TORONTO , Aug. 29, 2022 /CNW/ - Adventus Mining Corporation ("Adventus Mining") (TSXV: ADZN) (OTCQX: ADVZF) and Salazar Resources Limited ("Salazar") (TSXV: SRL) (collectively the "Partners") are pleased announce an update on drilling activities at the Curipamba - El Domo copper-gold project in Ecuador (the "Project") with a planned peak program of seven rigs in total. Two diamond drill rigs are now working to upgrade the underground mineral resource estimate of the El Domo deposit that is at a preliminary economic assessment stage (see October 26, 2021 , news release). This work is in addition to the completed open pit feasibility study and mineral reserve estimate for the Project and will advance the basis for a future, combined open pit and underground feasibility study. For clarity, there are no changes to the previously completed open pit feasibility study, nor the ongoing permitting process for the Project.

For the ongoing detailed engineering program, the Partners have mobilized one diamond drill rig for the planned hydrogeological wells and expect four geotechnical drill rigs to mobilize over the next month. The drilling programs for the underground mineral resource upgrade and open pit detailed engineering are expected to continue into the second quarter of 2023 and shall include all remaining drilling required for the future construction and operations of the Project.

Upgrade of Underground Mineral Resources – 12,000-metre infill drill program with two drill rigs at the El Domo deposit which will provide additional information for the planned upgrade of mineral resource categories of the underground component for engineering studies, and;

Advancement of Detailed Engineering – as previously planned, five geotechnical drill rigs will focus on establishing additional groundwater monitoring wells for continuing hydrogeological assessment and the project permitting process, and to support detailed engineering of the tailings impoundment area, waste rock pads, and process plant site.

Background: Curipamba - El Domo Open-pit & Underground Development

The Project feasibility study published by Adventus Mining on October 26, 2021 , significantly enhanced the engineering design and future construction plans of an open-pit mine and facilities to produce concentrates of copper, zinc, and lead with significant gold and silver credits. All results were summarized in an independent NI 43-101 Technical Report and filed on the Partners' SEDAR profiles. The Project feasibility study and Technical Report focused on open-pit development, but also included a preliminary economic assessment of a future underground mine expansion that requires additional engineering studies and an upgrade to the underground mineral resource.

The new underground work program will provide information for the additional engineering studies while upgrading the confidence in the underground mineral resource categories for a future feasibility study that will include an underground mine expansion. At present, the drilling program has been optimized and designed to use only 22 platforms for all 48 planned drill holes. At present, 2 infill definition drill holes have been successfully completed totaling 321 metres from the planned 12,000 metres, with two drill holes in progress totaling a further 218 metres completed. Perforaciones Andesdrill S.A. of Quito, Ecuador ("Andesdrill"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Salazar is completing the project. Figure 1 outlines the drill locations for this program and Table 1 the drill collar location coordinates.

The Partners believe that a combined and optimized open pit and underground feasibility study could potentially expedite the underground mine development and mill expansion in the early years of open pit operations, which could result in a material increase in annual production and net present value, but not affect the current timeline to obtain final permits for construction and operations from the open pit. The Partners will continue to provide updates on the underground work programs as part of regular Project updates.

Curipamba - El Domo Detailed Engineering & Geotechnical Drilling

Terrahidro S.A. of Quito, Ecuador ("Terrahidro") has been contracted to continue geotechnical drilling of the tailings impoundment area, waste rock pads and the process plant site in order to complete and support detailed engineering for the future construction of the El Domo mine site. Terrahidro has mobilized two geotechnical drill rigs that will remain onsite through the detailed engineering drilling program with an additional two geotechnical drill rigs anticipated to mobilize in September 2022 .  Also, Andesdrill has provided one diamond drill rig for continuing hydrogeology studies and the establishment of groundwater monitoring wells for detailed engineering and the project permitting process.

Technical Information and Quality Control & Quality Assurance ("QAQC")

The Curipamba project drilling and resource-related work program is being managed and reviewed by Vice President Exploration, Jason Dunning , M.Sc., P.Geo., a non-Independent Qualified Person within the meaning of NI 43-101. Salazar staff collect and process samples that are securely sealed and shipped to Bureau Veritas ("BV") in Quito for sample preparation that includes crushing and milling to prepare pulps that are then split for shipment to their facility in Lima, Peru for analysis. All assay data have undergone internal validation of QAQC; noting there is an established sampling control program with blind insertion of assay blanks, certified industry standards and sample duplicates for the Curipamba project. A QAQC program is also in place at BV and includes insertion of blanks, standards, and duplicate reanalysis of selected samples. BV's quality system complies with the requirements for the International Standards ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 17025: 1999. At BV, gold is analyzed by classical fire assay techniques with an ICP-AES finish, and both silver and base metals are analyzed by a 44-element aqua regia ICP-AES technique. Overlimit protocols are in place for gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc.

The technical information of this news release has been reviewed and verified as accurate by Mr. Jason Dunning , M.Sc., P.Geo., Vice President Exploration for Adventus, a non-Independent Qualified Person, as defined by NI 43-101.

FRANKFURT/GDANSK (Reuters) -Russia has scrapped a Saturday deadline to resume flows via a major gas supply route to Germany, deepening Europe's difficulties in securing winter fuel, after saying it had found faults in the Nord Stream 1 pipeline during maintenance. Nord Stream 1, which runs under the Baltic Sea, had been due to resume operating at 0100 GMT on Saturday after a three-day halt for maintenance. But Gazprom, the state-controlled firm with a monopoly on Russian gas exports via pipeline, said on Friday it could not safely restart deliveries until it had fixed an oil leak found in a vital turbine.

Fast-growing cybersecurity company CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) reported strong fiscal second-quarter results earlier this week. Its fiscal second-quarter revenue and adjusted earnings per share both came in higher than analysts' consensus forecasts, as annual recurring revenue soared 59% year over year, surpassing $2 billion for the first time. While it's true that CrowdStrike's business has been firing on all cylinders, there has been significant pressure on growth stocks in 2022 as investors appear to be more sensitive to valuation risk.
