VANCOUVER, April 22, 2021 - Lucky Minerals Inc. (TSXV:LKY)(OTC PINK:LKMNF)(FRA:LKY) ("Lucky" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has joined the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative ("EITI"). The EITI is the global standard for the good governance of oil, gas and mineral resources throughout the world and it promotes the open and accountable management of a country's natural resources. It is aligned with the Open Government Partnership, to which Ecuador is a signatory and promotes the fight against corruption and promotes transparent, participatory, inclusive and accountable governance. To date, 55 countries have implemented the EITI Standard and Ecuador joined the initiative in October 2020.
Adherence to the EITI requires the Government of Ecuador to publicly disclose information and full transparency regarding all stages in resource extraction such as:
- Contracts & Licenses
- Production
- Revenue Collection & Allocation
- Social and Economic Spending.
Lucky's CEO, Mr. Francois Perron stated: "We are pleased to have been accepted as an EITI member and join an internationally recognized framework that aligns with our commitment to industry best practices in social and corporate responsibility, accountability, and performance excellence. We are committed and strongly believe that by implementing international standards of industry and by providing a transparent and responsible mining sector, will result in positive development and bring enhancements to areas where the projects are located."
About Lucky
Lucky is an exploration and development company targeting large-scale mineral systems in proven districts with the potential to host world class deposits. Lucky owns a 100% interest in the Fortuna Property.
The Fortuna Property is comprised of twelve contiguous royalty-free concessions and occupies 550 km2 (55,000 Ha, or 136,000 Acres). Fortuna is located in a highly prospective, yet underexplored, gold belt in southern Ecuador.
To date Lucky has identified 4 key target zones the most prospective of which is Wayka.
Wayka
Wayka is just east of the El Buitre Porphyry and west of the Emma Porphyry discovered last fall. Outcrop sampling to date confirms the presence of vuggy silica and alunite within rhyolite volcanics, typically found in high sulfidation epithermal systems. Out of the 12 samples received to date, a third of them are above 0.30 g/t gold and another third are anomalous (between 0.040 g/t gold and 0.30 g/t gold). Prospecting at Wayka continues with the goal of expanding the current footprint of 1.2 km by 0.5 km and to increase the understanding of the overall system.
