Southern Silver Exploration Corp.
Climate Impact & Sustainability Data (2021, 2023)
Reporting Period: 2021
Environmental Metrics
Social Achievements
- Negotiated and executed Exploration Access agreements with Ejidos having jurisdiction over lands contained within original Cerro Las Minitas claim group and the newly staked CLM West Claim Group.
Climate Goals & Targets
Long-term Goals:
- Engineering studies and metallurgical testing to prepare the project for a Preliminary Economic Assessment
- Complete a Preliminary Economic Assessment
Medium-term Goals:
- Further drilling on the eastern margin of the central Intrusion to delineate potential additional resources in the South Skarn and La Bocona target areas
- Further drill in order to de-risk areas of high variability within the Skarn Front deposit
Short-term Goals:
- Step-out drilling to the southeast and down dip on the Las Victorias target to test the on-strike potential of the Skarn Front and Blind zone extensions.
- Infill drilling in order to better define the specific mineralized zones
Environmental Challenges
- Metallurgy, continuity of the structures and continued ability to expand resources.
- Faults and other structures may be encountered that would pose interpretation challenges.
- Thickness can vary particularly in the Blind and El Sol zones which may require more selective mining methods which will increase costs and require higher cut-off grades to justify.
- Political and socio-economic climate in Mexico poses risks and uncertainties that could delay or even stop development.
Mitigation Strategies
- Further metallurgical testing is required in order to clearly understand recoveries.
- Further engineering work and some additional metallurgical test work is in process to further de-risk the project and advance the project toward a Preliminary Economic Assessment.
