Northern Vertex Receives Right Of Way Grant Letters From BLM For Powerline, Fiber-Optics And Access Road Construction At Moss Mine In NW Arizona

VANCOUVER , June 7, 2018 /CNW/ - Northern Vertex Mining Corp. (NEE.V) (OTC: NHVCF) (the "Company" or "Northern Vertex") is pleased to announce that Certified Grant Letters for Right of Way ("ROW") for the Powerline, Fiber-Optics and Access Road construction for the Moss Gold and Silver Mine located in N.W. Arizona have been received from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). This is a significant milestone which offers measurable safety and economic benefits for all stakeholders.

Kenneth Berry , President and CEO, stated: "We appreciate the efforts and expertise of our in-house and contractor team that participated in the design of the powerline and road reconstruction, and the Environmental Assessment document. The level of support from our stakeholders, including the public, and the City, County, State and Federal staff and representatives was very encouraging. Within the FONSI (Finding Of No Significant Impact), it is stated that measures to reduce adverse impacts to cultural resources, wildlife/special-status species, and VRM (Visual Resource Management) were incorporated in the design of the Proposed Action. We acknowledge the advice and assistance from the very dedicated personnel at Mohave Electric Co-operative and the BLM Kingman Field Office to incorporate these measures into the design and the Environmental Assessment of the Projects."

The installation of a powerline directly to site to deliver utility power is expected to result in significant operational savings over the lifetime of the mine. The Company's 2015 Feasibility Study had estimated five 750 kW diesel powered generators. At the 5,000 tonne per day processing rate, the diesel generators are estimated to consume roughly 90,000 gallons of diesel per month, or 3,000 gallons per day. Power costs were based on power generation and the overall power rate estimated at $0.20 per kWh assuming a diesel price of US$2.50 per gallon. The Company currently has six generators operating during the Commissioning period as it ramps up to Commercial Production.

Powerline Construction will require the posting of a reclamation bond with the BLM prior to permission to proceed being granted. The Company is proceeding with the acquisition of the bond. The switch from diesel fuel generated power to utility power not only benefits the environment by eliminating greenhouse gas emissions, but the financial savings will be very significant if fuel prices continue to escalate.

The upgrade and maintenance of the Silver Creek Road and the tertiary County Mine Access Road will have immediate and measurable results. The level of safety will be increased substantially for the estimated 100 Moss Mine employees and the many local persons and tourists using the roads for business and recreational purposes. The attendant costs of delays to personnel and truckers, and the engagement of security personnel to direct the one-way traffic control will be eliminated. The direct economic benefits to Northern Vertex also include a reduction in maintenance costs to operational vehicles and those of our suppliers and local community.

Road reconstruction is planned to start immediately to widen the access road to two twelve-foot lanes complete with five-foot shoulders and an additional fifteen-foot wide utility corridor on the west side. Changes to the vertical and horizontal alignment will improve sight distances on curves. Other upgrades include the removal of numerous protruding cobbles and boulders on Silver Creek Road and the placing of a 12 inch thick surface course of crushed mine waste-rock on both roads.

The Moss Mine Feasibility Study; Plan of Operations and Air Quality Permit state the electric power source proposed for all mine and process operations as on-site generators powered by Tier IV diesel engines (the most environmentally advanced engines available today). However, the installation of a direct powerline, would eliminate the need for the diesel gen-sets, resulting in improved air quality by decreasing emissions, and reducing operating costs significantly.
