  • Provided interim progress report to HPQ Silicon Resources highlighting GEN2’s significantly higher silicon metal production yield
  • A new operational parameter that increases the Pure Silicon Metal Production Yield1 of the PUREVAP™ Quartz Reduction Reactor and (ii) a test using the GEN2 PUREVAP™ was completed

MONTREAL, April 25, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — PyroGenesis Canada Inc. (http://pyrogenesis.com) (TSX-V: PYR) (OTCQB: PYRNF) (FRA: 8PY), a high-tech company, (the “Company”, the “Corporation” or “PyroGenesis”) that designs, develops, manufactures and commercializes plasma atomized metal powder, plasma waste-to-energy systems and plasma torch products, today announced that it has provided an interim progress report to HPQ Silicon Resources (“HPQ”), highlighting GEN2’s significantly higher silicon metal production yield.

PyroGenesis informed HPQ that (i) the technical team identified a new operational parameter that increases the Pure Silicon Metal (Silicon Nugget) Production Yield1 of the PUREVAP™ Quartz Reduction Reactor and (ii) a test using the GEN2 PUREVAP™ was completed which together provided the following information:

  1. The PUREVAP™ reactor can be modified from a stationary reactant2 mixtures load to a dynamic one, without affecting other key operational parameters of the reactor which, as a result, improves production yield significantly;
  2. That changing the reactant mixture load to a dynamic flow positively affects Production Yield;
  3. That it is feasible to modify the GEN3 PUREVAP™ Pilot Plant to integrate these advantages into the new design.

IMPROVING REACTANT FLOW IN THE REACTOR SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVES PRODUCTION YIELD

The scope of the potential of the new parameter became apparent when the test produced the largest single individual silicon nuggets of all tests to date; weighing ~ 6.5 grams.

REACTOR MODIFICATION MORE THAN DOUBLES SILICON METAL NUGGET (PURE SILICON) PRODUCTION YIELD

Comparing3 the 3.3% pure silicon nugget production yield of test #14 to the 7.0% pure silicon nugget production yield obtained by test M-001 validated the modification potential. Further tests will be needed to optimize the process and its operation, but the results clearly indicate that pure silicon production yield more than doubled with the modification. Producing 4N+ silicon with the PUREVAP™ assumes a 90%+ production yield at commercial scale. These results are part of our trendline that indicate that we are on the right track to reach that goal with our GEN3 PUREVAP™ Pilot Plant.

“It has always been important to maintain or improve production yield while scaling up to a commercial system,” said Mr. Pierre Carabin, Chief Technology Officer and Chief Strategist of PyroGenesis. “Being able to improve it, with results such as today’s, and thereby further mitigating the risk of the project, is a significant achievement in itself, and it validates the decision to proceed with the GEN2 middle step. We have ticked off another box in our goal to create both a low cost and green metallurgical approach to producing solar grade silicon metal.”

GEN2 PUREVAP™ QRR CONTINUES TO BE AN INVALUABLE BENCH TEST PLATFORM

These latest results confirm the strategic decision to incorporate the GEN2 as a middle step towards the GEN3 pilot plant. It provides us the ability to immediately test new concepts and design modifications using the GEN2 PUREVAP™ platform while the GEN3 PUREVAP™ pilot plant is being assembled. This unique proposition not only reduces the risk profile of the project, but it also reduces the project commercial validation timeline. It is also extremely cost effective since tests done using the GEN2 R&D platform are substantially less expansive then they would be if the tests were done using the GEN3 PUREVAP™ pilot plant.

Advance Gold $AAX.ca drills 1.05 m of 0.58 g/t Au at Tabasquena $MGG.ca SIL.ca $FA.ca

  • Phase 3 drilling results from 1100m program at 100% owned Tabasquena
  • The two deep holes did not intersect the targeted depth extension of the cluster of epithermal veins discovered in Phase 1 and 2 drilling
  • Advance believes the fault is the mineral source, and will re-evaluate the dip direction of the veins encountered in earlier drilling.

ADVANCE GOLD HITS SILVER AND GOLD IN OXIDE ZONE OF EPITHERMAL VEIN SYSTEM AT TABASQUENA PROJECT, MEXICO

Advance Gold Corp. has released drilling results from its phase 3 drilling program at the 100-per-cent-owned Tabasquena project in Zacatecas, Mexico. This 1,093-metre diamond drilling program included two deep holes targeting the western extension of a cluster of epithermal veins and one shallow hole to test the potential of the veins in the near-surface oxide zone.

Drilling Highlights

The 180m shallow hole targeted the oxide zone of the vein system and returned a 17.65 metre intersection with gold and silver mineralization throughout. Highlight interval included 4.72m with 0.15 g/t gold and 73 g/t silver. The best gold interval was 1.05m of 0.58 g/t gold and 31 g/t silver.

The oxide zone was hit at approximately 75 metres of depth, it is 125m north along strike of the nearest historical mining. More drilling will be needed to determine if this is a strike extension of the historical mining by Penoles of the main Tabasquena vein, or one of the other veins in the cluster. The two deep holes did not intersect the targeted depth extension of the cluster of epithermal veins discovered in Phase 1 and 2 drilling. It is possible that the veins are more vertically dipping than the company had thought.

Allan Barry Laboucan, President and CEO of Advance Gold Corp. commented: “We have completed 3 drilling programs for a total of 10 drill holes, 9 focused on drilling below the oxide zone and one targeted to hit the oxide zone at approximately the same depth as the historical mining by former operator Penoles. In this third phase of drilling, our goal was to test the depth extension of the cluster of epithermal veins hit in our earlier drilling. Based on this drill program, we no longer believe the fault is the mineral source, and that we need to re-evaluate the dip direction of the veins we hit in earlier drilling. We have yet to drill into the boiling zone of the cluster of epithermal veins. After our first shallow hole hit a 17.65 metre vein intersection, at approximately the same depth level as Penoles had mined in the past, we were comfortable we had a good intersection to help us understand the oxide zone better. Our findings suggest that either the Tabasquena vein gets significantly wider in the oxide zone as we move north, or that we hit another vein in the cluster, possibly in the oxide zone. We have more drilling to do in order to test the boiling zone of the cluster of epithermal veins, and to test the oxide zone more thoroughly to determine near surface mining potential at the Tabasquena project.”

Details of Phase 3 Drilling

Phase 3 drilling included the first hole that was focused on testing the oxide potential of the epithermal vein system. Hole AGT-09 was targeted to test down to the depth where historical mining intersected the oxides 125 metres away north of the strike of the known vein. More drilling will be required to determine if this is a strike extension of the Tabasquena vein that Penoles mined, or another vein in the cluster.

Deeper drilling in Phase 3 opened up the potential that the veins could be dipping more vertically. The two deep drill holes in Phase 3 (AGT-08 and AGT-10) were drilled from west to east. The targeted vein cluster was not intersected from these western step-outs. Importantly, drilling in phase 3 went through the fault, and back into the andesites which strongly suggests that the fault is not the plumbing system for the cluster of veins.

This hole had 28 core samples taken, they have been submitted to the laboratory for assaying, results are pending.

This hole had two core samples taken, they have been submitted to the laboratory for assaying, results are pending.

Note: All vein widths cut by drills holes are not true widths, they represent the intersection of the incline hole with the dip of the vein. Advance is in the process of estimating true widths for all the vein intersections.

Drill core is logged and sampled in a secure core storage facility located near the Tabasquena claims by Ojocaliente, Mexico. Core samples from the program are cut in half, using a diamond cutting saw, and were sent to Laboratorio Metalurgico Courtade S.A de C.V. in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, for sample preparation and fire assaying for gold and silver. Although, Laboratorio Metalurgico Courtade is not an accredited mineral analysis laboratory, they are a well-respected mineral analysis laboratory with a long history of working for major mining companies in Mexico, as well as a referee laboratory for grade disputes between small scale local miners and the toll mining companies they work with. All samples are analysed for gold and silver using standard fire assay-AA (atomic absorption) techniques. The Company relies on Laboratorio Metalurgico Courtade for QA/QC procedures and protocols for the assaying process.

Dr. Julio Pinto Linares is the qualified person for the Tabasquena project, since June 2018 when drilling began and throughout phase 3. Supervising drilling in the field for drill holes one through ten. He examined and reviewed core boxes in the field, supervised moving core boxes to the secure core storage facility located near the Tabasquena mine and was present during logging and sampling of the core and kept control of all sample bags until delivered to the Laboratorio Metalurgico Courtade. He checked and was present during the QA/QC procedures and protocols during the preparation of the samples.

Julio Pinto Linares is a QP, Doctor in Geological Sciences with specialty in Economic Geology and Qualified Professional No. 01365 by MMSA., for Advance Gold and is the qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 responsible for the accuracy of technical information contained in this news release.

Follow Up Drilling Plans for Oxide Zone and Depth Potential of Vein Cluster

The next drilling to explore for the boiling zone of the cluster of veins hit in phase 1 and 2, but, missed in phase 3, will focus on the down dip and the eastern strike potential. Early interpretation of the vein system showed the system dipping to the west, with most of the holes drilling to the east, to hit the veins perpendicular to the dip.

The cluster of epithermal veins below the oxide zone has been intersected for approximately 150 metres from east to west and approximately 250 metres from north to south. In the next planned program drilling will focus on intersecting the boiling point of the system and will be focused on testing the variation of grade from surface to 100 metres depth, which is considered the base of the oxide zone. Also, other oxide targets have been delineated on the property which will be drilled in a subsequent program.

The drill campaign focuses on the Refractory Zone. An independent technical report in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, prepared by B. Turcotte and G. Servelle of InnovExplo Inc. from Val-d’Or, Québec, and O. Peters, of AGP Mining Inc., dated March 24, 2016, was filed for the Project’s Graphene-Battery Zone. The report presented a mineral resource estimate of 18.4 M Tonnes at a grade of 3.19% carbon flake graphite (“Cg”) in the Indicated category and 16.7 M Tonnes at 3.75% Cg in the Inferred category using a cut-off of 1.5% Cg. The Project also includes several other untested anomalies.

The drill hole intercept is approximately 450 m SE from high grade intercepts drilled in 2017: 7.74% Cg over 135.6 m including 16.81% Cg over 44.1 m from LL-16- 01, and 14.56% Cg over 110.8 m from LL-16-03. Both holes are located at the Refractory Zone.

On the basis of the available geophysical and 2016 drilling data, the strike length of the mineralization is estimated at 900 m in the NW-SE direction and is open in both directions. A detailed interpretation of the results will be carried out to better estimate the thickness and strike length of the mineralized zone.

The Project consists of contiguous claim blocks totaling 29 km2 situated approximately 53 km E of Imerys Carbon and Graphite, formerly known as the Timcal graphite mine, North America’s only operating graphite mine, and located 117 km northwest of Montreal.

The 2019 exploration program is managed by Consul-Teck Exploration of Val-d’Or, Quebec, who designed the drilling campaign, supervised the program and logged and sampled the core.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control

Consul-Teck Exploration implemented QA/QC procedures to ensure best practices in sampling and analysis of the core samples. The drill core was logged and then split, with one half sent for assay and the other retained in the core box as a witness sample. Duplicates and blanks were inserted at a regular interval into the sample stream.

The samples in secure tagged bags were delivered directly to the analytical facility for analysis. In this case, the analytical facility was the ALS Minerals laboratory facility in Val-d’Or, Quebec. The samples are weighed and identified prior to sample preparation. The samples are crushed to 70% minus 2 mm, then separated and pulverized to 85% passing 75µm. All samples are analyzed for Carbon Graphite using the C-IR18 method.

March 28, 2019

It has been less than two years since I met Shawn Ryan and launched Labrador Gold and yet we have accomplished so much in that short time. We raised over $5 million, and in the process attracted investors such as Mr. Rob McEwen, Chairman and Chief Owner of McEwen Mining Inc., Plethora Precious Metals Fund, RyanWood principals Shawn Ryan and Cathy Wood, as well as friends and associates of management. We completed two field programs in Labrador, taking over 26,000 soil samples, 1,547 lake sediment samples and 728 rock samples. Following the first program we narrowed our focus to the two most prospective properties having identified regional scale gold anomalies on both. This year we will evaluate multiple compelling targets and undertake the first drilling to be carried out for gold on either property.

Both Shawn and I started in the mining industry when companies still did grassroots, reconnaissance scale exploration as a matter of course. We routinely used stream sediment sampling, soil sampling, till sampling and prospecting over large properties to continuously narrow down the search to the most prospective areas. Done correctly, it is an unbiased means of rapidly assessing the exploration potential of a region and it works. Shawn used soil sampling as the primary means for discovering gold deposits in the Yukon that add up to over 7.5 million ounces. I was part of team that used soil sampling to find the Navachab gold deposit in Namibia, which still had resources of 3.9 million ounces in 2014 following 15 years of production. Based on these successes it made sense to apply the same method to the Labrador properties.

Labrador Gold is the first company to take such a systematic approach to gold exploration in Labrador. Shawn used publicly available data, including mineral occurrences and assays of lake sediments, soil samples, and rock samples to stake three properties that covered 1,701 square kilometres, an area just smaller than the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius. We started narrowing the area down in 2017 with regional scale soil and lake sediment sampling and limited prospecting. The results were encouraging.

Two of the properties, Hopedale and Ashuanipi, showed significant gold anomalies in both soils and lake sediments with values up to 2.1g/t in the soil samples. At Ashuanipi the anomalies identified a 15 kilometre long by 2 to 6 kilometre wide north-south trend and a second 14 kilometre long by 2 to 4 kilometre wide east-west trend. The anomalies are broadly associated with magnetic highs and do not show any correlation with specific rock types suggesting a structural control on the localization of the gold anomalies. As a result of the successful program we added claims to the northern claim block in both Labrador and Quebec to cover potential extensions of the anomalies.

Gold in soil anomalies at the Hopedale project successfully picked up known gold mineralization over a three km segment of the northern Florence Lake greenstone belt known as Thurber Dog indicating that the technique works in Labrador. What was particularly exciting was that gold anomalies also occurred along the entire 40km length of the southern Florence Lake greenstone belt. This belt has many characteristics of greenstone belts elsewhere in the world including major crustal scale structures, greenschist facies metamorphism, the presence of felsic porphyries and granitic intrusions and similar volcanic rocks. In terms of size, it is intermediate between the Kirkland Lake and Timmins gold camps of Ontario. Such greenstone belts are prolific hosts of gold elsewhere in the world. As such, and based on our results so far, it is quite possible that future exploration may result in the discovery of one or more gold deposits at Florence Lake. In terms of exploration maturity, Florence Lake is at the stage the Timmins camp was over a hundred years ago.

Encouraged by the success of our 2017 field work, we planned a follow up program of detailed soil sampling on grids with lines spaced at 100 metres and sample intervals of 25 metres along the lines. This would allow better resolution of potential gold mineralization highlighted by the samples. At Ashuanipi, we took 7,475 soil samples on 18 grids across the Ashuanipi north claim block and along 61 reconnaissance soil lines over the claims staked in 2018. Results of analyses showed significant gold anomalies in all but two of the 18 grids and confirmed the 15km north-south anomalous trend with values up to 8,970 ppb Au (8.97g/t) and 67 samples containing more than 100 ppb (0.1g/t) Au. These results suggest a robust mineralized system that is regional in extent with elevated values indicating potential sites of near surface gold mineralization.

At Hopedale, we took more than 10,000 soil samples on 12 grids along the length of the Florence Lake greenstone belt covering anomalous gold-in-soil targets with favorable geology and structure. Results showed 34 samples with values greater than 100 ppb (0.1g/t) Au, with five of these samples grading greater than 1,000 ppb (1g/t) Au. Elevated gold values were found in samples from all 12 grids. The highest concentrations of samples with anomalous gold are found in the Thurber Dog, Jasmine and Misery grids. The anomalies extend along strike for 5km at Thurber Dog and 1.8km at Misery. Rock samples collected during mapping and prospecting showed 80 samples with values greater than 0.1 g/t gold including 17 samples that assayed greater than 1 g/t gold with a high of 11.4 g/t gold in a select grab sample from a quartz vein with pyrite and arsenopyrite mineralization.

Our first two field seasons using systematic sampling to narrow down areas of potential gold mineralization have been a success. Three areas were identified for further follow up on each of the Hopedale and Ashuanipi properties. Compilation and interpretation of all data including new aeromagnetic data, will refine these areas to ensure efficient, targeted assessment of their potential in the field. Initial follow up will include detailed mapping and rock sampling of each area. Once we receive the assays we expect to begin a drilling program on the most prospective targets in late summer.

The significant decline in discovery rates worldwide over the past decade calls for a more disciplined approach to exploration with longer term thinking. We have embraced this idea with our work in Labrador over the past two years and with the support of our shareholders have made big strides towards discovery. Based on our results to date I have a feeling that the 2019 field season will be an exciting one. I hope you will join us for the ride.
