Following a positive feasibility study, Corredor can earn an additional 1% upon its decision to fund the capital cost of the Project and further 29% interest by funding 100% of the estimated capital costs to achieve commercial production. Cacos emphasized the strategic importance of this agreement with its recent PEA for the Amarillo Grande Project confirming the Ivana deposit as a potential candidate for low-cost uranium production.

Brunswick Exploration sees Positive Results from Mirage Drilling and Plans for Summer Exploration

Brunswick Exploration Inc

Brunswick Exploration CEO Killian Charles joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share the final results from its Mirage winter drilling campaign. The Mirage Project is located in the Eeyou Istchee-James Bay region of Quebec, approximately 40 kilometers south of the Trans-Taiga Road. The winter drill campaign focused on the Central Zone and has continued to intersect wide and well-mineralized intervals within the MR-6 dyke. Charles told Proactive the drilling saw a new interval at the MR-6 dyke with 1.64% Li2O over 69.3 meters in drill hole MR-24-61 and 1.17% Li2O over 28.3 meters in drill hole MR-24-50 both starting from surface. The MR-9 dyke is located approximately 600 meters northeast of MR-6, with 1.07% Li2O over 14.4 meters in drill hole MR-24-45 and 2.00% Li2O over 4 meters in drill hole MR-24-51, now drill traced over 400 meters. Further evidence of significant dyke stacking located 350 meters southeast of MR-6 where drill hole MR-24-59 intersected several mineralized pegmatite dykes all of which remain open in every direction. The impressive lithium grades and widths intersected at both MR-6 and MR-9 dykes highlight the potential of the Mirage project to host significant lithium resources. The continuity of mineralization from surface and the extensive drilling data suggest a robust system that warrants further exploration. The company is now preparing to announce its 2024 summer exploration program in the coming weeks, which will include extensive drilling and sampling activities not only at Mirage but also in northern Quebec, Labrador, and Greenland. This extensive exploration program aims to expand the known mineralized zones, test new targets, and ultimately enhance the resource base of Brunswick Exploration.

FPX Nickel to Expand Mich Property Exploration with 350% Claim Increase and Summer Surface Program

FPX Nickel Corp

FPX Nickel CEO Martin Turenne joined Steve Darling from Proactive to FPX Nickel CEO Martin Turenne joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the re-initiation of exploration activities at the Company's Mich property in the Yukon. The Company has recently expanded its claims at Mich by over 350% and will conduct a wide-ranging surface sampling program over the summer of 2024 with the goal of advancing Mich to drill-ready status. Turenne told Proactive that the company is looking to conduct geological mapping and surface sampling, aiming to expand the footprint of known awaruite nickel mineralization, from where previous sampling and drilling has generated positive results. FPX Nickel has been awarded a non-repayable grant under the Yukon Mineral Exploration Program, which will be used to offset program costs. The expanded exploration program is designed to leverage historical data and new findings to refine FPX's geological understanding of the Mich property. This will involve detailed geological mapping and systematic surface sampling to identify new zones of nickel mineralization. By combining historical data with new results from the 2024 fieldwork, FPX aims to develop a comprehensive geological model that will inform the planning of a future drill program. FPX Nickel's recent expansion of its claim area at Mich reflects the Company's commitment to unlocking the full potential of this promising nickel project. The significant increase in claim size provides a larger exploration area and enhances the likelihood of discovering additional nickel-rich zones. The surface sampling program scheduled for summer 2024 will be crucial in identifying these zones and advancing the project to the next stage of development. The non-repayable grant from the Yukon Mineral Exploration Program is a testament to the project's potential and the support of the local government for mineral exploration activities. This funding will help FPX Nickel manage exploration costs and focus on maximizing the value of the Mich property. As the company prepares for the 2024 exploration season, Turenne emphasized the importance of integrating new data with historical work to refine their exploration strategy. The synthesis of these datasets will enable FPX Nickel to target high-potential areas more effectively and plan a robust drilling program that aims to confirm and expand the known nickel resources at Mich.

Santacruz Silver Mining Executive Chairman Arturo Prestamo Provides Production Update

Santacruz Silver Mining

Santacruz Silver Mining Executive Chairman and Interim CEO Arturo Prestamo joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide a production update on the company's various mining operations. The company processed 470,749 tonnes of material and produced 4,478,122 silver equivalent ounces, including 1,581,949 ounces of silver, 22,847 tonnes of zinc, 2,953 tonnes of lead, and 256 tonnes of copper. Prestamo told Proactive that Santacruz has successfully restructured its debt with Glencore, resulting in enhanced financial flexibility and a more robust balance sheet. This strategic move has bolstered the company’s financial position and should allow for better optimization of Santacruz’s core business activities and the pursuit of long-term growth. During the first quarter, production at its Bolivian mines faced several disruptions due to various events, including national holidays and the national population census. Caballo Blanco experienced a challenging quarter due to additional production disruptions caused by safety training and mining in areas with lower silver grades. However, the preparation of new areas is progressing well, thanks to the integration ramp. Caballo Blanco is expected to mine areas with higher silver grades in the coming months, and together with fewer operational disruptions, the company expects a better performance. Préstamo also highlighted the advantageous metal pricing, especially for silver and zinc, and expressed confidence in the company's ability to generate strong cash flows.

The result is a complex, zesty blend with a tart citrus burst accompanying every sip. “Our first flavor, BLOOD ORANGE, was designed to be sweet and refreshing, while YUZU is for those pallets who prefer a sharp crisp taste that grabs their attention,” says Lliguin. “We had to blend the zestiness of this Japanese citrus with subtle notes of apricot, to get the balance right with the unique flavor of our star ingredient: the Egyptian Water Lily.” There’s more than just flavor to get excited about here.

All Lily’s are sold in a 12 fl. oz. aluminum can with a suggested retail price of $5.00/unit in stores and $108 for a 24-unit case via e-commerce. “I’ve always loved drinks that give your taste buds a complex sensory experience. With each sip of YUZU you’ll be greeted by that invigorating citrus zing” says Lliguin. “We were shocked by how quickly our first flavor sold out, and even more so, by the demand for more flavors and we are excited to bring this addition to offer more versatility to our customers.” Lily is a sparkling non-alcoholic functional beverage infused with powerful adaptogens and nootropics, designed to give you a guilt-free energy boost and a clean buzz. Lily was created for all of life's situations—whether it's soothing anxiety before a big meeting, boosting energy before a workout class, or providing a light buzz during a night out with friends.
