Kootenay Silver Inc. (TSXV:KTN) announced results from an additional 16 drill holes completed as part of the Phase 1 drill program at its new La Negra breccia silver discovery. The discovery is located roughly 6.5 kilometers north of Kootenay’s flagship Promontorio silver resource in Mexico.

Drill highlights include:

  • 200 meters from surface of 156 gpt Silver in LN 21-14 including the bottom 50 meters grading 442 gpt Silver. This hole bottomed in 492 gpt over 17 meters.
  • 6 meters of 1337 gpt Silver in LN 21-14, the highest grade interval to date.
  • 34 meters from surface of 265 gpt Silver in LN 22-14 with 18 meters of 467 gpt Silver
  • 30 meters from surface of 250 gpt Silver in LN 23-14 with 13 meters of 459 gpt Silver
  • 33 meters from surface of 179 gpt Silver with 11 meters of 412 gpt Silver in LN 14-14.
  • 49 meters from 13 meter depth of 92 gpt Silver with 34 meters of 251 gpt Silver in LN 8-14.
  • 140 meters from surface of 61 gpt Silver with 47 meters of 79 gpt Silver and 8 meters of 355 gpt Silver in LN 13-14.

Kootenay Silver’s president and CEO, James McDonald, said:

We are extremely pleased with assay results from the current 16 holes of the program. La Negra is rapidly evolving into an exciting new silver discovery that is ideally situated and continues to yield multiple high-grade results. The mineralization is outcropping on a hill top and drill results show both consistency of mineralization and demonstrated potential for continued high grades, as shown in holes such as LN 21-14 that returned 1337 gpt silver over 6 meters. Combined, these factors indicate strong potential for developing a significant low cost silver operation.
