Southern Silver Acquires Strategic Claims at Cerro las Minitas

The claim package comprises 2 concessions, known as Biznagas and Los Lenchos, totaling 9600 hectares, which are contiguous to the south and west with the Cerro Las Minitas claim block. The Biznagas claim was recommended for staking by La Cuesta International, Inc. whose previous exploration activities in the region resulted in the discovery of the nearby San Sebastián Mine (Hecla Mining Ltd.) and the San Agustin project (Argonaut Gold).

Hecla’s Senior Vice President – Exploration Receives A.O. Dufresne Exploration Achievement Award

“Congratulations to Dean on receiving this prestigious award,” said Phillips S. Baker, Jr., President and CEO. “We believe the largest risk to mining companies today is the ability to replace reserves. Dean and his exploration team have been instrumental in Hecla maintaining its strong and growing reserve and resource profile over the past 10 years; as we added 299 million silver ounces to reserves despite price volatility and the recent trend in the industry of declining reserves.”

Canasil Drills 3.18 Metres of 850 g/t Silver Equivalent* (Ag Eq) Including 1.28 metres of 1,938 Ag Eq at the La Esperanza Project in Durango and Zacatecas States, Mexico

Canasil Resources Inc. announces assay results for drill holes ES-17-18 and ES-17-19 of the 2016-17 core drilling program at the La Esperanza silver-zinc-lead project in Durango and Zacatecas States, Mexico. Both drill holes intersected wide mineralized intervals with multiple silver-zinc-lead intercepts, with appreciable gold values in ES-17-19, reporting high-grade intervals from the La Esperanza vein. These holes now complete the current drill program, which was expanded to eight drill holes for a total of 2,452 metres (m). All drill holes successfully intersected the La Esperanza vein indicating a strong mineralized system which remains open in both directions to the southeast and northwest along strike and to depth. Of particular note are the high gold grades observed for the first time together with high silver grades in drill hole ES-17-19.

Preliminary Results Outline a Path to Low-Cost Lithium Extraction at Agua Fria, Mexico (Lithium Australia 49%, Alix Resources 51%)

Lithium Australia Managing director Adrian Griffin stated: “These results are a great start to our metallurgical evaluation program and clearly show the potential to produce a valuable concentrate from the host volcanogenic sediments. The acid solubility of the lithium is of greater importance. The ability to leach the lithium in very short periods of time, at ambient temperature, and without the requirement of pre-treatment may have profound effects on the economics of Agua Fria, the next major lithium clay deposit.”
