Vancouver, B.C. – Starcore International Mines Ltd. (TSX: SAM) (the “Company” ) is pleased to announce that it has engaged Global Kompas (“GK”) to undertake a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) of the Santa Fe Project (“Santa Fe property”) located in Sinaloa, Mexico.

“We believe that moving ahead with a PEA is the next step to demonstrating value to our shareholders and a quintessential step in our due diligence process”, said Robert Eadie, CEO and President of Starcore. “Our goal is to identify the economic viability of an underground operation and the processing of material on our property.” 

The Santa Fe property was previously optioned by another company that completed two exploration programs, with the most recent one in 2014, and concluded with no mineral resources but the discovery of multiple veins and mineral ore shoots. GK will complete the technical study with a mineral resource estimation prepared in accordance with 43-101 standards that will allow several operating scenarios.

Global Kompas understands that Starcore has entered into a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) as announced on November 21, 2017 to acquire the Santa Fe Project. Details of the property and the press release can be viewed here.
