San Marco Continues to Discover High Grade Mineralization at Chunibas; Samples 6.41% Copper and 27.3 g/t Silver

San Marco Resources Inc. (TSX-V:SMN) (“San Marco” or “the Company”) announces further assay results from continuing fieldwork at Chunibas. As disclosed in the Company’s news release dated January 10th, 2018, newly discovered copper and silver mineralization at the Company’s 100% owned Chunibas property has been located over an area of approximately 1.2 kilometres of strike and at least 100 metres of width. That zone has now been extended to 1.7 kilometres of strike and up to 150 metres of width, and open in all directions.
As quoted in the press release:

An initial petrographic study has identified bornite, chalcocite, covellite and idaite as the primary copper minerals which appear associated with hydrothermal alteration. Microscopic textural features indicate that chalcocite, covellite and idaite are replacing bornite. The nature of the replacement could be a late hydrothermal event or supergene. The dominant alteration assemblage is represented by Iron – epidote -> chlorite > quartz > calcite.
