Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 24, 2018) - Silver One Resources Inc. (TSXV: SVE) (OTC Pink: SLVRF) (FSE: BRK1) - ("Silver One" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has made the latest option payment to SSR Mining Inc. for the Candelaria Silver Mine Project in Nevada, U.S. by issuing a total of 2,828,636 shares at a deemed price of USD $1 million.
Greg Crowe, President and CEO of Silver One, stated: "Work completed during the first year of our Option Agreement with SSR Mining has clearly demonstrated the increasing merits of the project. In 2018 we plan to advance Candelaria by continuing our evaluation of potential near-term production from the historic leach pads. We also plan on examining the possible along-strike continuation of the mineralized system in combination with the presence of high-grade down-dip silver mineralization as indicated by previous drilling completed by SSR Mining in early 2001."
The Company entered into an Option Agreement in January 2016 with a subsidiary of SSR Mining, in which it is required to make four payments to acquire 100% interest from SSR Mining in the Candelaria Silver Mine Project. To date, Silver One has made the first two option payments and has issued a total of 4,161,536 shares to SSR Mining.
The shares issued under the most recent option payment will be subject to resale restrictions until May 20, 2018.
