Argentex Drill Results Indicate High-grade Silver and Gold

First results from the drill program at the Pingüino silver-gold project in Argentina show promising results, states the company behind the 58-hole program.

Highlights included 4 meters averaging 132.9 grams per tonne silver and 2.53 grams per tonne gold.

Vancouver-based Argentex Mining Corp. (TSXV:ATX) said Thursday that the company has received results from eight reverse-circulation holes, with the remaining 50 holes still to be processed.

As quoted in the press release:

‘We are pleased to see continued positive results from the Karina vein. Karina was discovered in 2012, and was previously identified through ground magnetics and soil surveys. The Karina vein has a known strike length of about 1,000 meters in three different segments (Karina I to III), and is crosscut and displaced by the northwest-oriented veins, Marta Noroeste and Savary,’ commented Michael Brown, President and CEO of Argentex. ‘We will be adding these results and those that are still to be received to our internal geological model to update the current resource.’
