Starcore Reports Year End 2017 Results

“The mine has returned to normal tonnage and metal production under interim COO Ralf Kleine. Our very strong cash position and balance sheet coupled with the ramping up of our Altiplano processing facility will open us to opportunities to potentially increase production.” reported Robert Eadie, President of the Company.

Leagold Receives Permit for Ramp for Bermejal Underground

Neil Woodyer, CEO stated “Development of the exploration ramp is an important step in advancing Bermejal Underground towards production. The ramp will provide access to the eastern and central portions of the deposit. The mineralization is similar to the Los Filos Underground deposits where we are currently mining, and this development provides an opportunity to carry out additional exploration from underground as well as demonstrate the minability of Bermejal Underground. Access to the ore body will also provide a larger sample for confirmatory metallurgical testwork for heap leaching. These steps will advance the deposit towards declaration of reserves and incorporation into the mine plan.”

Mexus releases information on current gold produced and the purchase of water rights

“I want our shareholders to understand that production and sale of gold is imminent. We have faced and overcome the initial hurdles and are nearing the time when production will begin full time for years to come. Both MarMar and Mexus agreed that we would hold off running our gold through the Merrill Crowe system until assured that the recoveries were acceptable. Patience in this area is prudent as we don’t want to risk the loss of any gold. I want to reiterate that production will be constant once all of the minor tweaks are made and we move to full time production,” added CEO Paul Thompson.

Candelaria Mining Provides Caballo Blanco Project Update

Excellon Drills 2,318 G/T Silver Equivalent Over 6.76 Metres At Platosa

“Today’s results confirm the potential to add significant high-grade mineralization to the 623 Manto and demonstrate continuity between the 623 and Guadalupe South mantos,” stated Ben Pullinger, Vice-President, Geology. “This mineralization is near mine workings and therefore has the potential to increase near term high-grade production. Our drilling program continues to successfully demonstrate the ability to expand Platosa’s mineralized footprint around existing resources. Dry conditions are also providing easier and more efficient access to strategic areas for underground drilling around the Platosa mantos.”

En Caballo Blanco, sólo exploración minera, afirma la Semarnat

Precisó que los trabajos de exploración se encuentran amparados en la Norma Oficial 120, que permite hacer cierto número de exploraciones con tubos de hasta 300 metros de profundidad para sacar muestras y descartar la posibilidad de existencia de minerales.

Southern Silver Hits High-Grade Extension at Cerro Las Minitas Returning 12.5m (est. TT) Grading 154g/t Ag, 2.0g/t Au, 3.2% Pb, and 3.9% Zn (558g/t AgEq; 15.7% ZnEq) in Recent Drilling

Southern Silver Exploration Corp. reported today that it continues to identify high-grade mineralization from the current core drilling program on the Cerro Las Minitas project, Durango State, Mexico. Recent drilling has identified two thick intervals of mineralization in hole 17CLM-101 opening up the potential for significant extensions to the Blind Zone and Skarn Front deposits to the southeast of their currently drill extents.
