Minsud Announces Updated Mineral Resource Estimate at the Chita Valley Project, San Juan, Argentina

TORONTO, ONTARIO – Minsud Resources Corp. (TSX-V: MSR) (“Minsud” or the “Company”) completed 47 HQ diamond drill holes totaling 7,410 metres (“m”) in 2011, 2014 and 2015 in the southern Chita Porphyry sector of the Chita Valley Project (see earlier press releases dated September 6, 2011, January 26, 2012, June 30, 2014, November 4. custodia samsung 2014 and December 10, 2015). Four historical holes completed in 1969, three holes from 1976 and one RC hole from 1996, most of which have been re-sampled and re-analyzed by Minsud, are added to the drilling database. fundas samsung galaxy note10 plus fundas iphone The total database utilized for mineral resource estimation includes 54 core holes and 1 reverse circulation hole totaling 8,458 m and 150 m, respectively for a combined total of 8,608 m (see table below). The drill holes tested a substantial zone of Cu-Au-Ag-Mo mineralized multi-stage vein systems and hydrothermal breccias.

In March 2015, Minsud retained P&E Mining Consultants Inc. (“P&E”) of Brampton, Ontario to review project data and prepare a Technical Report that complied with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 standards. The report included an initial Mineral Resource Estimate at a 0.3% Cu cut-off of 18.3 million tonnes averaging 0.44% Cu, 0.07 g/t Au, 2.4 g/t Ag and 0.019% Mo estimated under the CIM definition standards. All mineral resources were classified as Inferred category (See press release dated May 29, 2015 for details). The Technical Report dated June 19, 2015 is publically filed under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com.

In October 2015, Minsud again retained P&E to review the recently obtained project data and prepare an updated Technical Report that complies with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 standards. The report includes an updated Mineral Resource estimated under the CIM definition standards(3). In P&E’s opinion, the drilling, assaying and exploration work of the Chita Porphyry supporting this Mineral Resource Estimate are sufficient to indicate a reasonable potential for economic extraction. custodia cover samsung All Mineral Resources at a 0.3% Cu cut-off were classified as Inferred category based on the geological interpretation, semi-variogram performance and drill hole spacing. The Mineral Resource Estimate is tabulated below. The Technical Report will be publically filed under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com within 45 days of this news release.

(1) Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. fundas samsung galaxy s9 The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues. It is noted that no specific issues have been identified as yet.
(2) The quantity and grade of reported Inferred resources in this estimation are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define these Inferred resources as an Indicated or Measured mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in upgrading them to an Indicated or Measured mineral resource category.
(3) Mineral Resources were estimated utilizing Gemcom software and conventional block modeling within 3D wireframes defined on a 0.25% Cu cut-off, capped composites and inverse distance grade interpolation.
(4) The mineral resources in this report were estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM), CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions and Guidelines prepared by the CIM Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by the CIM Council.
(5) The 0.30% Cu resource cut-off grade was derived from the Nov 30/15 two year trailing average Cu price of US$3.02/lb, 80% process recovery, 95% smelter payable, US$0.10/lb refining charge, US$12/t process cost, and US$3/t G&A cost. An optimized pit shell was utilized for resource reporting that utilized a US$2/t mining cost and 45 degree pit slopes.

Mineral resources are sensitive to the selection of a reporting Cu cut-off grade. The Chita pit constrained mineral resource sensitivities of the Cu cut-off are demonstrated in the following table.

The mineralized sections include disseminated sulphides as well as A, B and D-type veins hosted by multiple stages of epizonal intrusions and hydrothermal breccias. fundas huawei mate 20 The complex mineralization styles are not conducive to the classical concepts of true thickness measurement, therefore vertical thickness determinations that would conform to conceptual pit design parameters are used instead. Lithological units (Map 1), alteration patterns (Map 2) and a typical cross section (Map 3) are shown in the following diagrams. All pertinent lithological, alteration and magnetic features extend beyond the current drilling pattern.

All Company core samples and check samples of historical drilling were submitted to either the Alex Stewart Argentina S.A. or the ALS Minerals Laboratories in Mendoza, Argentina for preparation and analysis. fundas huawei p30 lite Both are certified to ISO-9001 international standards. fundas samsung galaxy a5 All samples were analyzed for Au by fire assay/ AA finish, 50 or 30 g, plus a 33-element ICP scan. Minsud followed industry standard procedures for the work with a quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) program. Field duplicates, standards and blanks were included with all sample shipments to the principal laboratory. A representative selection of pulps have also been submitted to ISO-9001 certified referee laboratory, Alex Stewart (Assayers) Argentina SA in Mendoza for analysis. fundas huawei p8 lite 2017 Minsud’s company QP, Mr. fundas samsung galaxy s6 edge Howard Coates, P. fundas huawei p10 lite Geo., conducted site visits and detected no significant QA/QC issues during review of the data. fundas huawei p20 lite In addition P&E geologist and Independent QP, Mr. David Burga, P. Geo., conducted site visits and collected suites of field duplicate core samples for verification purposes. Again there were no significant issues.

A third international laboratory Bondar Clegg Co. coque iphone xr Ltd. merged with ALS Chemex the predecessor of ALS Minerals in December, 2001. The 1996 Bondar Clegg analytical data (for the single historical RC drill hole) is believed to be of the highest standards of the time, which predates the implementation of ISO/IEC 17025 standards. fundas samsung galaxy s6 A fourth lab, historically operated by DGFM a department of the Government of Argentina, also predates ISO/IEC 17025 standards. This laboratory analyzed the DGFM core drilling from seven holes from 1969 and 1976. A total of 305 pulp samples were acquired by the Company in 2007 and submitted to the Alex Stewart Argentina S.A. This work predates the involvement of the in-house QP in the project. fundas huawei p smart However, the QP has examined the remaining core and the 2007 analytical certificates without noting significant issues. The data is therefore considered to be adequate for current purposes of supporting an Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate.

Minsud is encouraged by the generally consistent elevated concentrations of Cu, Ag and Mo as well as the more localized anomalous Au values. With maximum elevation in the sector below 3,100 m ASL (meters above mean sea level) field conditions are benign on a year round basis and no active alpine glaciers are possible below approximately 4,100 m ASL.

Minsud plans to continue investigating the commercial possibilities for processing and recovering the key metals while at the same time conducting additional outline and definition drilling to further delimit the deposit and evaluate the grade distribution of the mineralization.

Mr. Howard Coates, P.Geo., Director of the Company and a geological consultant, is a Qualified Person as defined by Canadian National Instrument 43-101. fundas samsung galaxy s9 plus Mr. Eugene Puritch, P.Eng, President of P&E Mining Consultants Inc. and an Independent Qualified Person along with Mr. Coates have both reviewed and approved the contents of this news release.

Carlos Massa Minsud´s President & CEO, states: “We are very pleased with the results of the 2015 exploration program, highlighted by an approximately 70% increase of in-pit Inferred Mineral Resources. Management remains committed to evaluate various business and financing scenarios to continue moving the Chita Valley Project forward in a very challenging world.”
