Research, News, and Market Data on EXK

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Endeavour Silver Corp. (TSX: EDR, NYSE: EXK) is pleased to report positive drill results from its ongoing drill program at its Parral project in the State of Chihuahua, Mexico. The high-grade silver results show the potential for resource expansion at depth and along strike in the El Verde and Sierra Plata Deep areas along the Veta Colorada structure. Since April of this year, the Company has drilled over 5,300 meters in 23 holes, totaling 8,100 meters year to date, with the aim to define and extend mineralized zones.

Considerable exploration potential remains along the 35 square kilometre land package and exploration will be on-going, with additional testing for new discoveries with surface mapping and sampling underway. This program will aid the Company’s goal to define a mineral resource large enough to support a preliminary economic assessment.

What Sandcastles and Rebuilding Landscapes After Mining Have in Common

This article was republished with permission from   The Conversation, a news site dedicated to sharing ideas from academic experts. It represents the research-based findings and thoughts of Joseph Scalia, Associate Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Colorado State University

Sandcastle Engineering – A Geotechnical Engineer Explains How Water, Air and Sand Create Solid Structures

If you want to understand why some sandcastles are tall and have intricate structures while others are nearly shapeless lumps of sand, it helps to have a background in geotechnical engineering.

As a geotechnical engineering educator myself, I use sandcastles in the classroom to explain how interactions of soil, water and air make it possible to rebuild landscapes after mining metals critical to the energy transition.

Building a sandcastle comes down to the right mix of those three ingredients. Sand provides the structure, but it’s water between the sand grains that provides the force – in this case, suction – that holds the sand together. And without the right amount of air the water would just push the sand grains apart.

Not Just Any Sand

Sand grains, according to the standards body ASTM International’s Unified Soil Classification System, are soil particles having a diameter of 0.003 inches (0.075 mm) to 0.187 inches (4.75 mm). Sands, by definition, have at least half their particles in that range. Silt or clay is soil with particles smaller than sand size. And soil with particles larger than sand size is gravel.

The size of particles, or grains, also determines the way sand looks and feels. The smallest sand grains have a texture almost like powdered sugar. The largest grains are more like the size of small dry lentils.

Most sand will work for building a sandcastle, but the best sand has two characteristics: grains of sand in several different sizes and grains with angular or rough edges. Variation in grain size allows smaller sand grains to fill the pockets, or pores, between the larger sand grains. The result is increased sand strength.

Sand grains that are more angular, with sharp corners on them, lock together better, making the sandcastle stronger. It’s the same reason a pile of angular wooden blocks will stay in a pile, but a pile of marbles will go everywhere.

This is also why, surprisingly, the best sand for sandcastles is not typically found on an island or a coastal beach. More angular grains of sand are usually found closer to mountains, their geologic source. These sand grains have not yet had their edges rounded off by wind and water. Professional sandcastle builders will go so far as to import river sand for their creations.

Finally, the closer together the sand grains are, the stronger the sand will be. Pressing wet sand together tightly, by compaction or tamping, squeezes sand grains together, decreasing the size of pores and increasing the effect water can have. Compaction also increases grain interlocking and, consequently, sand strength.

Suction is one of the forces holding this sand sculpture together (El Coleccionista de Instantes – Flickr)

Just Enough Water

The quantity of water in the sand controls the size and strength of the water bridges. Too little water equals little bridges between the sand grains. More water, and the size and number of bridges grows, increasing the suction holding the sand grains together. The result is perfect sandcastle sand.

Too much water, though, and the suction is too weak to hold the sand together.

A general rule of thumb for building great sandcastles is one part water for every eight parts dry sand. Under ideal conditions in a laboratory, though, with dense sand and zero evaporation, one part water for every one hundred parts dry sand can produce wonders. At a beach, sand with the right moisture level is near the high tide line when the tide is low.

Incidentally, salt from seawater can also be a boon for sandcastle stability. Capillary forces hold sand grains together initially, but capillary water will eventually evaporate, particularly on a windy day. When sea water dries up, salt is left behind. Since the seawater was forming bridges between the grains, the salt crystallizes at these points of contact. In this way, salt can keep a sandcastle standing long after the sand has dried. But be careful not to disturb the salt-bonded sand; it’s brittle and collapsible.

To build a strong sandcastle, compact sand and a little water as tightly as you can. I prefer to create a dense mound and then scoop and carve away to reveal the art within. You can also compact the sand into buckets, cups or other molds, and build from the ground up. Just be sure to get the sand dense, and place the mold on a compacted foundation. Hands make for both a great compaction and carving tool, but a shovel or a seashell will allow for more precision. Have fun, and don’t be afraid to get sandy!

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Prospecting and mapping yield results. The work by the company’s prospecting and mapping team is quickly identifying new VMS targets at Scarlet Ridge and Scarlet Valley which has advanced them from areas of interest into drilled targets that are now delivering significant sulfide-bearing mineralized intercepts. Mineralization and hydrothermal alteration are intense and widespread throughout areas drilled to date.

Maiden drilling commences at Scarlet Valley. Maiden drilling is underway at Scarlet Valley targeting extensive surface exposures of a VMS feeder zone including replacement-style sulfide mineralization. Hole SV22-1 was drilled to a depth of 618 meters to enable three-dimensional geologic modeling of favorable horizons for replacement-style mineralization along strike. A second drill has been deployed to help define the extent of this highly prospective area before the onset of winter weather. Management expects to drill nine holes at Scarlet Valley.

Allegiant Gold (AUXXF) – This is What Progress Looks Like


Friday, September 02, 2022

Allegiant owns 100% of 10 highly-prospective gold projects in the United States, seven of which are located in the mining-friendly jurisdiction of Nevada. Three of Allegiant’s projects are farmed-out, providing for cost reductions and cash-flow. Allegiant’s flagship, district-scale Eastside project hosts a large and expanding gold resource and is located in an area of excellent infrastructure. Preliminary metallurgical testing indicates that both oxide and sulphide gold mineralization at Eastside is amenable to heap leaching.

Mark Reichman, Senior Research Analyst, Natural Resources, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Core diamond drill program. In June, Allegiant Gold commenced a diamond core drilling program at Eastside in the high-grade zone discovered during the 2021 drill program within the original pit zone. The company is on the fifth hole which have averaged 530 meters to 550 meters depth. We think the company could complete up to 9 holes by the end of the year. Recall that in May 2021, results from Allegiant’s nine-hole drill program returned strong gold intercepts for Holes 239, 243, 244, and 245.

RC drilling results expected soon. Allegiant completed a 32-hole, 6,703-meter reverse circulation drill program in June to test new exploration targets at Eastside, including 21 holes drilled in the East Pediment and 11 holes drilled at the West Anomaly. The targets are to the east and west of the original pit zone and we expect the company to begin releasing available drill results from this program soon. We believe Allegiant may resume reverse circulation drilling in October to continue drilling additional targets based on assays….

Release – Eskay Mining’s Maiden Scarlet Valley Drilling Commences



Eskay Mining’s Maiden Scarlet Valley Drilling Commences

News and Market Data on Eskay Mining

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE
/ September 1, 2022 / Eskay Mining Corp. (“Eskay” or the
“Company”) (TSXV:ESK)(OTCQX:ESKYF)(Frankfurt:KN7) (WKN:A0YDPM) 
is pleased to announce maiden drilling at Scarlet Valley, a newly identified volcanogenic massive sulfide (“VMS”) center near Scarlet Ridge, part of its 100% controlled Consolidated Eskay project, British Columbia. As of this news release, the Company has completed 22,272 m of diamond core drilling, approximately 74% of the 30,000m planned to be completed in 2022. Drill production is currently on target to reach this aggressive goal with four drills fully operational. Currently two drills are conducting step-out drilling of the Upper Stockwork Zone at TV, and two drills are beginning to define the extent of the intensely mineralized Scarlet Valley target. Preparations are underway to drill the Tarn Lake target immediately following completion of drilling at Scarlet Valley.

“Our prospecting and mapping team’s work is rapidly identifying and characterizing new VMS targets at Scarlet Ridge and Scarlet Valley, key to quickly advancing these from areas of interest into drilled targets that are now delivering significant sulfide-bearing mineralized intercepts,” commented Dr. John DeDecker, Eskay Mining’s VP of Exploration. “Mineralization and hydrothermal alteration are extremely intense and widespread throughout areas drilled to date. Much more visible sulfide mineralization awaits us at Scarlet Knob and Tarn Lake. Demonstrating we hold a VMS district by making new discoveries is our goal this season. We are fortunate to have a top-notch team in place to execute a very aggressive, flexible exploration program. So far, we are meeting our objectives set for the 2022 program on schedule.”

Maiden drilling at Scarlet Valley is underway with drill hole SV22-1 intercepting 95 m of intense sulfide mineralization and hydrothermal alteration. Recent drilling at Scarlet Ridge has intercepted a zone of intense hydrothermal alteration and replacement-style sulfide mineralization. Drilling at Scarlet Ridge and Scarlet Valley as well as recent field investigations at Scarlet Knob-Tarn Lake (Figure 1) confirms the presence of replacement-style and stockwork VMS mineralization at all locations. Generally, sulfide mineralization is most intense proximal to east-west trending and vertically oriented basalt dikes suggesting that hydrothermal fluids exploited the same syn-volcanic structures as these dikes during their ascent to the seafloor/sub-seafloor environment.

A more detailed BLEG, clay-fraction stream sediment survey utilizing LiDAR topographic data collected in 2020 has been completed over the northeastern part of the Property, including Scarlet Valley, Scarlet Knob-Tarn Lake, Scarlet Ridge, and the northern flanks of the McTagg anticlinorium. These areas all have very strong BLEG anomalies identified during the 2020 program (Figure 1). This refined BLEG survey will allow further vectoring towards promising targets in this prolifically mineralized area. A similar detailed BLEG survey has also been completed over the 6 km trend of very strong BLEG anomalies in the vicinity of C10 and Vermillion to further refine targeting in that area.

Highlights from Scarlet
Valley

  • Maiden drilling is underway at Scarlet Valley (Figure 2) targeting extensive surface exposures of a VMS feeder zone (Figure 3) including replacement-style sulfide mineralization. Mineralization is hosted within rocks proximal to the contact between basalt dikes and surrounding andesite and volcaniclastic debris flows strongly suggesting the presence of syn-volcanic feeder structures. To date, 618 m have been drilled at Scarlet Valley. A second drill has recently been brought to Scarlet Valley to help define the extent of this highly prospective area before winter weather forces retreat to lower elevations.
  • Intercepts from drill hole SV22-1 display intense mineralization and hydrothermal alteration interpreted as stockwork zone as well as sub-seafloor replacement-style mineralization within volcaniclastic debris flow breccia (Figures 4-6). Sulfide mineralization is intense between downhole depths of 1.0-80.0 m, and 100.0-113.0 m.
  • Handheld XRF analyses of sulfide minerals in outcrop and drill core show consistently high concentrations of the Au pathfinder elements including Ag, As, Sb, Hg, and Zn. Handheld XRF cannot reliably measure Au concentrations.
  • Prospecting and mapping teams have identified mineralized rock similar to that intercepted in SV22-1, extending at least 300 m eastward from the collar of this hole (Figures 2 and 3). Additional drilling will test eastward and uphill continuations of this mineralization.
  • Geological mapping and drone imagery suggests the presence of laterally extensive horizons of replacement-style mineralization extending along strike from interpreted feeder zones. Preliminary investigations of drill core suggest that coarse-grained debris flows with a sandy matrix (Figure 6 bottom image) serve as preferential hosts for sub-seafloor replacement-style mineralization over debris flows muddy matrix material. These observations suggest that greater porosity of coarser-grained matrix material enhances permeability of this host rock thus making it more favorably hydrothermally altered and mineralized. Identification and definition of these coarse-matrix horizons is a key component of current mapping efforts at Scarlet Valley.
  • Hole SV22-1 was drilled to a depth of 618 m, under the valley floor, in order to enable three-dimensional geologic modeling of favorable horizons for replacement-style mineralization along strike. Sporadic mineralized intervals, up to 10% sulfide content, occur throughout SV22-1, suggesting favorable horizons for replacement-style mineralization continue to the vicinity of the valley floor to the west.

Highlights from Scarlet
Ridge

  • Maiden drilling at Scarlet Ridge has been completed consisting of five drill holes targeting a zone of sulfide stockwork mineralization and hydrothermal alteration exposed at the surface (Figure 7).
  • Drill holes SR22-1, -2, -3, and -4 intercepted a zone of intense hydrothermal alteration and pyrite mineralization hosted by autoclastic andesite breccias displaying perlitic texture (Figures 8 and 9). Perlite is a type of volcanic glass that forms by hydration of lava after cooling, and is characterized by concentric circular fractures in the rock. These fractures appear to have served as conduits for hydrothermal fluids, producing a distinct style of mineralization and hydrothermal alteration at Scarlet Ridge.
  • Handheld XRF indicates that sulfide mineralization in drill core is associated with elevated values of the Au pathfinder element As. Handheld XRF cannot reliably measure Au concentrations.
  • Two stages of sulfide mineralization are evident at Scarlet Ridge. An early-stage is VMS-related and is associated with clay and chlorite alteration followed by pervasive silicification and stockwork sulfide mineralization in perlitic andesite. This mineralization is associated with intense hydrothermal alteration and sulfide replacement of andesite and volcaniclastic debris flow breccias. Late-stage sulfide mineralization is associated with quartz-carbonate-pyrite veins crosscutting early-stage mineralization and is believed to be associated with late deformation and mountain-building events.

Highlights from Scarlet
Knob-Tarn Lake

  • Recent field investigations of an area north of Tarn Lake have confirmed the presence of VMS feeder-style mineralization hosted along the contacts between flow-banded rhyolite and cross-cutting east-west trending basalt dikes. Weathering of sulfide mineralization has generated intensely gossanous rock (Figure 10). It is interpreted that this mineralization connects with that found at nearby Scarlet Knob (Figure 11) situated due east on the other side of Bruce Glacier.
  • Semi-massive to massive sulfide occurs at surface (Figure 12). Handheld XRF analyses of sulfide mineralization shows high concentrations of the Au pathfinder elements Ag, As, and Sb. Handheld XRF cannot reliably measure Au concentrations.
  • Ag-sulfosalt minerals freibergite and pyrargyrite (Figure 13) are disseminated throughout massive sulfide shown in Figure 12 thus explaining elevated pathfinder element concentrations as determined by XRF.
  • Preparations are underway to drill at Tarn Lake during the 2022 season.

To date, Eskay Mining has completed approximately 22,272m of diamond core drilling, approximately 74% of the 30,000m planned for 2022. Thus far, drilling has occurred at Jeff North, Scarlet Ridge, TV and Scarlet Valley. At present, four drills are fully operational and drill production is on track to reach Eskay’s aggressive goal of 30,000 m.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Ahead of expectations. LiNiCo Corporation, of which Comstock owns 90%, was issued an operating permit by the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection. The permit authorizes LiNiCo to conduct lithium-ion battery (LIB) recycling and related operations at its 137,000 square foot battery metal recycling facility in the Tahoe Reno Industrial (TRI) Center in Nevada. Previously, management anticipated receipt of the operating permit during the fourth quarter of 2022 and still expects to complete filings for modified air quality permits in the third quarter with approval expected during the second quarter of 2023.

Battery grade lithium production expected in the third quarter 2023. The operating permit is based on the first phase of LiNiCo’s advanced new LIB recycling technologies, including crushing, separating, lithium extraction, and precursor cathode active products. LiNiCo is building a commercial scale pilot facility for installation at the TRI facility with commencement of operations expected in mid-2023. Lithium extraction is planned for the third quarter of 2023.

Release – Comstock’s LINICO Receives Main Operating Permit



Comstock’s LINICO Receives Main Operating Permit

Research, News, and Market Data on Comstock Mining

Nevada Facility Based on Advanced New
Lithium Extraction and Electrification Production Technologies

VIRGINIA CITY, NEVADA, AUGUST 31, 2022 – Comstock Inc. (NYSE: LODE) (“Comstock” and the “Company”) today announced the issuance by Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (“NDEP”) of a Written Determination of Hazardous Waste Recycling (“Operating Permit”) to Comstock’s 90% owned subsidiary, LINICO Corporation (“LiNiCo”), authorizing LiNiCo to conduct lithium-ion battery (“LIB”) recycling and related operations at its 137,000 square foot battery metal recycling facility located in the Tahoe Reno Industrial (“TRI”) Center in Storey County, Nevada (“TRI Facility”).

Commencement of Construction and Operations

“We are pleased to receive this critical permit ahead of expectation,” said Corrado De Gasperis, Comstock’s and LiNiCo’s Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The Operating Permit is based on the first phase of LiNiCo’s advanced new LIB recycling technologies, including crushing, separating, lithium extraction and precursor cathode active products, designed for leading yields at a fraction of the capital and operating cost of all known lithium extraction and recycling methods.”

LiNiCo is currently building a commercial scale pilot facility for installation at the TRI Facility, with an anticipated commissioning and onset of operations in mid-2023, with lithium extraction capacity planned for the third quarter of 2023.

“We will use our commercial scale pilot and early adopter client agreements to confirm all engineering and other requirements for the scale-up and full commercial deployment of our unique processes at the TRI Facility,” added De Gasperis. “Our goal is to commence construction and expand to scale at the TRI Facility immediately after our commercial pilot confirmation is complete. A key advantage of LiNiCo’s technologies is that they are highly scalable and capable of being right sized to match the evolving and dynamic needs of the rapidly growing lithium recycling industry.”

Electrification and continued advancements in energy storage are vitally necessary to reduce reliance on fossil fuels. According to International Energy Agency (“IEA”), there were more than 10 million electric vehicles (“EVs”) on the road in 2020, with new EV registrations increasing by 41% over 2019 and another 140% during the first quarter of 2021. Meeting the increased EV demand is estimated to require about five times more lithium carbonate equivalent (“LCE”) than the entire lithium mining industry produces today. Miners and manufacturers may eventually scale up to meet that demand, however, according to a January 2021 USGS mineral commodity summary, there are only about 
86 million tons of identified lithium reserves worldwide, and LIBs are typically landfilled after eight to ten years of use. In short, lithium demand is increasing globally, and a tsunami of lithium recycling demand is coming as new electrification products are deployed and age out of use.

De Gasperis concluded, “LiNiCo’s technologies are designed to meet the realities of that demand by enabling profitability at the earliest stages of production, thereby positioning LiNiCo to contribute billions to Comstock’s enterprise value based on existing valuations of comparable public companies. We are very pleased to receive our first major permit and we look forward to completing all remaining permitting requirements, including air quality, so we can commence recycling by mid-2023.”

About LiNiCo Corporation

LiNiCo Corporation (“LiNiCo”) holds the rights to a portfolio of innovative processes that efficiently crush and separate LIBs, extract lithium, nickel, cobalt, and graphite, and reuse the recovered metals to produce 99% pure cathode active precursor products. Collectively, these technologies give LiNiCo, and its existing 137,000 square foot battery metal recycling facility, differentiating competitive advantages, including the ability to process upwards of 100,000 tons of LIB and related feedstocks per year into an array of electrification products, including lithium, nickel, cobalt, graphite, and cathode materials.

Aurania Resources (AUIAF)
Gaining Momentum

Mark Reichman, Senior Research Analyst, Natural Resources, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Anaconda-style mapping underway. Geological mapping at Aurania’s porphyry copper-gold Tatasham target is nearing completion. The second phase of mapping at the company’s porphyry copper-gold Awacha target is expected to begin soon. The geological mapping program, under the guidance of Dr. Steve Garwin, Senior Geological Consultant, employs the Anaconda mapping method to define drill targets at Tatasham and Awacha. The Anaconda method owes its name to Anaconda Copper where it was developed in the 1960s and 1970s and was instrumental in the discovery and resource expansion of several porphyry copper-gold deposits. In our view, the comprehensive mapping program should support a productive drilling program and enhance the probability of successful outcomes.

Concession renewal in Peru. In June, Aurania renewed certain concessions in Peru. Those selected are part of blocks with higher geological potential and where the application process has been completed with most of the concessions granted. Management contemplates a modest amount of field work in the coming months to prepare an initial technical report to support further work and/or a possible corporate transaction. A technical report would be required in advance of any potential corporate transaction. As of June 30, the company’s land position in Peru consists of 130 concession applications and concession titles covering 128,700 hectares….
