Terra Balcanica Provides Exploration Activities Update on High Grade Silver and Gold Targets at Viogor-Zanik Project in Bosnia

Vancouver, British Columbia, April 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Terra Balcanica Resources Corp. (“Terra” or the “Company”) (CSE:TERA; FRA:UB1) is pleased to provide an update from the Phase I and II exploration drilling within its principal 168 km2 Viogor-Zanik project in Bosnia-Herzegovina.

The Company completed approximately 2,200 m of drilling along a shallow, high grade, silver-dominated, intermediate sulfidation polymetallic Ag-Au-Pb-Zn-Sb vein system at the locality known as Chumavichi (Figures 1 and 2). This semi-continuous, 7.2 km-long structural corridor associated with a low magnetic response was previously largely untested by drilling and hosts altered volcanic tuffs and breccias with occurrences of massive Pb, Zn and Fe sulphides.

At the Company’s second Viogor-Zanik target of Brezani (Figures 1 and 3), Terra discovered a surficial auriferous skarn superimposed on an Ag-Pb-Zn-Au mineralized, NE-shallowing structural system itself overlying porphyry andesites stock from 550 m of depth. The target is characterized by overlapping 1.2 km wide magnetic and EM anomalies with over 700 meters wide Au-Bi-Zn anomaly at surface and banded skarn outcrops with sphalerite and chalcopyrite. Similar geophysical signatures are detected at the 4.1 Moz Au Eq. Rogozna Au-Cu skarn project in SW Serbia. The Company completed approximately 1,200 m of diamond drilling at Brezani with additional assays to be released shortly.

Highlights

  • Maiden Chumavichi Ridge drillhole CMVDD001 intercepted 824.2 g/t AgEq. over 4.0 m from 29 m of depth, including 1,634.4 g/t AgEq. over 2.0 meters;
  • Chumavichi Ridge drill hole CMVDD002 intercepted 816.1 g/t AgEq. over 2.0 m;
  • CMVDD003, an 83-meter step-out from CMVDD001, intercepted a vein interval of 465.5 g/t AgEq. over 8.7 meters, including 1196.6 g/t AgEq. over 2.0 meters, and is open at depth;
  • The step out drillhole CMVDD005 returned 284 g/t AgEq over 10.0 m including 895.8 g/t AgEq over 2.0 m (see Figure 3) approximately 50 m west-northwest of CMVDD002;
  • The Chumavichi Ridge drillhole CMVDD004 along the same drill fence 40 m northeast of CMVDD005 returned 505.3 g/t AgEq over 11.0 m from 43.0 m depth including 3075.4 g/t AgEq (108.5 oz/t AgEq) over 1.7 m;
  • Shallow, polymetallic mineralization was also intersected 600 m NW of the discovery hole at the Cumavici Ridge where two drill holes through a new parallel structure returned 531 g/t AgEq over 0.75 m (CMV23007), and 355 g/t AgEq over 1.10 m (CMV23009);
  • The Phase II drillhole CMV23004 intersected 1,168 g/t AgEq over 1.35 m from 36.2 m downhole to add 42 m strike length SE of CMVDD002 with mineralization remaining open and untested down-dip (Figure 2);
  • Drillhole CMV23003 intersected 457 g/t AgEq over 4.15 m from 43.85 m downhole and points to a wider down-dip continuation of the high-grade mineralization from the previously reported CMV23004 (Figure 2);
  • Drill testing of the 650 m-wide, conductivity high at the centre a 1.2 km wide anomalously magnetic rock volume at Brezani intercepted 0.61 g/t AuEq over 88.0 m (BREDD002) and 0.58 g/t AuEq over 28.6 m (BREDD001). Continuation of this drillhole along same azimuth and dip to depth of 674 m has intercepted a substantial width of low to intermediate sulphidation epithermal mineralization and potassically altered, porphyritic andesites overprinted by chlorite from 550 m depth (Figure 3).

Cumavici is observed in the NW of the license package with the Brezani discovery 12 km to the SE. The operating Sase mine producing 350ktpa of Pb-Zn-Ag-Sb-Au concentrate is located 7 km east of Chumavichi (WGS84/UTM Zone 34N click here to view image).

Terra Balcanica CEO, Dr. Aleksandar Mišković, comments: “After a year of systematic targeting followed by approximately 3,400 m of diamond drilling over the last two years, we are proud to lay claims to two precious metal rich, polymetallic discoveries at an emerging European mining jurisdiction. Our systematic high grade silver intercepts from two of the five defined Chumavichi corridor targets are indications of its outstanding potential considering it is located only 7 km west of Mineco’s silver mine at Sase. Our recent discovery of similar polymetallic mineralization at Brezani adds further value to this multi-domain target. There, a significant mineralized intercept underlies the previously confirmed auriferous skarn starting from surface and overlies a porphyry system which Terra has been targeting at Viogor-Zanik from the very outset. We believe the potential of our discovery at Brezani is tremendous considering the shallowing of the epithermal mineralization along a presumed fault to northeast and stratigraphic intercept below the boiling horizon which will be targeted by our future drill programs. Collectively, this is a thrilling development for Terra as we aim to release assay results from additional five drill holes at Brezani and prepare for a continued definition of this massive magmatic-hydrothermal system in eastern Bosnia”

The mineralization remains untested and open down dip to the southwest and entirely open to the NW. The high-grade mineralization footprint currently sits at approximately 92 m (strike length) by 150 m in down dip direction (click here to view image).

Upcoming Results

Laboratory assays results from section of drill hole BREDD002 below 215 m depth (Figure 3) are pending QA/QC verification and will be released imminently. Additionally, four more diamond drill holes (BRE23001-004) between depths of 120 and 160 m that tested the surface gold bearing calc-silicates and magmatic breccias will be released in comings months.

Drillhole BREDD002 is shown, with a tabular conductivity feature extending to the ENE from the epithermal mineralized interval. Conductivity feature is interpreted as the continuation of the host structure with increased conductivity due to sulphide and clay within the broken rock mass. It passes through a break in the magnetics, which is further evidence of structural control (click here to view image).

Peabody Provides Update on First Quarter 2024 Results

ST. LOUIS, April 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Peabody (NYSE:BTU) today announced preliminary unaudited financial results for the first quarter of 2024. The company expects to report first quarter revenue of $980 million; income from continuing operations, net of income taxes of $45 million; and Adjusted EBITDA1 of $160 million. These amounts are estimates, actual first quarter 2024 financial results will be released on May 2, 2024.

Sales volumes in the first quarter were largely in-line with expectations for our seaborne segments while the U.S. thermal segments reported lower than expected shipments. The seaborne thermal segment shipped 4.0 million tons (including 2.5 million export tons), the seaborne met segment shipped 1.4 million tons, the PRB segment shipped 18.7 million tons and the Other U.S. thermal segment shipped 3.2 million tons.

First quarter results were impacted by the following factors: 1) unfavorable seaborne thermal coal mix as a result of lower production at Wambo due to an extended longwall ramp-up offset by additional production of lower quality coal at Wilpinjong; 2) lower average realized prices in the seaborne metallurgical coal segment due to HVA and PCI to HCC price relativities significantly below historical levels and mining of lower quality coal at the CMJV; 3) higher than anticipated costs at the CMJV from an unplanned dragline outage and the acceleration of planned coal prep plant repairs; 4) lower U.S. thermal volumes due to unseasonably warm weather and continued low natural gas prices; and 5) an approximate $18 million non-cash remeasurement of AUD denominated monetary assets.

“Our first quarter included some unforeseen production challenges that are now behind us,” said Peabody President and Chief Executive Officer Jim Grech. “The CMJV dragline and Wambo longwall are again operating on plan and Shoal Creek continues to exceed production expectations as we begin the second quarter.”

On Thursday, May 2, 2024, Peabody will announce results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.  An investor conference call with management is scheduled for 10 a.m. CT on May 2, 2024.

Emperor Announces Final Results from 2023 Exploration Campaign and Strategic Insights for 2024 at the Duquesne West Gold Project

ROUYN-NORANDA, Quebec, April 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GLOBEX MINING ENTERPRISES INC. (GMX – Toronto Stock Exchange, G1MN – Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Berlin, Munich, Tradegate, Lang & Schwarz, LS Exchange, TTMzero, Düsseldorf and Quotrix Düsseldorf Stock Exchanges and GLBXF – OTCQX International in the US) reports that today Emperor Metals Inc. (“Emperor”) (CSE: AUOZ, OTCQB: EMAUF, FSE: 9NH), announced additional assay results and achievements from the 8,579 meter, 2023 drilling campaign at the Duquesne West Gold Project under option from Duparquet Assets Ltd., a 50% owned subsidiary of Globex Mining Enterprises Inc.

Emperor has reported the following in today’s press release:

“Emperor has been targeting a multi-million-ounce resource in a combination conceptual open pit and underground mining scenarios. This campaign, guided by the innovative application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning, was strategically designed to achieve two major objectives:

  • Explore anticipated extensions of high-grade targets suitable for both underground and open-pit mining.
  • Identifying potential infill opportunities within a conceptual open-pit model. Historically, the potential for lower-grade, bulk tonnage contributory ounces was overlooked.

Highlights of Emperor’s 2023 Drilling Campaign:

  • Extensions of High-Grade Targets:Exploration drilling has successfully identified extensions of high-grade mineralization favorable to both underground and open pit mining methods, underscoring the robust potential of the project.
    • 10.8 m of 15.8 g/t Au (DQ23-05)
    • 11.7 m of 5.63 g/t Au (DQ23-01)
    • 13.2 m of 3.75 g/t Au (DQ23-09)
  • Opportunities in Conceptual Open Pit Model:Drilling and resampling has unveiled promising potential for the conceptual pit, previously classified as waste, that are now recognized for their potential to expand and improve the basic economics. Some notable thickness include:
    • 25.0 m of 1.69 g/t Au (DQ23-02)
    • 11.75 m of 0.61 g/t Au (DQ23-10)
    • 24.4 of 0.5 g/t Au (DQ23-05)
  • Expansion of Mineralization Footprint: A continuous trend of mineralization extending over 1.2 kilometers east of the conceptual open-pit model has been discovered, significantly expanding the overall footprint of mineralization at the project.
  • Fully Funded 2024 Drilling Program: Emperor is fully funded for a 5,000-meter drilling program set to commence in Q2 of 2024, building on the successes of the 2023 campaign.

Upcoming Drilling Season:

Emperor is fully funded for a 5,000-meter drilling program to begin in Q2 of 2024. These results will be used to refine their A.I. models which will aid in targeting in the 2024 drill season. Emperors strategy is focused on evaluation of increasing potential ounces for a later mineral resource update. Most of Emperor’s work in 2024 will be concentrated on the open pit concept; where they see potential to add ounces cost effectively by expanding the footprint and/or adding incremental ounces to the conceptual open pit.

Emperor is also sampling near-surface core from Globex’s historical core library that was not assayed. Up to 70% of this core has not been assayed. So far, over 3,000 meters have been sampled. This is a huge benefit to shareholders,   acquiring additional assays without drilling, saving capital while having no shareholder dilution.

Summary of Drill Results:

2023 Recent Drilling Results

Full results for DQ23-10 to DQ23-14 and unsampled historical core have been released from SGS Laboratories (see Image 1 and Table 1 intercept highlights). The strategy of diamond drillholes DQ23-10 to 14 and the assaying of historic unsampled intervals was to determine if the Phase 1 pit could be extended westward to connect smaller satellite pits and add incremental ounces in the previously unsampled host rock. Affirmation of both scenarios bolstered support for growth. Both the smaller Phase 1 and Ultimate Pit Conceptual Model contain mineralization in the host rock that surrounds the high-grade zones.

  • DQ23-10 intersects 11.75 meters (m) of 0.61 g/t Au
  • DQ23-14 intersected 5.0 m of 0.83 g/t Au.

Up to 70% of the core is un-assayed in Emperors conceptual open pit models. These lower grade, additional bulk tonnage ounces within the open-pit conceptual model are very significant for reducing strip ratio and improving overall economics in a combination open-pit and under-ground mining scenario.

Historic Core Sampling
Historic drill core sampling was confined to the potential Phase 1, Open Pit areas where intervals within previous obtained drill-core were not sampled (see Image 1 and Table 1). This was the best strategic option for evaluation in the inaugural drill program.

Drillholes DQ10-11 and DQ11-22 revealed the potential to add incremental ounces to the main portion of the Phase 1, pit shell with intersections of 8.0 m of 1.9 g/t Au and 6.0 m of 0.76 g/t Au this is expected to extend the footprint of mineralization and add additional lower grade incremental ounces to the high-grade zones in the Phase 1, Open Pit.
Outside the main area of the Phase 1, Open Pit, mineralization extends 1.7 km eastward to what previous workers called the Nip Zone. The combination of several factors gives significant exploration potential for expanding the pit:

  • Drillholes 2DQ06-17 and DQ06-18 which are 1.7 km from the main Phase 1, Open Pit area contain unsampled mineralization (see table 1) where higher grade gold exists in historical core. In addition to these incremental ounces, both these drill-holes have near surface, higher grade intercepts. 2DQ06-17 had an interval of 4.6 m of 2.56 g/t Au and 2DQ06-18 had an interval of 2.5 m of 51.9 g/t Au.
  • There is very limited drilling between the main Phase 1 Open Pit and the eastern portion of property (Nip Zone), which creates significant opportunity.
  • Multiple high-grade near surface hits with reasonable thickness in historic drillholes along this trend; such as 2DQ10-17 of 16.0 m of 3.2 g/t Au.

The open pit concept in Image 1B shows an ultimate pit with a depth extent of 400 meters; the footprint is 1.8 km by 0.8 km. Sampling unsampled historic core in 2024 will strategically focus on the area of the conceptual open pit design. This will allow us to determine the potential economics as we progress through the phases having the necessary assay results for resource evaluation and eventually for economic evaluations.

In General, mineralization is within and proximal to a fertile, gold endowed, quartz-feldspar porphyry intrusion (QFP), which appears to enrich the greenstone belt along this structural corridor that hosts the Duquesne West Gold Deposit.  Apophyses of this intrusion are more endowed and are close to the most highly replacement type mineralization. Competency contrasts between rock types within this mineralized corridor are good sites for additional mineralization.

High and low-grade mineralization are important in Open Pit Mining:

  1. Highest grade intercepts are within mafic (+/- ultramafic) breccia zone carapaces mantling the QFPs or highly deformed replacement style structural zones (in the mafic volcanics) that are highly strained and completely replaced by ankerite, sericite, and quartz.
  2. The broadest low-grade zones are located within the QFPs.
  3. Some lower-grade broad zones mantle higher-grade intercepts in the mafic volcanics.  This usually occurs at the margin between mafic volcanics and QFP (low grade in both units surrounding a high-grade intercept.)

This mineralizing system is significantly large in length, width and depth. These broad zones will aid in lowering strip ratios when Emperor has enough data to support a new resource estimate for both open pit and underground conceptual mining scenarios.

Samples were sent to SGS Laboratories in Lakefield, ON.

About the Duquesne West Gold Project

The Duquesne West Gold Property is located 32 km northwest of the city of Rouyn-Noranda and 10 km east of the town of Duparquet. The property lies within the historic Duparquet gold mining camp in the southern portion of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt in the Superior Province.

Under an Option Agreement, Emperor agreed to acquire a one hundred percent (100%) interest in a mineral claim package comprising 38 claims covering approximately 1,389 ha, located in the Duparquet Township of Quebec (the “Duquesne West Property”) from Duparquet Assets Ltd., a 50% owned subsidiary of Globex Mining Enterprises Inc. For further information on the Duquesne option please see Globex’s press release dated October 12, 2022.

The Property hosts a historical inferred mineral resource estimate of 727,000 ounces of gold at a grade of 5.42 g/t Au.1,2 The mineral resource estimate predates modern CIM guidelines and a Qualified Person on behalf of Emperor has not reviewed or verified the mineral resource estimate, therefore it is considered historical in nature and is reported solely to provide an indication of the magnitude of mineralization that could be present on the property. The gold system remains open for resource identification and expansion.

Reinterpretation of the existing geological model was created using Artificial Intelligence (A.I) and Machine Learning. This model shows the opportunity for additional discovery of ounces by revealing gold trends unknown to previous workers and the potential to expand the resource along significant gold-endowed structural zones.
Multiple scenarios exist to expand additional resources which include:

  1. Underground High-Grade Gold
  2. Open Pit Bulk Tonnage Gold
  3. Underground Bulk Tonnage Gold.

Watts, Griffis, and McOuat Consulting Geologists and Engineers, Oct 20, 2011, Technical Report and Mineral Resource Estimate Update for the Duquesne-Ottoman Property, Quebec, Canada for XMet Inc.

Power-Fardy and Breede, 2011. The Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) constructed in 2011 is considered historical in nature as it was constructed prior to the most recent Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (CIM) standards (2014) and guidelines (2019) for mineral resources. In addition, the economic factors used to demonstrate reasonable prospects of eventual economic extraction for the MRE have changed since 2011. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to consider the MRE as a current MRE. Emperor is not treating the historical MRE as a current mineral resource. The reader is cautioned not to treat it, or any part of it, as a current mineral resource.

Strathmore Finalizes Agate Permit for 200 Hole Drilling Program

Kelowna, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – April 10, 2024) – Strathmore Plus Uranium Corporation (TSX: SUU) (OTCQB: SUUFF) (“Strathmore” or “the Company“) is pleased to announce we are planning a 200-hole drill program in 2024 for Agate totaling 30,000 feet. The active drill permit has been amended and sent to state and federal regulators with exploration planned to begin in spring upon approval of proposed permit amendments.

Mr. Terrence Osier, VP Exploration of Strathmore said “During our Phase 1 drill program in 2023, we successfully discovered uranium roll front mineralization saturated with groundwater at shallow depths, from 80 to 150 feet deep, confirming the available historical data. The 2024 drill targets are planned this year to extend the discovered roll front into untested ground, in addition to other targets across the Project. One of these targets lies a mile south of the area we drilled in 2023, including historic intercepts of 4 feet of 0.35% eU3O8 from 85 to 89 feet (hole KM-23-119) and 7 feet of 0.062% eU3Ofrom 87 to 94 feet (hole KM-15-138). Strathmore intends to subcontract with the same drilling contractor and geophysical logger as was used in 2023- Single Water Services, Hawkins CBM Logging.”

Strathmore is very encouraged by UR-Energy’s announcement last month to begin construction of a satellite in-situ operation at their nearby Shirley Basin Project, located 6 miles from Agate. We look forward to advancing our working agreement with UR-Energy which should result in shorter lead times and lower costs for developing and operating an in-situ operation at Agate. In addition to exploring Agate, we plan to drill this summer at our Beaver Rim Project in the Gas Hills Uranium District.

About the Agate Property
The Agate property consists of 52 wholly owned lode mining claims covering 1,075 acres. The uranium mineralization is contained in classic Wyoming-type roll fronts within the Eocene Wind River Formation, an arkosic-rich sandstone. Historically, 55 million pounds of uranium were mined in Shirley Basin, including from open-pit, underground, and the first successful in-situ recovery operation in the USA during the 1960s. At the property, the uranium mineralization is shallow, from 15 to approximately 150 feet deep, much of which is below the water table and likely amenable to in-situ recovery.

The Project was previously explored by Kerr-McGee Corporation in the 1970s, which was the largest producer of uranium in the United States, including from their Shirley Basin deposits. Other uranium companies in the basin include Cameco, enCore Energy, UR Energy, and UEC, whose claims border the Agate property. Available Kerr-McGee historical drill results from the Wyoming Geological Survey include drill hole location maps and 330 geophysical logs which have been digitized and reinterpreted for entry into a modern, verifiable database. In 2023, Strathmore completed 100 drill holes on the Project, confirming the historical drill results. The exploratory drilling targeted the Lower “A” sand of the Eocene Wind River Formation, an arkosic-rich sandstone which is noted for its high porosity, permeability, and groundwater transmissivity.

About Strathmore Plus Uranium Corp.
Strathmore has three permitted uranium projects in Wyoming, including Agate, Beaver Rim, and Night Owl. The Agate and Beaver Rim properties contain uranium in typical Wyoming-type roll front deposits based on historical drilling data. The Night Owl property is a former producing surface mine that was in production in the early 1960s.

Genesis Signs LOI to Perform Wildfire Analysis in Harrison Hot Springs, BC

Kelowna, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – April 9, 2024) – Genesis AI Corp. (CSE: AIG) (OTCQB: AIGFF) (the “Company“)  is pleased to announce the signing of a Letter of Intent to provide wildfire mitigation risk assessments at Cogburn Creek, BC for a proposed 300 unit development and existing recreational operation.

The first phase of analysis will commence next week, using a mix of on site acquired data from drone based LiDAR and multispectral imaging and remotely acquired satellite data from AIRBUS (GEOINT – Airbus U.S. Space & Defense, Inc. (airbusus.com)). The expected outcome of the analysis is a detailed report that outlines the risk of wildfire, the probable path the wildfire will take, and the cost to perform “FireSmart” protection techniques to build resilience against wildfire. The project involves the collection of 900 hectares (2,224 acres) of high-resolution data that will be used as an ai training model for other projects.

Since the site is adjacent to a well-known, busy forestry recreation site (Cogburn Beach) maintained by the Province of British Columbia – Ministry of Forests, the analysis will be provided to demonstrate the cost of creating a non-combustable zone, thinning and pruning of existing forest, and removal of coarse woody debris on the forest floor.

CEO Devinder Randhawa says, “we are pleased to be moving ahead with our first wildfire project, using this as a template for other communities across North America. As a long-term resident of Kelowna, I have witnessed firsthand the devastation caused by the wildfires last year and in 2003. We are working to help communities quantify the cost of resilience and giving actionable intelligence to those affected.”

Project Director Brent Tolmie says, “we will be reaching out to every high-risk community across British Columbia to start with, demonstrating our unique service that not only provides analysis of the risk, but also quantifies the cost of treating areas. Our mid term plan is to work to crowd source risk information and develop a contractor portal where we not only define cost but also help communities get this work done.”

Silver Bullet Mines Announces Strategic Business Alliance and $1 Million Debenture Financing

Burlington, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – April 8, 2024) – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (OTCQB: SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce it is entering into a strategic business agreement (the “Agreement”) with Countryman Investments Limited of British Columbia, Canada (“Countryman”). The Agreement provides that Countryman will provide financial, business development and mining opportunities to the Company. Countryman is an existing SBMI shareholder.

Mr. Dave Richardson, a principal of Countryman, has agreed to join SBMI’s advisory board. Mr. Richardson has a long history in finance and business management, and will assist SBMI in implementing its business plan and expanding its business operations.

As the first phase in the implementation of the Agreement, SBMI intends to issue a convertible debenture (the “Debenture”) in an amount up to $1,000,000.00 to willing investors (“Investors”), issuable in tranches of $1,000.00 with each tranche having 10,000 detachable warrants. Each warrant has a term of three years and is exercisable at $0.12, $0.14, and $0.16 for years 1, 2, and 3 respectively following the issuance of the Debenture. The Debenture will have a three year term and interest will run at a rate of 12% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears during year one and quarterly in arrears during years two and three. Interest will be paid to Investors in cash or in common shares of the Company, at SBMI’s option.

Each Investor at any time can convert its portion of the Debenture, in whole or in part, into common shares of the Company. The conversion price shall be $0.08 during the first twelve months following issuance of the Debenture, $0.10 during the next twelve months of the term of the Debenture, and $0.12 during the final twelve months of the term of the Debenture (the “Conversion Price”).

SBMI can force conversion of the Debenture, in whole or in part, if SBMI’s closing price for its common shares exceeds $0.25 for a period of ten days. The Debenture can be prepaid by SBMI any time after twelve months from the issuance of the Debenture.

Countryman is a subscriber to the Debenture.

The Debenture is subject to regulatory and board approval.

The Agreement and the Debenture provide further financial stability to SBMI. They will enable the Company to complete work required by MSHA at the Buckeye Silver Mine in Arizona, to further work at the Washington Mine in Idaho this year, and to address other corporate matters.

In Arizona, the mill is MSHA approved and functioning properly. Mineralized material which had been stockpiled at the Buckeye Silver Mine is being transported to the mill and stockpiled material at the mill is being processed. The field team is carrying out the work required by MSHA at the Buckeye Silver Mine, which should take between one and three months to complete. Timber has been delivered to the Buckeye Mine Site for timbering. No new material can be extracted from the mine until the work is complete.

SBMI believes the Agreement and the Financing show that the value the Company has created is being recognized by significant stakeholders. It also gives increased depth to the company’s strategic vision for the future.

About Diamcor Mining Inc.

Diamcor Mining Inc. is a fully reporting publicly traded diamond mining company with a proven history, which is focused on building a growing supply of ethically sourced, non-conflict, natural rough diamonds to some of the world’s most reputable diamantaire’s and luxury retailers. The Company has a long-term strategic alliance with world famous Tiffany & Co, and currently, its primary focus is on the development of its Krone-Endora at Venetia Project which is co-located and directly related to De Beers’ flagship Venetia Diamond Mine in South Africa. The Venetia diamond mine is long recognized as one of the world’s top diamond-producing mines, and the deposits which occur on Company’s Krone-Endora Project have been identified as being the result of shift and subsequent erosion of an estimated 50M tonnes of material from the higher grounds of Venetia to the lower surrounding areas in the direction of Krone and Endora. The Company is also focused on the acquisition and development of additional mid-tier projects with near-term production capabilities to allow the Company to position itself as a growing supplier of ethically and responsibly mined non-conflict natural rough diamonds to reputable diamantaires and select luxury retailers. The Company has a strong commitment to junior mining, social responsibility, women in mining, supporting local communities, and to protecting the environment.

Canada, a subsidiary of world-famous New York based Tiffany & Co., to purchase up to 100% of the future production of rough diamonds from the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project at market prices. In conjunction with this first right of refusal, Tiffany & Co. Canada also provided the Company with financing in an effort to advance the Project as quickly as possible.
