Source Exploration Corp. (TSXV:SOP) announced that seven new infill drill holes completed at the El Dorado target of its Las Minas project support the results of previous exploration drilling.

As quoted in the press release:

The mineralized skarn zone at El Dorado remains fully open to the east and west and continues towards the south where it is believed to merge with the higher grade Santa Cruz zone. Previously reported exploration drilling at Santa Cruz intersected high–grade mineralization in hole LM-11-SC-45, which returned 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(m) – see press release January 26, 2012. The El Dorado and Santa Cruz zones are only two of the several known mineralized skarn zones that occur on the property.

Drill highlights from the seven new holes include:

Hole LM-14-ED-03 returned:

  • 0.77 g/t Au, 13.4 g/t Ag, 5.37% Cu or 10.2 g/t Au Eq over 2.0 metres within
  • 6.9 m grading 0.28 g/t Au, 4.74 g/t Ag, 1.76% Cu or 3.37 g/t Au Eq within
  • 18.2 m grading 0.27 g/t Au, 3.35 g/t Ag , 0.93% Cu or 1.91 g/t Au Eq

Hole LM-14-ED-05 returned:

  • 1.60 g/t Au, 5.56 g/t Ag, 0.92% Cu or 3.26 g/t Au Eq over 6.0 m

Hole LM-14-ED-07 returned:

  • 1.66 g/t Au, 8.31 g/t Ag, 0.91% Cu or 3.36 g/t Au Eq over 2.4 m
  • 0.57 g/t Au, 4.32 g/t Ag, 1.10% Cu or 2.52 g/t Au Eq over 11.4 m
