Capitan’s CEO, Alberto Orozco, stated: “The current drill program has continued to confirm our thesis that there is excellent potential to expand the size of the known resource at Capitan Hill. Results from the ongoing program continue to show wide intercepts of mineralization coincident with deep zones of oxidation, both down-dip of known gold zones, and also within areas of sparse, historic drilling along strike. We are excited to see that gold and silver mineralization continues to expand and remains open in all directions. This is indicative of how premature the maiden resource was for this project.”

In conjunction with the Company’s 30 November news release, US Antimony Corp. announces that all assays have now been received for its Phase I 1100-meter reverse-circulation drill program at Los Juarez, Queretaro, Mexico. A total of 25 holes were drilled on concessions held by USAC.

Peter J. Hawley, CEO and President, remarks, “The results of the follow up sampling of the IP anomalies have provided favorable silver results over all on anomalies sampled, of which certain results were a pleasant confirmation of not only the location of the IP anomaly but also exhibiting silver grades on surface even though the anomaly is at depth. It is not common to sample almost one ounce of silver over a buried IP Anomaly.”

“Results from our first 20 diamond drill holes are demonstrating the El Favor deposit is hosted by a large scale zone of semi-parallel silver and gold bearing structures. The deposit is open along strike and at depth and may be amenable to bulk mining,” said Brad Langille, President and CEO.

Taj Singh, President and CEO, states: “We continue to confirm and expand the strike extent of the high-grade vein systems at Cordero. Step out holes at Parcionera have doubled the drill-confirmed strike extent to at least 1 km with clear potential for further expansion to the northeast. A review of historic drill core also indicates that Parcionera has a depth extent of at least 470 m. Drilling at the Josefina vein trend intercepted high-grade veins, several of which were within broader zones of disseminated mineralization. This opens the possibility of expanding the higher-grade bulk-tonnage domain to the east, potentially incorporating sections of the Josefina vein trend. We look forward to the results of follow-up drilling targeting this potential expansion.”

Mel Herdrick, Sonoro’s VP Exploration, commented, “The good gold grades and wide intervals returned from the latest drilling results continue to add to the Buena Suerte mineralized zone and show that it has now become a large area with significant resource potential. I look forward to this zone being added to the next resource study which is to be conducted in the coming months.”

GR Silver Mining President and CEO, Marcio Fonseca, commented, “These are extraordinary drilling results from the Plomosas Mine Area, indicating potential for size and scalability in the geological model to host attractive precious and base metals mineralization in areas close to existing underground development. We will continue with underground drilling in the vicinity of this polymetallic mineralization in 2021 and will also apply the technical knowledge to look for similar mineralization in other targets in the Plomosas Silver Project.”

Golden Minerals President and Chief Executive Officer, Warren Rehn, commented today on the progress at Rodeo, “Thanks to the efficiency of our team in Mexico and the experienced and capable contract mining group, we have started mining at Rodeo about two weeks ahead of schedule. The installation of the second ball mill at our processing plant is also ahead of schedule. We expect to fulfill our plan to be producing gold and silver doré bars for sale in January 2021.“

“The ability to efficiently execute our first drill program at Pilar is an important milestone for Tocvan.” commented President and CEO Derek Wood. “As we await drill results, planning has begun for the next phase of exploration. 2021 will be an important year for the Corporation as we look forward to the continued advancement of Pilar.”

“We are delighted with the widths of multistage quartz veining cut in all four holes and the similarity of mineralization to our high-grade 2018 drillholes,” said Dr. Craig Gibson, President and CEO of the Company. “We are especially pleased with how the vein zone is widening with depth and look forward to returning after the break and continuing to drill this very promising vein system.”
