シルバーマウンテン社、ペルーのレリキアス鉱山近郊でのサンプリング調査で高品位銀の発見結果を発表

By

-- シルバー・マウンテン・リソーシズ(AGMR.TO)は月曜日、ペルー中部にあるレリキアス鉱山近郊の既開発鉱床探査において、高品位の銀鉱石が発見されたと発表した。 レリキアス鉱山から北へ2.1キロメートルに位置するセグリダードSE鉱脈の中央部550メートル区間におけるチャネルサンプリングの結果、平均真鉱脈幅0.45メートルで、加重平均品位2,003グラム/トン(g/t)の銀が検出された。同社は声明の中で、これらの結果は、セグリダードSE鉱脈および同一構造系に属する近隣の他の鉱脈において、高品位銀鉱化作用が走向方向に継続している可能性を示唆していると述べた。 シルバー・マウンテンは現在、レリキアス鉱山の生産拠点建設予定地周辺の地域を評価している。 「これらの結果は、鉱山近傍の既開発地探査に注力するという当社の戦略が、規律正しく費用対効果の高いものであることを改めて証明するものです。既存のインフラに近い地表で高品位の銀鉱化帯を特定できたことは、レリキアス地区の全体的な価値提案を強化するものであり、計画されている生産再開に向けて資源基盤を拡大するという当社の長期目標を支えるものです」と、最高経営責任者のアルバロ・エスピノサ氏は述べています。

FirstService Price Target Cut to US$200.00 at Stifel Canada

Stifel Canada cut its price target on the shares of FirstService (FSV.TO, FSV) shares to US$200.00, from US$215.00 even though the company reported "solid" first quarter results.Analyst Daryl Young, who is maintaining a buy rating on the shares, says overall, the macro environment remains tepid which is stymying a more "fulsome" re-acceleration of results, but FirstService should still be able to grind out mid to single digit growth (plus upside from tuck-ins and potential restoration storm-revenues)."We view the stock as trading at a trough valuation on trough estimates."Price: $199.36, Change: $-0.68, Percent Change: -0.34%

US Natural Gas Update: Futures Rise Despite Bearish Storage Data, Mild Weather

US natural gas futures rose in midday trading on Monday as escalating geopolitical tensions and supply disruptions in key LNG markets lifted global price expectations.The front-month Henry Hub contract and the continuous contract both rose by 2.54% to $2.59 per million British thermal units.US natural gas futures stayed near an 18-month low, pressured by rising inventories and mild weather, according to Trading Economics.Storage levels climbed to 8% above seasonal norms for the week ended April 24, up from 7% a week earlier, while the Energy Information Administration reported a 103 billion cubic feet injection for the week ended April 17, above forecasts, last year's 77 Bcf build, and the five-year average of 64 Bcf, Trading Economics said.In the US, natural gas prices had faced recent pressure, with prompt-month Henry Hub futures falling last week alongside declines across the forward curve, as production and demand remained largely steady, according to NRG Energy.US supply fundamentals were steady, with production near 106.5 Bcf/d and demand around 102 Bcf/d, while weather-driven heating demand fluctuated and LNG feedgas eased, NRG Energy said.Imports from Canada declined to 4.7 Bcf/d from 5.5 Bcf/d the previous week, NRG Energy added.Mild weather is expected to curb demand over the course of the week. "Mild weather continues to suppress broad demand, with only residual heating load in northern markets and limited early cooling demand nationally," Pinebrook Energy Advisors said in a daily note.According to NatGasWeather, the Rockies and Northern Plains are expected to be mild to cool over the next few days as weather systems move through, bringing showers and highs in the 50s-60s.The rest of the US is projected to be pleasant to warm, with highs in the 60s to 80s, except for hotter conditions in Texas, where temperatures will reach the 90s, NatGasWeather said. Cooler air is also forecast to spread across the Midwest, Ohio Valley, and Northeast later in the week, extending into Texas and the South, with highs generally in the 60s to 70s and locally in the 80s.Overall, demand is expected to be moderate over the next seven days, according to NatGasWeather.Meanwhile, in the Middle East, Iran has reportedly proposed easing restrictions on transit through the Strait of Hormuz if the US lifts economic and military pressure and agrees to end hostilities, while postponing discussions on its nuclear program.
