Thomas A. Doyle, President, CEO, stated “We are very pleased that Alamos has informed us that it has started its field exploration programs on the Los Venados Project. With Alamos’ experience and geologic knowledge of the immediate area with a major gold mine, I look forward to their findings.”
“Initial drilling from the top of the Gap Zone has returned compelling high grade results,” stated Ben Pullinger, Senior Vice President Geology & Corporate Development. “This sub-vertical structure connects the 623 and NE-1S mantos and represents a significant opportunity to define additional mineralization at Platosa. We also continue to define and add further tonnage around known manto mineralization.”
Permitting applications are in progress for the drilling which are expected to take 3 to 4 months to receive. Permit applications are also being prepared for the reopening of the historical Hundida Mine and should take 6 to 10 months to receive.
“The data being obtained from this fence of drill holes will not only target adding silver ounces to the overall resource but also allow us to interpret and model the behavior of this robust mineralized system for future drilling as we expand outwards from the present resource.”
“We are extremely happy to negotiate this favourable and timely deal with Bimsa Minera. The Diamante project sits directly beside our highly prospective El Mezquite project currently being mapped and sampled in preparation for a near-term maiden drilling program. The historical sampling and conceptual geological model for the Diamante property also indicate a favorable environment for finding potential deposits,” said Colibri President & CEO Ron Goguen.
N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng, and CEO, remarked, “We acquired El Picacho only six months ago, and in this short time period, SilverCrest’s exploration team has negotiated surface rights, completed preliminary geological surface and underground exploration work, received a five-year drilling permit, set up a COVID-19 isolation camp with strict protocols, and have already made some significant discoveries. Drilling will continue throughout the year, with an approved total 2021 exploration budget of US$42 million for mostly the Las Chispas Project with some allocated to El Picacho based on success.”
“The El Favor target is demonstrating that not only does it have some high grades in the kilos, but also potentially bulk mineable zones approaching 100m in combined intercepts that are near surface,” said Brad Langille, President and CEO.
As Operator of the Cervantes Joint Venture, Aztec has mobilized a field crew to conduct a +500 soil sample program aimed at extending previous soil grids and covering targets with limited historic exploration.
GR Silver Mining President and CEO, Marcio Fonseca, commented, “We are excited to be undertaking the first major geophysical investigation of the San Marcial Project. The ground based survey of 3D IP and magnetometry will assist our technical team to better understand the underlying geology, map key structures – particularly those not apparent at surface – and to identify potentially mineralized zones both in the vicinity of the San Marcial Ag resource as well as on some of the key target areas identified by the Company over the past two years…”
Ranjeet Sundher, Brigadier’s CEO commented: “We continue to make excellent progress at Picachos, although we have only just started to evaluate the potential of this extensive mineralized system. The additional rig will help considerably in accelerating our investigating the many high priority existing and newly identified targets on the Property…”

GeoInfoMex, is the consultation system of the Mexican Geological Service that allows users to know geoscientific information and make decisions with savings in time and resources, helping to promote mining activity.
The DOF is the organ of the Constitutional Government of the United Mexican States, which has the function of publishing in the national territory, to so that they are properly observed and applied in their respective areas of competence.
