SilverCrest Announces Initial Drill Results for El Picacho Property; 21 Drill Hole Intercepts Average 4.1 Metres (ETW) Grading 660 gpt AgEq

N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng, and CEO, remarked, “We acquired El Picacho only six months ago, and in this short time period, SilverCrest’s exploration team has negotiated surface rights, completed preliminary geological surface and underground exploration work, received a five-year drilling permit, set up a COVID-19 isolation camp with strict protocols, and have already made some significant discoveries. Drilling will continue throughout the year, with an approved total 2021 exploration budget of US$42 million for mostly the Las Chispas Project with some allocated to El Picacho based on success.”

GR Silver Mining Undertakes Maiden Ground Geophysics Program on the San Marcial Project, Incorporating Magnetometry and 3D IP

GR Silver Mining President and CEO, Marcio Fonseca, commented, “We are excited to be undertaking the first major geophysical investigation of the San Marcial Project. The ground based survey of 3D IP and magnetometry will assist our technical team to better understand the underlying geology, map key structures – particularly those not apparent at surface – and to identify potentially mineralized zones both in the vicinity of the San Marcial Ag resource as well as on some of the key target areas identified by the Company over the past two years…”

Brigadier Adding Second Drill Rig for Commencement of Phase Two Diamond Drilling at Picachos High Grade Gold-Silver Property

Ranjeet Sundher, Brigadier’s CEO commented: “We continue to make excellent progress at Picachos, although we have only just started to evaluate the potential of this extensive mineralized system. The additional rig will help considerably in accelerating our investigating the many high priority existing and newly identified targets on the Property…”

Tocvan Initiates Next Phase of Exploration at Pilar Gold-Silver Project Sonora, Mexico

“We are excited to have boots back on the ground at Pilar,” commented VP Exploration, Brodie Sutherland. “The results released last week for our Phase I drill program show the potential to grow the known extent of mineralization at depth and along strike. The high-grade gold and silver intercepts provide evidence for deep rooted structures which we are just starting to uncover.”

Stroud Resources Announces Commencement of Drill Program

Stroud Resources Ltd. is pleased to announce that its drilling permit application has been approved by the Mexican Mining Authority for its Santo Domingo Silver Property located in Hostotipaquillo Region of Jalisco, Mexico.

Mammoth Announces Results From Independent Geological Assessment of its Tenoriba Project, Sierra Madre, Mexico

Drs. Ressel and Christensen made an intriguing observation regarding the inversion of a stratigraphic horizon of rocks favourable to host gold-silver mineralization at Tenoriba from prior mapping. Should this inverted stratigraphy prove correct this could have significant positive implications as far as the abundance and location of this favourable stratigraphy as a host of gold-silver mineralization at Tenoriba.

Silver Spruce Contracts Eagle Mapping to Undertake LiDAR Survey and Provides Update on Pino de Plata Ag Project, Chihuahua, Mexico

“We are continuing to build our digital database for Pino de Plata while negotiating the landowner agreement to permit drilling on several highly promising silver targets. The new LiDAR data will notably enhance our topographic control for the Phase 1 drill collar optimization and provides another value-added 3D element to our overall geological and structural compilation prior to the planned subsurface exploration,” said Greg Davison, Silver Spruce Director and VP Exploration.
