Xtierra Reports Start Up of Drilling to Follow Up Previously Encountered High Grade Silver Target at Bilbao

Xtierra Inc. (TSXV:XAG) reported a 2,500 metre drilling programme has been commissioned to follow up on the high grade silver mineralisation previously encountered to the south of the Bilbao deposit.

The press release is quoted as saying:

The drilling will test a number of targets including, (a) the open-ended mineralisation encountered in veins and shear structures similar to that intersected in hole X40-1 (2.45 metres averaging 1,623g/t silver, including 3,340g/t silver over 0.60m). This hole was prematurely halted due to technical difficulties while still in mineralisation; (b) the projected extensions to brecciated silver-rich limestone horizons; and (c) a geophysical anomaly (magnetic) believed to be associated with massive, skarn-type sulphide mineralisation.
