Mexican Gold Welcomes Craig Roberts and Michael Murphy as Technical Advisors
29 January 2021 - 1:00AM
Mexican Gold Mining Corp. (the “
Company” or
“
Mexican Gold”
) (TSXV: MEX) is
pleased to announce that Craig Roberts and Michael Murphy have
joined the Company as Technical Advisors.
Highlights:
- Michael Murphy is a Founder and
Director of Torex Gold, responsible for identifying Torex’s Morelos
Gold asset from Teck and arranging a +$240-million financing to
acquire the asset. Morelos is now in production and produced over
400,000 oz last year.
- Craig Roberts is the CEO of New
Found Gold and CTO of Palisades Goldcorp, and he has played lead
roles in a large number of mining equity financings.
- Their collective background in
mining, Mexico, and financing of development projects will assist
the Company as it moves Las Minas towards a Preliminary Economic
Assessment.
Craig Roberts stated: “I am very much looking
forward to working with the Mexican Gold team and as they move
ahead with an initial economic evaluation at Las Minas. Many years
of exploration work has led to the definition of a resource
sufficient to support a maiden PEA economic evaluation. If the
results of this study work are positive, the possibility of
establishing an initial mining operation based on the currently
defined resource with the potential to expand the scale of
operations through further exploration success provides an
interesting and exciting path forward for Mexican Gold. I have been
involved in financing and advising management at several other
successful start-ups of smaller underground mining operations in
Mexico that have subsequently undergone significant expansions, and
am optimistic that a similar path forward can be pursued at Las
Minas.”
Michael Murphy stated: “I also look forward to
working with the Mexican Gold team as a technical advisor. The Las
Minas gold and copper project is on track to become one of the next
exciting exploration and development projects in Mexico, with the
right asset and the right team in place.”
