CARSON CITY, Nev., June 6, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mexus Gold US (OTCQB:MXSG) ("Mexus" or the "Company") Shareholder Update:
Mexus Gold US announced that it has turned down a seven figure offer for the funding of its Julio/Santa Elena project. This offer came from one of three mining companies that Mexus is in discussions with. President Paul Thompson states "The offer came from a well-known mining company but unfortunately the demands were too high and would have resulted in our ownership being diminished."
Mr. Thompson went on to say "We have way too much knowledge of the Julio/Santa Elena now for the company to take just any offer. From producing placer in the last year, sampling and a trial run of our underground high grade Julio mine, along with the core drilling that has been done on the property the potential for a large open pit/heap leach operation is real." The potential can be seen in two spreadsheets recently posted to the company website. CEO Thompson stated "These reports were produced with the help of a potential purchaser. This isn't just Mexus' work. I hope our investors take a few moments to read these sheets to get a real sense of the potential we have as a company." The projections are based on two different time frames using 1.2 grams per ton. The spreadsheets referenced can be found here.
Mexus also announced that it has decided to place the placer operation back into production. The company will triple the production level it had previously run. This will give Mexus positive cash flow while waiting for the right financing/funding opportunity to arise. The company wants to reiterate that it still is in ongoing negotiations with potential partners.
