Prospero Silver Corp. (TSXV:PSL) announced highlights from a recently completed mapping and sampling survey at the Mexico-based Santa Maria del Oro project.

As quoted in the press release:

The Northern zone exhibits the best geochemistry in a 5m deep working where 9 channel samples average 27.2 g/t Ag and 0.12 g/t Au over a width of 2.3m, with assays up to 178 g/t Ag and 0.42 g/t Au in a sample 0.5m wide. These are associated with multistage banded veins, and represent a precious metal-bearing hot spot and the best drill target for testing the system at depth.

Prospero’s President and CEO, Tawn Albinson said:

Given the strong geochemical signatures in 4km of this system, we believe the Matorral target has the right high-level epithermal geology and characteristics to host a major epithermal deposit at depth.
