Starcore repays $4.5 million bonds
Vancouver, British Columbia – Starcore International Mines Ltd. (TSX:SAM) (“Starcore” or the
“Company”) announces that it has repaid outstanding secured bonds in the aggregate principal amount of
CDN$4.5 million (the “Bonds”) (see news release s of November 17, 2015 and November 11, 2016. ). The
Bonds were to mature on May 12, 2017. As provided for by the terms of the Bonds, Starcore elected an

of Cdn$178,520.55. After this Bond repayment, the Company has an approximate cash balance of Cdn$10.1

the Company. “Our investors and financiers have been exceptional partners for Starcore and have supported
