Kootenay Samples up to 536 g/t Ag at San Gregorio Zone at La Cigarra Silver Project
Kootenay Silver (TSXV:KTN) has provided results from comprehensive mapping and channel sampling conducted on an historical underground adit contained within the San Gregorio zone at its La Cigarra silver project in Chihuahua state, Mexico.
Kootenay Silver (TSXV:KTN) has provided results from comprehensive mapping and channel sampling conducted on an historical underground adit contained within the San Gregorio zone at its La Cigarra silver project in Chihuahua state, Mexico.
The detailed work program on the underground adit was carried out by Kootenay in an effort to model a series of known underlying high-grade silver zones that are contained within the Company’s NI 43-101 La Cigarra silver deposit. Data compiled from the program will assist the Company in gaining an understanding what controls the high-grade mineralization contained within the deposit and will assist in further defining a series of silver targets for future drill programs.
James McDonald, President & CEO of Kootenay Silver stated, “We are very pleased with the latest exploration data we have gained from the San Gregorio underground adit. Results from the current program, combined with our ongoing re logging efforts and previous data we have obtained through prior exploration programs, support our effort to design a drill program to test the extensions of the current resource, which remains open along strike and to depth. Upon completion of the prerequisite work, we look forward to initiating a drill program aimed at expanding our established silver resource, starting sometime in the first quarter of 2017.”
The exploration program included a total of 34 channel samples taken across walls on the inside of the adit. The combined results from all the samples carried a weighted average silver grade of approximately 89 gpt, which corresponds with the average silver grade contained within the current silver resource estimate. Detailed results of the channel samples taken within the adit are included in the table below and are also highlighted in the map found in the following link: San Gregorio Adit Silver Values.
