The San Ramon Mine is located five kilometers southeast of IMPACT’s central Guadalupe processing plant in the Royal Mines of Zacualpan District of central Mexico. It commenced production in 2008 on the San Ramon Upper Zone and in 2014 on the San Ramon Deeps Zone discovered at depth, together averaging 20-30% of IMPACT’s total quarterly production for the last decade and half. In total, mining has occurred on 29 working levels on three subparallel vein systems. Known mineralization over the total San Ramon workings has a down dip length of 430m and a strike length of 500m. It remains open for expansion and additional drilling is in progress. A vertical long section through the San Ramon mine and drill holes is attached to this news release or can be viewed on the company website at www.IMPACTSilver.com.

Company engineers are reviewing Capire for potential restart of operations in light of current elevated silver prices.

IMPACT does not assume the obligation to update any forward-looking statement.
The Company’s decision to place a mine into production, expand a mine, make other production related decisions or otherwise carry out mining and processing operations, is largely based on internal non-public Company data and reports based on exploration, development and mining work by the Company’s geologists and engineers. The results of this work are evident in the discovery and building of multiple mines for the Company and in the track record of mineral production and financial returns of the Company since 2006. Under NI 43-101 the Company is required to disclose that it has not based its production decisions on NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource or reserve estimates, preliminary economic assessments or feasibility studies, and historically such projects have increased uncertainty and risk of failure.
