Bradford Cooke, CEO of Endeavour, stated, “Our exploration programs were successful last year in outlining new brownfields discoveries at three of our mines and projects in Mexico. We expanded the measured and indicated resources at Guanacevi and Parral and increased inferred resources at Guanacevi, Bolanitos and Parral. Our reserves declined at Guanacevi but increased at Bolanitos and El Compas.”
Octavio Alvídrez, Chief Executive Officer, said: “Silver and gold production is up on the previous quarter as we begin to see the impact of our performance improvement plan, which includes intensive infill drilling to improve the certainty of the geological model, dilution control and raising development rates, together with actions to address contractor productivity and equipment availability. Full year silver and gold production is in line with our updated guidance.”
Philip O’Neill, CEO of Mexican Gold, stated, “New Found Gold’s maiden drill results are encouraging. The Queensway Gold Project demonstrates the potential for a significant near-surface discovery in a friendly, easily accessible mining jurisdiction. The resulting company will be very well capitalized to further explore and undertake multiple drill campaigns on the Queensway Project. We will also be well funded to further advance our Las Minas project in Veracruz, Mexico.”
Carlos Silva, Santacruz’s COO, stated, “Santacruz had a record year in 2019 producing 2.8 million silver equivalent ounces following the successful acquisition and integration of Carrizal Mining. In addition to this transformative event, the Veta Grande and Rosario mines increased their annual production substantially, while at the same time maintaining significant development activities and advancing exploration plans as a pathway to keep improving our production at all mines and expanding mine resources.”
“After suspending Campo Morado mining operations during August 2019 we are very pleased to be in a position to inform shareholders that improving metal prices and improved community relations have allowed us to resume full scale mining operations to re-initiate concentrate sales and cash flows” states Antonio Berlanga, CEO, “with the mine back in production the local community of Arcelia will once again have a major source of employment available and will benefit from the renewed economic activity.”
Jonathan George, CEO, comments, “These excellent results showing widespread gold and copper mineralization over such a large area are very encouraging, and provide compelling targets for drilling to test the extent of mineralization at depth.”
Equinox Gold Corp. and Leagold Mining Corporation are pleased to announce that both Equinox Gold and Leagold shareholders approved all matters voted on at their respective special meetings of shareholders held earlier today, approving the transaction announced on December 16, 2019 to combine the companies, creating one of the world’s top gold producing companies operating entirely in the Americas.
“Our 2019 exploration program in Mexico was highly successful at both of our mining operations,” stated Jeffrey Mason, Interim President & CEO. “This is already translating into growth in production and cash flow, with record silver equivalent production at the Topia Mine in 2019.”
“We mined a record 74,876 tonnes from Platosa in 2019, the most in our 15-year operating history,” stated Brendan Cahill, President and CEO. “At Miguel Auza, we processed record tonnage of 89,478 tonnes for the year and 26,226 tonnes for Q4 from Platosa and Hecla’s San Sebastian Mine, demonstrating continued scalability in the milling operation. During the fourth quarter, flow sheet upgrades resulted in improved silver recoveries of over 91.7%. We expect zinc recoveries to further improve with ongoing upgrades.”
Plata Latina Minerals Corporation is pleased to announce that through its wholly-owned subsidiary Plaminco S.A. de C.V., it has entered into an Agreement of Assignment of Mining Concessions with Minera Argentita Exploracion, S. de R.L. de C.V., a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Electrum Group, with respect to Plata Latina’s three exploration properties in Mexico, which include Vaquerias, Palo Alto and La Joya.
