18.04.2023  |  Accesswire

KELOWNA, April 18, 2023 - Diamcor Mining Inc. (TSXV:DMI) (OTCQB:DMIFF) (FRA:DC3A), ("Diamcor" or, the "Company") is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Ross McElroy as Special Advisor to the Company.

Mr. McElroy is a professional geologist with over 35 years of experience in the mining industry, holds a Bachelor's Degree in Science with a Specialization in Geology from the University of Alberta in 1987, and is a registered professional geologist in Saskatchewan, British Columbia and Nunavut/Northwest Territories. He is the winner of the 2014 PDAC Bill Dennis award for exploration success and the Northern Miner "Mining Person of the Year Award". Mr. McElroy's comprehensive experience includes working and managing many types of mineral projects from grass roots exploration to feasibility and production. He has held senior technical and executive positions with both major and mid-tier mining companies, which include BHP, Orano, and Cameco. He was a key member of the discovery team of the giant MacArthur River uranium deposit and played a key roll in the discoveries and development of the hugely successful Fission Uranium Corp., where he presently holds the role as President and CEO. Mr. McElroy has also had a successful career in the search, discovery, development and mining of other commodities including diamonds during the several years he spent as Senior Geologist for BHP's Ekati diamond mining operation in northern Canada.

"After many years of informal discussions on our Project and our long-term goals, I am very pleased to now have Mr. McElroy as a technical advisor to our Company," stated Mr. Dean Taylor, Diamcor's CEO. "I truly believe his input based on his past experiences and continued interest in the diamond sector, along with his proven ability to successfully advance various projects from discovery to production, will prove very beneficial to Diamcor."

"Diamcor's Krone-Endora at Venetia Project has always been a point of many interesting discussions, and the fact they are dealing with a significant low-cost displacement project from the prolific De Beers Venetia mine presents an attractive scenario," stated Mr. Ross McElroy. "I know that the entire management team's post-Covid focus is to execute its previous plans to grow the Project and expand their business. I look forward to providing them with my insight to enhance their ability to do so," added Mr. McElroy.

About Krone-Endora at Venetia

In February 2011, Diamcor acquired the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project from De Beers Consolidated Mines Limited, consisting of the prospecting rights over the farms Krone 104 and Endora 66, which represent a combined surface area of approximately 5,888 hectares directly adjacent to De Beers' flagship Venetia Diamond Mine in South Africa. On September 11, 2014, the Company announced that the South African Department of Mineral Resources had granted a Mining Right for the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project encompassing 657.71 hectares of the Project's total area of 5,888 hectares. The Company has also submitted an application for a mining right over the remaining areas of the Project. The deposits which occur on the properties of Krone and Endora have been identified as a higher-grade "Alluvial" basal deposit which is covered by a lower-grade upper "Eluvial" deposit. The deposits are proposed to be the result of the direct-shift (in respect to the "Eluvial" deposit) and erosion (in respect to the "Alluvial" deposit) of material from the higher grounds of the adjacent Venetia Kimberlite areas. The deposits on Krone-Endora occur in two layers with a maximum total depth of approximately 15.0 metres from surface to bedrock, allowing for a very low-cost mining operation to be employed with the potential for near-term diamond production from a known high-quality source. Krone-Endora also benefits from the significant development of infrastructure and services already in place due to its location directly adjacent to the Venetia Mine.
