Tara Minerals Corp. is pleased to report that an aerial topography survey, covering 5 square kilometers of the Don Roman district, has been completed. The survey results provided Tara with detailed maps from which exact mineral vein locations can be determined. This allows for further correlation, connection and interpretation of surface occurrences in the district. The current work is focused on achieving 2013 Don Roman production and will include delineation/drilling of several of the known structures. All work will be conducted in a NI 43-101 compliant manner.

Soltoro Ltd. has completed three additional diamond drill holes at the El Rayo primary silver project in Jalisco, Mexico. A 350 metre-deep hole was completed below the Las Bolas deposit and two holes were completed north of the La Soledad West deposit. At Las Bolas, 91.3 metres of 129 g/t silver equivalent was intersected including 11.2 metres of massive sulphide mineralization grading 537 g/t silver equivalent encountered 318.8 metres down hole. The deep hole at Las Bolas extends mineralization 70 metres down-dip from the nearest hole with a substantial increase in silver grades. At La Soledad, 0.3 metres of 3,320 g/t silver was returned extending the known high grade silver mineralization an additional 60 metres down dip.

First Mexican Gold Corp. is pleased to announce that it has signed a non-binding letter agreement with Compañía de Minas Buenaventura S.A.A., pursuant to the terms of which BVN has been granted the right, for a period of 60 days from the signing, to complete due diligence and the right, at BVN’s discretion, to negotiate terms and sign a definitive agreement with FMG to earn a 70% interest in the Company’s 100% owned Guadalupe project.

El Tigre Silver Corp. is pleased to report that drilling has started as scheduled with MAJOR DRILLING DE MEXICO, S.A. DE C.V. at its El Tigre silver-gold property in northern Sonora, Mexico.

Mammoth Resources Corp. is pleased to report that it has received assay results from samples taken from its first two exploration campaigns by its geological team exploring the company’s Tenoriba Property, located in the prolific Sierra Madre precious metal belt in south western Chihuahua state, Mexico. The best result from this campaign assayed 23.6 grams per tonne (gpt) gold and 62.1 gpt silver, or 24.84 gpt gold equivalent (using a ratio of 50 gpt silver is equivalent to 1.0 gpt gold based on current gold and silver prices). This single highest gold assay was followed by 26 other samples that exceeded more than 2.0 gpt gold equivalent, 45 results that exceeded 1.0 gpt gold and 85 samples that were anomalous exceeding 0.3 gpt gold equivalent, of a total of 219 samples collected. Furthermore, many of these samples came from areas where mapping and sampling of similarly altered felsic volcanics and breccia with numerous locations of vuggy silica occurred as much as one kilometre to the northeast and to the southwest of the area of focused exploration and drilling by the previous optionor, Masuparia Gold Corporation (Masuparia), where Masuparia assayed up to 45 grams per tonne gold (please refer to press release dated July 3, 2012 for summary results of the Masuparia work).

Prospero Silver Corp. is pleased to announce the results of 360 rock chip samples obtained from the Petate West and Petate East target zones of its 6,000 hectare El Petate project. The Apartadero target is part of the Petate West zone, measuring 1.3 km long and up to 200 meters wide and has shown the most anomalous gold geochemistry to date in jasperoid outcrops and float. Mapping of the Petate West zone shows northwest and east-west trending silicified zones associated with andesitic dikes with the same orientation. Mapping and sampling have to date identified the La Escoba, Apartadero and and Tecolotes silicified reefs. Other as yet unmapped reefs are anticipated west of the Apartadero reef and in the southern extension of the Petate West zone.
