“Our team continues to advance our understanding of the mineralization at Yoquivo. These last holes from the 2022 program continue to return high-grade gold and silver assays from both the Pertenencia and San Francisco vein systems, and with each new drilling campaign we continue to discover additional veins and extend mineralization to greater depths than previously recognized,” said Warren Rehn, President and Chief Executive Officer of Golden Minerals.

Richard Lock, Oroco’s CEO, commented: “We are extremely encouraged by our current drilling results. They are beginning to confirm the mineralization which was indicated by the historical drilling in the South Zone, therefore adding to the impressive results from our North Zone drilling program. We anticipate that these results will come together very positively in support of our Preliminary Economic Assessment, which is expected in the second quarter of 2023.”

“We expect these results to drive a significant increase in Mineral Reserves at PDA in our year end update to be released later this month. With the deposit open in multiple directions, and an expanded exploration program planned at Mulatos in 2023, we expect this growth to continue.”

Thomas A. Doyle, President, CEO, stated “The acquisition of Quitovac gives Aloro a strong exploration presence in the Mojave-Sonora Megashear. I look forward to the news flow from this area as well as updates coming from Los Venados as Alamos Gold continues their exploration as part of their US$5,000,000 Option Agreement.”

“The 2022 infill drilling of the sulphide extension of the Camino Rojo deposit has consistently generated exceptional gold intersections enhancing future development opportunity scenarios and potential to grow the resource at depth”, stated Sylvain Guerard, Orla’s Senior Vice President, Exploration.

Bruce Smith, President & CEO, states: “We are very pleased with the recent progress at Plata Verde. Initial test work highlights the exceptional metallurgical properties at Plata Verde with cyanide leach recoveries averaging 93% for silver and in combination with flotation achieving 97% silver recovery. Geological mapping, sampling, and road construction are on-going in preparation for a drilling program.”

Silver Tiger’s CEO, Glenn Jessome, stated, “The discovery of this high grade sulphide zone is the fourth type of mineralization found at El Tigre. The first holes through this wide high grade sulphide zone have delineated a strike length of in excess of 150 meters open to the north and south, with widths approaching 35 meters.”

“We have now delineated approximately 60 million ounces of silver and 508 thousand ounces of gold in the indicated category and 70 million ounces of silver and 496 thousand ounces of gold in the inferred category with significant upside potential remaining in the district.”

“Information collected from the bulk sample and metallurgical test work will give investors even more confidence in the potential of the project and show the possibilities to produce gold and silver from Pilar.”

“Hole 118 represents not only the best drill hole drilled by our team at Los Ricos, but it is also the best hole ever drilled by any member of our technical team on any of our previous projects,” said Brad Langille, President and CEO.
