“The Company began to see the impact of Mercedes development initiatives late during the second quarter when production from Diluvio and Rey de Oro began to reach the mill.” stated John Begeman, Executive Chairman of Premier. “It is expected that these two deposits will drive increased production and a stronger second half at Mercedes. When also considering stronger than expected production from South Arturo, we have re-evaluated and ultimately revised 2018 gold production guidance”.

“We realized further improvements at the Platosa Mine and Miguel Auza concentrator during the second quarter, including the most tonnes processed at Miguel Auza since the Company acquired the mill in 2009,” stated Brendan Cahill, President and CEO. “We also achieved AISC of less than $10 per payable silver ounce for the quarter. While there is more work to do to increase production, we’re making strong progress. Most importantly, we now have a stable, cash-flowing operation at Platosa that provides a platform for our greater exploration and growth goals.”

Capstone Mining Corp. (TSX: CS) today announced production results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. Combined production totalled 20,000 and 39,200 tonnes of copper in the second quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, with additional by-products of zinc, molybdenum, lead, silver and gold.

(TSXV:CDG) advises that it has applied to the TSX Venture Exchange for approval to extend the exercise period of a total of 5,000,000 outstanding share purchase warrants issued pursuant to the private placement completed on August 12, 2016. The original expiry date was August 12, 2018 and if the extension is approved, the new expiration date will be August 12, 2020.

“While production during the second quarter was somewhat lower than planned due to heavier than usual rainfall at our Guanajuato Mine Complex, we continue to expect to meet our production guidance for 2018”, stated James Bannantine, President & CEO. “In addition, we are very pleased with the positive results of our recently announced Preliminary Economic Assessment for the Coricancha Mine in Peru. We have now begun preparations for the Bulk Sample Program and look forward to providing further updates as we continue to advance the project.”

Bradford Cooke, Endeavour CEO, commented, “Our Second Quarter, 2018 production was much improved over Q2, 2017, continuing the trend established in the First Quarter 2018. As a result, we are on track to meet our guidance of higher production and lower costs in 2018 thanks to improved operating performance at the El Cubo and the development of our fourth mine at El Compas.
