Ethos Reports Drill Results from its La Purisima Project, Mexico

Stated Craig Roberts, P.Eng., President & CEO of Ethos: “Based on these results Ethos intends to terminate both of its La Purisima concession option agreements. The strategy Ethos is pursuing is to drill test its targets as quickly and inexpensively as possible, and to terminate further work if results do not indicate a clear path to building shareholder value. While there are some interesting intervals from the drilling we don’t see justification to continue with this project. The La Purisima drilling costs came in significantly under budget at approximately US $154,000 of which approximately US $21,000 is IVA tax that is refundable, so the cost to Ethos of drill testing this target has been relatively modest.”

Argonaut Gold Extends El Castillo Mine Life with Zero-Cost Collar Gold Price Protection Program

Pete Dougherty, President and CEO stated: ”By initiating a zero-cost collar gold price protection program on a portion of El Castillo’s estimated remaining life-of-mine production, we ensure profitability and are able to extend the mine life at our highest cost operation. Through either exploration success or a higher gold price, there may be potential to continue to extend the life of the El Castillo mine beyond mid-2022. With a strong portfolio of development assets, we felt prudent to lock in cash flow certainty at the El Castillo mine to help fund our development projects while also continuing to maintain exposure to an increasing gold price for our shareholders. This is an opportunity to ensure cash flow at an attractive price protection point. When looking at the total amount of Argonaut’s mineral resource base, this zero-cost collar program represents a very small percentage of total gold ounces.”
