The Trench 1 bulk sample, where approximately 10,000 tonnes has been identified, is currently 90% extracted. To date, 3,812 tonnes (38% complete) of material have been Hauled to McEwen Inc's Stock Mill for processing. The Company anticipates results from this bulk sample in November and will provide updates as they become available.

Drilling Update
