American CuMo Mining Corporation (TSXV: MLY) (OTC Pink: MLYCF) (“CuMoCo” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that SRK Consulting of Vancouver has been engaged to provide a new update to the mining, tailings, and project economics sections of a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) study for the CuMo copper-molybdenum project in Idaho, USA, and to generate an NI 43-101 technical report for public release.
Given the age of the mining and tailings sections (originally Ausenco 2009), the Company felt it prudent to update and examine further optimizations for these sections to make them current. The work by SRK will be combined with the previous work by Giroux and Sacre-Davey to re-generate a current NI 43-101 technical report for public release. Work has already begun with a site visit to the project by SRK personnel. The report is estimated to take six to eight weeks to complete.
SRK Consulting is renowned for its preparation of independent technical reports, consistently leading global consultancies in this regard, and is a trusted brand among financial institutions, mining companies and investors.
Mr. Shaun M. Dykes, M.Sc. (Eng), P.Geo., President and CEO of the Company, is the designated qualified person for the CuMo Project and the Calida Gold project and has prepared the technical information contained in this news release.
