(TSXV: SVE) (OTC Pink: SLVRF) (FSE: BRK1) (\"Silver One\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to provide an update of its metallurgical testing on the historic leach pads at its Candelaria project in Nevada. New results show that up to 75% of the total silver contained in composite samples from the old leach-pads (an increase of more than 47%-79% over historic production recoveries) can potentially be recovered by reprocessing the heaps using very fine grinding in combination with microbubble technology. This testing was done at First Majestic Silver Corp.'s La Parrilla Mine laboratory in Durango, Mexico. Metallurgical work continues with ongoing efforts being focused on evaluating the economics of recovering gold and silver by either high-pressure grinding roll (\"HPGR\") or by very fine milling combined with microbubble technology. Greg Crowe, President and CEO, commented; \"The results of the metallurgical testing done to date at Candelaria have been encouraging. Improved and proven technologies such as HPGR grinding and microbubble techniques have made vast improvements in the recoveries and costs of silver production. Our metallurgical studies continue with the aim of working towards a comparative cost analysis in Q3 or Q4 of 2019.\"At Penasco Quemado, the Company completed a short program consisting of 974 meters of diamond drilling in five holes. The goal of the program was 3-fold. First was to test the potential down-dip and along strike continuity of the silver-manganese mineralization identified in the area of the historic resource that was outlined by Silvermex Resources Ltd. in 2006 (see the Company's news release of Sept 27, 2016). Second was to investigate the source of the very high zinc and lead in soil anomalies located along strike to the southeast of the historic resource area. The third goal was to test geochemical and geophysical anomalies in the west central part of the property. Assay results indicate the mineralized silver-manganese system does extend outside the area of the historic resource. For example, manganese, zinc and lead values up to 3% Mn, 0.24% Zn and 0.09% Pb were encount...
