“We congratulate First Majestic on its exploration success and are extremely pleased with the progress being made on the Ermitaño project,” commented Paddy Nicol, President and CEO of Evrim.  “Ermitaño has the potential to add resources and mine life to the Santa Elena Mine, and increase its profitability.   Mineralization occurs in two steeply dipping, low sulphidation epithermal veins called Ermitaño and Ermitaño Splay.  The bulk of the 3.365 million tonne inferred resource containing of 3.99 g/t gold and 68 g/t silver disclosed by First Majestic on March 29, 2018 is hosted in the Ermitaño Splay structure.  According to First Majestic, the 2018 drill program was designed to increase the confidence level and size of the existing inferred resource and the 2019 drill program will investigate the feasibility of open-pit extraction at shallower depths. The progress with permitting is encouraging and we look forward to seeing the results from the planned 16,000 metres of drilling in 2019.”
