VANCOUVER, May 17, 2016 /CNW/ - Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd. (TSX.V:SCZ) (the "Company" or "Santacruz") announces that it has filed on SEDAR an independent Technical Report titled "Technical Report, Veta Grande Project, Zacatecas State, Mexico" (the "Report"), for the Veta Grande Project located in Zacatecas, Mexico. The Veta Grande Project includes: the Veta Grande Properties and Mine, and Minillas property, held under the agreement with Contracuña (see press release dated November 2, 2015), and the Zacatecas Properties held under option from Golden Minerals Company (see press release dated May 4, 2016).


The Report, with an effective date of May 17, 2016, was prepared in accordance with CIM Standards, by independent qualified persons. The report was completed by Van Phu Bui, P.Geo. and Gilles R. Dessureau, P.Geo. of Arc Geoscience Group. The Report is available on www.sedar.com and the Company's website www.santacruzsilver.com.

Arturo Préstamo, President and CEO, remarked, "This initial report is a first step in the Company's planned systematic review of its mineral prospects located in Zacatecas, Mexico and forms a basis for further exploration and development work."

The Veta Grande Project mineral prospects located in the Mexican Silver Belt cover an area of 8,944 hectares (22,101 acres) in the Zacatecas Mining District, Zacatecas, Mexico, including two significant vein systems known for silver mineralization in the district: La Cantera and Veta Grande, both of which have extensive artisanal and small scale mining histories.

Oxide and sulphide bearing quartz veins within the La Cantera and Veta Grande vein systems strike northwest-southeast, generally dip southwest, and are characterized as low-sulphidation epithermal silver (+lead+zinc+gold) veins. They range in thickness from less than 1 m to over 30 m, average between 2-10 m, and in some instances have been traced along surface for several kilometres.

The Veta Grande Mine is an intermediate stage mineral exploration project for the following reasons: access to past underground workings for continued exploration, a permitted mineral processing facility for 500 tpd with current operating capacity of approximately 750 tpd, and good infrastructure being situated between the municipality of Veta Grande and the state capital of Zacatecas. The project has access to electric power, highways and paved roads, civil amenities, and a local skilled labor force.

Forward looking information

Certain statements contained in this news release, such as statements regarding the exploration and development of the Veta Grande Project, constitute "forward-looking information" as such term is used in applicable Canadian securities laws.

Veta Grande Mine
