Santacruz Silver Reports 2018 Annual Production Results

Carlos Silva, Santacruz’s COO stated, “Production at Veta Grande is steadily improving as a result of increased mine development during the year leading to additional stopes coming online and less reliance on previously mined mineralized material (Chorros) as feed to the mill.

Silver One Commences Drilling at Its Peñasco Quemado Project, Mexico

Greg Crowe, President and CEO commented, “The strength of the soil geochemical anomalies near to a historically defined, manto or replacement style silver resource, in combination with geophysical anomalies strongly highlights Peñasco Quemado as a highly prospective drill target. The property hosts geological similarities to the silver-manganese oxide and zinc-lead-silver sulphide mineralization at the Hermosa and Taylor projects located just over 100 kilometres to the north in Arizona. These properties are currently being evaluated by South 32 acquired through the takeover of Arizona Mining in August 2018.”

José Antonio Berlanga, CEO and Director, states: Telson´s growth in the past three years has been remarkable. After Telson’s restructuring in November 2015, the Company has grown significantly from having one advanced exploration project, Tahuehueto at the PEA stage, to having acquired the Campo Morado mine, advancing it back into full commercial production and advancing its Tahuehueto project through pre-feasibility studies into pre-production by toll milling. At Tahuehueto we are now in late stage mine construction of an on-site 1,000 tonne per day milling and underground mining operation which we expect to commission in 2019..
