SNS Silver Retains Exploration and Development Expertise for Emerald Lake Gold Project
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Nov 30, 2009 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX News Network) --
SNS Silver Corporation ("SNS" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: SNS) is pleased to announce the addition of Stephen Mlot, P.Eng and Phillip Brown, P.Geo, two highly regarded consultants to manage future exploration programs at its newly acquired Emerald Lake gold project.
Stephen Mlot is a principal Northern Nickel Mining and was employed by Noramco Mining as chief engineer in the late 1980's at Emerald Lake.
The company is rapidly expediting its first phase drill program and is thrilled to have secured management with historical knowledge of the project.
David Greenway President of SNS States "We are especially fortunate as Steve's past experience at Emerald lake will be invaluable to the company as we seek to expedite and initiate the most effective, and rewarding first phase exploration program. Steve has waited nearly two decades to resume exploration on this project and we certainly share in his enthusiasm"
Stephen G. Mlot, P.Eng,
Mr. Mlot is President/CEO of Carlisle Goldfields Limited, and has been the Manager of Engineering Services for N.A.R. Environmental Consultants Inc since June 1999. From October 1996 until January 1999 he was President of Patricia Mining Corp., and a Director from October 1996 to September 2002.

Mr. Mlot is also a Director of Carlisle Goldfields Limited, and Clarion Mining Corporation. His experience in the mining industry has been focused on project evaluation and feasibility analysis, mine planning, mine development and operations, and mine-site construction.
Stephen Mlot states: "I have always coveted the Emerald Lake project and held the belief that the property was host to a much larger resource. It was with heavy hearts that we were forced to abandon exploration of the project in the late 80's due to a plunging gold market and I am most excited to have the opportunity to re-initiate exploration with the team at SNS Silver"
