ALIX RESOURCES CORP. announces that Perth-based lithium processing technologist, Lithium Australia NL has moved to a 54% controlling stake in the Electra lithium project in northwest Mexico. The project comprises the Tecolote, Tule, and Agua Fria concessions and is currently the subject of a farm-in and joint venture between Alix and LIT. LIT has the right under the JV terms to earn an ultimate 65% holding in Electra. Lithium Australia moved to the majority 54% ownership on completion of a recent drilling program.

Neil Woodyer, CEO stated: “This updated resource estimate includes a 94% increase in the Measured and Indicated resources and underscores the magnitude of the oxide mineralization of the Bermejal Underground deposit. In addition to converting the previously estimated Inferred resources of 678 koz to mostly Indicated resources, the program has also added 820 koz to the new Inferred resource estimate. The exploration success at Bermejal Underground, which drives this resource update, also supports our development plan to expand Los Filos’ gold production rate. The ramp to access the Bermejal Underground deposit recently commenced and has advanced 27 metres as of October 13, 2017.”

Mexican Gold Corp. is pleased to announce that resource expansion drilling has intersected long intervals of strong chalcopyrite, bornite and magnetite mineralization totaling 77.2 metres at the El Dorado / Juan Bran zone at its Las Minas property.

“The turnaround in production at Platosa was clearly evident during the third quarter, with significantly improved tonnage-per-day, grades and costs,” stated Brendan Cahill, President and Chief Executive Officer. “All-in sustaining cost decreased during the quarter to approximately $11-$13 per payable silver ounce. We are now well positioned to continue ramping up production from four mantos through the fourth quarter and to realize a further decrease in AISC and increase in cash flow.”
