Source Exploration Corp. is pleased to report that step-out drilling at the Santa Cruz target at the Las Minas project in Mexico has intersected high-grade mineralization along-strike from that previously discovered in hole LM-11-SC-45, within the larger halo of copper-gold mineralization at Las Minas. As previously reported, hole LM-SC-45 returned an intercept of 15.89 grams per tonne gold (g/t Au) 12.98 grams per tonne silver (g/t Ag) and 2.25 percent copper (% Cu) over 10.0 metres. Step-out drilling has returned significant gold values as well as some of the highest grade silver and copper intercepts recorded to date. The higher grade mineralization appears to be closely associated with skarn-type alteration with high magnetite content ranging up to 90% by volume. A detailed magnetic geophysical survey has been initiated in an effort to better define future drill targets.
