Emerita Resources – Key Metrics And Takeaways From The Updated IBW Mineral Resource Estimate And Update On Legal Proceedings At The Aznalcóllar Project

 

 

David Gower, CEO and Chairman of Emerita Resources (TSX.V: EMO) (OTCQB: EMOTF), joins me to outline the key metrics and takeaways from the updated Mineral Resource Estimate announced on March 11th on the wholly owned polymetallic Iberian West Project (IBW), located in southern Spain. We also get an update on the legal proceedings at the Aznalcóllar Project later in the conversation.

 

The Mineral Resource Estimate is based on 105,554 meters of drilling by the Company comprising 299 drill holes and is hosted in three volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits on the project; La Romanera (LR), La Infanta (LI), and the more recently delineated El Cura (EC) deposit (LR=169 holes totaling 70,344m; LI=91 holes totaling 20,975m; EC=39 holes totaling 14,235m). All three deposits remain open for further expansion by future drilling. The IBW project is reporting:

 

 

El Cura is still being drilled with 4 rigs, and is located in between La Infanta and La Romanera, but more closely resembles La Romanera metallurgically, returning higher gold values along with the base metals. David walks us through how each of these 3 deposit areas plays into the larger development strategy, where the earlier stage mining decline at La Romanera can now drift through El Cura on the way to the development of La Infanta, bringing in El Cura in as a future economic driver much earlier in the mining sequence.  We discuss all the derisking work going on in the background building toward the PFS this year, as well as an update on the environmental permits anticipated to come in over the next couple months.

 

We wrap up getting an update on where things are in the courts, with the sentencing portion of the legal proceedings have commenced on March 3rd, furthering the clarity on whether Emerita Resources will be awarded the high-grade polymetallic Aznalcóllar Project later this year, as the only other qualified bidder at the time.
