Hi Stephen
I still have a lot of followers that have invested in Excelsior. The shareprice seems at a bottom and I just read that Goldman Sachs is very optimistic about copper.
Do you still believe that Excelsior is going tob e succesful and if yes why? It is a long time that Excelsior has been in the news. How is this well stimulation programme progressing?
What can be the catalyst fort he shareprice of Excelsior in your view? Is this still for 2024?

Hi Walter,
Yes we remain confident that Excelsior will be successful. Working with Nuton at the Johnson Camp Mine continues to move forward at a good pace. There is a lot of value in the deal we did with them and are excited to see it going forward. Several catalyst on this project are expected in Q1 or H1 this year; the release of metallurgical column test results and other metallurgical testing, and subject to these results being good, the project moving to Stage 2, which would provide us additional non-dilute cash and a significant reduction in costs, making more money available for well stimulation and Gunnison.
On the well stimulation, all approvals have been received, but we would like to use the cash from Nuton Stage 2 to fund this work, so subject to Nuton moving to Stage 2, we would commence the well stimulation program towards the end of H1.
We have been marketing (e.g. the recent Vancouver Round-up conference and about 20 or so virtual meetings the last few months). More marketing is coming up, but unfortunately no significant news flow until Nuton release some results.
There is tremendous value here, it’s just a matter of us getting some of these things done in H1 to start realizing that value.
Thanks for your continued support.
Kind Regards,
Stephen Twyerould

Thank you, Buddy. Yeah, I was serious and I have to admit it's a stupid mistake, I was being too optimistic when the CO2 issue first came up. I talked to JJ when he was IR and the guy kinda lied to me but I don't want to blame him, it's my mistake.
Thank God I've made money from my other investments so my wife won't kill me for the $2MM loss on paper:). I'm prepared for the worst, even this company go bully up, I can still survive.
I won't sell any of my shares b4 the commercial production starts.

Excelsior Mining Provides Update on Mining Activities at Gunnison and JCM Copper Projects
Excelsior Mining Corp. (TSX: MIN) (FSE: 3XS) (OTCQB: EXMGF) ("Excelsior" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on the mining camp encompassed by the Gunnison Copper Project (Gunnison), the Johnson Camp Copper Mine (JCM) and Strong and Harris, located in Cochise County, southeastern Arizona.
Nuton - JCM Update
In addition to the favorable drilling results which were previously announced on September 14, 2023 and October 16, 2023, Nuton related activities are progressing according to plan and remain on budget and on schedule. Nuton has begun running leaching tests with the NutonTM technologies.
Should Nuton elect to move to Stage 2 of the project, then construction is anticipated to commence in H1 2024.
Gunnison Copper Project Update
Additional well stimulation modelling has recently been completed, which supports the results of prior modelling, indicating well stimulation has the potential to greatly improve flow, connectivity and permeability, thereby improving sweep efficiency and gas bubble removal. See October 18th 2022 News for prior modelling.
Contractors have been identified for certain aspects of the well stimulation trails and long-lead item equipment has been acquired or ordered.
Trials are subject to work plan approvals and additional working capital.
Mining Camp
Excelsior is taking a broader and more integrated view of the entire mining camp under its control, including the potential for a large centralized processing facility taking advantage of the recent advances in sulfide leaching technology, like that provided by Nuton, combined with more traditional mining approaches like large open pit mining.
Well stimulation at the Gunnison Copper Project remains the primary focus; however, the results of Excelsior's review may indicate favorable economics for open pit mining of Excelsior assets.
The resource estimate the Gunnison Copper Project compares favorably to other proposed open pit mining operations in Arizona in terms of grade and tonnage.
The concept of a larger, centralized processing facility being fed by traditional mining activities would benefit the nearby Strong and Harris project, which is located only 2 miles (3.2 km) north of Johnson Camp.
"There are relatively few large copper development projects in safe jurisdictions around the world that have our permitting track record and near-term production potential. That makes us very excited by the future of our mining camp. JCM, Strong and Harris and Gunnison have the combined potential for over 150 million pounds of copper per year assuming full production ramp up is achieved, which would make Excelsior a top 10 copper producer in Arizona," states Stephen Twyerould, President and CEO.
