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.

5 Silver Stocks With Dividends

Silver is a notoriously volatile metal capable of wide price swings in either direction. However, the metal is also seen by many as a safe-haven investment and a hedge against inflation.

While investing in silver bullion is one popular method for gaining exposure, silver-mining companies offer another route.

Silver-mining companies with strong balance sheets and experienced management teams are able to capitalize on high silver prices and weather the storm of low silver prices. Some of the most profitable silver-mining companies are even able to offer investors dividends, which may be appealing for those who are in it for the long haul.

Editor's Picks: Silver Price Hits 13 Year High, Gold Takes a Breather

Gold was on the decline this week, closing just below US$3,370 per ounce, after tensions in the Middle East pushed it past the US$3,430 level toward the end of last week.

All eyes were on the US Federal Reserve, which in a widely expected move left interest rates unchanged on Wednesday (June 18) following its two day meeting. The central bank cut rates in December 2024, but has kept them steady for its last four gatherings.

US President Donald Trump wasn't pleased, calling Powell "too late" in a Thursday (June 19) post on Truth Social. While speculation that Trump will fire Powell has died down, the president did recently say he intends to announce his next pick for the Fed leader position "very soon."

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.
