Bayhorse Silver Tests Steinert KSS100 Ore-Sorter on Bayhorse Silver Mine Mineralization
Vancouver, June 13, 2017 - Bayhorse Silver Inc. (TSXV: BHS) (the "Company" or "Bayhorse") has completed three days of sorting of 3,000 kilograms (Kg) of Bayhorse Mine mineralized silver bearing material on the KSS100, Transmissive X-Ray ("XRT") Ore-Sorter that the Company has ordered. The testing was conducted at the Steinert facility at Walton, Kentucky, USA. The ore-sorting algorithms used were specifically designed to identify the Bayhorse silver mineralization and to effectively sort mineralized material sized as small as 10 mm at up to 40 tons per hour, from non-mineralized material.
The sorted material, consisting of three sorted grades of mineralized material, along with the rejected material residue, was shipped to Metsolve Metallurgical Labs of Langley, BC for assay. From the initial testing results from the Ore-Sorter, it appears that, compared to the 6 oz/ton silver used in the 1984 mining program, a preliminary cut off mining grade can be lowered to as little as 2 oz/ton silver.

In a recent interview by David Morgan (view the video) of Graeme O'Neill, Bayhorse CEO, Graeme commented, "The Ore-Sorter does not require any water in its operation, never gets tired, and has an extremely low power draw." He further comments that "using the Ore-Sorter is like having a thousand pair of eyes looking at each and every rock to see if it is mineralized or not and selects only those that are mineralized, rejecting everything else."
The Company advises it is not basing any decision to produce on a feasibility study of mineral reserves demonstrating economic and technical viability and also advises there is increased uncertainty and specific economic and technical risks of failure associated with any production decision.
