Mining License Issued to Silver Bear

03.09.2013  |  Marketwire

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Sep 3, 2013) - Silver Bear Resources Inc. ("Silver Bear" or the "Company") (TSX:SBR) today announces a major step forward in the development of the company's main project at its Mangazeisky property in Russia. The Russian State Subsoil Agency ("Rosnedra"), in co-operation with Yakutnedra (regional subsoil authority), has granted the Company a mining license for the company's Vertikalny Deposit on its Mangazeisky property in Russia. The mining license is valid for a period of twenty years.

The mining license covers production from its Vertikalny deposit and provides for a minimum production rate of 180,000 tonnes of ore per year. Silver Bear believes this production target is reasonable and achievable. Table 1 sets out the Company's mineral resource estimate prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") which shows a total ore tonnage of approximately 2.7 million tonnes of ore at the Vertikalny deposit. The Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") released in September, 2011 had a production rate of approximately 340,000 tonnes of ore per year, well within the mining license permission (see notes in relation to the PEA below).

"This is a significant milestone for Silver Bear," said CEO Mark Trevisiol. "Silver Bear is amongst a very select group of foreign companies to have successfully negotiated the Russian licensing process. It is a tribute to the team in place in Russia and in Canada that we have achieved this result. This achievement now opens the way for the next phase in the project's development. Additionally, having the mining license in hand increases Silver Bear's attraction to investors who have been closely following developments of the project. I would also like to acknowledge the support from both the Russian and Canadian governments and their active participation in helping Silver Bear throughout the licensing process. Few foreign companies have got this far in their efforts, so this is not only positive for Silver Bear but for all mining investment in Russia."

Further, the company has, through the summer of 2013, conducted exploration on its Mangaziesky property and plans to provide an update on its achievements in the coming weeks. CEO Mark Trevisiol commented, "we are very satisfied with our operational progress over this summer and look forward to updating the markets in due course."

CAUTIONARY NOTES

PEA report

The Preliminary Economic Assessment report was prepared by Wardrop under the supervision of Mr. P. Gribble, FIMMM C.Eng., who is an independent qualified person as defined in National Instrument 43-101. The PEA is preliminary in nature and is based on a number of assumptions that may be changed in the future as additional information becomes available. The PEA is based on mineral resources estimates published in March 2011, which do not reflect exploration conducted since their effective date of February 25, 2011, and the PEA does not reflect the latest inferred mineral resource estimate on the Nyizhny Endybal Deposit published by Silver Bear effective September 20, 2012. Certain assumptions used in the PEA, some of which relate to the February 2011 mineral resource estimate, may have changed from those used for the new resource estimate, causing a variation of parameters. Moreover, the updated mineral resource estimate on Nyizhny Endybal may have an impact on Silver Bear's plans on how it intends to develop the deposit. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The PEA includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the PEA will be realized.
