Riverside Expands Into Canada Staking New High-Grade Gold Project

Riverside’s President and CEO, John-Mark Staude, stated: “The Oakes Project is the first project Riverside’s generative team has staked in western Ontario and the Company plans to continue diversifying its portfolio with further Canadian gold prospects when high-quality acquisition opportunities present themselves.

We are pleased with the greater than 20 g/t gold assay results from our initial work at the Oakes Project and plan to follow up these positive results with more mapping, sampling and survey work in 2019. Our aim is to define compelling drill targets to attract quality partnerships and provide our shareholders with additional discovery opportunities.”

Silver Bull Makes New Discovery and Intercepts 13.25 Meters of Massive Sulphide Grading 9.05% Zinc, 2.12% Lead and 16g/t Silver, Including 5.85 Meters Grading 11.93% Zinc, 2.83% Lead and 24g/t Silver in Coahuila, Mexico

Tim Barry, President, CEO and director of Silver Bull states, ‘Four of the five holes announced in this news release are focused within the Palomas Negros area. This is a historical mining area that lies 9 kilometers to the west of the main deposit at Sierra Mojada. The Palomas Negros area has never been assessed with modern exploration techniques and has long been recognized as an exciting target to be followed up. Work is ongoing to fully understand the controls on the mineralization at Palomas Negros, but to get a high grade intercept over 13.25 meters in a first pass drill pass drill program is very encouraging, especially so close to surface.’

More importantly, Tucano started to show additional meaningful improvement in grade and recovery after the commissioning of the supplemental oxygen system at the end of April.
