Silver Bear Announces High-Grade Infill Channel Sampling Results for the Vertikalny Deposit Open Pit

27.11.2017  |  GlobeNewswire

TORONTO, Nov. 27, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Silver Bear Resources Plc (“Silver Bear” or the “Company”) (TSX:SBR) is pleased to announce the results of the recent infill channel sampling campaign at the Vertikalny deposit, as well as the beginning of 4,250 metre infill and metallurgical drilling programme within the same deposit. The channel sampling confirms high grade mineralisation within the initial phases of the Vertikalny Central open pit production. The channel samples were taken from the pre-stripped Vertikalny open pit area and were cut perpendicular to the strike of the mineralised vein. The width presented in Table 1 is equal to the true width of the mineralisation.

Silver Bear has retained Tetra Tech to update the mineral resources of the Vertikalny Central deposit and expects to be able to disclose the new mineral resource estimate in the near future. The results will be published in a National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) Technical Report to be filed on SEDAR at that time.

Table 1 Summary of the significant Results of the Vertikalny Infill Channel Sampling. Significant Intercepts defined as greater than 1,000 g/t over 1metre.

Graham Hill, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented: “The Vertikalny open pit grade control sampling, as we stock pile ore in anticipation of production start early in 2018, continues to deliver significant high-grade results. These impressive results further confirm high grade mineralisation within the initial phases of the Vertikalny open pit production. In conjunction with the very positive grade control results, there continues to be excellent progress with plant commissioning, construction, and mine development work as we move towards planned first production early in 2018. Further, the Company continues its discussions with several institutions on the beneficial restructuring of its capital structure. Additional information will be made available as this process advances.”

Mr. Hill continued: “In addition, the Company is confident that it will be in the position to release another updated mineral resource for Vertikalny in the near future. The new drilling programme is designed to provide increased knowledge of the deeper ores as well as metallurgical samples of these ores for detailed metallurgical testwork. This will provide us with the ability to update and improve the confidence level in the existing resource model as well as to provide the metallurgical knowledge to enable an extension to the life of the mine.”

Infill and Metallurgical Drilling Programme at Vertikalny Central

Silver Bear are pleased to announce the commencement of 4,250 metre infill and metallurgical drilling programme at the Vertikalny Central deposit. The programme has been designed to provide samples of fresh and mixed oxidation state material for additional metallurgical test work. In addition to being designed to collect metallurgical samples, the drill holes will be used to infill drill the mixed and sulphide zones of the Vertikalny Central deposit. The additional data will increase the knowledge of the short-range variability in the grade distribution within the vein, which may contribute to a revised Resource Classification for parts of the deposit.

Geological and Sampling Procedures

A quality assurance / quality control is part of the drilling programme on all of the deposits on the Mangazeisky Property. This programme includes chain of custody protocols as well as systematic submittals of standards, duplicates and blank samples into the flow of samples produced by the drilling. The 2017 Vertikalny trench samples were analysed in the SGS laboratory in Chita, Russia.

Qualified Person

Mr. Robert Davies, B.Sc., European Geologist (EurGeol) and Chartered Geologist (CGeol) has reviewed the proposed metallurgical and infill drilling campaign, and the 2017 trench results. Mr. Davies is Senior Resource Geologist at Tetra Tech and is a "Qualified Person" as such term is defined in NI 43-101. Mr. Davies has reviewed the technical and scientific information in this press release.
