NEW YORK, September 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Prices of safe haven commodities such as gold and silver have rallied this week, as a result of increasing concerns regarding North Korea's recent nuclear test. The Dollar weakened on Tuesday, giving gold and silver futures a strong boost. By Wednesday, good news from Washington caused a slight reversal. The house passed $7.85 billion aid package for Hurricane Harvey victims. According to the Economic Times MCX Gold futures was up 0.02 per cent at 30,229 per 10 gram around 10.25 am (IST), while MCX Silver futures was up 0.08 per cent at Rs 41,455 per 1 kg at around the same time. AbraPlata Resource Corp. (OTC: ABBRF), Golden Minerals Company (NYSE: AUMN), Great Panther Silver Limited (NYSE: GPL), Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd. (NYSE: ASM), Banro Corporation (NYSE: BAA).

Silver prices went through their fourth session of gains on Wednesday, as the U.S. dollar held steady. Silver is a more volatile commodity than gold. According to Apmex, the price of silver is partly depended on large entities and governments, which have substantial buying power and can impact Silver prices through supply and demand. In a case the government makes a large silver purchase, the demand for that product could affect silver markets immediately.

AbraPlata Resource Corp. (OTCQB: ABBRF) is also listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the ticker symbol 'ABRA'. Yesterday the company announced that it has completed the definitive documentation necessary to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Minera Cerro Bayo SA (Cerro Bayo), a privately held Argentine company. The transaction was originally announced in the Company's news release dated July 12, 2017. Cerro Bayo owns certain mineral rights that, as a result of a long-standing border dispute between two neighbouring provinces in northwestern Argentina, overlap and potentially conflict with the Company's mineral rights to its Diablillos Ag-Au project. The acquisition of the potentially conflicting mineral rights through the acquisition of Cerro Bayo means that the Company will retain its title to the Diablillos Ag-Au project regardless of the ultimate outcome of the provincial border dispute.

Terms of the transaction call for the Company to pay a total of US$3,325,000 in cash and issue 500,000 common shares of the Company to the sellers of Cerro Bayo in instalments over a five year period. The transaction is subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange.

Additional details respecting the provincial border dispute and the potentially conflicting titles to the Diablillos property can be found in the Company's news release dated July 12, 2017 and the Filing Statement dated March 1, 2017, copies of which are filed under the Company's profile on SEDAR (http://www.sedar.com [https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=HkLwftUYK4E6ntXiGfQlBHgmR3KPeyuqj-ULOhoX8vxrNXjoTFCfWNf6WPD_ssEjGHLwqKY2XjJKS8rTFiwXNQ== ] ).
