Radius has optioned the 473-hectare Tarros Project, host to several large gold- silver mineralized diatreme breccia bodies 50 km north of Amalia. Riverside Resources Inc. [RRI-TSXV] updated exploration at the Glor gold proj- ect in Sonora. Positive results obtained by Riverside's summer program of geological mapping and rock sampling (up to 14.4 g/t gold) encouraged its partner, Centerra Gold Inc. [CG-TSX], which can earn 70% interest, to work up additional geophysical and extensive soil geochemistry surveys to select drill targets in the central part of the project. Riverside is also exploring its Penoles silver-gold project in Durango, the Cecilia gold-silver project in Sonora, the Tajitos gold project, also in Sonora, and the La Silla gold project in Sinaloa. San Marco Resources Inc. [SMN- TSXV] has several projects in Mexico. The company reported results and rec- ommendations of recent exploration on its 1068 and Chunibas projects in Sonora. The 1068 Project is an undrilled copper- molybdenum-gold porphyry system discovered from San Marco's generative program. Mineralization was noted during drill road construction with copper val- ues up to 0.76%, gold up to 0.17 g/t and molybdenum up to 2,050 ppm over 3-4 metre channel samples. Drilling is recom- mended after additional surface mapping and sampling is completed. Additional drilling is also planned on the recently discovered mineralized breccia on the Chunibas Project Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd. [SCZ- TSXV; 1SZ-FSE] has two producing mines in Mexico – the Rosario silver-gold-lead- zinc mine in San Luis Potosi and the Veta Grande silver-lead-zinc mine in Zacatecas. The company also holds three exploration properties. Sierra Metals Inc. [SMT-TSX, BVL] has two mines in Mexico – the Bolivar and Cusi – and various exploration proj- ects. Sierra has implemented an operation turnaround program in Mexico to modern- ize operations, improve production and lower costs. The company expects to see the results from this program become more apparent in the latter part of 2017 and early 2018 when Mexican production will improve. Silver Bull Resources Inc. [SVB-TSX] reported results of the first two drill holes from its underground drill program tar- geting high-grade structures in the newly discovered sulphide zone on the Sierra Mojada Project, Coahuila. Highlights include 25.5 metres at 294 g/t silver and 0.96% copper, including 11.5 metres at 486 g/t silver and 1.13% copper (14-25.5 metres), which contained a smaller interval of 4.0 metres at 966 g/t silver and 2.0% copper (15-19 metres). SilverCrest Metals Inc. [SIL-TSXV] has six projects in Mexico. The company reported more underground channel MEXICO
