“Santo Domingo was first discovered in the 16th century and although there have been several periods of small-scale mining over the last 400 years, little modern exploration was ever carried out on the Property,” said Mirsad Jakubovic, CEO of Stroud, “We have now defined a significant silver deposit and believe we have merely scratched the surface. The strike length of the La Raya and Guadalupe zones have been drilled to a depth of approximately 150 metres, leaving considerable room to expand by drilling. With the technical sophistication available today, the opportunity exists to more sensitively and expertly extract these resources with the least amount of disruption and cost. The sites proximity to Guadalajara provides excellent access to roads and facilities, with power and water supply on-site.”

Leagold CEO Neil Woodyer stated: “The results of the drill program at Bermejal Underground have exceeded our expectations to date, with several areas of high-grade mineralization already defined. We continue to see excellent results as we focus the remainder of the drilling on the Central and Western side of the deposit. We have 15 rigs on site and will complete the drill program in November.”
