Shares in Gold Canyon Resources (CVE:GCU) and PC Gold (CVE:PKL) shot up on Tuesday massive trading volumes, after announcing that First Mining Finance Corp. (CVE:FF) will be acquiring all the shares of both explorers.

Arian Silver Corporation, a silver mining company focussed on silver projects in the silver belt of Zacatecas, Mexico, announces that Oliver Rodz and David Laing have each resigned from the Board with immediate effect.

U.S. Precious Metals, Inc. announces that it has received additional assays from its 2015 drilling campaign. The assays for the five holes 18-22 continue to show high values of Gold, Silver and Copper with wide intercepts in multiple locations.

Keith Neumeyer, Chairman of First Mining, stated: “We believe that the current market climate for junior exploration companies remains very challenging and thus requires consolidation and that only companies with attractive assets and supportive shareholder bases will survive this market cycle which still may last for years. We believe this transaction provides an excellent opportunity for the shareholders of all three companies to be part of a leading exploration and development company with a dedicated, focused and experienced management team.”

Source Exploration Corp. today announced the appointment of Ms. Vivian Gu as Chief Financial Officer effective immediately. As a Certified General Accountant, Ms. Gu has 16 years in public practice, corporate accounting and reporting, including corporate financial management.

Ms. Gu will succeed Mr. Lance Dyll who recently accepted a senior accounting position with another employer.

Gold bulls piled into the metal in hopes that the turmoil sweeping financial markets would finally help revive prices. They were wrong. Instead of a rally, futures in New York fell for four straight sessions even as global equities plunged to a two-year low. Rather than providing a refuge from the meltdown, gold’s volatility rose right along with a measure of equity turbulence, diminishing its appeal as a haven. As stocks started to recover, the metal kept falling because of reports that signaled gains for the U.S. economy.

Arian Silver’s Chief Executive Officer, Jim Williams, commented today, “The phased commissioning of the Company’s processing plant has been ongoing during the second quarter of the year.The commissioning process has highlighted the need for remedial work to the tertiary crusher which will result in a delay in completion of commissioning into Q4 this year, and a corresponding delay in mine development. The silver price has continued to fall this year, recently touching a six year low and current market consensus is for continued short-term weakness. Therefore, it has become clear that alterations to the mine plan will be required if profitable production is to be achieved in the current climate…”

“The Company is seeing a very interesting current market opportunity with the potential for equity growth and for yield and distributions, which we believe investors are looking for today. We see the potential to build a focused portfolio of investments in areas that are attracting expansion capital and could see attractive capital appreciation. These areas of focus also highlight the deal flow generation capability and extensive financial market experience of management and our Board of Directors and their respective networks” states Paul Crath, President and CEO.
