TriMetals Mining Inc. Restarts Resource Expansion Drilling at Gold Springs

07.05.2014  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - May 7, 2014) - TriMetals Mining Inc. (TSX:TMI)(TSX:TMI.B)(OTCQX:TMIAF)(OTCQX:TMIBF), a gold stock, is pleased to announce that it has contracted a drilling company to restart reverse circulation drilling at the Gold Springs gold-silver project in mining friendly Nevada/Utah, USA.

The intent of this drill program is to:

  • Expand the higher grade estimated resource at Grey Eagle;
  • Expand the higher grade estimated resource at Jumbo;
  • Select a third area for further resource drilling from the 18 areas of outcropping gold mineralization and the buried geophysical targets.

Ongoing activities will also include completing environmental and cultural surveys needed to fulfill future permitting requirements and avoid delays in ongoing drilling, exploration, and engineering activities. There will also be a focus on continuing more detailed metallurgical studies.

Details of the Gold Springs project and the recently filed Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) can be found on the Company's website at: www.trimetalsmining.com

Ralph Fitch, President and CEO stated "It is exciting to restart drilling particularly after the Company has announced and filed such a positive PEA. As I mentioned in the last press release the Company has drilled less than 10% of the prospective areas, so even though the present resource estimate provided the ounces for a strongly positive PEA, there is a significant opportunity to expand the estimated resource through drilling and further enhance both the project and the Company's common share-valuation. Drilling is expected to start by mid-May and we expect to complete the first 25 holes by the end of July."

Gold Springs PEA - Filed on SEDAR on May 1 and also posted on the Company website: www.trimetalsmining.com

The principal findings (TMI NR 14-09, dated May 1, 2014) were;

The PEA supports**:

  • a 9 year, 10,000 tpd "heap-leach" project;
  • a pre-tax NPV5%of US$162 million;
  • a pre-tax IRR of 57.5%;
  • a cash cost of US$614/AuEq*oz; and
  • total costs of US$749/AuEq*oz.

** $1,300/oz gold price and $21/oz silver price and assumes contractor mining. AuEq* was calculated using a gold/silver ratio of 57.14.

The Preliminary Economic Assessment on the Gold Springs Property, Utah/Nevada, USA dated April 30, 2014, authored by Lane and Associates and Kurt Katsura. Lane and Associates prepared the economic analysis in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (NI 43-101). Ms. Terre Lane, President of Lane and Associates is a "qualified person", as defined in NI 43-101, is "independent" of the Company, as defined in NI 43-101, and has reviewed and approved the technical information regarding the economic analysis in this release. The NI 43-101 compliant Technical Report supporting the PEA was filed on SEDAR on May 1, 2014.

Forward Looking Statements

The PEA was prepared to broadly quantify the Gold Springs project's capital and operating cost parameters and to provide guidance on the type and scale of future project engineering and development work that will be needed to ultimately define the project's likelihood of a positive feasibility determination and optimal production rate. It was not prepared to be used as a valuation of the project nor should it be considered to be a final feasibility study on which a commercial production decision could be made. The capital and operating cost estimates which were used have been developed only to an approximate order of magnitude based on generally understood capital cost to production level relationships, and although they are based on engineering studies, these are preliminary so the ultimate costs may vary widely from the amounts set out in the PEA. This could materially adversely impact the projected economics of the project. As is normal at this stage of a project, data in some areas was incomplete and estimates were developed based solely on the expertise of the Company's employees and consultants. At this stage of development for Gold Springs the criteria, methods and estimates are preliminary and result in a high level of subjective judgment being employed. There can be no assurance that the potential results contained in the PEA will be realized.

Certain statements contained herein constitute "forward-looking statements". These forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding estimated mineral resources and the potential for delineation of additional resources through further exploration at the Gold Springs, as well as statements regarding estimated net present values, internal rates of return, daily and annual production, costs, metal prices, and statements regarding the Company's development plan for Gold Springs. These forward- looking statements are based on current expectations and entail various risks and uncertainties. Actual results may materially differ from expectations if known and unknown risks or uncertainties affect our business or if our estimates or assumptions prove inaccurate. Factors that could cause results or events to differ materially from current expectations expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, include, but are not limited to, risks of the mineral exploration industry which may affect the advancement of the Gold Springs project, including possible variations in mineral resources, grade, metal prices, capital and operating costs, and the application of taxes; availability of sufficient financing to fund planned or further required work in a timely manner and on acceptable terms; timely receipt of required permits, availability of equipment and qualified personnel, failure of equipment or processes to operate as anticipated, changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; failure of equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; regulatory, environmental and other risks of the mining industry more fully described in the Company's Annual Information Form, which is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. The assumptions made in developing the forward-looking statements include: the accuracy of current resource estimates and the interpretation of drill, metallurgical testing and other exploration results; the timely receipt of required permits for the Gold Springs project; the continuing support for mining by local governments in Nevada and Utah; the availability of equipment and qualified personnel to advance the Gold Springs project; execution of the Company's existing plans and further exploration and development programs for Gold Springs, which may change due to changes in the views of the Company or if new information arises which makes it prudent to change such plans or programs; efficiency of the markets in factoring developments at the Gold Springs into its common share price and the assumptions and estimates disclosed in the Preliminary Economic Assessment on the Gold Springs Property, Utah/Nevada, USA dated April 30, 2014, authored by Lane and Associates and Kurt Katsura.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this press release. Except as required by law, TMI assumes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or any other reason. Unless otherwise indicated, forward-looking statements in this press release describe the Company's expectations as of May 7, 2014.

Readers are also cautioned that the PEA is preliminary in nature and includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves and there is no certainty that the results indicated in the PEA will be realized. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have economic viability.
