Goldcorp Named as Recipient of Canada’s Clean Growth Program Funding

“We believe the days of diesel use for underground mining equipment are numbered and electrification of our mobile fleet is a logical way to significantly reduce the mine’s environmental footprint,” said David Garofalo, Goldcorp’s President and CEO. “We are partnering with like-minded technology suppliers like Maclean Engineering and Sandvik, provincial and federal governments and First Nations to commercialize clean technologies, improve health and safety performance, and reduce GHG emissions with the aim of improving the viability, sustainability and profitability of our mines. It’s gratifying to see multiple levels of government support innovation and our vision of a safer, greener mining industry.”

Southern Silver Extends High-Grade Mineralization in North Skarn Target with an 3.4m Intercept of 191g/t Ag, 0.9% Cu, 3.7% Pb and 9.4% Zn (747g/t AgEq; 21.1% ZnEq)

Minera Alamos Inc. – New Discovery Hole – 95.7 Metres of 1.47 Gold Equivalent at the Santana Project, Sonora, Mexico

“This new discovery hole is an extremely exciting development for the Company” stated Darren Koningen, CEO of Minera Alamos. “One of the driving factors behind the merger between Minera Alamos and Corex earlier this year was the significant untapped potential we believed we could unlock once the two Companies’ contiguous land packages were combined. As our knowledge base grows and we continue to better understand the regional geology we should continue to find additional mineralization. The discovery of the Divisadero area provides further evidence that the mineralizing events that occurred in the Nicho area are present at shallow depths elsewhere on our extensive property holdings.”
