706 gpt Silver Equivalent Over 16 Meters (370 Ag and 7.79% Pb-Zn) Intercepted at Promontorio Drilling

Company News

Assay results from an additional 20 drill holes from its 25,000 meter drill and resource definition program on its Promontorio Silver Project in Sonora, Mexico was announced by Kootenay Gold Inc. (TSXV:KTN). The strike continuity of silver mineralization in the Southwest Zone connecting to the NI 43-101 Pit Resource has now been extended from 140 meters to 300 meters. In the Northeast Zone, which sits 700 meters outside of the current NI 43-101 Pit Resource, mineralization along strike is now 210 meters.

DH 89 was drilled sub parallel to the hang wall of the Pit Resource encountering anomalous results. DH 103 was abandoned. DH 101 and 102 in the Southwest Zone up dip of DH 91 appear to be above or at the top edge of the zone. DH 90 and 98 returned no significant results and appear to be above the mineralization hit on section in DH 104 further down dip.
