27.11.2018  |  CNW

Grant Options and Provides an Update on the Tully Property Transaction

TORONTO, Nov. 27, 2018 /CNW/ - Havilah Mining Corp. ("Havilah" or the "Company" - TSXV: HMC) is pleased to announce the appointment of Ron Clayton to the Board of Directors. The appointment is subject to customary TSX Venture Exchange requirements.  The Company is also pleased to report that the re-processing of tailings material from the True North Mine has delivered great success. The processing of additional tailings material will continue until weather conditions change. Havilah has a very strong financial position with $7.7 million in cash and $14.1 million of working capital as at the third quarter of 2018.

Blair Schultz, Chairman & Interim President and CEO commented, "We are extremely pleased to welcome Ron Clayton to the Havilah team. Mr. Clayton brings a tremendous wealth of mining experience to the Company having most notably served as President and CEO of Tahoe Resources from 2016 to 2018 and COO from its 2010 inception to 2016.   Having Mr. Clayton join the team is a strong endorsement of the potential within the Rice Lake district.  We have accomplished a great deal over the past 5 months and believe that Mr. Clayton's addition to the board will augment our already strong team as we continue to provide our shareholders future success. With the success of our tailings processing project now substantially complete, we now turn our attention on testing our land package which has great potential for delivering high-grade exploration success and provides significant optionality for future feed to the mill at True North."

Ron Clayton, Director commented, "I have tremendous respect for the Board at Havilah and I look forward to working alongside them. Having spent time on the property and also based on my prior knowledge of the asset, I believe there is significant potential in the existing land holdings together with the high-quality infrastructure already in place.  The previous owner's consolidation of the land package within this historic and robust district is extremely beneficial to us.  Much of that property has had significant amount of early exploration work already completed, which simply requires targeted follow-up, that we have already begun to carry out.  I believe we can leverage our cumulative experience and our strong balance sheet to expand our knowledge of the area and identify multiple sources of ore."
