HALIFAX, NS, Dec. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ – GoGold Resources Inc. (TSX: GGD) (OTCQX: GLGDF) ("GoGold", "the Company") announces the financial results for the year ending September 30, 2024, with Parral revenue increasing by 20%, generating $37 million (all amounts are in U.S. dollars) from the sale of 1.4 million silver equivalent ounces.
GoGold – Silver & Gold (CNW Group/GoGold Resources Inc.)
"The SART Zinc circuit addition which we completed in the year has performed well. Not only has the circuit given us a saleable zinc precipitate, but also removing zinc from the solution has increased the leachability of the gold and silver. This has significantly increased the production and profitability at Parral, which we are seeing in our current December quarter," said Brad Langille, President and CEO. "Looking forward to 2025, we are confident we will have our permit for Los Ricos South and be in a position to make a positive construction decision moving towards production of the Company's second operating mine."
Highlights for the year ending September 30, 2024:
Cash of $72.0 million USD
Revenue of $36.5 million on the sale of 1.4 million silver equivalent ounces at an average realized price per ounce of $25.95 USD
Net income of $1.6 million
Production of 1,482,391 silver equivalent ounces, consisting of 553,382 silver ounces, 8,700 gold ounces, 468 copper tonnes, 316 zinc tonnes

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT:
The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the benefit of, U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act) except in compliance with the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or pursuant to exemptions therefrom. This release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy of any of GoGold's securities in the United States.
This news release may contain "forward-looking information" as defined in applicable Canadian securities legislation. All statements other than statements of historical fact, included in this release, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Parral tailings project, the Los Ricos project, future operating margins, future production and processing, and future plans and objectives of GoGold, constitute forward looking information that involve various risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking information is based on a number of factors and assumptions which have been used to develop such information but which may prove to be incorrect, including, but not limited to, assumptions in connection with the continuance of GoGold and its subsidiaries as a going concern, general economic and market conditions, mineral prices, the accuracy of mineral resource estimates, and the performance of the Parral project There can be no assurance that such information will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking information.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from GoGold's expectations include exploration and development risks associated with the GoGold's projects, the failure to establish estimated mineral resources or mineral reserves, volatility of commodity prices, variations of recovery rates, and global economic conditions. For additional information with respect to risk factors applicable to GoGold, reference should be made to GoGold's continuous disclosure materials filed from time to time with securities regulators, including, but not limited to, GoGold's Annual Information Form.

Cautionary non-GAAP Measures and Additional GAAP Measures
Note that for purposes of this section, GAAP refers to IFRS. The Company believes that investors use certain non-GAAP and additional GAAP measures as indicators to assess mining companies. They are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared with GAAP. Non-GAAP and additional GAAP measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
Additional GAAP measures that are presented on the face of the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income include "Operating income (loss)". These measures are intended to provide an indication of the Company's mine and operating performance. Per ounce measures are calculated by dividing the relevant mining and processing costs and total costs by the tonnes of ore processed in the period. "Adjusted cash costs per ounce" and "Adjusted all-in sustaining costs per ounce" are used in this analysis and are non-GAAP terms typically used by mining companies to assess the level of gross margin available to the Company by subtracting these costs from the unit price realized during the period. These non-GAAP terms are also used to assess the ability of a mining company to generate cash flow from operations. There may be some variation in the method of computation of these metrics as determined by the Company compared with other mining companies. In this context, "Adjusted cash costs per ounce" reflects the cash operating costs allocated from in-process and dore inventory associated with ounces of silver and gold sold in the period. "Adjusted cash costs per ounce" may vary from one period to another due to operating efficiencies, grade of material processed and silver/gold recovery rates in the period. "Adjusted all-in sustaining costs per ounce" include total cash costs, exploration, corporate and administrative, share based compensation and sustaining capital costs. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP and GAAP measures, please refer to the Management Discussion and Analysis dated December 11, 2024 for the year ended September 30, 2024, as presented on SEDAR.

VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 10, 2024 /CNW/ – Golden Arrow Resources Corporation (TSXV: GRG) (FSE: G6A) (OTCQB: GARWF), ("Golden Arrow" or the "Company") is pleased to report the results from an additional four drill holes including another infill hole at the Rincones target with over 100 metres of significant copper, gold, cobalt and iron mineralization:
Golden Arrow Resources Corporation logo (CNW Group/Golden Arrow Resources Corporation)
102.6 m averaging 0.22% Cu, 0.04 g/t Au, 100 g/t Co and 16.2% Fe starting at 67.4m depth in SP-DDH-31, including
24.3 m averaging 0.48% Cu, 0.07 g/t Au, 214 g/t Co and 31% Fe
Brian McEwen, VP Exploration and Development for Golden Arrow, commented, "Our Phase 2 Drill Program has gone extremely well. We were initially focused on infill drilling Rincones to support estimating resources but we discovered that the mineralization footprint is much larger in extent than expected and there are often much longer significant intervals downhole than expected, and we still have results from six holes to look forward to. On top of that, indications are that Rincones has the potential to grow even larger with the subsequent drill programs. All of that makes us very excited for our first resource estimate and NI 43-101 technical report that are underway and will be completed early next year."
Mr. McEwen continued, "In addition to the drill program the team has been busy with surface exploration work and has identified new prospects within our 20,000 hectares of concessions. Data is being processed and we expect to be able to announce exciting new drill targets next year that could be tested in the Phase 3 drill program, once we are issued the new permit to expand our drill platforms. We are very pleased to be ending the year on such a positive note and look forward to continued success in 2025."
The holes reported herein are part of the Phase 2 diamond drilling campaign at the San Pietro Iron Oxide-Copper-Gold-Cobalt ("IOCG") Project in Chile ("San Pietro" or the "Project") announced on April 24, 2024. The drilling is now complete, with twenty-seven holes drilled totaling approximately 9100m. Assays from the final six holes are pending and expected early in the new year.
The Company has engaged independent consultants and Qualified Persons to complete its first Mineral Resource Estimate and the supporting NI 43-101 Technical Report for the Project. Resource modelling and supporting work is underway with completion targeted early in 2025, pending the final assays from Phase 2.

San Pietro Phase 2 Drill Program Details
The San Pietro Project hosts multiple targets with strong Iron oxide-Copper-Gold and Cobalt mineralization (see Figure 1).This mineralization is typically found within a pile of fine to porphyritic andesites that exhibit widespread potassic feldspar alteration. The mineralization is often associated with areas where a superimposed quartz-scapolite alteration is more intense and there is a development of brecciation and massive replacement of magnetite.
In 2023, the Company completed a Phase 1 drill program of approximately 4000 metres of diamond drilling in 13 holes to add to the database of ~34,000 metres of historic drilling at San Pietro. Strongly mineralized intervals were intercepted at all targets tested as reported in company news releases on June 13, June 27 and July 12, 2023.
The Company focused this Phase 2 drill program mainly on the Rincones advanced exploration target with the goal of completing an initial Mineral Resource Estimate. In addition, 2 holes (SP-DDH-25 and SP-DDH-34) with a total of 607 metres were drilled at the nearby Colla target.
SP-DDH-31
This hole was collared in the NE part of the Rincones target, 50 metres along section from SP-DDH-18 and drilled in the opposite direction, to the SSW (see Figure 2). Hole SP-DDH-31 confirmed the presence of a sub-horizonal magnetite manto body from 146 to 188 metres deep that is an offset of the mantos reported in SP-DDH-18 which returned multiple mineralized intervals including 39.8 m averaging 0.27% Cu, 0.06 g/t Au, 144 g/t Co and 30.8% Fe (see news release dated August 8, 2024). Mineralization in the magnetite mantos of SP-DDH-31 includes scapolite-actinolite alteration with disseminated pyrite crosscut by a series of magnetite-quartz-moly-pyrite veinlets plus specularite with chalcopyrite, following the general model of the target. The magnetite mantos are very high in iron and returned a best interval of 11.15 m with 0.64% Cu, 0.10 g/t Au, 44.1% Fe and 383 g/t Co. As in most of the holes in the NE of Rincones, this interval is anomalous in molybdenum with 99 g/t Mo. This high iron interval is within an interval of 24.3 m with assays that average 0.48% Cu, 0.07 g/t Au, 214 g/t Co, 31% Fe and 58 g/t Mo (see Table 1).
SP-DDH-32
On the north-western edge of the Rincones target hole SP-DDH-32 was collared 80 metres NW of historic hole RA11DH-008 to test the western continuity of a system of E-W trending specularite breccias. In the first 95 metres, hole SP-DDH-32 intercepted a series of specularite-calcite veinlets and breccias in the oxide zone with the best intercept of 12.2 m averaging 0.31% Cu starting at 6 m deep.
SP-DDH-33
Hole SP-DDH-33 targeted the SE extension of the mineralization at the Rincones target. From 302 to 329 metres it intercepted a series of veinlets and crackle breccias with calcite-specularite-chalcopyrite-pyrite, with the best intercepts shown in Table 1. From 378.73 to 381.38 m a specularite breccia with patches of chalcopyrite-pyrite averaged 2.61% Cu and 0.14 g/t Au over 2.65 m.
SP-DDH-34
The Colla target is approximately two kilometres southwest of Rincones and while grades of copper and gold can be significant, it is mainly considered a shallow, high cobalt and iron prospect, both of which can add significant value to IOCG deposits. Collared 210 metres NW of SP-DDH-02, SP-DDH-34 was designed to test sub-outcropping massive magnetite replacement bodies. From surface to 170 metres depth, a series of magnetite mantos with disseminated pyrite were intercepted. Iron values were very high, with a best interval of 13.82 metres grading 55.6% Fe, as shown in Table 1. Below these magnetite mantos several crackle breccias with chalcopyrite and pyrite contain elevated cobalt mineralization, including 8.6 metres averaging 0.17% Cu and 454 g/t Co (Table 1).

Methodology & QA/QC
This drilling campaign was completed by Sociedad de Servicios Andinos SpA of Copiapó, Chile, using diamond drill producing HQ-sized core. The Golden Arrow field team, supervised by senior geologists, photographed and logged the entire length of core for each drillhole, as well as measured it for recovery and marked it for sampling. Pieces of whole core approximately 10 to 15 cm long were selected and measured for specific gravity on average every 20 metres and targeting all different lithologies. Subsequently, the core was cut in half with an electric saw. One half was labelled, bagged and sent for analysis and the other half retained onsite. After completing the sampling of each hole, the samples were shipped to ALS Laboratory in Copiapó, Chile by a contract truck service. Sample preparation and gold analysis by Fire Assay and reading by atomic absorption on 30 gm sample by method Au-AA23 was completed at the ALS facility in Santiago de Chile. Multi-element package by ICP-OES reading following a four-acid digestion by method ME-ICP61 was performed at ALS facilities in Lima, Peru. Samples with over limits in copper (+ 10,000 ppm) were re-assayed by ore grade method Cu-OG62 that includes four acid digestion and ICP-OES reading. The Company follows industry standard procedures for the work carried out on the San Pietro Project, with a quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) program. Blank and standard samples were inserted in each batch of samples sent to the laboratory for analysis. Golden Arrow detected no significant QA/QC issues during review of the data. The trajectory of all the holes drilled at San Pietro during this Phase 2 were measured using the gyroscope equipment "Champ Navigator" that assures no interference from the magnetite in the ground. Additionally, all the core was orientated using the "Champ Ori" core orientator to measure the azimuth and dip of structures.
About the San Pietro IOCG Project
The San Pietro Project covers approximately 20,000 hectares, 100 kilometres north of Copiapó. Situated between and adjacent to Capstone Copper's Manto Verde Mine property and Santo Domingo Project, San Pietro is in the centre of a potential new copper-iron-cobalt district within an active, well-developed mining region that is home to all the major iron oxide-copper-gold ("IOCG") deposits in Chile.
The Project is hosted by andesite units in a Cretaceous-aged volcano-sedimentary sequence associated with intrusive rocks including granodiorites and diorites of similar age. The Project is located east of the Atacama Fault system, a major north-south regional structure, which was instrumental in controlling the emplacement of the ore deposits in the area.
Mineralization at San Pietro is typical of an IOCG system, with the addition of cobalt, and occurs in mantos, breccias and veins within a zone of alteration characterized by an association of actinolite, epidote, chlorite and scapolite. The mantos are replacement of andesite by magnetite and sulphides, with a roughly southeast strike and a gentle dip to the SW. Breccias and veins crosscut the mantos, are often subvertical, and filled with specularite and sulphides.
Qualified Persons
The exploration programs are designed by the Company's geological staff and results are reviewed, verified (including sampling, analytical and test data) and compiled under the supervision of Brian McEwen, P.Geol., VP Exploration and Development to the Company. Mr. McEwen is a Qualified Person as defined in National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the contents of the news release.

Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Dundee Corporation is a publicly owned investment manager with a market cap of CA$150.99 million.
Operations: The company’s revenue is primarily derived from its Mining Services segment, which generated CA$3.72 million, along with contributions from Corporate and Others amounting to CA$4.00 million.
Market Cap: CA$150.99M
Dundee Corporation, with a market cap of CA$150.99 million, primarily derives its revenue from its Mining Services segment. The company has recently completed the redemption of preferred shares, which may improve financial flexibility. Despite lacking significant revenue streams (CA$6 million), Dundee reported substantial net income gains due to large one-off items impacting results. While the company’s debt levels are satisfactory and short-term assets cover liabilities comfortably, operating cash flow remains negative. The management and board are experienced, but the Return on Equity is low at 9.3%. Its Price-To-Earnings ratio suggests it might be undervalued compared to the broader Canadian market.

Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★★★
Overview: Eloro Resources Ltd. is involved in the exploration and development of mineral properties in Bolivia and Peru, with a market cap of CA$93.14 million.
Operations: Eloro Resources Ltd. currently does not report any revenue segments.
Market Cap: CA$93.14M
Eloro Resources Ltd., with a market cap of CA$93.14 million, focuses on mineral exploration in Bolivia and Peru but remains pre-revenue. Recent developments include a private placement to raise CA$2.7 million, potentially extending its cash runway beyond the current seven months forecasted under free cash flow estimates. The company is debt-free and has sufficient short-term assets to cover liabilities, though it faces ongoing losses without profitability expected in the near term. Management changes aim to bolster strategic direction as Eloro advances its Iska Iska project, emphasizing increased drilling density for better resource definition and potential economic viability assessments.

Additionally, there has been significant insider selling over the past three months. Recent management changes include the appointment of Pierfranco Malpenga to strengthen strategic oversight.

HALIFAX, NS, Oct. 15, 2024 /CNW/ – GoGold Resources Inc. (TSX: GGD) (OTCQX: GLGDF) ("GoGold", "the Company") is pleased to report production for the quarter ending September 30, 2024 of 406,150 silver equivalent ounces, consisting of 167,001 silver ounces, 2,232 gold ounces, 132 tonnes of copper, and 100 tonnes of zinc.
GoGold – Silver & Gold (CNW Group/GoGold Resources Inc.)
"The quarter yielded continuing production growth, and more importantly we saw a substantial increase in production in the month of September where the heap achieved equilibrium at a level generating significant free cash flow for that month. The addition of the zinc circuit, along with other optimizations, has not only paid off in a saleable zinc product and recycling of the associated cyanide, but also it appears that it has improved the leaching of gold and silver," Brad Langille, President and CEO stated. "As we complete final engineering and anticipate the issuance of our permit for the Los Ricos South underground mine, we see Parral adding meaningfully to our cash flow on a go-forward basis."

Brian McEwen, VP Exploration and Development for Golden Arrow, commented, "We have now completed about two thirds of our Phase two drill program which will provide the data to estimate the first mineral resource at San Pietro, focused on the Rincones target. The results to date have upheld our confidence in the long-term potential of the project and we are committed to continuing work to build value for our shareholders. The DIA will provide the ability for additional drilling to expand and upgrade resources at Rincones as well as continue exploration at the earlier stage targets on the project."
Ambiental y Sectorial, who will prepare the DIA, is a well-regarded firm with vast experience in preparing applications for and obtaining environmental permits for the mining and energy sector and has advised major companies in several challenging permitting assignments. The DIA will involve several environmental studies, including baseline flora & fauna and archaeological work, to comply with the environmental regulations in Chile. Work will be initiated in October and it is expected that the DIA will be completed and submitted to the relevant authorities in the first quarter of 2025.
About the San Pietro IOCG Project
The San Pietro Project covers 19,200 hectares, approximately 100 kilometres north of Copiapo. Situated between and adjacent to Capstone Copper's Manto Verde Mine property and Santo Domingo Project, San Pietro is in the centre of a potential new copper-iron-cobalt district within an active, well-developed mining region that is home to all the major iron oxide-copper-gold ("IOCG") deposits in Chile.
The Project is hosted by andesite units in a Cretaceous-aged volcano-sedimentary sequence associated with intrusive rocks including granodiorites and diorites of similar age. The Project is located east of the Atacama Fault system, a major north-south regional structure, which was instrumental in controlling the emplacement of the ore deposits in the area.
Mineralization at San Pietro is typical of an IOCG system, with the addition of cobalt, and occurs in mantos, breccias and veins within a zone of alteration characterized by an association of actinolite, epidote, chlorite and scapolite. The mantos are replacement of andesite by magnetite and sulphides, with a roughly southeast strike and a gentle dip to the SW. Breccias and veins crosscut the mantos, are often subvertical, and filled with specularite and sulphides.
Qualified Persons
The exploration programs are designed by the Company's geological staff and results are reviewed, verified and compiled under the supervision of Brian McEwen, P.Geol., VP Exploration and Development to the Company. Mr. McEwen is a Qualified Person as defined in National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the contents of the news release.
About Golden Arrow:

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking InformationThe information in this document may contain forward-looking statements or information (collectively, “FLI”) within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation. FLI is based on expectations, estimates, projections and interpretations as at the date of this document.
All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included herein are FLI that involve various risks, assumptions, estimates and uncertainties. Generally, FLI can be identified by the use of statements that include, but are not limited to, words such as “seeks”, “believes”, “anticipates”, “plans”, “continues”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “expects”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “projects”, “predicts”, “proposes”, "potential", “targets” and variations of such words and phrases, or by statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “will”, “could”, “would”, “should” or “might”, “be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved.”
FLI in this document may include, but is not limited to: statements regarding the results of the PEA; the potential future performance of the Common Shares; future drill results; the Company’s ability to convert inferred resources into measured and indicated resources; environmental matters; stakeholder engagement and relationships; parameters and methods used to estimate the MRE’s at Fenelon and Martiniere (collectively the “Deposits”); the prospects, if any, of the Deposits; future drilling at the Deposits; and the significance of historic exploration activities and results.

WHITE ROCK, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 23, 2024 / Honey Badger Silver Inc. (TSXV:TUF) ("Honey Badger" or the "Company"), a Canadian-based company with silver projects in Canada, including the Nanisivik Project in Nunavut, reports that as of January 18th, 2024, the Canadian government has passed revisions to its mining laws aimed at boosting exploration and development in Canada's northernmost region. The Canadian government has transferred control of mineral reserves in the Territory to the legislative assembly of Nunavut, which will now dictate economic terms for companies operating in the region. The move is expected to boost mineral exploration and development in the Territory.
The Company's CEO, Dorian L. (Dusty) Nicol, commented, "We view this development as extremely positive for our wholly owned Nanisivik Project (the "Project") and for mineral explorers and developers operating in Nunavut as a whole. Honey Badger continues to focus on growing the Project to an eventual resource of up to 100 million ounces of silver at a grade of 30-50 g/t. Our target is based on the large tonnages of pyrite bodies at Nanisivik containing anomalous concentrations of silver as well as, locally, germanium, gallium, and indium, which have not been evaluated in the context of current metals prices. In addition, with the construction of a deep-sea port adjacent to Nanisivik, the pyrite bodies themselves may have significant commercial value. Nanisivik could become one of the few turnkey projects in the region with strong leverage to increasing silver prices and could be a key component of development in one of Canada's most sparsely populated regions."
About NanisivikThe Nanisivik Mine (near Arctic Bay, Nunavut) produced over 20 million ounces of silver between 1976 and 2002, from 17.9 million tons of ore, grading 9% zinc, 0.72% lead, and 35 grams per ton silver (1). In addition to the polymetallic orebody, previous exploration identified massive sulphide bodies (principally pyrite), totaling about 100 million tons (1,2), containing base metal and silver values not economic at the time.
Geological Survey of Canada, 2002-C22, "Structural and Stratigraphic Controls on Zn-Pb-Ag Mineralization at the Nanisivik Mississippi Valley-type Deposit, Northern Baffin Island, Nunavut; by Patterson and Powis.
A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify this historic tonnage estimate as a current mineral resource and the Company is not treating the estimate as a current mineral resource. The historic tonnage estimate cannot be relied upon. Additional work, including verification drilling / sampling, will be required to verify the estimate as a current mineral resource.
Amended Stock Option PlanThe Company has amended its 10% rolling stock option plan (the "Amended Option Plan") to comply with the requirements of the new TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") policy governing security-based compensation which became effective on November 24, 2021. The most significant change introduced by the new policy, and is included in the Amended Option Plan, permits the exercise of stock options which are "in the money" by eligible participants, without the holder being required to have the requisite funds to exercise such stock options, through the addition of a cashless exercise and a net exercise component, and more closely aligns with plans permitted by the Exchange.
The shareholders ratified the Amended Option Plan at the Company's annual meeting of shareholders held on December 15, 2022 (the "Meeting"). Additional details regarding the amendments are contained in the management information circular filed on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) on November 15, 2022, in respect of the Meeting.
The Amended Option Plan remains subject to final acceptance of the Exchange.
Qualified PersonTechnical information in this news release has been approved by Dorian L. (Dusty) Nicol, the Company's CEO (PG, FAusIMM), who is a Qualified Person ("QP") for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101.
About Honey Badger Silver Inc.Honey Badger Silver is a silver company based in White Rock, British Columbia focused on the accretive acquisition and development of silver ounces. The company is led by a highly experienced leadership team with a track record of value creation backed by a skilled technical team. Our projects are located in areas with a long history of mining, including the Plata high grade silver project located 165 km east of Yukon's prolific Keno Hill and our Sunrise Lake exploration property located in the Northwest Territories, 130 kilometers northeast of Yellowknife. The Company also has a significant land holding at the Nanisivik Mine Area located in Nunavut, Canada that produced over 20 Moz of silver between 1976 and 2002.(1,2) Honey Badger Silver is positioned to be a top tier silver company with our unique approach of acquiring silver resources and prospective ground at low cost and adding value by targeted exploration on the steepest parts of the value-addition curve. Our objective is to demonstrate the value / prospectiveness of our silver projects in order to attract joint venture partners who will spend their money to advance our projects while we retain a royalty on the silver.

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 23, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AURCANA SILVER CORPORATION ("Aurcana" or the "Company") (TSXV: AUN) is pleased to announce that it has shipped its first concentrate production from its wholly owned Revenue-Virginius Mine, located in Ouray, Colorado, USA.
The Company continues to mine high-grade ore during this time of reduced underground capacity. The processing system’s capability has been demonstrated through the mill operating at design capacity and the ability to produce shippable concentrate. However, the lack of consistent ore feed from the mine has been a bottleneck to optimizing processing performance.
Going forward, the near term operating plan is to continue to mine the two available stopes on the 1800 level and create a stockpile that will help ensure a longer period of sustained processing run-time. It is expected enough ore will be stockpiled to enable the processing plant to restart again during the first week of January.
Although the delays in specific underground development projects has meant the mine has been slower to get to full production than originally planned, a number of very important milestones have been achieved for the Revenue-Virginius Mine restart. First, the grade on the 1800 level based on assay results from samples taken from development advance shows the grade is as expected or better when compared against the geological model. The Company expects to be incorporating these assay results into future resource work. Second, the mine has proved the resue mining method works well for this ore-body in both dilution and geotechnical control features. And third, the processing facility has demonstrated that it can perform when given suitable ore feed to run at design rates and make sellable concentrates.
The Company continues to evaluate its development plan and timeline and will update shareholders in the new year. The #1 Raise Hoist remains the main bottleneck to achieving target mining productivities and its completion is a key to the success of the overall operation. Work on the #1 Raise Hoist continues and is the number one priority in the mine. Completion is now scheduled for May of 2022.
Aurcana also announces the resignation of Brian Briggs from the position of Chief Operating Officer of Aurcana Silver Corp and from the position of Chief Executive Officer of Ouray Silver Mining Inc (“OSMI”). The responsibilities and duties of these positions will be shared among existing managers and officers of the Company and OSMI.

The external fund manager backed by Berkshire Hathaway's Charlie Munger, Li Lu, makes no bones about it when he says 'The biggest investment risk is not the volatility of prices, but whether you will suffer a permanent loss of capital.' It's only natural to consider a company's balance sheet when you examine how risky it is, since debt is often involved when a business collapses. We note that Gem Diamonds Limited (LON:GEMD) does have debt on its balance sheet. But the real question is whether this debt is making the company risky.
Debt and other liabilities become risky for a business when it cannot easily fulfill those obligations, either with free cash flow or by raising capital at an attractive price. Part and parcel of capitalism is the process of 'creative destruction' where failed businesses are mercilessly liquidated by their bankers. However, a more frequent (but still costly) occurrence is where a company must issue shares at bargain-basement prices, permanently diluting shareholders, just to shore up its balance sheet. Of course, plenty of companies use debt to fund growth, without any negative consequences. The first step when considering a company's debt levels is to consider its cash and debt together.
View our latest analysis for Gem Diamonds
The image below, which you can click on for greater detail, shows that Gem Diamonds had debt of US$14.7m at the end of June 2021, a reduction from US$23.6m over a year. But it also has US$33.9m in cash to offset that, meaning it has US$19.2m net cash.
We can see from the most recent balance sheet that Gem Diamonds had liabilities of US$43.1m falling due within a year, and liabilities of US$112.0m due beyond that. Offsetting these obligations, it had cash of US$33.9m as well as receivables valued at US$6.55m due within 12 months. So its liabilities total US$114.6m more than the combination of its cash and short-term receivables.
This is a mountain of leverage relative to its market capitalization of US$116.4m. Should its lenders demand that it shore up the balance sheet, shareholders would likely face severe dilution. Despite its noteworthy liabilities, Gem Diamonds boasts net cash, so it's fair to say it does not have a heavy debt load!
Even more impressive was the fact that Gem Diamonds grew its EBIT by 406% over twelve months. If maintained that growth will make the debt even more manageable in the years ahead. There's no doubt that we learn most about debt from the balance sheet. But it is future earnings, more than anything, that will determine Gem Diamonds's ability to maintain a healthy balance sheet going forward. So if you're focused on the future you can check out this free report showing analyst profit forecasts.
Finally, while the tax-man may adore accounting profits, lenders only accept cold hard cash. Gem Diamonds may have net cash on the balance sheet, but it is still interesting to look at how well the business converts its earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) to free cash flow, because that will influence both its need for, and its capacity to manage debt. In the last three years, Gem Diamonds created free cash flow amounting to 4.2% of its EBIT, an uninspiring performance. That limp level of cash conversion undermines its ability to manage and pay down debt.
Although Gem Diamonds's balance sheet isn't particularly strong, due to the total liabilities, it is clearly positive to see that it has net cash of US$19.2m. And it impressed us with its EBIT growth of 406% over the last year. So we don't have any problem with Gem Diamonds's use of debt. There's no doubt that we learn most about debt from the balance sheet. However, not all investment risk resides within the balance sheet – far from it. Be aware that Gem Diamonds is showing 2 warning signs in our investment analysis , and 1 of those shouldn't be ignored…
When all is said and done, sometimes its easier to focus on companies that don't even need debt. Readers can access a list of growth stocks with zero net debt 100% free, right now.

It is usually uneventful when a single insider buys stock. However, When quite a few insiders buy shares, as it happened in Dundee Precious Metals Inc.'s (TSE:DPM) case, it's fantastic news for shareholders.
While insider transactions are not the most important thing when it comes to long-term investing, logic dictates you should pay some attention to whether insiders are buying or selling shares.
See our latest analysis for Dundee Precious Metals
In the last twelve months, the biggest single sale by an insider was when the President, David Rae, sold CA$304k worth of shares at a price of CA$7.60 per share. That means that even when the share price was below the current price of CA$7.90, an insider wanted to cash in some shares. When an insider sells below the current price, it suggests that they considered that lower price to be fair. That makes us wonder what they think of the (higher) recent valuation. However, while insider selling is sometimes discouraging, it's only a weak signal. This single sale was 100% of David Rae's stake. David Rae was the only individual insider to sell over the last year. Notably David Rae was also the biggest buyer, having purchased CA$337k worth of shares.
Over the last year, we can see that insiders have bought 85.27k shares worth CA$337k. But insiders sold 40.00k shares worth CA$304k. Overall, Dundee Precious Metals insiders were net buyers during the last year. The average buy price was around CA$3.95. It is certainly positive to see that insiders have invested their own money in the company. However, we do note that they were buying at significantly lower prices than today's share price. You can see a visual depiction of insider transactions (by companies and individuals) over the last 12 months, below. By clicking on the graph below, you can see the precise details of each insider transaction!
There are plenty of other companies that have insiders buying up shares. You probably do not want to miss this free list of growing companies that insiders are buying.
Looking at the total insider shareholdings in a company can help to inform your view of whether they are well aligned with common shareholders. Usually, the higher the insider ownership, the more likely it is that insiders will be incentivised to build the company for the long term. Our data indicates that Dundee Precious Metals insiders own about CA$11m worth of shares (which is 0.7% of the company). Whilst better than nothing, we're not overly impressed by these holdings.
The fact that there have been no Dundee Precious Metals insider transactions recently certainly doesn't bother us. On a brighter note, the transactions over the last year are encouraging. Overall we don't see anything to make us think Dundee Precious Metals insiders are doubting the company, and they do own shares. So these insider transactions can help us build a thesis about the stock, but it's also worthwhile knowing the risks facing this company. While conducting our analysis, we found that Dundee Precious Metals has 2 warning signs and it would be unwise to ignore them.
Of course, you might find a fantastic investment by looking elsewhere. So take a peek at this free list of interesting companies.
For the purposes of this article, insiders are those individuals who report their transactions to the relevant regulatory body. We currently account for open market transactions and private dispositions, but not derivative transactions.

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – October 6, 2021) – Quaterra Resources Inc. (TSXV: QTA) (OTCQB: QTRRF) (the "Company") today announced positive results from a ten-hole core drilling program totaling 5,147 feet (1,569 meters) that was recently completed. The ten-hole program was designed to assess the likelihood that further drilling would upgrade portions of the resource from Inferred to Indicated and expand the overall size of the current resource. Mr. Travis Naugle, CEO states, "We believe that additional drilling could accomplish these exciting objectives." These results are further discussed below and outlined in Table 1 below.
Three holes (QM-319, QM-320, and QM-328) were drilled on the north to northwestern edge of the current resource. Each hole intersected oxide and chalcocite mineralization. Significant intercepts include drill hole QM-320 (31.1 m @ 0.58% Cu, including 22.6 m @ 0.70% Cu); QM-328 (23.5 m @ 0.44% Cu); and QM-319 (10.8 m @ 0.14% Cu). Each drill hole contains additional acid soluble copper intercept (Table 1).
Holes QM-326 and QM-327, drilled on the southern edge of the current oxide resource (Figure 1), each intersected near surface oxide mineralization. Significant intercepts include 6.7 m @ 0.27% Cu and 7.3 m @ 0.70% copper from QM-326 and QM-327, respectively. Both holes also indicate the potential for additional oxide resource expansion to the south and southeast (Figure 2).
Drill holes QM-321 and QM-322 were drilled on the south/southeastern edge of the current oxide resource. Both drill holes intersected near surface oxide mineralization; QM-321 intersected 13.7 m @ 0.17% copper and QM-322 intersected 31.1 m @ 0.11% Cu. Both drill holes also indicate the potential for an additional oxide resource to the south. In addition, QM-322 was collared on a legacy MacArthur sub-grade stockpile, from which 12.3 m @ 0.13% copper was identified. The MacArthur sub-grade stockpile has not previously been sampled but based on these results, the Company may consider evaluating it for additional resource potential.
It is expected that the above results could increase the resource (Figure 2) and upgrade a portion of the current resource from inferred to measured/indicated status. The MacArthur resource estimate is in the process of being updated by Independent Mining Consultants (IMC); it is expected to be completed before the end of 2021.
Two additional drill holes (QM-323 and QM-324) were drilled to explore for additional oxide resource farther east and infill from previous oxide intercepts in this area. Each drill hole identified short, scattered oxide intercepts, and identified additional chalcocite and chalcopyrite mineralization. QM-323 includes 24.4 m @ 0.20% copper in the form of chalcopyrite and QM-324 includes 9.8 m @ 0.39% copper in the form of chalcocite and chalcopyrite. Please see Table 1 for additional intercepts. The potential for additional drilling in this area is under further evaluation.
Drill holes QM-319 and QM-320 were drilled to depths of 243.8 m and 362.3 m, respectively, to test under-drilled induced polarization geophysical anomalies. Both drill holes intersected zones of primary mineralization, occurring as wispy quartz-sericite-biotite-sulfide veinlets/vein haloes, which are commonly associated with porphyry-style mineralization in the Yerington District. These two drill holes provide important guidance for primary sulfide drilling in future programs.

TORONTO, October 06, 2021–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Aquila Resources Inc. (TSX: AQA, OTCQB: AQARF) ("Aquila" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive arrangement agreement (the "Arrangement Agreement") with Gold Resource Corporation ("GORO") (NYSE American: GORO) providing for the acquisition by GORO of all the issued and outstanding common shares of Aquila by way of a plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the "Transaction").
As announced by Aquila on September 7, 2021, pursuant to the Transaction GORO will, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, acquire all the issued and outstanding Aquila shares for 0.0399 of a GORO share per Aquila share (the "Exchange Ratio"). Based upon the 20-day volume-weighted average price ("VWAP") of GORO’s shares on the NYSE American stock exchange on September 3, 2021, being the last trading day prior to the date of the announcement of the Transaction, the Exchange Ratio represents a 29% premium to the 20-day VWAP of Aquila’s shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange as of such date.
Upon closing of the Transaction, the existing GORO and Aquila shareholders will own approximately 85.1% and 14.9%, respectively, of the combined company on a fully diluted basis.
Barry Hildred, Executive Chair of Aquila, commented, "We believe strongly that the Transaction outlined in the Arrangement Agreement provides significant benefits to Aquila shareholders. GORO has a strong balance sheet, it owns a consistently profitable mine in the Americas, and it has a highly accomplished technical and operating team. As such, this Transaction materially de-risks the financing and development of the Back Forty Project for the benefit of our stakeholders."
Guy Le Bel, President & CEO of Aquila, added, "The new Gold Resource Corporation will be a multi-jurisdictional, diversified precious and base metal producer with an attractive growth profile underpinned by the Back Forty Project. We look forward to closing the Transaction in short order."
Strategic Rationale for the Transaction
As previously announced on September 7, 2021, the benefits of the Transaction to GORO and Aquila shareholders include the following:
Enhanced Market Presence and Re-Rating Potential. GORO currently benefits from inclusion in the VanEck Junior Gold Miners ETF (the "GDXJ") and from an average daily trading volume of approximately 1 million shares, trailing three months. The Transaction is intended to result in the Back Forty Project being placed into production on a more accelerated basis, funded by cash flow generation, thus elevating the combined company to intermediate producer status. Following the completion of the Transaction, GORO is expected to continue to be included in the GDXJ and to benefit from an enhanced capital markets profile in the United States and Canada, as well as increased trading liquidity and broadened appeal to global index, resource, and generalist investors. This offers the potential for a re-rating to a multiple more in line with other intermediate gold producers.
Enhanced Project and Jurisdictional Diversification. Each of GORO and Aquila is currently a single-asset, single-jurisdiction company. Through the Transaction, GORO and Aquila shareholders will have the opportunity to participate in the ongoing growth of a multi-jurisdictional, diversified precious and base metal producer with exposure to gold, silver, zinc, copper and lead through GORO’s producing Don David Gold Mine in Oaxaca, Mexico and Aquila’s Back Forty Project in Menominee County, Michigan.
Growth Profile and Financial Strength of Combined Company. The combined company is expected to benefit from a peer leading growth profile, a robust balance sheet with no debt and cash of US$30.2 million at June 30, 2021, free cash flow generation from its Don David Gold Mine and the synergies that generally accrue from scale in the areas of general and administrative expenses, from less duplication of salaries, wages and other public company expenses, improved concentrate sales and marketing and supply chain efficiencies.
Materially De-Risks the Financing and Development of the Back Forty Project for Aquila Shareholders. Benefitting from the free cash flow generated by the Don David Gold Mine, Aquila shareholders will not be diluted by a near-term equity financing that would otherwise be required to advance the Back Forty Project through the final stages of permitting and engineering. GORO is supportive of Aquila’s project development plans including continuing working towards an optimized Feasibility Study. The combined Company’s position of financial strength is also expected to result in an improved ability to access required additional financing to fund the Back Forty Project’s construction capital expenditures.
All-Stock Transaction Enables Aquila Shareholders to Maintain Upside Exposure. Through their ownership in the combined company, Aquila shareholders will maintain exposure to the value that is expected to be unlocked as the Back Forty Project is advanced towards construction and production. Despite being a proven gold producer, GORO currently trades at only approximately 2.5 times free cash flow from operations. Aquila shareholders will participate in the anticipated re-rating of GORO from a one mine company in Mexico to a two-mine company with jurisdictional diversification.
Experienced Management Team. The combined company will benefit from GORO’s and Aquila’s technical and operational teams’ expertise in polymetallic open pit and underground mines. The GORO executive team has a demonstrated record of success in developing and operating mining projects in the Americas.
Demonstrated Consistent Dividend History. Post-Transaction, GORO intends to continue to pay dividends in accordance with its past practice. GORO has made consistent dividend payments to its investors for more than ten years.
Transaction Summary
The Transaction will require the approval of (i) 66⅔ percent of the votes cast by Aquila shareholders and (ii) a simple majority of the votes cast by the minority shareholders (excluding shareholders whose votes are required to be excluded pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61 – 101) at a special meeting of shareholders (the "Aquila Shareholder Meeting"). The Aquila Shareholder Meeting is scheduled to be held on November 17, 2021. The Transaction is also subject to approval by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) and applicable stock exchange approvals. The Transaction does not require the approval of GORO’s shareholders.
In addition to shareholder, court and regulatory approvals, the Transaction is also subject to the satisfaction of certain other closing conditions that are customary for a transaction of this nature, and each of GORO and Aquila has provided appropriate interim period covenants regarding the operation of its business in the ordinary course. The Arrangement Agreement includes customary deal protection provisions pursuant to which Aquila has agreed not to solicit any other acquisition proposal (subject to customary fiduciary out rights), has agreed to grant GORO the right to match any superior proposal, and will pay a termination fee of US$1,000,000 to GORO if the Arrangement Agreement is terminated in certain circumstances.
Details of the Transaction and the Arrangement Agreement will be set out in the management information circular to be prepared and mailed to Aquila shareholders in connection with the Aquila Shareholder Meeting.
Subject to all conditions precedent to completion of the Transaction being met, the Transaction is expected to close in late November 2021. In connection with the closing of the Transaction, Aquila will apply to have its shares delisted from the Toronto Stock Exchange.
Support for the Transaction from Key Aquila Stakeholders
Each of Orion Mine Finance and Hudbay Minerals Inc., which hold 28.3% and 10.4%, respectively, of the issued and outstanding Aquila shares, has entered into a voting support agreement with GORO pursuant to which they have agreed to vote their Aquila shares in favour of the Transaction. In addition, all of the directors and officers of Aquila holding approximately 1.9% of the issued and outstanding Aquila shares in aggregate have also executed a voting support agreement.
Osisko Bermuda Limited, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd, and a party to gold and silver stream agreements with Aquila relating to the Back Forty Project, has also reiterated that it considers GORO to be an approved purchaser under those agreements, and that it is supportive of the Transaction.
Board Approvals
The Arrangement Agreement has been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both GORO and Aquila. The Aquila board’s approval of the Arrangement Agreement was based in part on the unanimous recommendation of a special committee of independent directors of Aquila which was appointed to consider the Transaction. The board of Aquila has received an opinion from PI Financial Corp. that based upon and subject to the assumptions, limitations, and qualifications set forth therein, the consideration to be received by Aquila shareholders pursuant to the Transaction is fair, from a financial point of view, to Aquila shareholders.

Howard Marks put it nicely when he said that, rather than worrying about share price volatility, 'The possibility of permanent loss is the risk I worry about… and every practical investor I know worries about.' So it might be obvious that you need to consider debt, when you think about how risky any given stock is, because too much debt can sink a company. We note that Hochschild Mining plc (LON:HOC) does have debt on its balance sheet. But the more important question is: how much risk is that debt creating?
Debt and other liabilities become risky for a business when it cannot easily fulfill those obligations, either with free cash flow or by raising capital at an attractive price. Ultimately, if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt, shareholders could walk away with nothing. However, a more usual (but still expensive) situation is where a company must dilute shareholders at a cheap share price simply to get debt under control. By replacing dilution, though, debt can be an extremely good tool for businesses that need capital to invest in growth at high rates of return. The first step when considering a company's debt levels is to consider its cash and debt together.
Check out our latest analysis for Hochschild Mining
You can click the graphic below for the historical numbers, but it shows that Hochschild Mining had US$209.8m of debt in June 2021, down from US$227.1m, one year before. However, its balance sheet shows it holds US$256.9m in cash, so it actually has US$47.1m net cash.
The latest balance sheet data shows that Hochschild Mining had liabilities of US$195.2m due within a year, and liabilities of US$376.7m falling due after that. On the other hand, it had cash of US$256.9m and US$90.4m worth of receivables due within a year. So its liabilities total US$224.5m more than the combination of its cash and short-term receivables.
Hochschild Mining has a market capitalization of US$927.7m, so it could very likely raise cash to ameliorate its balance sheet, if the need arose. But it's clear that we should definitely closely examine whether it can manage its debt without dilution. Despite its noteworthy liabilities, Hochschild Mining boasts net cash, so it's fair to say it does not have a heavy debt load!
Even more impressive was the fact that Hochschild Mining grew its EBIT by 142% over twelve months. That boost will make it even easier to pay down debt going forward. The balance sheet is clearly the area to focus on when you are analysing debt. But ultimately the future profitability of the business will decide if Hochschild Mining can strengthen its balance sheet over time. So if you're focused on the future you can check out this free report showing analyst profit forecasts.
Finally, a business needs free cash flow to pay off debt; accounting profits just don't cut it. While Hochschild Mining has net cash on its balance sheet, it's still worth taking a look at its ability to convert earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) to free cash flow, to help us understand how quickly it is building (or eroding) that cash balance. During the last three years, Hochschild Mining produced sturdy free cash flow equating to 66% of its EBIT, about what we'd expect. This free cash flow puts the company in a good position to pay down debt, when appropriate.
While Hochschild Mining does have more liabilities than liquid assets, it also has net cash of US$47.1m. And we liked the look of last year's 142% year-on-year EBIT growth. So is Hochschild Mining's debt a risk? It doesn't seem so to us. When analysing debt levels, the balance sheet is the obvious place to start. But ultimately, every company can contain risks that exist outside of the balance sheet. For instance, we've identified 2 warning signs for Hochschild Mining that you should be aware of.
At the end of the day, it's often better to focus on companies that are free from net debt. You can access our special list of such companies (all with a track record of profit growth). It's free.

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – October 5, 2021) – IMPACT Silver Corp. (TSXV: IPT) (OTC Pink: ISVLF) ("IMPACT" or the "Company") is pleased to announce high grade silver results from an underground development drilling program in the Lipton area of its Guadalupe Mine in the Royal Mines of Zacualpan District, Mexico.
Guadalupe Mine Underground Drilling – Lipton Vein Area
Holes MPZ-UG-001-21 to MPZ-UG-020-21 tested the northwest trending Lipton, Liptonia and San Lorenzo veins from three underground drill stations on Level 110 of the Guadalupe Mine's extensive workings. The drill holes covered the vein systems over a strike length of 430m and a vertical distance of 200m.

Lipton |
The Lipton and Liptonia Veins have been significant production veins in the Guadalupe Mine since at least the 1970's, long before IMPACT acquired the project in 2006. Before then historical records describe mining at Guadalupe going back almost 500 years to 1529. Lipton / Liptonia has been mined and traced over a strike length of 1.5 kilometres, to a depth of over 200m, and remain open for extension. IMPACT continues mining at Guadalupe which currently provides almost 50% of mill feed to the 550 tpd Guadalupe processing plant located just 40m from the mine entrance.
Fred Davidson, CEO and President of IMPACT comments, "The high grade results at our current producing Guadalupe mine is a testament of our geological team's understanding of mineralization and potential of the area.
With 20,000 meters of drilling underway in 2021 and newly added underground diamond drill to our internal fleet, our team is aggressively expanding our understanding of the veins mineralization and beyond to add both ounces and blue sky potential to the IMPACT story."
The recently purchased underground diamond drill (see IMPACT news release dated February 1, 2021) has allowed faster drill production with improved core recovery and greater depth capacity giving IMPACT a much improved ability to test the potential of Guadalupe's multiple vein systems as well as mineralization at its other mines. Recent improvements to the Guadalupe Mine's infrastructure including the upgrading of the main shaft hoist has given better access to the mine's six levels and the refurbishing of the 900m underground railroad system on Level 195 provides cost efficient access to the far western reaches of the extensive workings.

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AURCANA SILVER CORPORATION ("Aurcana" or the "Company") (TSXV: AUN, OTCQF: AUNFF) is pleased to provide an update on development progress for the 1800 level stopes and mill operations.
The mill construction is complete and final commissioning of the mill is ongoing. Development ore was stockpiled for processing during the commission period with final commissioning to coincide with stope ore. Mill throughput has been tested as high as 13 tons per hour (tph) 312 tons per day (tpd) without any major issues arising. The targeted mill throughput is 270 tph. Both lead and zinc concentrates are being produced and it is anticipated that the first shipment will occur during the week of October 4th. Although early in the start-up process, metallurgical performance of the mill and flotation circuits appear to be as forecast in the Feasibility Study.
Lateral development on the 1800 level is progressing well; the first stope ore came online from the 1800 level on September 25th. Geological sampling of development headings shows an average weighted silver equivalent grade of 39 ounces per short ton, with grades as high as 196 ounces per short ton (AgEq/ton) compared to the modeled grades in the same area of approximately 27 AgEq/ton.
The first stope will be brought into the production sequence in phases, based on the timeline indicated in Figure 1.
Figure 1 accompanying this announcement is available at: https://www.globenewswire.com/NewsRoom/AttachmentNg/5581892c-832f-407a-b034-d518cc6653c8

Excellon Resources (NYSE: EXN) today announced results from underground drilling at the Platosa Mine in Durango, Mexico. Among the highlights, the company reported further high-grade results from the 623, NE-1S, and Guadalupe South mantos, with diamond drilling results from underground.
“Drilling at Platosa continues to define high-grade mineralization ahead of production,” said SVP of Geology and Corporate Development Ben Pullinger. “With EX21UG690, we have potentially discovered a new zone of very high-grade mineralization sitting below the historically mined upper part of the 623 Manto. This mineralization is located approximately 80 metres above the deepest current development heading and appears to have a vertical attitude that was not tested in historical drilling. Follow-up drilling to test this zone is an immediate priority of the ongoing drill campaign.”
