Minera Alamos Announces Positive Preliminary Economic Assessment for the La Fortuna Gold Project with After-Tax IRR of 93%

“With an after-tax Internal Rate of Return in excess of 90%, today’s excellent PEA results confirm that the La Fortuna Project provides a robust base for the next phase of gold production in the Company’s growth pipeline,” commented Darren Koningen, Chief Executive Officer. “The simplified gold recovery process outlined in the study represents a conservative starting point that is well suited to the initial project resource which, to date, has been based exclusively on previously drilled mineralization.”

Goldplay Announces Significant Silver Values of up to 1,285 gpt AgEq Over 1.5 Meter Intersection from Sampling Program on Historical Core, Supporting the High-Grade Nature of the San Marcial Project, and Upside Potential for Resource Expansion

Goldplay President and CEO Marcio Fonseca commented, “Goldplay’s systematic sampling of 22 existing core drill holes (previously only partially sampled) is aimed at expanding resources and delineating mineralized zones to support a high-grade bulk mineable open pit target at the San Marcial Project. We also expect to complete a detailed 3D geological and silver mineralization model. The core reviewed to date reveals a structurally controlled mineralized system, with silver mineralization associated with significant concentrations of lead, zinc and gold, hosted by hydrothermal breccias and fault zones.”

Sable Resources Receives Drill Permit for Don Julio

Sable Resources Ltd is pleased to inform that the company has received all necessary permitting required to drill the Don Julio High-Sulphidation Gold Project located in San Juan Province, Argentina. Don Julio contains the first 5 targets of 15 identified in the 35,000ha San Juan Regional exploration program. Sable has engaged a civil engineering consultancy to assist with road and drill platform design and has conducted site visits with several drilling companies experienced in Andean projects. Road and drill platform construction is scheduled to begin following the end of the southern hemisphere winter in September 2018 with drilling to begin in October 2018. Drilling will target mineralisation at depth below the 2 by 2km Esperanza and 2km by 500m Heaven Hill gold anomalies. Don Julio will be the second project drilled by Sable this year after the recent Margarita discovery in Mexico.
