Silver Predator Announces Re-election of Board Members
Toronto, Ontario, June 27, 2016: Silver Predator Corp. (TSX.V:SPD) (the “Company” or “Silver Predator”) , is pleased to announce that all of the incumbent directors were re-elected at its Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) held on June 23, 2016, in Hayden, Idaho.
The shareholders approved all of the proposed resolutions, re-appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s auditors, and approved Silver Predator’s stock option plan as required annually by the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange.
A total of 105,357,692 shares were voted representing 82.8% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.
Chief Executive Officer, Michael Maslowski provided shareholders with an update on the status of the Company:
“As you may remember at this time last year, circumstances were very challenging for our industry. Indeed, they were the worst seen in many years. Shares prices for all companies were at exceptional lows, and the inflow of funds for exploration was basically non-existent.
Recognizing the difficult times, and not knowing what the future would hold, SPD implemented an asset realization program in July of 2015 that was designed to deliver cash to the company and permit us to weather the storm.
Fortunately, market conditions have since improved quite a bit in the metals mining industry, and share prices are rebounding. This is affording us a much better opportunity to execute on our plan to monetize certain assets in order to strengthen our balance sheet.
During the past year, and continuing to the present, we have had quite encouraging expressions of interest in the mill equipment at the Taylor silver property, and in the Springer tungsten property and mill. While no deals have been consummated yet, we are actively in discussions with multiple parties for the sale or optioning of the Springer property and mill, and have recently listed the Taylor mill with one of the largest mine and milling equipment dealers in the west.
As the market continues to improve we will continue to work on monetizing the Taylor mill and the Springer facility. We are fairly confident that we can complete a significant deal on one or both of these properties within the next 6 months. Once completed, the company can utilize a portion of the proceeds to meet the obligations of our debt owed to Till Capital, and once again advance our portfolio of silver properties.
In summary, I view our prospects in a much more favorable light than just 6 months ago, and look forward to consummating deals that will provide us the liquid capital to move forward on our future plans.”
Silver Predator Corp.
Silver Predator owns the Springer Tungsten Mine and Mill Complex where the current mineral resource estimate(1) is 246,117 Indicated tons at an average grade of 0.43% containing 106,113 STU’s (short ton units) of WO3 (tungsten trioxide) and 1,768,968 Inferred tons at an average grade of 0.48% containing 852,884 STU’s of WO3. The Springer facility was originally constructed by General Electric Corp. in the late 1970’s and was operational for a few months in the early 1980’s when the project was put on care and maintenance due to low tungsten prices. Golden Predator Corp. modernized the mill in 2007-2008.
The Company also holds the Taylor silver-gold project in Nevada. The Taylor project hosts a current resource estimate (2) , is open to expansion, and is located in a district that has identified the potential for discovery of additional silver and gold deposits.
