Arizona Silver Exploration Intersects 145 Feet of 62.5 gpt Silver at Ramsey Silver Project

Arizona Silver Exploration (the “Company”) (AZS) is pleased to announce the second batch of drill results from the first phase of drilling in 2017 on the Ramsey Silver Project located in La Paz County, Arizona.
Drill Results

Drill hole R1706 intersected 145 feet containing 62.5 g/tonne (gpt) Ag between 260-405 feet down-hole depth. R1706 was drilled at -75 degrees bearing 60 degrees azimuth. This interval is contained within a wider zone of silver mineralization between 210-500 feet averaging 42.6 g/tonne (gpt) Ag.
The majority of the intercept is within silicified rhyolite that is hanging-wall to the fault contact that hosts the high-grade vein that was the focus of historical mining on the property. A minority of the intercept is below that fault contact. A discrete vein was not recognized in the drill cuttings.
Rather the zone of silver mineralization appears to be a wide zone of disseminated and stockwork mineralization throughout the intervals reported. The higher grade interval averages 0.18% Pb and 0.34% Zn, while the broader lower silver grade interval averages 0.15% Pb and 0.26% Zn. Both intervals contain appreciable barite with numerous sample intervals containing greater than 1% Ba.
