Stroud files NI 43-101 report for Santo Domingo

STROUD RESOURCES ANNOUNCES 71% INCREASE IN MEASURED AND INDICATED RESOURCES AT SANTO DOMINGO, MEXICO

Stroud Resources Ltd. has filed an updated, independent National Instrument 43-101 technical report on its Santo Domingo project, located in the western silver-gold belt of the Sierra Madre Mountains of Mexico. The property is located 90 kilometres from Guadalajara in the Jalisco province about 150 km southwest of First Majestic's San Silver mine and 150 km southeast of Endeavour Silver's Terronera development project. The report was prepared by Dr. Derek McBride, PEng, using the exploration results from 16 diamond drill holes completed in 2011 to 2012, primarily on the La Raya and Guadalupe zones. It shows a significant increase in the measured and indicated and inferred mineral resource estimates from numbers previously reported in a 2010 technical report (press release of Jan. 27, 2010).

Highlights:

  • Measured and indicated resources increased to 25.74 million silver equivalent ounces from 15.05 million.
  • Inferred resources increased to 13.39 million silver equivalent ounces from 10.68 million.
  • The La Raya vein indicates a mineralized zone, 35 metres wide by 300 metres deep and over 700 metres along strike.
  • The Guadalupe vein is typically 15 to 30 metres wide.
  • Five additional veins have been identified for future exploration, deeper into the hillside.

"Santo Domingo was first discovered in the 16th century, and although there have been several periods of small-scale mining over the last 400 years, little modern exploration was ever carried out on the property," said Mirsad Jakubovic, chief executive officer of Stroud. "We have now defined a significant silver deposit and believe we have merely scratched the surface. The strike length of the La Raya and Guadalupe zones have been drilled to a depth of approximately 150 metres, leaving considerable room to expand by drilling. With the technical sophistication available today, the opportunity exists to more sensitively and expertly extract these resources with the least amount of disruption and cost. The site's proximity to Guadalajara provides excellent access to roads and facilities, with power and water supply on site."

The report confirms measured and indicated and inferred resources as set out in the attached table.

Cut-off grade was 45 grams per tonne silver equivalent over a three-metre true
width and a gold to silver ratio of 72 to 1.
Continuity of mineralization was established by drilling on 50-metre centres 
and using a specific gravity of 2.65.

The report has an effective date of Nov. 17, 2017, meets the guidelines and form as set out in National Instrument 43-101 (Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects) and CIM (Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum) standards, and was prepared for Stroud by Derek McBride Geological and Management Services Ltd., a qualified person as defined under the NI 43-101 reporting requirements. The mineral resource estimation is contained in a report entitled "NI 43-101 technical report on the Santo Domingo silver-gold project, Hostotipaquillo area, Jalisco state, Mexico," dated Nov. 17, 2017, which may be found under Stroud's continuous disclosure filings at SEDAR.

Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that all or any part of the estimated mineral resources will be converted into mineral reserves. The estimate may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing or other relevant issues. The mineral resources were estimated in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum standards on mineral resources and reserves, definitions, and guidelines prepared by the standards committee on reserve definitions and adopted by the CIM council on Nov. 27, 2010.
