Primero Provides an Operations and Corporate Update

“We remain very cognizant of the challenges facing us and remain committed to our Primero stakeholders in working to achieve resolution,” stated Joseph F. Conway, Interim President and Chief Executive Officer. “We continue to advance our strategic process and our objective is to obtain a fair distribution of value for Primero stakeholders. At the same time, we are working on possible alternatives to refinance or repay our revolving credit facility due in November and see the sale of the Black Fox asset as a critical step towards meeting this near-term hurdle.”

Mammoth Resources Reports Average 0.77 Grams per Tonne Gold Equivalent Over a Total of 129 Metres in Surface Channel Sampling Program at its Tenoriba Precious Metal Property, Mexico

Thomas Atkins, President and CEO of Mammoth commented on the channel sample results stating: “With all 14 channel sample results reported we’re pleased to be able to report an average grade of 0.77 grams per tonne gold equivalent over 129 metres of channel sampling in 12 of the 14 channels. Two low grade channels were discarded from this averaging while the 12 channels remaining were distributed over more than a 5 kilometre strike length within the 15 square kilometre area of precious metal mineralization at Tenoriba. These are excellent results with lengthy channels separated from one another by hundreds of metres with an average precious metal grade as much as 80% above the reserve grade of profitable open pit heap leach mines currently operating in Mexico. Based on these results, and results from other prior surface work, the company is well underway to prioritizing diamond drill targets for a drill program planned for later this year…”

Telson Resources Inc. Extends Condolences to those Affected by Today’s Devastating Earthquake in Mexico City

Telson Resources Inc. reports that there have been no damage or adverse effects at its Mexico City office or either the Campo Morado Mine in Guerrero, Mexico or the Tahuehueto Project in Durango State from today’s earthquake which jolted central Mexico. The earthquake was calculated at a 7.1 magnitude and centred near the Puebla state town of Raboso, about 76 miles southeast of Mexico City.

Torex Sub-Sill Growth Potential Confirmed By Step-Out Drilling

Fred Stanford, President & CEO of Torex stated: “The current Sub-Sill resource estimate area is approximately 250m x 150m. The high grade results from the step-out drilling in the quadrant to the NW of the resource area, including a 240m step-out borehole, certainly confirm the potential for additional resources in this direction. Step-out drilling near the resource in the NE quadrant intercepted granodiorite in the target area. Longer range step-out drilling is planned to determine whether the intrusive rocks continue in this direction, or if skarn exists on the ‘other side’ of a localized intrusion. To the SW, several boreholes have been drilled and we are waiting for assays. To the SE, we will wait until after the rainy season to drill in this area.”

Radius Gold samples bonanza grade gold and silver at Amalia Project, Mexico

With Au-Ag mineralization occurring over a vertical interval of 600m at multiple targets over 3.5km strike length, Radius believes there is excellent potential for a significant discovery at Amalia. This initial program has returned encouraging high-grade results. The silica at the main Campamento target is high level with chalcedonic banded and colloform textures and typically low in sulphides. This contrasts with the Guadalupe area located 700m southeast of Campamento and vertically 250m below, where bonanza grade mineralization up to 16.4 g/t Au and 5180 g/t Ag (1m sample) is hosted in sulphide rich veins and breccias. This transition from the rhyolite hosted high level chalcedonic veins to high grade sulphide rich veins within the lower andesites is observed at several of the major deposits of the Sierra Madre gold belt. Radius is currently advancing drill permitting and intends to target wide high grade mineralization within the predicted sulphide zone at depth (200 to 250m) below Campamento.
