Silver Bull Receives Water Permits for Flagship Sierra Mojada
Silver-Zinc Project, Coahuila, Mexico
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Feb 25, 2014) -
Silver Bull Resources, Inc. (TSX:SVB)(NYSEMKT:SVBL) ("Silver Bull")
is pleased to announce it has been granted water permits to access
water of up to 3,500,000 cubic meters per annum for use on its
Sierra Mojada Project in Coahuila, Mexico.
The National Water Commission of Mexico ("CONAGUA"), an agency
of the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources, has granted 6
permits to a subsidiary of Silver Bull for water wells with
capacity to draw up to 3,500,000m3 annually from the regional
aquifer.
The Preliminary Economic Assessment on the Sierra Mojada
project, filed November 15, 2013 (and available for download at
www.silverbullresources.com), outlined an 8,500 tonne per day mill
throughput operation with an estimated annual industrial water
requirement for 2,000,000m3 and annual potable water requirement of
500,000m3, resulting in an estimated total annual regional water
requirement of 2,500,000m3.
A hydrological report commissioned by Silver Bull in November
2012 shows the Sierra Mojada project sits on the edge of the Laguna
del Ray Aquifer which covers an estimated area of 3,097km2 and can
easily accommodate the water requirements for the project.
Tim Barry, President and CEO of Silver Bull, states, "This is
another major step forward for the project. One of the major
killers of projects in dry regions can often be access to enough
water; we do not have this problem at Sierra Mojada. Hydrological
studies completed on the area clearly indicate that there is
sufficient water available to support our operations as well as
future growth for nearby communities as a result of the jobs we
create in the region. This is yet another key milestone to de-risk
this project and advance it forward."
