Catalin Chiloflischi CEO stated: “We are pleased to accept this indicative offer of an US$8 million debt financing (up to US$10 million if needed) from a well-known resource fund. The funds will be used to develop the El Compas mine and refurbish and upgrade the La Plata plant for production late this year. El Compas should be an economically robust, low cost mine with all in sustaining costs estimated at US$614 per ounce of gold equivalent. Considering the PEA was done at a gold price of US$1,100, today’s higher spot gold price should enhance our financial returns. Canarc is now on the doorstep to a much brighter future and I want to thank our shareholders for their patience and confidence. “

“Few world-class gold projects have scalable mine options. The Updated PFS demonstrates that an initial smaller mine with staged development at Metates can deliver attractive operating metrics with strong economics at current metal prices. Metates scalable approach is achievable due to the deposit’s highest grades being realized early in the mine life, a very low strip ratio, low energy costs and proximity to key existing infrastructure. For our stakeholders, the Updated PFS also meets the industry’s highest and best standards with respect to water stewardship and tailings management,” stated P. Randy Reifel, President of Chesapeake.

Endeavour CEO Bradford Cooke stated: “We delivered another solid year of operating performance in 2015, beating our guidance for silver production, cash costs and all-in sustaining costs and meeting our gold production guidance.

“Strong operating results translated into substantial increases in our operating margins and operating cash flow for 2015, despite continued declines in silver and gold prices”, stated Robert Archer, President & CEO. “Production increased 30% as a result of the ramp-up of San Ignacio and improvements in grade control and operating efficiencies. These factors, combined with favourable foreign exchange rates, also resulted in significantly reduced cash cost and all-in sustaining cost. In addition, our strong operating cash flow enabled us to invest in strategic initiatives and fund advanced exploration projects while maintaining our strong cash and working capital balances.”

“We are proud to have a close and positive working relationship with the concession vendors and are pleased to welcome them as shareholders of the Company,” stated Stephan Jedynak, President and CEO. “The modified purchase agreement terms will allow us to put the majority of the proceeds from our ongoing financing into the project and the planned 3,000 metre maiden drill program at Pino de Plata.”
