Silver X Mining Corporation ("Silver X")

 

On 28 November 2022 Silver X announced that it had positive operating earnings
of US$2.0 million for the first time during the third quarter of 2022. Record
quarterly operating revenues of US$5.5 million, were a 73% increase from
previous quarter. Cash costs were US$11.0 per silver equivalent ("AgEq") ounce
produced with an All-In-Sustaining Cost of US$15.8 per AgEq ounce produced.
This was as a result of record quarterly AgEq ounces processed and produced of
481,040 and 371,072, respectively from its Recuperada operation in Peru.

 

During October 2022, Silver X raised C$3 million via a private placement at a
price of C$0.22 per Unit consisting of one common share plus 1/2 2-year C$0.33
share purchase warrant.

 

During November 2022 the share price of Silver X rose 46% on the TSX-V to
C$0.395/share. The Company is the largest shareholder of Silver X with
approximately 13.7% of the issued share capital following the conversion of
its convertible loan at C$0.30 per share earlier this year.

 

 

Futura Resources Limited ("Futura")

 

On 23 November 2022, the Queensland Government announced that it had approved
the mining licences of Futura's two steelmaking coal mines.  Queensland's
Resources Minister Scott Stewart said the approval of Futura Resources'
(https://www.futuraresources.com.au/)  Fairhill and Wilton projects near
Emerald was a big boost for the regional workforce and economy. He said "These
projects are in the heart of the Bowen Basin and will benefit from the
existing infrastructure in place from nearby mines. At their peak, these two
mines will produce more than three million tonnes per year of steelmaking
coal, which will be processed then transported by rail to the Port of
Gladstone and exported to key international markets."  Both mines have an
initial 10-year proposed lifespan but could be expanded to more than 20 years
with continued exploration.

The award of the mining licences was a key condition to Futura raising the
requisite finance to fund the start of both mines and it is hoped that this
can now be resolved in the near future so that mining can commence in the
second quarter 2023 and take advantage of the current strong prices for
steelmaking coal.
