Arizona Silver Expands the Philadelphia Property, Arizona

(TheNewswire)



Vancouver, British Columbia TheNewswire - July 27, 2021 Arizona Silver Exploration Inc. (TSXV: AZS ) ( OTC:AZASF ) is pleased to announce that recent high grade drilling results have prompted the Company to stake an additional 10 lode mining claims (200 acres) at the Philadelphia project in Mohave County, Arizona.

Greg Hahn, VP-Exploration states " We have staked additional mining claims to cover the depth extension of the Perry vein system that returned the high grade gold results announced xxxxx. The new claims cover strongly altered and iron oxide-stained flow dome rhyolite that forms the hanging wall of the vein system where drilled. Significantly, alteration in the rhyolite is strong to intense which suggests it overlies a robust mineral system. In my view it was imperative that we secure the potential depth extensions of the vein system beneath such impressive hydrothermal alteration."

The Hanging Wall Rhyolite

The hanging wall rhyolite is now considered a key indicator of mineralization on the property. The hydrothermally altered rhyolite has outcrop dimensions of some 600 metres by 1000 metres.   Drilling on the Perry vein west of the new claims intersected the rhyolite in all of the holes. Accordingly the vein is projected to continue at depth beneath the rhyolite body.

The rhyolite is unique within the numerous rhyolite bodies on the property in that it has a strong hyperspectral reflectance indicative of strong hydrothermal alteration, as shown on the USGS Great Basin alteration map. To our knowledge there are no drill holes or mine workings in this rhyolite, except where the Company has discovered mineralization near surface.

Potential Waste Rock Disposal Site

The eastern portion of the new claims covers a shallow bowl-shaped area in unmineralized and weakly altered to unaltered volcanics.  This is a potential waste rock disposal site for future open pit mining at Philadelphia. South of the new claims the rhyolites are significantly less altered. That area was recently staked by Northern Vertex such that they surround the southern portion of the Company's pre-existing claim group.

10 Silver ETFs for Every Investing Style in 2025

Investors looking for exposure to the silver price and silver-mining companies should consider silver exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Spurred by moves in the gold market, safe haven buying as well as increasing demand from industrial sectors, silver saw strong price movements in the first half of 2025, breaching US$37 per ounce for the first time since 2011.

While silver has often been seen as a more approachable precious metal owing to its lower per ounce price, its performance has lagged gains seen in the gold price over the past few years. However, silver stole some of the spotlight in the second quarter of 2025 as it saw significant gains on the back of geopolitical tension and economic uncertainty from the US trade and tariff policy.

Like gold, investors can gain exposure to silver in several ways that each offer their own pros and cons, along with differing costs and risks. For example, investors can purchase physical silver bars or coins, or invest in silver futures.
