PHOENIX, April 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tombstone Exploration Corporation (OTCQB: TMBXF), a fully reporting U.S. based mining company, announced today it has shipped approximately five tons of carbon that carried the Gold and Silver to Metals Research in Kimberly, Idaho for final processing of the minerals. The process is expected to take 7-10 days, then the ore will be sent to Metalor for refining.

The leach has been running 24/7 and continues as crushed rock and leach material are loaded onto the pad. This is the second shipment of processed ore for 2022 and it is expected to have bi-monthly deliveries for refining ore.

The results of the processed material from March 17, 2022 produced 341.98 oz of ore which delivered 70.42 oz of Au and 63.77 oz of Ag.

The Bonanza Mine property includes the Harquahala and Golden Eagle mines, located approximately eight miles south of Salome, Arizona. The project totals 2,656 acres and has significant potential for gold and silver production in multiple phases moving forward. The Bonanza Mine is located where the Prolific Walker Lane and the Sonoran Geosyncline overlap with likely extensions of Carlin Trend and Mesquite-style mineralization generating Arizona's biggest richest deposits.
