Southern Silver Exploration Corp. (TSXV:SSV) announced that it has received details of a proposed drill program at Cerro Las Minitas from indirect interest optionee Freeport-McMoRan. The proposed plans include a 3,000-5,000 metre drill program to commence in early April. Southern Silver has the right to earn a 100% interest in the Cerro Las Minitas property.
As quoted in the press release:
Initial drilling will target the South Skarn area and specifically an offset of drill hole 12CLM-055, which previously identified strongly anomalous gold mineralization over a 20 metre interval within a hematite breccia which averaged 0.8g/t gold and included a 4.3 metre interval averaging 2.8g/t gold and 28g/t silver. A second 4.3 metre interval averaging 1.4g/t gold, 89g/t silver and 1.8% copper was intersected further down hole in an interval of chlorite-garnet skarn (see news release NR-11-12 of May 17, 2012).
