The first seven drill holes were completed on June 14th and the Company is anticipating the final results of gold, silver and multi-element analyses by mid-August. The remaining thirteen holes were drilled with two RC rigs from Layne de Mexico and completed as scheduled on July 28th.

Rob Birmingham, CEO of Brigadier comments, “The most compelling aspect of this round of results is that they are coming from previously unexplored areas of Picachos. As we are located approximately 15 miles from bonanza grade silver discoveries to the north, these findings are truly exciting. With newly built access roads completed, Brigadier is well positioned to concentrate our efforts on this area and further our understanding of its extent and potential.”

Orex’s President & CEO, Ben Whiting, said; “These excellent results from our preliminary metallurgical testing are a very positive step toward the advancement of the Coneto Project. They show that precious metals can be successfully recovered using conventional methods.”

“Encountering massive magnetite early in our drill program is the strongest evidence yet supporting the IOCG thesis for San Javier. This outcome, in combination with silver mineralogical analysis and previous work on IUGS chemical classification for regional igneous rocks made by Dr. Michael Tedeschi in 2010, greatly increases our confidence in the IOCG model for San Javier. Our exploration objectives are to confirm that San Javier has the potential to host a significant silver and gold metal endowment and to be classified in a similar way to currently acknowledged magnetite-group IOCG deposits such as Ernest Henry (Australia), Candelaria (Chile), Sossego (Brazil), Guelb (Mauritania) and Boss (USA).” Stated Christopher Berlet, President and CEO of Canuc.

Chris Wright, Chairman & CEO, commented: “We are encouraged by the discovery of a previously unrecognized silver-bearing vein system in a hanging wall structure that has never previously been tested.”

“We are extremely pleased to announce that mining operations have resumed at the Avino Mine,” said David Wolfin, President and CEO. “Over the last few months, our team has worked diligently as they prepared the mine-site for commencement of operational activities, which included hiring mine personnel and re-establishing the mill circuits.”

“We are encouraged with the results from the Camino Rojo Sulphides drill program. While the geological setting is already well understood, this new information will be meaningful as we refine the geological model and move to focus on possible development approaches,” stated Jason Simpson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Orla Mining.

“We are extremely pleased to be able to initiate a new generation of drilling at Santo Tomas at a time when the acceleration of large copper projects is essential for global economic growth and stability. We are anxious to confirm and extend the historical resources at the North and South Zones, and to commence exploration at the Brasiles Zone, where our 3D DCIP program indicated extensive and compelling chargeability features.”

Canasil President and CEO, Bahman Yamini commented; ”The positive progress with the 2021 drill program at the Nora project and quick completion of successive drill holes is encouraging and a credit to the drill contractors and our operating team. The Candy vein structure is being intersected as projected in every drill hole and we look forward to the results from these drill holes.”

Riverside’s President and CEO, John-Mark Staude: “We are excited to receive the new and first ever drill assay results from the Santa Rosalia Sur target area which begins to outline a strong drill target area at the Cuarentas Project. We are optimistic that with just one initial hole the campaign has encountered two vein areas wide open at strike and depth to continue seemingly above a degassing Laramide porphyry Cu-Au center.”
