Aztec Minerals Corp. announces that it has completed the first 7 core holes totaling 1,607 metres (m) of the current 3,000 m, 11-hole Phase 3 core drilling program at the 100%-owned Cervantes Property in Sonora, Mexico.
Fortunately, we have had great success with these three diamond holes, with intersections that confirm the prolongation of NS and NE-SW structures previously cut in the last drilling campaign of 2009.
“Now that our partnership with BHP is focusing on a priority group of copper projects, the extensive data, relationships and additional targets we’ve generated within the broader EFA area can also be leveraged and pursued by Riverside.”
Kootenay Silver’s President and CEO Mr. James McDonald stated “Each new batch of results continues to justify our excitement for the Columba Project. We are seeing both the D and F Vein expanding with additional drilling and are planning additional work to evaluate the many high priority targets that remain undrilled.”
Zacatecas Chief Executive Officer and a Director of Zacatecas, Bryan Slusarchuk, states, “The technical team continues to execute efficiently on our silver projects. We have experienced early significant drilling success in two new areas of the property outside of the known Panuco resource with multiple good hits at both Panuco North and El Cristo.”
With each progressive stage of reconnaissance drilling along previously untested trends we are uncovering excellent indications that mineralization continues to the southeast and in parallel trends to our Main Zone”, commented CEO, Brodie Sutherland.
“The El Cuervo system is the third major gold-silver target discovered at the Amalia Project, with multiple wide and high-grade drill results returned from the 22 hole El Cuervo program. With Amalia Central, California and El Cuervo targets all demonstrating resource potential, the growing scale of the Amalia Project is apparent.”
Capitan’s CEO, Alberto Orozco, states: “We are very pleased to show the continuity at depth of both grade and thickness of the Jesus Maria silver vein. We look forward to upcoming holes which will not only continue to test the extension of Jesus María, but of the Gully Fault Ag-Au zone as well. These two higher-grade silver zones in conjunction with the JM North, JM South and San Rafael targets, highlight the potential for significant scale at the Cruz de Plata Silver Project.”
Lawrence Page. Q. C. President, said: “Cerro las Minitas is aptly named in Mexico as the “Hill of Mines” and is located in the Faja de Plata or “Silver Belt” of northern Mexico where numerous silver and base metal mines have been developed and are currently operating.”
Dr. Craig Gibson said: “While our analysis of the LiDAR data has not yet been completed, we are delighted with the results to date. Structural features and small mine workings are clearly visible in the data, and we feel that it will greatly aid in the delineation of important structural trends as part of the process to identify drill targets for a drilling campaign planned in late 2022.”
