“This resource update models the mineralization defined at Sierra Mojada to zinc and silver prices realistic of the current market conditions”, stated Tim Barry, President, CEO and director of Silver Bull. “Sierra Mojada is one of only a handful of projects with any appreciable zinc resources and is one of the largest undeveloped silver-zinc projects in Mexico. It has excellent infrastructure; it is located 3 hours from an international airport with a paved road right to site; it has a functioning railway right to site; runs on grid power; and it has a skilled mining work force to draw upon in the immediate local area. This resource provides excellent leverage to both zinc and silver prices and has the potential to be scaled in size depending on metal prices.”

“The renewable power purchase agreement with Energia Solar provides Telson with a steady supply of renewable source generated power at an inflation-indexed fixed price that will significantly reduce environmental footprint and reduce operating costs and future profitability. Additionally, this agreement satisfies local regulations that require Campo Morado mine to use a minimum of 25% green generated energy.” states Antonio Berlanga, CEO. “It is also a significant step forward for Telson to do its part in the world-wide battle against global warming”

CZL CEO Brad Marwood said, “This is an exceptional opportunity for CZL to increase value for shareholders and is by far the best opportunity identified to increase production of zinc, lead and silver in the near term. We continue to execute our plan to rapidly grow CZL into a mid-tier zinc producer, and we will be ramping up production at Plomosas over the coming months to build on this plan.”

“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.”
