Newsfile Corp.
Mon, November 16, 2020, 10:30 AM EST·2 min read
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 16, 2020) - Starcore International Mines Ltd. (TSX: SAM) (OTCQB: SHVLF) ("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 Mexican 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."

Starcore Drills 10.25 metres of 65.17 g/t Au and 128.26 g/t Ag
Vancouver, B.C. – Starcore International Mines Ltd. (the “Company”) announces that it has completed drill hole 31-79 in area 31 at its San Martin Mine in Queretaro, Mexico. This hole intercepted a zone of limestone breccia followed by manto mineralization. High grade manto mineralization with visible gold was recovered between 48.65 and 58.9 meters. The weighted average grade of this 10.25 meter wide intercept is 65.17 g/t gold with 128.26 g/t silver. Prior to the high grade intercept the limestone breccia contained elevated silver values over 10 meters including a 2 meter section grading 1.60 g/t Au and 105 g/t Ag between 42.25 and 44.25 meters.
The intercept is within 15 meters of existing workings. Mining crews are expected to arrive at this drill hole intercept some time this week in order to evaluate the dimensions of the mineralization.
Drill core is assayed on site in a laboratory that successfully reconciles doré and plant samples. Assay values within the intercept have not been cut. Within this intersection, 7 of the 13 samples graded over 25 grams per tonne gold and numerous pieces of core were seen to contain visible gold. The manto mineralization at San Martin has produced samples of this grade in the past.
“This is the best drill hole in our history at the mine”, said Robert Eadie, President and CEO of Starcore.
The Company also reports production results at the San Martin Mine for the fiscal 2016 third quarter, ending April 30, 2016.
During Q3, a total of 74,070 tonnes were milled at an average grade of 1.66 g/t gold and 13 g/t silver resulting in the production of 3,476 gold equivalent ounces. Mill recoveries averaged 83.5% for gold and 46.9% for silver. Equivalent gold ounce calculation is based on the average gold:silver ratio of 79:1 during the quarter.
The depletion of the 6-101 stope in January of 2016 resulted in difficulties in February meeting production targets; however, the development of the 6-112 stope has enabled the mine to return to profitability during March and April.
David Gunning, P.Eng., a director of the Company and Chief Operating Officer, is the Company’s qualified person on the project as required under NI 43-101and has prepared the technical information contained in this press release.

Thanks for the update Troy, but just as I suspected, no clear answer on buyback! I asked the same and got the same response. I didn't ask to know exactly what day they plan to buy back, but the share price is down 60% since they announced a dividend. You would think that now is just about as good a time to buy back, but I guess not. And as for his comment about the gold sector being flat, lol!!! All gold stocks have been flying high for the last 2 weeks and only SAM is flat.
Time to put your money where your mouth is management!

IR knows nothing or is not saying anything of value. A couple of weeks ago, I asked IR why the company was not buying back shares at these ridiculous levels (market cap of $17mm) and the answer was "we don't know and we are just as frustrated as our investors with the share price".
Conclusion: Total BS!!! If they are frustrated with the share price, they should take action and buy back shares (as per their announcement). This would surely bring the price back up. So my question is...are they full of sh**...or do they have no money to buy back shares? I'm down 60% on this stock. Fundamentals are there (profitability, dividend...), so something doesn't add up. My gut tells me to take my losses and walk away because I smell scam, but yet I choose to wait and put my faith in management delivering on the share buyback.

My average is in the low 20s, and I'm also not pleased with this freefall, 1 cent at a time.
All fundamentals look positive (profitable, dividend, share buyback...), yet here we are tanking on a consistent basis.
Current market cap is $15mm, which is peanuts, and yet the company is not buying back shares. Trust me, if they were buying, we would know! First of all, insider buying has to be reported. Second, we would know, because demand would exceed supply which would drive price up.
It's very simple: the company is not buying shares back even at this level ($15mm market cap). So my question is, WHY???
KaiserSoze
10 years ago
Are we going to $0??? Spoke with IR yesterday. Eadie apologized for the share price. When I asked him why the company was not buying shares yet, he had no answer. That is clearly not good!!!
The market cap is $15mm, which is ridiculously low. 10% dividend, cash flow positive and promisses of buying back $1mm worth of shares.
Something simply doesn't add up here. We are either being scammed, or this is the best bargain out there!
My gust tells me we are being scammed, but I have no proof. WHY IS THE COMPANY NOT BUYING BACK SHARES AT $0.12????
No explanation = no good.

Troy, thanks for the update. Their actions will speak shortly. If they truly believe the stock is undervalued (which I agree by the way), and they have the excess cash at hand, then I guess it becomes a no brainer for them to buy back shares at this level, which will slowly bring the price up. I must say, I am skeptical!
Meal deals are very rare and the market usually gets it right. Is there more to the story than we know (i.e. reserves are done)?
