Goldplay Discovers New Gold Zone At San Marcial In Low Sulphidation Epithermal System – Initial Channel Samples Up To 10 g/t Au

Goldplay President and CEO Marcio Fonseca commented, Over the past months Goldplay has actively explored the 1,250 ha of the San Marcial concession with soil, rock chip and channel sampling, identifying and testing targets that will add value to the San Marcial silver resource, by expanding or discovering new mineralized zones. High grade gold results with visible (panned) gold from epithermal quartz veins within artisanal tunnels in the Nava Zone provide encouragement for a gold mineralized low sulphidation epithermal system, just 1.5 km west of the high-grade hydrothermal breccia-hosted silver resource. The new Nava Zone gold discovery suggests that the San Marcial Project has potential to be a significant multi-commodity play, with proven occurrence of gold and silver mineralization together with series of old artisanal mine workings on the Faisanes – Nava Corridor. We are focused on additional sampling and trenching at Nava to define the extent and geometry of the gold mineralization, on surface, and identify targets to follow up with drilling.

Aztec Minerals Interprets Multiple Porphyry Gold-Copper Targets at Cervantes Property in Mexico from Airborne Magnetic and Radiometric Survey Data

Joey Wilkins, President and CEO, commented, We are very pleased to see the airborne geophysical survey at Cervantes successfully identified 11 prospective porphyry target areas, including several newly discovered high-quality targets. Pronounced northeast-southwest trends are enhanced in the new geophysical datasets in addition to clear northwest-southeast trends we believe are important mineralizing controls. We plan to follow up each prospect area with more detailed mapping, sampling and surveying to better define targets for drilling.

First Majestic Produces 6.3 Million Silver Equivalent Ounces in First Quarter

We had a solid start to 2019 with first quarter production totaling 6.3 million silver equivalent ounces,” said Keith Neumeyer, President and CEO. “Pure silver production increased 2% to 3.3 million ounces as a result of higher grades at the San Dimas and La Encantada mines. The commissioning progress of the new La Encantada roaster improved in the month of March but remained below throughput guidance for the full quarter. Nevertheless, La Encantada recorded a significant 60% increase in silver production in the quarter due to higher grades and tonnes processed. Finally, we continue to expect our investments in new innovations such as high-intensity grinding and microbubbles to begin to bear fruit in the second half of 2019 with higher recoveries and production at the Santa Elena, La Encantada and La Parrilla operations.
