Generation Mining Initiates Trade Off Studies in Preparation for a Feasibility Study - Seite 2

In addition, the Company has engaged G-Mining Services to complete the feasibility study mine plan for the Marathon Project. G-Mining is highly regarded engineering firm based in Brossard, Quebec with recent success at Newmont’s Merian mine, Lundin Gold’s Fruta del Norte mine and Greenstone’s Hardrock feasibility study.  The mine design is intending to maximize value with a focus on delivering high-grade palladium in the first half of the mine life.

Generation also announces it is planning a summer exploration program including geophysics, prospecting and at least 5000 metres of drilling. Details of the planned program will be released in June.

Currently, there are 130,505,937 common shares of the Company outstanding. Generation is well financed for the next phases of work, including the feasibility study and the restart of the permitting process, with approximately $14.3-million in working capital.

About the Marathon Palladium Project

The Marathon Deposit is the largest undeveloped platinum group metal Mineral Resource in North America. The Marathon Property covers a land package of approximately 22,000 hectares, or 220 square kilometres. Generation Mining acquired a 51% interest in the Marathon Property from Sibanye Stillwater on July 10, 2019 and can increase its interest to 80 per cent by spending $10 million over a period of four years. As of Q1, 2020, approximately $4 million of the $10 million has already been spent. Sibanye Stillwater has certain back-in rights that can bring its interest in the Property back to 51 per cent after such time as Generation Mining has earned its 80-per-cent interest (see the company's press release of July 11, 2019, for more details).
