SilverCrest Expands Las Chispas Resource: Indicated Resource: 1.0 Million Tonnes 1,234 gpt AgEq for 39.8 Million Oz AgEq, Inferred Resource: 3.6 Million Tonnes 581 gpt AgEq for 68.1 Million Oz AgEq

N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng and CEO, remarked, Less than three years ago we first started drilling the Las Chispas Property and we are now announcing our third resource estimate, including our first Indicated Resource Estimate. We are particularly excited about the high-grade resources delineated at the Babicanora (including HW), Babicanora FW and Babicanora Norte Veins. These three adjacent veins cumulatively host Indicated Resources of 1.0 Million tonnes grading 1,234 gpt AgEq (39.8 million ounces of AgEq). These high-grade resources are near surface and conceptually can be developed using the same underground infrastructure, which may be a key driver of the economics for the project. This Third Mineral Resource Estimate will be used to finalize the ongoing PEA planned for release in Q2, 2019. The Company will continue exploration with seven core drills focused on infill drilling to upgrade additional inferred resources into the indicated category and five core drills testing up to five new vein prospects in H1, 2019.

Leagold Announces 2018 Earnings, Including AISC of $974/oz and AISC Margin of $83.2 Million

Leagold CEO Neil Woodyer commented: “2018 was a transformational year as we grew into a diversified, multi-mine operator with four mines in two countries. In only two years, we have completed two significant acquisitions and established Leagold as a mid-tier gold producer. We are now producing gold at an annual rate of about 400,000 oz per year. Our internal growth projects have potential to grow production to 700,000 oz per year. These growth projects are the expansion of the Los Filos mine complex and the restart of construction of the Santa Luz project. Both have recently completed feasibility studies. We are advancing with construction planning and optimizing the sequencing of the major expansion projects as part of our financial planning.”

Excellon Drills 154 Metres of 101 G/T AgEq at Evolución Further Demonstrating Regional Potential

“We are still in the early days of exploring at Evolución, but the grades, widths and consistency of mineralization that we have intersected along strike and down dip are very encouraging,” stated Ben Pullinger, Senior Vice President Geology. “This drilling has loosely defined a large disseminated mineralized zone and we are working to use this data to vector in on higher grades in future drilling. We continue to view these results as evidence of a large mineralized system especially considering the amount of metal represented in these intersections and the numerous additional veins to be tested regionally.”
