Kootenay Silver Announces Results from Ten Additional Drill Holes

Kootenay Silver Inc.(TSXV:KTN) announced the latest results from its 25,000 meter drill program at its Promontorio Silver Project. The results from ten additional drill holes showed hits of 254 gpt over 18 meters. This drill program has been recently completed and represents Kootenay’s largest drill program to date.

As quoted in the press release:

The Company reports the two-phase 35,000 meter in-fill drill and resource definition program, comprised of 25,000 meters of core drilling and 10,000 meters of RC drilling is now complete. Work on an independent NI 43-101 resource update to incorporate results from drilling is underway.

Kootenay Silver, CEO, James McDonald, commented:

The high-grade results achieved from step-out drilling in the Northeast Zone is further testimony to the success of our multi-phase drill program. Since confirming our initial NI 43-101 silver resource in 2010, we established one continuous zone of silver mineralization from the Pit (Discovery) Zone through the Southwest Zone. This zone remains open to the east, west and to depth. We continue to encounter high-grade silver intercepts over widespread areas of silver mineralization in the Northeast Zone, some 700 meters outside of the current NI 43-101 resource. We expect these developments will play a critical factor in sharply boosting the size of our existing silver resource as we prepare for our updated independent NI 43-101 resource study.
