Video: Trinity One Metals Eyes Silver Tailings Resource at High-Grade Ecuador Mine
As Per Proactive Investors:
Trinity One Metals Ltd. (TSX-V:TOM) CEO Tom Wood joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss the company's flagship Silver-1 project in Ecuador, a historic underground mine that previously produced around one million ounces of silver annually at grades of approximately 927 grams per tonne.
Community engagement has been a priority alongside technical work, with the company opening a local office to strengthen relationships with nearby residents. Initial mapping and sampling have delivered encouraging results, particularly from historic tailings and wastewater areas, with the company now planning to drill the tailings to define a compliant resource. Wood highlighted the potential significance: "Being able to produce from those tailings, really just reprocess them, it's not even production. That should be some fantastic non-dilutive funding for shareholders."
Geophysical surveys, including IP and drone magnetics, are being prioritised ahead of broader drilling to identify higher-value targets and maximise exploration spending.
Beyond Ecuador, assay results from an initial drilling campaign at the Victory project in Mongolia are awaited. Key milestones ahead include geophysical survey completion, tailings drilling, a potential maiden tailings resource and further drilling at Silver-1.
