McEwen Mining Announces New Preliminary Economic Assessment Extending Life an Additional 10 Years in Mexico

“Project Fenix shows that El Gallo has the potential to be retooled to produce silver and gold for years into the future. The current heap leach gold mine would transform first to a mill and process the residual heap leach pad material, then additional mill modifications would enable processing of silver and gold ores from four other deposits. This plan depends on innovative in-pit tailings disposal that we think is a win-win for all stakeholders. Over the coming quarters we intend to advance environmental permitting and refine our plans with a feasibility study before making an investment decision next year,” said Rob McEwen, Chairman and Chief Owner

Canasil Starts Drilling at La Esperanza Silver-Gold-Zinc-Lead Project

Canasil President & CEO, Bahman Yamini, commented: “We are pleased that drilling has resumed at La Esperanza; the project covers a large area hosting multiple vein systems with potential for high-grade silver-gold-zinc-lead mineralization. The main La Esperanza vein, where the recent and current drill programs have been focused, demonstrates signs of a strong mineralized system and has consistently returned wide high-grade intercepts from drilling to date. This vein has only been tested over a limited zone along the potential strike of the vein at a relatively high level in the system. There should be excellent opportunities for expanding the mineralized envelope along strike and to depth.”
