is strong evidence of further high priority geological and geophysical anomalies.”

Azure’s managing director Mr. Tony Rovira stated: “Pleasingly, assays from the final drilling into the West Zone continue to identify thick, high grade mineralisation, with potential extensions still to be tested by future drilling. Furthermore, confirmation of the presence of mineralisation within the overlying Candelaria Formation provides additional opportunities, particularly when this knowledge is combined with information from historical mining at Oposura that indicates that potential Arenillas-hosted mineralisation remains untested.”

Urique, Chihuahua.- Un cuerpo rescatado y seis personas desaparecidas es el resultado oficial hasta el momento de la tragedia sucedida en la mina ubicada en Cieneguita de Trejo, municipio de Urique.

“These excellent drill results at both of our operating complexes continue to expand our silver resources allowing for future low capital and operating cost production,” said Darren Blasutti, President and CEO of Americas Silver Corporation, “With the San Rafael mill processing 1,650 tonnes per operating day with further ramp up expected, our cash costs and all-in sustaining costs will continue to reduce over the remainder of the year.”

The gold and silver mine is in Cieneguita in the municipality of Urique. Aerial photographs provided by the state government show a white residue coating a long winding course through the mountains. Video captured at the scene showed a thunderous torrent of water rushing down a steep mountainside.
