Brazil Minerals Inc.: Paracatu's Gold Project Update

29.06.2017  |  Marketwired
PASADENA, June 29, 2017 / Brazil Minerals, Inc. (OTC PINK: BMIX) (the "Company" or "Brazil Minerals") announced today that on June 17-18, 2017, its CEO and Rodrigo Mello, an experienced gold geologist, inspected by foot one of the eight mineral rights areas owned by Jupiter Gold Corporation ("Jupiter Gold"), a subsidiary of the Company. In Mr. Mello's opinion, this area has significant potential for alluvial gold. This mineral right was elevated to exploration permit following the publication of such authorization by the Brazilian government gazette on April 12, 2017.

The permit encompasses 773 acres and is situated downstream of the largest gold mine in Brazil, located in Paracatu, Minas Gerais, owned and operated by Kinross Gold. This open-sky mine has already produced 7 million ounces of gold, with 9 million ounces of gold remaining, according to public filings from that company; it produced 483,014 ounces of gold equivalents in 2016. During the Paracatu permit visit, precise locations of drill holes were demarcated by Mr. Mello for a preliminary analytical campaign planned to start in July 2017.

The exploration potential of the Paracatu permit stems from the presence of alluvial terraces on both margins of the creek, named "Corrego do Rico" (also known locally as "Corrego do Ouro" or Gold Creek), which crosses the permit area. This can be seen from the map included in this press release. The creek starts at Morro do Ouro ("Gold Hill"), the Kinross mine, and drains through the permit area and beyond. If confirmed, mineralization in the permit area would likely lend itself to utilization of a low-cost, high-efficiency modular plant for alluvial gold retrieval, a technology developed and already in use by the Company in one of its Jequitinhonha areas.

The lead project geologist, Rodrigo Mello, has over 30 years of experience and has worked for AngloAmerican, AngloGold, and Goldcorp. Mr. Mello's experience includes being the president of MPBA, the Brazilian mining company that developed the Tucano mine, which is, today, the second largest gold mine in Brazil. He has written, as Qualified Person, 19 technical reports, following the NI 43-101 code, mostly for gold projects.

In other news, the Company has retained a large and well-regarded regional accounting firm in Brazil to improve the timeliness of the reporting of its local subsidiaries. Brazil Minerals has also retained a highly experienced U.S. accountant to similarly improve the timeliness of the preparation of its consolidated statements. It is the Company's firm intention to file any future quarterly reports promptly when due.
