Evrim announces additional drilling results at Cuale Gold Project in Mexico

“The maiden drilling program at Cuale has afforded the Company a better understanding of the geological setting that hosts the gold mineralization. With this information, the Company plans to test extensions of the gold and copper horizons and will commence a reconnaissance program across the property seeking new targets. Upon completion of this program, the Company will re-assess the appropriate path forward,” commented Charles Funk, Vice President of New Opportunities and Exploration.

Gainey Samples 40g/t Gold at Las Margaritas

Gainey CEO, David Coburn stated, “We are very encouraged by these early high-grade results. We believe that the Las Margaritas system is the epicenter of the El Colomo Project and that, together, they represent a district-scale opportunity for the delineation of a gold epithermal vein system similar in setting to the many precious metal mines along the Sierra Madre belt. Our technical team continues to push hard on mapping, sampling and analyzing the data, which will allow us to move forward with our planned drill program in the coming months.”

Goldplay announces its maiden mineral resource, containing 36 million oz AgEq (indicated) and 11 million oz AgEq (inferred), at the San Marcial Project

Goldplay President and CEO Marcio Fonseca commented, The completion of our maiden Mineral Resource on the San Marcial Project is a major milestone for Goldplay. We have achieved a significant increase in the contained ounces of both Ag and AgEq. The Mineral Resource provides a strong foundation to realize the full potential of the San Marcial Project. We are progressing with detailed, systematic exploration of the under-explored additional 3.5 km of mineralized trend. Recent surface exploration results have already confirmed new exploration targets in the vicinity of the mineral resource, representing future upside opportunity for resource expansion in 2019.

Sable Resources Provides Mexico Exploration Update

We are excited to be moving to the next stage at Margarita. commented Tom Obradovich, President & CEO of Sable Resources. Following our highly successful first round of drilling where we were able to identify thick high-grade silver intercepts, this next round is designed to extend along strike continuity and test the other veins parallel to Margarita. Early indications are excellent with hole M-DDH-19-14 already showing a vein intercept of 12.4m.

Aloro Provides Update on Drilling at Los Venados and Planning Follow Up Drill Program

Technical advisor Ken Balleweg, P. Geo, who managed the discovery and ore control of the high-grade Escondida zone states: “The style of mineralization in LVRC012, particularly the coarse vuggy nature with crystalline quartz, octahedral pyrite, and tetrahedrite, strongly resembles that of the Escondida high-grade deposit, which was distinctly different from the main Mulatos style of mineralization. As this style of mineralization is unique and was both within and proximal to the high-grade deposit, the intercept of similar alteration in a previously undrilled area is significant and warrants additional step-out holes.”

YMP Announces Andree St-Germain & Jose Vizquerra as the 2018 Eira Thomas & Peter Munk Awards Winners

The YMP Awards, presented in association with The Northern Miner, to recognize two young mining professionals, a female and a male, who over the past year, and during their careers, have demonstrated exceptional leadership skills and innovative thinking to provide value for their companies and shareholders, as well as for themselves. The YMP Awards are named after two iconic entrepreneurs in the mining industry, Eira Thomas and the late Peter Munk.

U. S. Antimony Reports Progress at All Operations

CEO John Lawrence said, “The equipment from Reynosa was a major bonus for all operations and will increase capacity while lowering costs. The resumption of production from our North American supplier from an average of 57,002 pounds of antimony per month during 2018 to 128,013 during January 2019 is a major boost in antimony production as well as gold and silver. The testing of the Los Juarez caustic leach of flotation concentrates has been finished with excellent recoveries of gold and silver, and the construction of the cyanide leach circuit at Puerto Blanco is proceeding on schedule. The inventory of 348,985 pounds of contained antimony at the end of January is very large and should provide substantial cash flow once processed.”

Endeavour Silver Introduces Portfolio of Exploration Projects in Chile, Reviews Growth Strategies and 2019 Exploration Plans, Hosting Growth Webinar Today, 10 am PT

Bradford Cooke, CEO, commented, “In recent years, we diversified our growth strategy to include a portfolio of greenfields projects in Chile that have bulk tonnage potential. Our exploration group acquired and explored three attractive new projects to delineate high priority targets for drilling this year. The targets include low sulfidation epithermal silver at Aida, high sulfidation epithermal gold at Paloma and porphyry copper-molybdenum-gold at Cerro Marquez. We are thrilled to introduce today this new pipeline of growth projects and we look forward to drilling them in the second half of this year.”

Summary – 2017/18 Drilling Program – Samalayuca Copper Property, Chihuahua State, Mexico

VVC Exploration Corporation is pleased to provide a summary of final results from the 2017/2018 diamond drilling program at Company’s Samalayuca Copper project in Northern Chihuahua state, Mexico. The drilling program was conducted in three phases, beginning in August 2017 and ending in November 2018. Sixty-two drill holes totalling 6700 meters tested a 5-kilometer long mineralized zone covering approximately two thirds of the length of the property. A total of 2,990 core samples were taken. Fifty-seven of the 62 holes had sections with copper grades greater than 0.1% copper, with some sections as high as 0.95%, and estimated true mineralization widths up to 36 meters…
