Leagold Reports Initial Drilling Results for Bermejal Underground Program

Neil Woodyer, CEO stated “these drilling results show the consistency of mineralization along the contacts of the Bermejal intrusive and sill. Infill holes are tightening up the drill hole spacing and will enable an upgrade of the resource classification. These holes are also filling in gaps in the resource model which, when combined with the step-out holes, will increase the overall mineral resource. To date, 18 of the 20 holes drilled have intercepted high-grade mineralization – this high success rate also indicates the potential for both the consistency and expansion of the deposit. In addition to the drilling program, Leagold is also progressing with engineering studies in preparation for underground development. Work to date confirms that Bermejal is a valuable mine development project that will enhance production and extend mine life at Los Filos”.

Excellon Achieves Dry Mining Conditions At Platosa With Completion Of Optimization Plan

“Platosa is dry,” stated Brendan Cahill, President and Chief Executive Officer. “The completion of the optimization plan at Platosa marks a significant milestone in Platosa’s history and we now have a system fully implemented to eliminate the major bottleneck on production going forward. With dry operating conditions, our immediate goal is a smooth transition to materially higher rates of production and a return to an industry-leading cost profile in the coming quarters.”

Mexican Gold Announces Signing of Contract for Ground Magnetic Survey at Las Minas and Issuance of Bonus Shares

Brian Robertson, President & CEO, stated “The mineralization controls at Las Minas are similar to the Guerrero Gold belt, which is the site of the Los Filos and Morelos gold deposits. In both areas, the high gold values are associated with intrusive hosted systems, with initial high magnetite/hematite fluid flows mobilizing the gold mineralization, followed by later stage precipitation of the magnetite. We anticipate that the ground magnetic geophysical survey will identify potential gold/magnetite extensions to the highgrade mineralization intersected in step-out hole LM-17-CS-04 as well as elsewhere at Cinco Senores.

Alset Minerals Acquires New Salars for Lithium and Potassium Exploration – Alset Now Has Major Position in New Lithium-Potassium Province in Mexico

Allan Barry Laboucan, President and CEO of Alset said: “Management has been impressed with the success we have had with the exploration of our original group of salars. As previously reported from the work on our original group of salars we have found high-grade lithium-potassium in some of those salars, they are in a mining friendly jurisdiction with excellent infrastructure. Alset currently has a large number of brine and soil samples being processed, the company decided that this would be an appropriate time to acquire further salars in the area. We are fortunate to be involved in a sector that will be crucial for the energy industry with lithium needed for energy storage and having the bonus of potassium crucial for the production of fertilizers needed for farming in Mexico. With our new acquisitions, we will have a 100% interest in a group of salars that span an entire province.”

Santana Minerals Limited – Significant silver mineralisation at depth and along strike across Las Animas and Evangelina vein systems

The Company is highly encouraged by the overall results of the drill program at Mojardina with a new zone of mineralisation identified at the southern extent of the structure and expansionary drilling below Evangelina and Las Animas confirming mineralisation remains open at depth and along strike. Each of the three RC drill programs undertaken at the Mojardina prospect have added significantly to its advancement and delivered material results that confirm the potential for a near surface, bulk tonnage silver resource.
