SilverCrest Announces High Metallurgical Test Recoveries For Las Chispas

N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng, President and CEO, remarked, “Another milestone has been completed for the Las Chispas Property which continues to show increasing significance as an emerging high-grade silver-gold district. Historically, there were five mills in the district before 1930, four cyanidation and one flotation, which gave us a good indication that the metallurgy would be amenable to standard processing methods. This indication has now been confirmed with testwork showing excellent metal recoveries. The Las Chispas mineralization is similar to that of the nearby producing Santa Elena Mine (constructed by SilverCrest Mines Inc., the predecessor of SilverCrest Metals), which has current metal recoveries of 90% or greater for both silver and gold. With this metallurgical milestone now behind us, we can more confidentially plan for our Las Chispas maiden resource in Q1 2018.”
