Integra Resources Corp. announced the commencement of the 2019 exploration program at the DeLamar Gold-Silver Project, situated in Owyhee County, in southwestern Idaho. Following the acquisition of the DeLamar Project in November 2017, Integra released two NI43-101 inferred resource estimates on the project outlining a sizeable endowment of gold and silver at DeLamar and Florida Mountain, in addition to the commencement of the first comprehensive drill program on the project in over 25 years. The Company conducted over 23,400 m drilling in 80 drill holes at DeLamar and Florida Mountain in 2018. The table below highlights a selection of drill results encountered at the project, in various areas. It should be noted that most of the results highlighted below are situated well outside of the inferred resource boundary. Due to the positive drill results recently reported in drill hole IDM18-59, the Company has deferred the commencement of the planned resource estimate update while it amends its drill plan to focus on infill and extension drilling near IDM18-59. Resource estimation will commence once a minimum number of infill holes are conducted in this area. The short adjournment of the resource study will allow the results from IDM18-059, and any other infill and step-out drilling to be conducted in January, February and March to be included in the 2019 resource estimate update on the DeLamar Project. This resource update will form the basis of the 2019 PEA, to be conducted by Mine Development Associates (“MDA”) of Reno, Nevada, and is expected to be completed in second half 2019. Integra’s proposed 2019 exploration program will include 6,000 m of drilling at the DeLamar Deposit, 10,000 m of drilling at the Florida Mountain Deposit, and 4,300 m of drilling to be conducted on newly acquired regional prospects well outside of the resource areas. Drilling will be conducted throughout the entire year as most areas are drill accessible during the winter months. In parallel with current drilling underway in the Sullivan Gulch area, a comprehensive metallurgical study is currently underway by McClelland Laboratories Inc. based in Reno, Nevada. The metallurgical study, designed to feed into the 2019 PEA, is aimed at defining the ore processing characteristics for future development and production scenarios at DeLamar and Florida Mountain. Milling scenarios, including flotation and cyanidation, in addition to heap leach scenarios, and combinations of the two options, are being studied by McClelland Laboratories for use in the upcoming PEA. With the resource update and metallurgical data in-hand, the company will initiate a PEA looking at various development and production options for the DeLamar and Florida Mountain gold-silver Deposits. Subject to the completion of further studies, the Company believes that incorporating one or more development alternatives in parallel, with mineralization sourced from both the DeLamar and Florida Mountain Deposits, will lead to a positive preliminary outcome in terms of estimated production profiles and project economics. The study is expected to be completed in second half 2019.
