Alacrán Drilling Update

Four diamond core holes completed at Loma Bonita ad Puerto del Oro, with assay results currently awaited

Silicification, brecciation, alteration and sulphide mineralisation identified

Drilling is continuing

Palamina Reports Geophysical and Sampling Results for the Santuario Project

Detailed ground magnetic grids were completed over two areas which host different styles of mineralization: The San Clemente gold target and the La Presa polymetallic replacement lead-zinc-silver target. Mineralization at San Clemente consists of epithermal gold mineralization along fractures and in veinlets hosted by a rhyolite porphyry/flow dome complex and is exposed in numerous small historic mine workings. The La Presa target consists of widespread alteration in an area of Cretaceous sedimentary rocks near the contact with the rhyolite porphyry. Ground magnetic surveys covering 42.56 line-km on 25 m-spaced infill lines were completed over both targets to better understand structural controls on mineralization and potential structural offsets.

San Marco and GlobeTrotters Announce Alliance to Generate and Acquire Mineral Targets in the State of Sonora, Mexico

Robert Willis, San Marco’s CEO commented that “we’ve seen what GlobeTrotters has been able to accomplish in a short period in Peru, finding outstanding targets and attracting the interest of several large companies to areas that have, in some cases, seen virtually no historic exploration. I’m very confident that Richard and his crew can take the same approach to the state of Sonora and meet with similar success. San Marco will then take the target set and apply our local knowledge and boots on the ground follow-up to winnow the list down to the highest potential areas for staking. The mining sector needs new targets and the combination of the talents of San Marco and GlobeTrotters will help find them.”

Riverside Resources Inc.: Two Drill Rigs Arrive and Drilling Commences at the Tajitos Gold Project, Sonora, Mexico

Riverside’s President and CEO, John-Mark Staude, stated: “We are excited to have two drill rigs on site testing two different areas at the same time. The gold deposits and mines of Sonora typically take significant drilling to delineate and we are happy to be collaborating with Centerra on this initial drill campaign to better understand the system and features at Tajitos and Tejo. The target areas are very different with the Tejo large scale under-cover target having extensive prospective ground and this initial work is simply aimed to get a sense of bedrock similar to the drilling methods Riverside has used in Canada to get quantitative geologic data beneath post-mineral cover. Riverside continues to have a strong treasury and will progress with the 2016 plan that we have laid out to create shareholder value.”

Avino Reports Fatal Accident at San Gonzalo Mine

Avino Silver and Gold Mines Ltd. regrets to report the death of two contractors on Saturday, March 5, 2016 due to an accident at the San Gonzalo Mine on the Avino Property in Durango, Mexico.

U.S. Antimony Reports Los Juarez Mill Testing in Progress

CEO John Lawrence said “If a cyanide leach plant is not necessary at the Puerto Blanco mill, a tremendous savings in time and money could be realized for the startup of Los Juarez. Continued growth during 2016 is being funded internally to prevent the dilution of the shareholder base or taking on debt.”

Defiance Steps Out; Continues Intersecting Wide Zones of Silver Mineralization

Bruce Winfield, CEO of Defiance stated, “I am very encouraged by the drill results having again extended the high grade, wide zones of mineralization to 140m below the base of the current resource.These drill intersections demonstrated the robustness of the vein system as we move over 550m along strike. ”
