Vancouver, B.C. – Starcore International Mines Ltd. (TSX: SAM) ( “Starcore” or the “Company”)
announces production results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 / 2021, ended October 31, 2020, at
its San Martin Mine (“San Martin”) in Queretaro, Mexico.
“In spite of the devastating pandemic which has hit Mexico very hard, our operations are ongoing without
major issues. This is mainly due to the discipline of our work force , our management team’s commitment to
the health of our workers and the respect for the rules and measures taken by the Mexic an Government,”
reported Salvador Garcia, Chief Operating Officer of the company. “Even though the grades during the
quarter decreased, the ounces produced have been delivering a good margin of profit for reasons beyond just
the higher gold and silver prices . The measures adopted in the last year in our operations and the cost
optimization in all areas, including administration, have resulted in financial improvements reflected in more
resources to increase the exploration in unexplored areas by development and drilling, creating good
expectations in the short term.”
