Clifton Mining Company (OTCBB: CFTN) (Clifton) - "2nd Quarter 2022 Update Report"

AMERICAN FORK, Utah, July 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -

Production - Clifton Mining Company has received the production report from Desert Hawk Gold Corp. During the three (3) months ending on May 31, 2022, Desert Hawk sold a total of 765 ounces of gold and a total of 767 ounces of silver recovered from the leach pad. Desert Hawk also crushed 38,904 tons of ore during that same three-month period, adding 324 recoverable ounces of gold to the leach pad.  They estimate that at the end of May, there was 3,713 recoverable ounces of gold still on the leach pad.

We would note, as we had in previous releases, that Desert Hawk's production has been constrained due to their nearing the limits of the current permitted mining area.  Desert Hawk started working on their extension permit more than two years ago and they currently anticipate receiving their expansion permit later this year. Assuming that occurs, we anticipate production to quickly ramp up to the levels obtained prior to the current constraints, in addition to the readily accessible outcrops along the extension strike.  Clifton has a considerable equity interest in Desert Hawk Mining, owning more than 5.8 million shares. 

Exploration and Development - In addition to Desert Hawk's project, Clifton has several other mineral outcrops on its large property block, each with the potential to be a stand-alone project. Management has been reviewing potential exploration and development targets and is in the process of hiring a consulting geologist to provide updated reports.  Please see the "Property Reports" section on the Company's website at https://www.cliftonmining.com for more information on the properties.  For information on some of the mineral resources, please see section 6 of the "Update of the Behre Dolbear Report", under the "Shear Zone Summary Report," also located under the Property Reports section of the Company's website.

Clifton trades on the OTC Markets under the symbol: "CFTN".  For phone contact, please feel free to call Dr. Ken Friedman, President, at 303-642-3134.
