United Silver Corp. Retains SRK Consulting to Complete New Preliminary Economic Assessment and Updated Resource Estimate

15.04.2013  |  Business Wire
VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- (BUSINESS WIRE) -- United Silver Corp. (“United Silver Corp.”, the “Company”, or “USC”: TSX; USC: OTC; USCZF: Frankfurt: UM8) announces that it has retained SRK Consulting Engineers and Scientists (“SRK”) to review, validate and revise as required an internally generated Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) and an updated resource estimate to ensure they meet the standards required for inclusion in an updated NI 43-101 compliant Technical Report and PEA. The revised mine plan, (“PEA”) and updated resource estimate for the Crescent Mine will be completed shortly. The mine is located near the town of Kellogg, in the prolific Coeur d’Alene Silver Belt, in the state of Idaho. Historically, the Crescent Mine, the adjoining Sunshine mine to the east and the Bunker Hill mine to the west, have combined to produce more than 575 million ounces of silver. The Crescent mine remains largely under explored on both the Alhambra and South veins to depths exceeding 1,830 meters (6,000 feet) from the surface and along a strike length of 2,500 meters (8,200 feet).

Upon beginning work for the Company in early February 2013, Michael P. Gross, M.S., P.Geo., the new Chief Operating Officer, immediately initiated development of an internal Preliminary Economic Assessment and updated resource estimate. Mr. Gross, in conjunction with Mr. R. Michael Robb, P.E. and Mr. Terrence Byberg, both experienced underground miners and mine operators, has developed a mine plan and budget for capital expenditures that he and his team believe will bring the mine to commercial production.. Additionally, Mr. Gross retained Ms. Hazel Mullin, M.S., an associate of Mr. Lawrence A. Dick PhD, P.Geo. who is the Qualified Person for the Company, to complete an updated resource estimate.

SRK will complete the NI 43-101 Technical Report timely for posting on SEDAR as required by Canadian Securities Regulators. The work for the SRK PEA and updated resource estimate is expected to be completed within 5 weeks of the date that USC delivers the completed in-house documentation to SRK in approximately two weeks. The completed Technical Report will be posted to SEDAR within 45 days of announcing the results of the PEA and updated resource estimate.

“We are very encouraged by the results of our internal assessment of what is required to bring the Crescent Mine to commercial production.” said Graham Clark, CEO of USC, “If SRK’s PEA confirms our assessment, we will have a very clear plan and roadmap to bring the mine into production.”
