The San Antonio Zinc vein system is located 4km southeast of IMPACT's operating Guadalupe
Processing Plant and on trend with the Cuchara mine vein system.
The increase in the zinc price led to
testing the extent and continuity of San Antonio's known mineralized system which was last explored in
2007.
A total of seventeen holes were drilled to test the system at depth and along strike of historic mine
workings and previous drilling.
Significant San Antonio zinc results are listed below.

Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements
This IMPACT News Release may contain certain "forward-looking" statements and information relating
to IMPACT that is based on the beliefs of IMPACT management, as well as assumptions made by and
information currently available to IMPACT management. Forward-looking information is often, but not
always, identified by the use of words such as "seek", "anticipate", "plan", "continue", "planned",
"expect", "project", "predict", "potential", "targeting", "intends", "believe", "potential", and similar
expressions, or describes a "goal", or variation of such words and phrases or state that certain actions,
events or results "may", "should", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved. Such
statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the expected use of proceeds of the
Private Placement.
Such forward-looking information involves known and unknown risks and assumptions, including with
respect to, without limitations, exploration and development risks, expenditure and financing
requirements, title matters, operating hazards, metal prices, political and economic factors, competitive
factors, general economic conditions, relationships with vendors and strategic partners, governmental
regulation and supervision, seasonality, technological change, industry practices, and one-time events.
Should any one or more risks or uncertainties materialize or change, or should any underlying
assumptions prove incorrect, actual results and forward-looking statements may vary materially from
those described herein. IMPACT does not assume the obligation to update any forward-looking
statement.
The Company's decision to place a mine into production, expand a mine, make other production related
decisions or otherwise carry out mining and processing operations, is largely based on internal non-
public Company data and reports based on exploration, development and mining work by the
Company's geologists and engineers. The results of this work are evident in the discovery and building
of multiple mines for the Company and in the track record of mineral production and financial returns of
the Company since 2006. Under NI 43-101 the Company is required to disclose that it has not based its
production decisions on NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource or reserve estimates, preliminary
economic assessments or feasibility studies, and historically such projects have increased uncertainty
and risk of failure.
