LAS VEGAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Mission Mining Company (MISM) – Mission Mining announces that the Company has posted its recent National Instrument (‘NI’) 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate Report on the Company’s website at www.MissionMining.com. The NI 43-101 Report on the Company’s Gold Star Mine in western Nevada confirms a total Measured Mineral Resource* quantity of 17.2 million ounces of gold and 121 million ounces of silver located in the top 30 feet of surface material across the 960-acre Gold Star claims, totaling approximately $24.7 Billion in value at current gold and silver prices.
Previous historical exploration estimates of the property have indicated an overall average of 0.29 ounces of gold per ton of alluvium on site, and 2.04 ounces of silver per ton of alluvium on-site. The NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate Report by Zivkovic Geophysical Investigations, LLC, further estimates the total Measured and Inferred Mineral Resources at Gold Star Mine to be approximately 316.8 million ounces of gold and approximately 2.227 billion ounces of silver.
Mission Mining Company CEO, Carlton Wingett, stated, “The results of the NI 43-101 Report appear to validate the economic viability of recovering substantial quantities and concentrations of gold and silver ore at our Gold Star Mine. Based upon confirmation of approximately $24.7 Billion in total *Measured Mineral Resource value located near the surface, the Company will immediately pursue its business strategy to obtain the permits and funds necessary to place the Gold Star Mine into production as quickly as possible.”
*Measured Mineral Resource
“A “Measured Mineral Resource” is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape, and physical characteristics are so well established that they can be estimated with confidence sufficient to allow the appropriate application of technical and economic parameters, to support production planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. The estimate is based on detailed and reliable exploration, sampling and testing information gathered through appropriate techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill holes that are spaced closely enough to confirm both geological and grade continuity.”
