Update from Stockgroup........the mine is ready, and production will start vrey shortly (according to CVR, they have already begun initial operations as of this week)

HIGH GRADE MEXICO MINE NEARING PRODUCTION

Guardian Enterprises Ltd. (GUD-VSE) Consolidated Viscount Resources
(CVR-VSE)reports the mill has been primed to
begin production of the gold/silver deposit on the Las Coloradas
Concession, Durango, Mexico.

The Las Coloradas Concession consists of 12,000 acres hosting a 5 km
long shear zone, approximately 2.5 metres wide with an indicated depth
of at least 700 metres. High grade vertical ore shoots occur along the
shear. Thirteen mines were operating in the period from 1938 to 1940
along the 5 km structure until a major accident on the "El Hogar" mine
virtually terminated all activity. "El Hogar" records show production
grades as high as 2.96 oz gold and 18 kg silver per ton.

Five old mines have been reopened and adits driven to reach ore shoots.
These include the Santa Anita, Contrabando, Piedra Bola and Escandalo
adits and the Confital shaft, located near the site of the former El
Hogar shaft. The Confital shaft will be excavated to a total depth of
170 metres and is currently down 100 metres.

Water and power lines have been extended to the Confital shaft site.
Access roads have been built and graveled, along with concrete drainage
systems and retaining walls to ensure year round use.

Ore has been encountered in the four adits and is being stockpiled at
the mill site for easy access. A recent ore shoot encountered in the
Santa Anita adit graded 16 gr/t gold and 1,147 gr/t silver over 2.5
metres in the face as well as 2 gr/t gold and 160 gr/t silver in the
wall. This ore shoot is 50 feet long on strike and at least 130 feet
above the adit floor. Several hundred tons of lower grade ore has been
removed from the Contrabando adit and stockpiled. This ore grades 6
gr/t gold and 360 gr/t silver over 1.5-2 metres, even though the actual
working face has not yet been reached.
The 100 ton per day mill has been upgraded to operate continuously at
full capacity.

Guardian and its associate partner, Consolidated Viscount Resources
Ltd., jointly own 31.85% interest in Las Coloradas with an option to
increase this to 57.35%. Visit them at stockgroup.com

Should finally get things moving
