Greg Johnson, CEO and Chairman of Metallic Minerals, commented: “With the completion of this financing, we are well -positioned to accelerate our on-going exploration and drilling program at the Keno Silver project in the Yukon, the largest program in company history, as well as to advance our La Plata project in Colorado. We received strong participation from new institutional investors, resulting in an upsized and oversubscribed financing, and were pleased to have Eric Sprott’s continued support with expanded ownership via his second investment into Metallic Minerals.”

“We now have solid confirmation a significant precious metal vein system underlies the Nanko target,” commented Dr. Quinton Hennigh, director and technical advisor to Irving Resources. “We are very please to see solid assys from multiple veins in holes 20OMI-002 and 20OMI-003, the first two holes drilled here. Interestingly, we see preservation of the entire profile of the hotspring system here much like at Omu Sinter. That means we have some near surface mineralization associated with the sinter cap as well as some high-grade veins below. To gain a better understanding of this robust mineralizing system, our plan is to drill several more holes here before the end of the Omui Mine Site program later this year.”

Russell Ball, Chief Executive Officer of Calibre stated: “Since completing the acquisition of Limon and Libertad just ten months ago, we have made a number of changes that position us to deliver significant value through the implementation of our ‘hub-and-spoke’ operating philosophy.  With the increased investment in near-mine exploration and infill drilling, the recent restart of operations at Jabali underground, receipt of the development permit for Pavon Norte and additional Limon ore available, we have a number of opportunities in front of us to utilize more of the surplus mill capacity at our Libertad Complex.”
