Excellon Provides Corporate Update And Outlook For 2024

Shawn Howarth, President and CEO, commented, “While 2023 was challenging on several fronts, Excellon remained resilient.

We also completed two preliminary economic assessments in each of Los Ricos South and Los Ricos North which showed a combined total NPV of US$871M for the district.”

Prime Intercepts High Grades at Las Primas and Record High Grades at Guadalupe East

Prime Mining Corp. Chief Executive Officer Daniel Kunz commented, “The incredibly high-grade intercepts at Guadalupe East are exciting from a resource expansion perspective. 23GE-147 lies almost entirely within the 2023 economic Resource pit. The upper intercepts returned higher grades than what was predicted in the MRE block model while the lower intercepts are in what was previously estimated to be waste in the model. This material has the potential to substantively increase economic ounces in this part of Guadalupe East in our next Resource update.”
