Finally here is great news from Paramount re their J/V with Tara at San Miguel.
Their results are so good that they are initiating a 43-101 report to derive a plan of further drilling to complete their picture of possible gold/silver reserves. The next step to providing a feasibility program to begin a revenue producing mine.
Exciting new assays revealed as well.All to Tara's benefit as well as Paramount's.
"Paramount Gold Commissions Independent Technical Report to Establish First Gold/Silver Resource at its San Miguel project, Mexico
Ticker Symbol: U:PGDP X:FWB:P6G
OTTAWA, Canada -- (Business Wire) --
Paramount Gold Mining Corp. (OTC:PGDP) (Frankfurt:P6G)(WKN:A0HGKQ)
is pleased to announce that full trading has commenced on the NASDAQ
OTC BB following a 30-day quiet period which expired November 27th.
¶ Paramount Gold is also pleased to announce that it has retained
the services of Dana Durgin of Delve Consultants to complete a
National Instrument 43-101 technical report on the San Miguel Project
near Temoris, Chihuahua, Mexico.
¶ The technical report will include a review of exploration work
carried out by Paramount during 2006 and a compilation of these
results. It will also include a preliminary estimate of the inferred
gold and silver resources developed to date. Thus far in 2006
Paramount has completed more than 7000 meters of diamond drilling in
approximately 45 core holes and 1100 meters of trenching. Drilling,
trenching and geologic mapping are ongoing. The technical report will
also review historical data and Paramount's mapping and surface
sampling within the project boundaries to evaluate further potential
drill targets as well as areas where follow up and in fill drilling
will be required to upgrade and expand silver and gold resources.
¶ Dana Durgin is a geologist with the requisite accreditation to
complete National Instrument 43-101 technical reports. Mr. Durgin has
been involved in mineral exploration and project development in the
US, Canada and Mexico for 35 years, including his position as Chief
Geologist, Mexico for Hecla Mining Company (HL: NYSE).
¶ Paramount CEO, Chris Crupi stated: "We are initiating the 43-101
technical report to quantify and evaluate our exploration program at
San Miguel and to gain a better understanding of how to direct our
future exploration work to unlock the great potential of this property
as efficiently and effectively as possible."
¶ At the San Miguel project, Paramount has identified strong silver
and gold mineralization along at least 6 kilometers of strike length,
however only 2.4 kilometers of this has been explored thus far through
an ongoing drill program. The project also includes the San Luis mine
where production averaged about 12 g/t gold, 350 g/t silver, and 10%
lead per tonne, before the mine closed in 1963 due to a water flood
from surface and low metal prices. Unknown quantities of high grade
ore remain in the mine. Its excellent potential has been confirmed by
a channel sample from a crosscut on the 300 level that assayed 85.2
g/t gold and 339 g/t silver across 15 meters and by drill hole SL-02
that intersected 4.0 meters of 35.5 g/t gold and 17.0 g/t silver below
this level.
¶ Paramount's ongoing drill program has intersected potentially
economic grades of gold, silver, lead and zinc mineralization in 30 of
the last 33 drill holes reported to date.
