SilverCrest Metals (“SilverCrest” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce additional Phase II drill results for the Las Chispas Property (the “Property”) located in Sonora, Mexico. These additional drill results indicate expansion of high-grade silver-gold mineralization for the Babicanora Vein from previously announced results.
The Company is currently exploring seven of the 19 known epithermal veins on the Property, including the Las Chispas, Giovanni, William Tell, Varela, La Blanquita, Granaditas, and Babicanora veins. Additional Phase II drill results are anticipated over the next several months, including potential further expansion of the Babicanora Vein.
N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng, President and CEO, remarked:
“Step out drilling along the strike of the Babicanora Vein has more than tripled our previously announced high-grade footprint. New high-grade drill intercepts confirm strong mineralization extending beyond the historic Babicanora workings.
We have been able to trace the Babicanora Vein on surface for over three kilometres, but have drill-tested less than 20% of its known strike length. Based on continued success in the district, we plan to have up to six drills turning this fall, aiming to further expand high-grade mineralization along multiple veins in both the Babicanora and the Las Chispas areas. All of our current efforts are focused on a maiden resource announcement in early 2018.”
