Endeavour Silver Receives Final Tailings Permit for the Terronera Mine Project in Jalisco State, Mexico
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 18, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Endeavour Silver Corp. (NYSE: EXK; TSX: EDR) announces that it has received the final tailings permit for the Terronera silver-gold mine project located in Jalisco state, Mexico.
The ETJ permit, or “Authorization to Change Soil Use on Forest Land”, was issued by SEMARNAT, the Mexican Ministry of Environment. It gives Endeavour Silver the right to store tailings from the proposed Terronera high grade, underground, silver-gold mine in a secure, filtered dry stack tailings facility adjacent to the proposed plant site.
Filtered dry stack tailings are considered to represent best practice in the mining sector because the tailings are filtered to recycle the water back to the plant prior to stacking them behind a storage dam. Dry stack tailings facilities cost more to build and operate than conventional wet tailings facilities but they are safer and “greener” and represent the future of tailings storage.
