DSCR Announces Mining Operations Will Commence Late June 2019 on War Eagle
Mountain
Mining Operations on War Eagle Mountain will Commence late June on a near
surface section of the Oro Fino Trench
Phoenix, AZ, May 09, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- Discovery
Minerals LTD (OTCQB
SCR) is an acquisition and development Company that
targets natural resource properties primarily in precious metals and mining
operations. Discovery Minerals is pleased to announce that mining operations
will commence on the War Eagle Mountain Project in late June, 2019 on the Oro
Fino Trench.
As previously reported the initial mining target is a near surface extension
of the Oro Fino Vein with approximately 70,000 tons of ore. The recent
independent survey by Geoff Boswell of Underhill Associates revised the ore
grade from 10g per ton to 15g per ton Gold with a ratio of 5 oz of Silver for
each oz of Gold. It is also expected to find enrichment cross structures with
greater tonnages in the dilation zone and higher grades of gold & silver at
these intersections. While this initial operation is progressing the Company
expects to encounter further ore positions while mining development headings
to expand operations. To be clear this is only a small fraction of the War
Eagle Mountain Project and the Company’s planned operations. Oro Fino is one
of three vein structures that have shafts to a 1250 feet depth and can be
traced for 2 miles. The other two significant structures being Central and
Poorman.
Russell Smith, CEO of Discovery Minerals, Ltd, stated, “The Company and their
JV partner are enjoying the prospect of the commencement of a serious mining
campaign on this prolifically productive and well regarded historic mining
area, situated in the Owyhee Gold area of the Silver City Mining District. We
have a tremendous team in place and look forward to reporting on continued
progress as we identify additional target ore bodies. All Geologists,
including the most recent conclusions of Underhill Associates, state that War
Eagle Mountain contains multiple high grade gold and silver veins, similar to
those of the rich mines of northern Nevada and we look forward to many years
of operations to fully develop this resource. This is both the culmination of
many previous years of work and the beginning of an extremely exciting time
for the Company and our Shareholders. As always I would like to thank our
Shareholders for their continued support as we grow Discovery Minerals.”

History of War Eagle Mountain.
War Eagle Mountain is a proven historic gold and silver resource located
within the Silver City Mining District in Owyhee County, Idaho. The Oro Fino
Vein was discovered in 1862 and extends approximately 12,500 feet in length
and 2,000 feet in depth producing about 415,000 ounces of gold through 1875.
During the fall and winter of 1874 the owners of the Golden Chariot mine
completely refurbished the shaft and mill equipment, effectively "betting the
ranch" on the secure knowledge that the Oro Fino Vein continued uninterrupted
for a considerable distance and that approximately 85 % of the "known" and
"mapped" veins had not yet been mined. By the end of 1875 a total of ten
shafts had been sunk on the vein ranging in depth from 300 feet to 1250 . At
the height of the mining boom on the Oro Fino Vein, there was a nationwide
depression with Bank collapses and the source of working capital for the mines
dried up. During the winter of 1875-1876 the shafts filled with water to a
point that the Golden Chariot Shaft contained 1100 feet of standing water. In
1904 the American Smelter Corporation drove the Sinker tunnel to drain the
mine, however production mining never commenced before the tunnel entrance was
covered in a landslide. This cloistered condition has existed for the past
140 years, which has resulted in the preservation of this historical vein
system without it being disturbed by intruders or miners. The Sinker Tunnel
was rediscovered in 1994 and current ownership has been assembling the
patented claims for years finally bringing the Sinker Tunnel, Patented Claims
and a modern Mill under common control to allow mining operations to resume.
The early mining at this historic resource was accomplished primarily with
picks and shovels and a few pounds of black powder. Now with modern equipment
and techniques the DSCR JV will seek to mine the balance of the War Eagle
Mountain hydrothermal deposits. Mining will include the Oro Fino, Poorman and
Central vein systems.
