Anticipated Sales of Tailings and Iron Ore
Herald the Company’s Transition from Exploration to Mining
Operations
El Capitan Precious Metals, Inc. (OTCBB: ECPN) announced today
that it has successfully completed the assembly and testing of the
AuraSource Heavy Metals Separation System at the New Mexico mine
site. When mining operations commence, the sale of the tailings
will mark the Company’s transition from an exploration company to
an operating mining company.
The Company also reported that it is in active negotiations with
a buyer for the tailings—the precious-metals-rich concentrates—that
are created when ore is processed via the Heavy Metals Separation
System. Once a new contract is in place for the sale of the
precious-metals concentrates, and coupled with the existing
contract for the sale of iron ore, El Capitan will have established
itself as a sustainable and profitable mining company.
ECPN Board Chairman John F. Stapleton stated, “These are
exciting times for the Company and its shareholders as we complete
significant steps in our strategic plan.”
Stapleton confirmed that the Company is in the final stages of
obtaining its amended and expanded mining operations permits from
the state of New Mexico.
Chuck Mottley, El Capitan President and CEO, added, “These new
and positive activities at the El Capitan site make a huge
statement in terms of the asset value of the El Capitan property
and it is gratifying to see a very bright light, at long last, at
the end of a tunnel that represents decades of exploration,
testing, and development of initial mining operations on behalf of
our shareholders.”
As announced earlier this month, the Annual Meeting of the El
Capitan Shareholders will be held on September 25, 2014 in
Scottsdale, Arizona.
