Greg McKenzie, President and CEO commented: “We are pleased to see the current drill program is advancing with strong productivity, despite challenges associated with COVID. Infill sampling and assays of previously unsampled areas have generated insight, and allow us to significantly expand mineralized areas, improve continuity and has demonstrated higher grades. As our exploration program continues over the coming months, we look forward to unlocking further value on the San Diego Project.”

“Casados, like El Orito, is the second major epithermal silver and gold discovery our exploration team has made since we began working on the Los Ricos North property only 8 months ago,” said Brad Langille, President and CEO. “These discoveries, along with the resource drilling at El Favor and La Trini, we believe will be paramount to the team defining a significant Mineral Resource Estimate at Los Ricos North in 2021. This additional discovery at Casados continues to strengthen our belief that Los Ricos North is a very large mineralized system.”

“Magna has a promising portfolio of silver projects in Mexico and an ambitious exploration program planned for the year. We expect good results from Margarita, as well as our other properties, and we look forward to reporting the results over the course of 2021.”

“We are very pleased with the results from our inaugural drill program at San Javier. While previously thought to be controlled by low angle structures, our new drill results suggest that the high-grade gold is associated with higher-angled structures in close proximity to what we believe is a heavily mineralized breccia pipe system seen in the drill core.”

Phase four drilling to date has completed 6 drill holes AMDD20-22 to AMDD21-27 for total 2,785 metres. Results have been received for holes AMDD20-22 to AMDD21-25. Drilling is ongoing with drill hole 28 in progress and further drill holes planned.
