VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- (Business Wire)
Telson Mining Corporation (“Telson” or the “Company”) (TSX Venture –
TSN) is pleased to report significant assay results from underground
development on the El Creston Zone at its Tahuehueto Mine development
and construction Project in Durango State, Mexico.
Highlights
Tahuehueto underground development within the El Creston Zone (see
Figure 1), has returned significant grades over appreciable widths.
Channel sampling results received to date are presented below. (see Figure
2 & Figure
3) Additional channel sampling have been collected within the El
Creston Zone from mineralization exposed during underground development
and results will be disclosed when assay results are received by the
Company.

The above results are the weighted average of a series of samples,
generally no more that 1meter in width collected from a continuous
channel sample across the mineralized structure. For detailed individual

Gold Equivalent Calculation: - Metal prices used in US$ – Au $1,204, Ag
$14.20, Cu $2.80/lb, Pb $0.91/lb, Zn $1.09/lb
Formulas: 1st calculate a metal factor: for base metals (gold
price/31.1 g/Troy oz)/ (base metal price*2.2kg/lb*10) = Base Metal
Factor.
For Silver Metal Factor = gold price/silver price.
AuEq grade = Gold grade + (Ag grade/Ag Factor) + (Cu grade/Cu Factor) +
(Pb grade/ Pb Factor) + (Zn grade/Zn factor)
Antonio Berlanga, CEO, States “These El Creston samples continue to
demonstrate the quality of Tahuehueto mineralization and are, in the
case of these El Creston samples verifying our reserve base established
from previous drilling. In the case of the El Perdido underground
development which has extended past the limits of previous drilling,
channel sampling results, (as released February Feb 22, 2019) are
verifying the continuity of mineralization along the El Perdido
structure helping to verify managements assumption that the El Perdido
Zone connects with the Santiago Zone on the same structure and if
continuously mineralized will allow new exploration along approximately
800 meters of unexplored structure to hopefully add additional resources
to the project. Meanwhile underground development and mill construction
preparing the mine for our future on-site production continues as recent
photos available on our web site demonstrate.”
All the above samples were submitted to SGS De Mexico. S.A. de C.V.
independent laboratory located in Durango city Mexico. Assay methods
utilized were GE_FAA313 and GE_ICP14B for gold and silver respectively
with over-limits followed up with GO_FAG303, Multi-element GE_ICP14B for
lead and zinc with over-limits assayed with GO_ICP90Q. Additional detail
on assay methodology used can be found on SGS website at https://www.sgs.mx/en/mining
About Telson Mining Corporation
Telson Mining Corporation is a Canadian based mining company with two
Mexican gold, silver and base metal mining projects. Effective May 15,
2018 Telson declared commercial production at its 100% owned Campo
Morado Mine. Telson is currently producing zinc and lead concentrates
with gold, silver and copper as by-products.
Telson's 100% owned Tahuehueto Project, located in north-western Durango
State, Mexico is currently in construction development. Pre-production
commenced at Tahuehueto in August 2017, currently mining at a rate
averaging approximately 200 tonnes per day and shipping ore to a
third-party toll mill for processing. Management has a targeted timeline
at Tahuehueto to be producing with its own on-site mineral processing
plant, with a designed capacity of at least 1,000 tonnes per day, Q3-Q4
2019.
Metal concentrate deliveries and sales are well underway from both
projects.
