SILVER STORM CONDUCTS FIRST POUR OF SILVER-GOLD DORE AT LA PARRILLA
Silver Storm Mining Ltd. has seen the first silver-gold dore pour at the company's 100-per-cent-owned La Parrilla silver mine complex located in Durango state, Mexico.
Greg McKenzie, president and chief executive officer, stated: "We are excited to reach this significant milestone less than three years after closing the acquisition of La Parrilla. I extend my congratulations to the Silver Storm team for delivering first silver safely and successfully. With the first pour completed, we have kicked off the restart of operations at La Parrilla, starting a new chapter for the company and its stakeholders."
The first pour was completed as part of the commissioning process of the oxide processing circuit at La Parrilla. The company now expects to be able to pour silver-gold dore on a continuing basis. Silver Storm commenced the commissioning of the oxide processing circuit in early June utilizing mineralized material from the open-pit oxide stockpile. The oxide circuit will continue to process the material from the oxide stockpile until underground development in the San Marcos area of the mine starts to provide access to run-of-mine mineralized oxide material. Commissioning of the 1,250-tonne-per-day sulphide processing circuit is expected to commence in June, 2026, with an estimated ramp-up period of one month.
