    Some thoughts on today's news release.

    Proven reserves at Relief Canyon are 0.024 opt (Proven + Probable = 0.021 opt)
    ~83% average gold recovery for crushed and agglomerated material

    0.024 opt * 83% = 0,01992 opt

    Once the radial stacker of 8,000 tons per day will be replaced by the 16,000 tons per day stacker beginning of November, we are according to my estimation near Feasibility Study levels. Good things to come imo...

    Interesting take on the possible outcome of the US election (starts at 1:35). I give Eric Sprott credit for expressing his opinion in these times...

    Galena drill results continue to be promising. Cosala is rather disappointing.

    Nice gain today. We need the repaired stacker at Relief Canyon asap (first week of Nov according to the CEO). Once Relief Caynon is in commercial production end of the year the share price will be much higher for sure imo.

    Mining legend Pierre Lassonde is still bullish on USAS: "They have the Galena district, they have some of the best silver assets in the US" (44:50 min)

    All Indicator lines used as dynamic support and resistance, that change reliance on the price and time.
    When the price reach and meet one of the indicator, the trend stop, and
    new trend begin.
    the system show the next price target at high probability(no 100%).

    USAS:
    the price stop on the EMA (orange) and on the halfway indicator(blue line).
    As long as the price above the EMA (orange line) and above the halfway indicator,
    the target is the high target indicator(green line) and the trend is bullish.

    New company presentation available as today is the H.C. Wainwright Mining Conference. Finally the Stacker has arrived at Relief Canyon. 2021 will be a great year for USAS shareholders imo...
    • Radial stacker has arrived on site and ramp-up to commercial production is expected by the end of Q4-2020
    Concerning Cosala the following is of interest:

    - 2019 production of 0.6 million silver ounces
    • Working towards restarting operation
    - Over 1 million silver ounces expected in 2021 assuming successful restart

    - Potential to increase production to 2.5 - 3.0 million ounces in 2022

    Some promising developments to re-start the Cosala Silver mine in Mexico...

    AMLO orders to review negotiations in Cosalá

    The aspiring candidate for Morena for the governorship of Sinaloa, Rubén Rocha Moya, is accused before the President of Mexico of trying to harm the miners of the San Rafael mine for alleged personal interests

    BY: Drafting 24 Hours

    - December 2, 2020 1:21 pm

    The Senator for Sinaloa and candidate for the candidacy for the Morena party for governor in the 2021 elections, Rubén Rocha Moya, was accused of belonging to a group of power that prevents the salary and labor improvements of the workers of the San Rafael mine in Cosalá, Sinaloa.

    This morning during the morning press conference of the president of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, evidence and a call for help from the Cosalá miners were presented to him, after the San Rafael mine has been closed since January for a union dispute.

    Given these events, the President acknowledged that he is aware of the issue, but he thought it was already resolved and immediately requested the Secretary of Labor, Luisa María Alcalde, to initiate talks with the Mining Union, the workers of Cosalá and the Canadian company Americas Gold & Silver, in charge of exploiting the San Rafael mine.

    This mine has about 300 workers and more than 327 families depend on the sources of employment that emanate from it and it is this group of workers together with their leaders, who accuse Senator Rubén Rocha Moya before the President of Mexico of being part of a power group with interests against that of the mine workers.

    The miners assure that they do not have any type of medical security, they receive salaries of 250 pesos for 12 hours of work; In addition, the Canadian company is accused before the Mexican authorities of polluting the environment near the mine and of evading taxes by not clearly reporting the amount of minerals that it takes out of it.

    The miners assure that those who impede negotiations between the company and the union is a group of power in which the names of Senator Rubén Rocha Moya, former Undersecretary Ricardo Peralta; Carlos Pavón Campos, deputy of the PRI and the union leader of the CTM, Javier Villarreal from Sonora, who have some kind of dark interest and in which it is intended to harm the miners.

    As part of the tests, a photograph of a video taken on November 6 in the restaurant of the Hotel Lucerna was shown, in which Senator Rubén Rocha Moya and former Undersecretary Ricardo Peralta are shown in which they would be talking about the issue of the mine San Rafael.

    Leaders of the Cosalá mining union assured that it was after this meeting between Rocha Moya and Peralta that the former undersecretary told them not to continue with their requests for improvements and that he, together with the team of lawyers, would negotiate with the Americans Gold & Silver company , but the favorable answers are still missing.

    After listening to the request for help from the Cosalá miners sent through the journalist Urbano Barrera of the Ovaciones newspaper, President López Obrador was surprised because he thought that since the problem was solved, he reported that Luisa María Alcalde will be in charge of seeing the topic.

    “We are going to ask Luisa María Alcalde to see the issue, if the miners and people of Cosalá presented it to me, when I was in Tamazula, Durango, which is relatively close (to Cosalá) and it will be seen. I thought it had already been resolved, but let's review it.

    “It is a matter that has to do with union differences, we must seek conciliation there. We are going to do it so that you can tell the workers that the undersecretary of labor is going to attend to it. Napoleón Sánchez Urrutia has Covid and I hope it goes well, like all those who get sick from this terrible pandemic, but we are going to see it, ”said Andrés Manuel López Obrador.

    Cosalá is located at the entrance of what is called the Golden Triangle, which is the area with the highest production of cocaine, marijuana and other drugs that the Sinaloa Cartel mostly sells and the miners want to keep their jobs so as not to see themselves in the dilemma of having to work with criminal groups.

    Maybe we will get a re-start at the Cosala Silver mine in the not too distant future...

    A call to the President from Cosalá
    Carlos Pavon
    2020/12/07

    The opinions expressed by the columnists are independent and do not necessarily reflect the point of view of 24 HOURS.

    Kidnapped for practically a year, this is what the San Rafael Cosalá mine looks like in Sinaloa. It was on January 26 when a group of miners denounced the irruption by force by supporters of Napoleón Gómez Urrutia. In the wild, they say, they came to seize the entrances to the mine and from that day on, any worker has been prevented from entering. This is how this story was born and not how they want the President to believe.

    A few days ago, at AMLO's morning conference, a reporter used his right to express himself to bring up the subject of the mine. With total ignorance, he assured that it was taken by the workers adhered to the National Union of Mining-Metallurgical and Metal-Mechanic Trade Unions of Mexico, to UNASIM, said that it was a group of power that prevented the restart of operations and which was even made up of legislators and former public officials.

    He requested the microphone to ask a question, however, he ended up reading practically the script of a poorly told story that was missing the truth at all times. It is worth mentioning that today photos of the same reporter in different assemblies made by those related to Napito, carried out outside the mine facilities in Cosalá, circulate on social networks; It is also important to say that this site is only accessible to supporters of Senator de Morena.

    It is evident that today they are trying to deceive the President with envoys, trying to make him believe a story that he knows well, since the real miners approached him to ask for his help and to denounce the robbery.

    It was on February 22 that the President listened to them on his way to Durango and asked them about the ownership of the Collective Labor Agreement, since he assumed that if the strike was started by Napito, then it belonged to him, however, it remained more than evident that it was an invasion, since the CCT was in the hands of another union.

    In that same meeting, the miners were clear in telling him that there had never been any problems between the company and the union and that the mine should be opened in order not to lose jobs.

    Today Napito's cynicism reached the President once again, and there are those who say that it was already easy for him to deceive him and see his face, first by hiding that he is Canadian and thus accepting a seat violating the Constitution, then by assuring him that he is a miner when there is no record attesting to this fact. We know that the President will take charge of this case and will not be left with a version that lacks reality.

    It will investigate why the mine is closed, it will inquire why Napito asked the company for several million dollars to reopen the mine, a request that was denied by the businessmen as it was classified as extortion, it will investigate who are the guardians of the mine and why to say about the miners carry long guns.

    There is much to say about Cosalá, but more to be clarified, for example why the Federal Board of Conciliation and Arbitration in the midst of anomalies and irregularities decided to carry out the recount for the ownership of the CCT, why it validated a list full of infiltrators.

    Mr. President, we cannot allow Cosalá to tell the same story of Cananea, Sombrerete and Taxco, mining communities that were invaded. The closure of a mine at the request, whim or personal benefit, implies loss of jobs, low quality of life of workers, loss of investment, it is a blow to the treasury, because if there is no production there is no payment of taxes, it falls in marginalization and poverty for the locality.

    Looking at gold miners to hedge against rampant inflation in 2021 - David Erfle
    Kitco News Friday December 18, 2020
    https://www.kitco.com/news/2020-12-...st-rampant-inflation-in-2021-David-Erfle.html

    What three companies do you like the most in 2021 and why?

    Junior GOP – Americas Gold & Silver (USAS): The company anticipates full production to be reached at its recently completed Relief Canyon Gold Mine in Nevada by the end of April, setting USAS up for a strong 2021. The company also has big leverage to the silver price, once operations can re-commence at its Cosalá operations in Mexico, along with ramping up operations at its 60% owned Galena Complex in Idaho. If USAS can deliver on all three projects in 2021, the stock will see multiple market re-rates.

    Moving up probably in anticipation of commercial production at Relief Canyon in the coming days...

    The NPV of the Relief Canyon Gold project is around $400 Million with the current price of gold. Current market cap of USAS is $385 Million. As a result the two silver assets are not adequately reflected in the share price imo.

    At Relief Canyon, commercial production is expected within the next two weeks, due to certain key personnel for the project being unable to remain onsite as a result of contracting COVID-19 and winter weather impacts.
