Silver Bullet Mines Corp. to Commence Mining at its Wholly-Owned Washington Mine in Idaho

Burlington, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – March 15, 2022) – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announces it has made a production decision for its Washington Mine on patented land in Idaho. Upon review of the historical records, SBMI’s 2021 and 2022 field programs, the proposed budget, the success of the financing announced February 9 of this year, the existing infrastructure and the current data including SBMI’s blended bulk sample that yielded 55.5 ounces silver per tonne, the board has decided to initiate mining at the Washington Mine.

It is the Company’s plan to widen the existing adit, make the area safe for work, proceed to the historical workings and extract mineralized material. To that end SBMI is in discussions with an experienced contract miner to commence such work as soon as reasonably possible, subject to a due diligence site visit.

This part of the Washington Mine was last mined in the 1980’s when a bulk sample was removed by the then-owner and processed by Hecla Mining. That bulk sample resulted in a grade of 44 ounces silver per tonne and 10 grams of gold per tonne. (All historical references pre-date NI43-101 and the work involved was not carried out by SBMI. SBMI does not know what processes were followed for any such work or whether the work was carried out under the supervision of a Qualified Person. Such historical references cannot be relied upon until further work is carried out.)

The Washington Mine overall first saw production in the late 1800’s with an average gold grade of one ounce per ton. It again produced gold in the 1930’s during which time the then-owner lacked the process capability needed to produce silver, so a decision was then made to block out the silver mineralization with the intention of returning at a future date to extract it. To the best of SBMI’s knowledge, the blocked-out volume remains in situ. A historical report indicates the blocked-out volume contains an estimated 3 million ounces of silver with a grade of 30 to 90 ounces per ton and 15,000 ounces of gold at 0.3 ounces per ton. (Source, “Geological Evaluation”, Roger G. Stoker, P.G. and Ryne C. Stoker, Student Geologist, Energy Services Inc., December, 1981.)

The historical records and existing infrastructure suggest SBMI should be able to in the short-term extract a bulk sample of 1,500 to 3,000 tonnes of mineralized material from that blocked-out volume. After a brief pause to assess the results of the bulk sample and to inspect more of the existing infrastructure, the Company would continue extracting material from this part of the mine and also develop a ramp to the high-grade parallel structure identified in last year’s field program. (see press release of December 15, 2021).

The Company is waiting on metallurgical testing results from Montana Technical University to enable SBMI to create an appropriate flowsheet and recovery parameters, following which the Company intends to reach terms with a third-party mill in Idaho. The resulting processed silver and other materials will be sold to local smelters at spot prices. The Company is also in discussions with two commodity brokers interested in buying the expected concentrate. There is a risk the Company will not be able to reach agreement with any of these counter-parties, including the contract miner.

In anticipation of start-up the Company has received its mine ID number and is completing the MSHA application. Other permitting is limited as the Washington Mine is on patented land.

“These are very exciting times for Silver Bullet Mines as we rapidly approach commencement of mining operations at the Buckeye Mine in Arizona and move simultaneously to mining in Idaho,” said A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO. “Revenue generated from both mines can fund exploration programs to attack the past-producing McMorris Mine, increase production capacity at our 100%-owned modular mill, and explore the potential for a copper porphyry at our Black Diamond Property.”

The financing announced February 9, 2022 has closed two tranches totalling $1,574,075. There will be at least one more closing before March 26, 2022. This successful financing means SBMI is well funded to finance the opening of both the Buckeye and Washington Mines.

Provenance Gold Updates Progress and Provides Further Data on Its Eldorado Gold Project in Eastern Oregon

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – March 14, 2022) – Provenance Gold Corp. (CSE: PAU) (OTCQB: PVGDF) (the “Company” or “Provenance“) is pleased to announce that it has acquired a large volume of historic data on the Eldorado property that it is digitizing. As a result, the Company has a full historic drill hole data base which it has used to generate cross sections, long sections and horizontal plan sections using the property’s historic 242 drill holes. The Company is very pleased by the information gained from these studies.

Based on the current evaluation work, Provenance has determined that the gold mineralization is locally high-grade within a large volume of lower grade values and is open in all directions and vertically. Additionally, within the larger expanse of the project, numerous undrilled areas could expand the mineralization considerably. Provenance’s review of the cross sections shows that much of the historic drilling was shallow, and stopped above, and even within the mineralization. The following figure shows the distribution of the Eldorado drill holes and the location of the following cross section.

The following assay summary table is a 7-hole selection of some of the holes along the cross section. Data is presented in both meters / grams and feet / ounces. The cutoff grade selected was 0.1 g/t and 0.1 ppm. Some selected highlights include R-136 with 134.1 meters of 2.09 g Au, R-001 with 71.6 meters of 0.86 g Au, R96-C1 with sequential intervals of 91.44 meters of 1.4 g Au and 151 meters of 1.2 g Au. Some of the highest grades found in the data include 40.4 g Au in R-90 and 44.19 g Au in R-136 (see table). Note the thicknesses and the longer intervals are centered by much higher grades than the average.

The Eldorado gold mineralization is on BLM land that Provenance controls, but unlike Nevada, Oregon exploration drilling must be permitted by both the BLM and DOGAMI, Oregon’s department of geology. The Company expects to obtain both permits to begin confirmation drilling within the next several months.

The staged work program includes completing compilations from the various historic studies, drilling 20 confirmation holes over a wide area of the property, and planning and permitting a second larger round of drilling into obvious targets and new areas.

As Steven Craig, project manager said, “Holes like R-90 with 67 meters of plus three grams starting at surface are rare. I look forward to starting the confirmation drilling.”

Steven Craig, P. Geo., a qualified person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical contents of this News Release.

Going to Get Bad, Really Bad – David Morgan

Original Source: https://usawatchdog.com/going-to-get-bad-really-bad-david-morgan/

By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com (Saturday Night Post)

Last year about this time, precious metals expert and financial writer David Morgan was warning about massive money printing and the so-called “everything bubble” popping.  Inflation is the pin, and it found the bloated debt bubble.  Now get ready for some pain as Morgan explains, “It’s going to get bad, and I mean really bad.  There is already mass starvation at the lower end of the economic scale in third world countries. . . . Prices are going to be untenable for many people, especially those in the middle class. When you get gasoline going up to the $5, $6, $7 range and you’ve got food going up to the level it’s gone up to and continues to go up to, it’s going to be bad.  I am focusing on real stuff, not the bond market or what the price of gold is going to do.  I am talking about day-to-day living. . . . When gasoline goes from $3.50 per gallon to $5.50 per gallon and you start doing the math on how much it takes to fill up your car and drive it back and forth to work every day, all of a sudden you’ve got diminishing returns.  Then factor in what your heating bills and what your grocery bill is going to be.  So, there is going to be a lot of people at the margin, and the margin keeps moving up.  It’s a few percent of the population.  Then it’s 10% and then 20% and so on.  When food gets to be 50% of your budget, then there are food riots.  That’s the trend . . . and I think we will get there. . . . We know the ‘Arab Spring’ was not about politics.  It was about food.  We are going to see ‘Arab Springs’ spring up all over the place because of food costs and availability.  You can have a lot of money and not be able to get food too.”

It’s not just physical assets that are going to be affected, but the financial system too.  Morgan says, “What is all this going to do to the financial system?  It’s breaking, but it’s been broken for a long time.  We just have not seen the end result—yet.  I don’t think the bankers really thought this through all the way.  If you look at the way Russia is, they are a hardened people.  They are used to suffering.  They are used to standing in line for bread and potatoes.  They are not like other nations. . . . This is going to get uglier and uglier and harder and harder.  I do not think this is going to get resolved anytime soon.”

What does Morgan see coming?  Morgan says, “There are going to be cyber-attacks, and they are going on right now.  There is going to be communication breakdown.  Number three, there are going to be consequences that nobody can see at this point.  And to reiterate, it’s a mess, and it’s going to get messier, and it’s not going to be resolved quickly.”

Morgan see’s gold at $2,300 by the end of this year and silver near $40 per ounce.  In 2023, all bets are off, and Morgan contends you could see both metals way higher than they are now.  Morgan says, “Silver will outperform gold in the long run on a percentage basis. . . . Silver will outperform gold four to one.”  Morgan also says, “Demand for the metals from pensions funds and other big money managers is a “trend that is just getting started.”

Morgan also talks about the importance of cash and what the signal will be to get out of the U.S. dollar.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Second Tranche of Successful Financing

Burlington, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – March 11, 2022) – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announces it today has closed on $810,075 in its previously announced financing, bringing the total raised to date to $1,574,075.

This tranche represents 2,205,188 Units, with each Unit priced at $0.40 (forty cents). Each Unit consists of one common share and one full 60-cent (sixty cent) warrant with a 24-month term, with each such warrant being exercisable into a common share (the “Financing”). There is no acceleration clause on such warrants.

This is the second tranche of Units on which SBMI has closed. The first tranche of $764,000 was announced February 18, 2022. SBMI has further subscription agreements in hand which means SBMI will close on at least one further tranche before March 26, 2022.

These proceeds from the Financing will be used to complete the process of putting the Buckeye Silver Mine into pilot production in March, 2022, to advance work at the past-producing silver and gold Washington Mine in Idaho, and for working capital.

“This financing is a success for the company and the shareholders,” said A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO. “Our original minimum target was $500,000 and the investors blew that number away. The funds raised in this financing have been budgeted to be more than enough to put the Buckeye Mine into production, to complete our mill, and to advance the Washington Mine to where it can be ready for mineral extraction.”

Referral fees may be paid to arm’s length persons in connection with the issuance of the Units. Other than the subscription agreement, there will be no further offering material provided to Existing Security Holders or others related to Financing. The subscription agreement is available at the Company’s website https://www.silverbulletmines.com/technical-corporatedocuments.
