    Silver X Announces Preliminary Economic Assessment for the Tangana Mining Unit Expansion

    https://www.accesswire.com/739…ana-Mining-Unit-Expansion
    "The PEA shows the great growth potential of Tangana and supports the Company's vision to triple current production capacity over the next few years," stated José García, CEO and Interim Chairman of Silver X. "The objective is to have two milling facilities - a new mill at Tangana, as outlined in this PEA, along with the existing mill, which is currently producing from Tangana but that will in the future process mineral from Plata (formerly referred to as Esperanza) and other mineralized areas in the district. This PEA represents the first technical and economic evaluation of the deposit at Tangana, demonstrating a manageable initial capital cost for the new mill and multiple opportunities for project growth. We will continue to evaluate resource expansion at Tangana with the possibility of further synergies with nearby deposits and the proposed project infrastructure. We envision solid organic growth within our district-scale project, with the expectation of an increase in production capacity from 720 tonnes per day to 2220 tonnes per day by 2026."
    Mr. García continued: "The updated resource estimate within the PEA also demonstrates remarkable success in upgrading resources at Tangana and clearly shows how effective exploration can be for the project. I believe that we might only be in the early stages of a much larger and profitable mining project."
    PEA Highlights

    • Upgraded Mineral Resources to 3.60Mt of Measured and Indicated ("M&I") Resources from 0.98Mt in the 2022 Mineral Resource Estimate and 11.89Mt of Inferred Resources from 14.94Mt with a new resource block model, representing 3X growth in M&I Resources when compared to the previous reported estimate.
    • Life of Mine ("LOM") of 12 years at a capacity of 1,500 tonnes per day ("tpd") based on a resource inventory of 5.75Mt, of which 1.75Mt corresponds to Measured Resources, 0.49Mt corresponds to Indicated Resources and 3.51Mt corresponds to Inferred Resources.
    • Average annual production of 4.2 million ounces ("Moz") of silver equivalent ("AgEq")1 with circa 5Moz AgEq mined.
    • Robust economics with an After-Tax NPV of $175 million at 10% discount rate and After-Tax IRR of 39%.
    • LOM Cash Costs of $8.8/oz AgEq and LOM All-In Sustaining Costs ("AISC")2 of $16.2/oz AgEq.
    • Initial Capex of $61 million, including 20% contingency, for the new processing facility, dry-stacked tailings and mine development.

    PEA Mining, Processing and Environmental and Social Impact Study
    The goal for the Nueva Recuperada Silver District is to have two milling facilities: a new plant for the Tangana Mining Unit with a capacity of 1500 tpd as indicated in the PEA (see Figure 1) in addition to the current Nueva Recuperada mill of 720 tpd located 15 km south of Tangana and central to the other mineralized areas in the district (see Figure 2). The existing mill would be dedicated to processing minerals from the Company's Plata project and other mineralized areas.

    Another Peru Mine Shuts Operations as Anti-Government Protests Gain Momentum


    https://thedeepdive.ca/another…t-protests-gain-momentum/


    Buenaventura, a Peruvian mining company, has halted mining operations at its Julcani mine amid worsening anti-government protests.


    This is not an isolated incident in the country, as other miners have also been affected by the protests. Last month, vandals attacked Glencore’s Antapaccay copper mine, while Chinese miner MMG announced last month that its Las Bambas mine is preparing to suspend production in wake of road blockades that halted transportation of key materials.

  • Allgemeine Sachlage bei Minenaktien

    Almost five years ago I wrote a blog post titled, “BANG: Why The Gold Miners Could Soon Make FANG Look Tame.” A reader recently reached out to ask if I would post an update so here it is. The chart below plots two custom indexes: FANG (META, AMZN, NFLX, GOOG) versus BANG (GOLD, AEM, NEM). Clearly, there has been some back and forth between the two with the BANG stocks taking the lead and holding it over the past year or so. Frankly, I’m surprised they haven’t done better but more on that in a bit. As for the FANG stocks, it’s pretty remarkable to see them generate essentially zero return as a group since mid-2018, even after their strong runup to start the year.

    Yamana Gold team in pursuit of a ‘big whale’ with launch of private capital mining venture
    https://www.theglobeandmail.co…d-mining-private-venture/
    Yamana Gold Inc. YIR-T founder Peter Marrone and the miner’s outgoing CEO Daniel Racine are launching a private equity-style venture, aimed at taking stakes in struggling mining companies with the view to turning them around for a big profit.
    The pair, who will joined by a handful of other Yamana executives, plan to invest in early stage gold exploration companies, but the team will also consider taking much bigger bets on companies that already have mines in production.
    “If there’s a big whale that comes along, that’s the one,” Mr. Marrone said in interview.

    i-80 Gold Intersects 12.3 g/t Au Over 10.7 m in New Target at Ruby Hill

    https://www.prnewswire.com/new…-ruby-hill-301741798.html
    RENO, Nev., Feb. 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ - i-80 GOLD CORP. (TSX: IAU) (NYSE: IAUX) ("i-80", or the "Company") is pleased to announce that drilling has identified new zone of high-grade gold mineralization in its first hole drilled to test a new target area at the Company's 100%-owned Ruby Hill Property ("Ruby Hill" or "the Property") located in Eureka County, Nevada.
    [Blockierte Grafik: https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/1998106/i_80_Gold_Corp_i_80_Gold_Intersects_12_3_g_t_Au_Over_10_7_m_in_N.jpg?w=400]Figure 1 – Ruby Hill Surface Plan (CNW Group/i-80 Gold Corp)[Blockierte Grafik: https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/1998105/i_80_Gold_Corp_i_80_Gold_Intersects_12_3_g_t_Au_Over_10_7_m_in_N.jpg?w=400]
    Figure 2 – Cross Section 428 Zone (CNW Group/i-80 Gold Corp)High-grade gold mineralization was intersected in the first hole drilled to test continuity of a historic intercept below the Archimedes pit. A historic hole (HC1428) drilled by Homestake Mining Company intersected 15.0 g/t Au over 5.5 m, however no additional drilling was ever completed. Late in the 2022 drill program, this target was tested with a step-out hole, iRH22-65, that intersected high-grade mineralization at the projected target depth (see Figures 1 & 2 and Table 1).
    Highlight results from hole iRH22-65 drilled to test the 428 Zone:

    • 428 Zone : 12.3 g/t Au over 10.7 m (0.36 oz/ton – 35.0 ft)

    The 428 Zone is located approximately 300 metres east of the southern portion of the Ruby Deeps Zone and is one of several brownfields exploration targets tested in the highly successful 2022 exploration program at Ruby Hill. This program resulted in multiple gold, polymetallic and base metal discoveries including the Hilltop Zones where drilling has returned significant high-grade carbonate replacement mineralization (CRD) including 515.3 g/t Ag, 28.9 % Pb, 10.5 % Zn & 0.9 g/t Au over 28.3 m in hole iRH22-43 (Upper Hilltop). The 428 Zone is located below the Archimedes pit and appears to be a combination of distal-disseminated gold mineralization overprinted by later Carlin-type gold mineralization. The mineralization is hosted within the top of the Hamburg dolomite at the contact with overlying metamorphosed Dunderberg Shale with close proximity to the Blanchard fault. The Blanchard fault structure was one of the primary feeder structures of the multiple mineralized zones mined in the pit. No other holes have tested this contact in proximity to the Blanchard fault presenting a significant upside target at Ruby Hill. Additionally, the Hamburg dolomite represents a new host of Carlin-type mineralization on the Property and follow-up drilling will be completed during the ongoing 2023 exploration program.
