Elemental Royalties Limited, (“Elemental”), a private company expanding a diversified portfolio of mineral royalties, is pleased to comment on the recent announcement made by Premier Gold Mines Limited (“Premier”) providing an update from its ongoing 42,000m drilling program. Premier is the operator of the Mercedes gold-silver mine located in State of Sonora in northern Mexico, on which Elemental Royalties holds a 1% NSR royalty subject to a production hurdle.

Elemental notes that drilling is currently focused on delineating new mineral resources in the Lupita Extension area as well as confirming potentially important discoveries at San Martin and Neo.

Highlights from October drilling include:

• San Martin exploration drilling expands high grade zone with:
  • 1.4 m of 15.80 g/t Au & 69.00 g/t Ag
  • 4.6 m of 10.03 g/t Au & 57.65 g/t Ag
• Ongoing delineation program at Lupita Extension – highlights:
  • 8.9 m of 9.41 g/t Au & 34.15 g/t Ag
  • 3.6 m of 7.96 g/t Au & 31.69 g/t Ag

Lupita Extension
The Lupita Extension hosts a 3m wide silicified vein of typical low-sulphidation epithermal textures and diagnostic green quartz, where drilling was designed to expand the Lupita resource to the west. After a successful Phase 1 program of 18 drill holes with a 60m spacing, Phase 2 started in May 2019 on a 30m grid, aiming to create indicated mineral resource for the year end.

The Phase 2 drill program  completed a total of 87 drillholes, of which 17 still have assays pending. Based on drilling to-date, the average true width of Lupita Extension is approximately 2.9m grading 5.56 g/t Au. Minimum mining widths in the Lupita area in 2020 are expected to be reduced from 4m to 3m, minimizing dilution in future mining at Lupita Extension. Development to access the Lupita Extension, which is displaying grades well in excess of the current reserve grade at Mercedes, is planned for H1-2020.

San Martin
San Martin is a target located 600m to the west of Lupita, discovered with an intercept of 1.5 m of 5.56 g/t Au (L19-396D) in May 2019. A further 10 drillholes suggest an average true width of approximately 3.2m grading 6.95 g/t Au. The two new intercepts recently drilled at San Martin continue to expand high grade mineralization with 1.4 m of 15.80 g/t Au & 69.00 g/t Ag in L19-457D and 4.6 m of 10.3 g/t Au & 57.65 g/t Ag in L19-496D.

More delineation is planned for 2020 with the intent to upgrade mineralization to an Indicated mineral resource. Given a spacing of less than 60m of drilling at San Martin during 2019, a portion of the mineralization will warrant inclusion into mineral resources at year end.

Immediate cash-flow has enabled the Company to limit dilutive fund-raisings to facilitate royalty acquisitions, and to pay a dividend from inception.

Elemental’s focus remains on securing royalties over advanced assets with established operators and credible counter-parties from a robust pipeline of potential royalty acquisitions across commodities and geographies.
