Grupo México, Autlán, Minera Frisco y Peñoles registraron un incremento de 16 por ciento en su flujo operativo durante el primer semestre del 2016 como resultado de la fortaleza del dólar frente al peso y una mayor extracción de metales.

“Great Panther’s mine operating earnings before non-cash items increased 96% over the second quarter of 2015 due to higher silver and gold prices, favourable foreign exchange rates, and continued strong operating performance. These factors were also reflected in significant increases in operating cash flow and adjusted EBITDA, and contributed to significant growth in our cash and net working capital balances”, stated Robert Archer, President and CEO. “The substantial increase in our cash flow and margins were also reflective of 74% and 43% reductions in our cash cost and all-in sustaining cost compared to the second quarter of 2015. These came in at an impressive US$1.72 and US$7.19, respectively, for the second quarter. As such, we are taking the step to reduce our cash-cost and all-in sustaining cost guidance for the year while maintaining our production guidance.”

Vendome Resources Corp. is pleased to announce that, further to its news releases dated June 30, 2016 and July 18 2016, it has completed its non-brokered private placement financing for aggregate gross proceeds of $542,562.46, by issuing 59,008,331 units of the Company at a price of $0.0075 per unit for gross proceeds of $ $442,562.48, and 13,333,331 “flow-through” shares at a price of $0.0075 per share for gross proceeds of $99,999.98.

The consideration for the Right is US$2,500,000, of which US$1,900,000 was paid at execution and an additional US$600,000 will be paid in the event the owner of Caballo Blanco receives the approval of the project’s environmental impact statement from SEMARNAT. This US$600,000 contingent payment no longer has an expiration date.

Endeavour CEO Bradford Cooke commented, “Having successfully minimized our all-in sustaining costs and boosted our free cash flows in recent quarters, management returned its attention to optimizing near-term production and long-term growth in Q2, 2016. Our production is well ahead of plan for the year and as a result, we revised our operating plan and raised our production guidance by about 13% for 2016.

Gold Resource Corporation reported production results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016 of 10,011 ounces of gold and 572,499 ounces of silver, which along with base metal revenue generated $26.2 million in net revenue for the quarter. Gold Resource Corporation is a gold and silver producer with operations in Oaxaca, Mexico and exploration in Nevada, USA. The Company has returned $108 million to shareholders in monthly dividends since commercial production commenced July 1, 2010, and offers shareholders the option to convert their cash dividends and take delivery in physical gold and silver.

“Production during the second quarter remained steady and slightly improved from Q1,” stated Brendan Cahill, President and Chief Executive Officer. “As a result of drier underground conditions, we accessed the second level of the Rodilla Manto where further high grade mineralization was mined. With operations on firmer track as a result of our continued efforts to improve operational efficiencies, we expect these improvements to reflect well in our operating costs during the quarter, further benefitted by higher commodity prices. As we move into the third quarter of 2016, we intend to remain focused on improving our operations through the ongoing optimization program, while carrying out exploration drilling near existing infrastructure and following up on high priority, drill-ready targets.”

“Proyectos como Metates, en Durango; Cerro del Gallo, en Guanajuato; Camino Rojo, en Zacatecas y Esperanza en Puebla, que en principio mostraban indicios de buena rentabilidad, debido a la baja en los precios internacionales de los metales y una legislación fiscal menos favorable, decidieron retrasar sus planes y entrar en un proceso de reconfigurar alcances y objetivos, en búsqueda de alternativas que cumplan con las expectativas de los accionistas”, dijo la Cámara Minera de México (CAMIMEX).

“As we await the approval of the MIA for the ‘Don Diego’ project, we remain confident that the project will move forward and our Mexican subsidiary is continuing ongoing efforts to support the environmental approval process with a goal of approval in the second half of 2016. Our current focus is to continue to secure contract work that keeps our offshore team and tools engaged while generating revenue. Although many of these third-party marine service agreements require us to abide by a non-disclosure agreement, I am happy to say that we are currently working on an offshore project on a chartered vessel of opportunity, and we also have additional opportunities in our pipeline that we expect to come to fruition in the near term. We anticipate that our third quarter activities will again generate double the revenue we produced this quarter.”
