El Tigre Silver Returns 1.4 meters of 2057 g/t Ag

El Tigre Silver Corp.(TSXV:ELS, OTCQX:EGRTF) announced that they drilling program at the stockwork zone was concluded on April 12, 2013 with 38 holes completed and 4,862 meters drilled.

As quoted in the press release:

The highest gold and silver assay that was reported was in Hole ET13-66 with 0.4 meters of 3,030 g/t Ag (88.5 opt Ag) and 235 g/t Au (6.86 opt Au). This interval was followed by 1 meter of 2,920 g/t Ag and 5.34 g/t Au. The lab is currently reassaying this and other intervals from new pulp samples to confirm these high gold and silver values. The company also reports these intervals as “core length” and is not “true width” because not enough information exists at this time to determine true width.

El Tigre’s President and CEO, Stuart Ross, said:

We are very pleased with the continued strength of the assay results from this drilling program. These results continue to confirm the strong mineralization in the 1.2 kilometer area of focus that is part of El Tigre’s 5.3 kilometer strike zone. Once the final 16 holes are assayed and reported we will be summarizing all the new information into a NI 43-101 compliant technical report. We anticipate this will provide the first resource model for the El Tigre property.
