States Antonio Berlanga, Telson CEO, “In our ongoing quest to maximize the returns from Campo Morado production we are excited to embark on Albion Process testing, an exciting new proven technology, to liberate gold and silver from mines with refractory gold and silver mineralization. If testing proves successful, we intend to fast-track funding the capital costs and installation of the Albion Process recovery equipment and technology during 2019. Thereafter, we believe Campo Morado will transition from predominantly a zinc producer, into a primary precious metal producer with strong base metal by-products which will certainly and positively impact the mines profitability.”

Leagold CEO Neil Woodyer commented: “As we are nearing the completion of our site-wide studies on options for Los Filos mine expansion, the integration and scheduling of the mining and processing of the four sources of ore is a complex task to optimize. We now have the good problem of re-scheduling to include this significant increase in gold reserves at the Los Filos open pit which will contribute to the production schedule until 2027. This is just one component of the expanded Los Filos mine, and it provides an indication of the expansion potential. We are also completing studies to update the mineral reserves for Los Filos underground and Bermejal open pit, establish an initial mineral reserve for Bermejal underground, and evaluate the increased benefits of constructing a carbon-in-leach plant to improve recovery rates.”
