N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng, and CEO, remarked, “We first looked at acquiring Picacho in 2016, after the sale of SilverCrest Mines Inc. (SilverCrest’s predecessor) in 2015, as a continuation of our regional exploration program on search of a new district containing multiple precious metal epithermal veins. After 4 years of patience, we have now acquired the next district. The most historic prominent vein in the district, El Picacho Vein, can be easily accessed by a 4 metre by 4 metre underground decline which visually shows the vein underground as approximately 6 metres wide with historic grades and SilverCrest recent sampling results ranging from 350 to 1,000 gpt silver equivalent.”
