El Capitan Reports Status of Assay Verification and Extraction Method (bwire)
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (Business Wire) -- El Capitan Precious Metals, Inc. (OTCBB:ECPN) reports:
The Wednesday conference call between the Qualified Party, Richard Daniele, and the three independent assayers was productive. They have developed improvements in the extraction method and those improvements will be reflected in the report which is expected soon.
Chuck Mottley, Company CEO and President, stated: "I am very pleased that the parties involved in the assaying have developed an extraction method in addition to performing the assays. This will give enhanced credibility to the results from Stages 1 and 2 of our drilling program. Having an extraction process as well as verified grades will be an advantage to us as we commence to market the property to a major mining company. I have encouraged them to take the time necessary to complete these processes as the impending results will enhance the value of the property and ultimately the return to the shareholders."
El Capitan Precious Metals, Inc. is an exploration stage company that owns a 40% interest in the El Capitan property located near Capitan, New Mexico as well as a joint venture and 20% ownership of 13 mining claims and other assets known as the C.O.D. mine located near Kingman, Arizona.
