Kootenay President and CEO James McDonald states: “We are very pleased with Pan American’s work and the results to date from the first 11 holes of the program. The confirmation of multiple high-grade intercepts of silver mineralization at depth is a significant development and further indicates potential for the silver resources to be amenable to both open pit and underground exploitation. We are also very pleased that based on the encouraging results achieved to date, Pan American is extending the program by a full 2,000 meters until the end of the year.”

MX Gold Corp. is pleased to announce a binding agreement with Gracepoint Mining Corp., a subsidiary of Firma Holdings Corp. to acquire a 50% interest in the Magistral, Del Oro tailings project, which is located within the “Golden Triangle” in Santa Maria Del Oro, Durango, Mexico.

Almadex Chairman, J. Duane Poliquin commented, “These results further show the potential of the El Cobre project to host a significant gold-rich porphyry system. The Norte zone is one of four well defined porphyry centres within a very large zone of porphyry related alteration. We look forward to following up this exciting intercept with further results from our ongoing aggressive drill program focused on the goal of defining a new gold-copper resource in Mexico.”

Luis Castro, Vice President of Exploration, commented, “These in-fill drill results continue to confirm high grade silver-gold mineralization over substantial true widths in the Terronera vein. The deposit is still open for expansion at depth and to the southeast, and we now have high priority drill targets identified in several other mineralized, subparallel veins to the north of the Terronera vein.

“Americas Silver had a strong operating quarter while continuing to execute on cost containment, positioning us favourably for growing operating cash flow going forward. Silver and silver equivalent production was driven by a strong operating quarter at the Galena Complex,” said Darren Blasutti, President ?and CEO of Americas Silver. “The San Rafael Project in Mexico is progressing extremely well, projecting to be on schedule and under the capital budget. San Rafael will be a significant generator of operating cash flow going forward, fueling the Company’s earnings and cash flow growth in late 2017 and beyond.”

In summary, Prospero has restarted work programs on its 100%-owned projects. Management is currently prioritising and ranking the Company’s key projects for joint venture. The Company has also submitted permit applications to drill the Matorral target at Santa Maria del Oro.

N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng, CEO and President commented, “We are very encouraged with the early success from our initial drilling campaign at Las Chispas, which has confirmed continuity of high grades over potential mineable thicknesses. With the underground drilling permit, we will start drill-defining resources and preparing for a broader Phase II exploration program. Our current focus is to systematically drill the Las Chispas and William Tell veins in a grid pattern for resource estimation, test vein extensions and to further explore the Babicanora area. SilverCrest’s schedule is to establish a maiden resource estimation in the first half of 2017. We see further upside in this historic silver-gold mining district with prospective discoveries of multiple unidentified veins, and drill testing Babicanora which is considered the largest target in the district.”

“Although we are anxious to commence drilling at Pino de Plata, we are also pleased with the progress being made to prudently initiate serious exploration efforts while minimizing or eliminating any potential environmental and permitting liabilities in the future,” stated Dr. Brian Penney, Chairman. “We are taking proactive steps now to ensure that safe and efficient exploration and development programs can be conducted without interference or unanticipated regulatory delays.”

GoGold Resources Inc. is pleased to announce that it has uncovered additional zones of high grade gold on surface at the Greta project at its Santa Gertrudis Gold Mine located in Sonora state, Mexico. GoGold’s Trench 318 uncovered (18m of 32.8 g/t Au). The largest zone of a few areas consists of three subparallel zones of mineralization that dip about 20° to the west and has dimensions of 660 meters along the north-south strike and 370 meters down dip. This zone is approximately 12 meters thick and is tightly confined to a thin layer that gives the appearance of a bedding plane or a flat-lying structural zone. The zone is notable for a very high-grade gold layer from one to ten meters thick that outcrops on surface in numerous locations.
