Update On Intersections At The El Tigre Project
HALIFAX, NS - Silver Tiger Metals Inc. reported on the last remaining (geotechnical) holes of the Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) drilling program on its El Tigre Project in Sonora, Mexico. These new results are highlighting the near surface, consistent mineralization present.
Drill hole ET-23-513 intersected the Stockwork Zone with 126.6 metres grading 0.77 g/t gold equivalent or 57.5 g/t silver equivalent from 7.4 to 134.0 metres, consisting of 0.55 g/t gold and 16.6 g/t silver, including 19.6 metres grading 1.68 g/t gold equivalent or 126.2 g/t silver equivalent from 94.0 to 113.6 metres, consisting of 1.03 g/t gold and 48.8 g/t silver. This hole highlights the confirms the strong, near-surface mineralization footprint of the Stockwork Zone and expands the Footwall Zone by 50 metres to the east over the 2023 MRE.
Drill hole ET-23-531: 23.4 metres grading 1.30 g/t gold equivalent or 97.6 g/t silver equivalent from 121.4 to 144.8 metres, consisting of 0.29 g/t gold and 75.7 g/t silver INCLUDING 2.2 metres grading 11.75 g/t gold equivalent or 881.5 g/t silver equivalent from 140.0 to 142.2 metres consisting of 1.20 g/t gold and 791.4 g/t silver. The hole highlights the un-mined high-grade veins still present with the Stockwork Zone.
Drill hole ET-23-555: 69.1 metres grading 0.73 g/t gold equivalent or 54.8 g/t silver equivalent from 79.9 to 149.0 metres, consisting of 0.57 g/t gold and 12.2 g/t silver INCLUDING 7.0 metres grading2.13 g/t gold equivalent or 160.0 g/t silver equivalent from 82.0 to 89.0 metres consisting of 2.12 g/t gold and 0.7 g/t silver. The hole confirms Hanging Wall Zone mineralization 200 metres south of Starter Pit and expands mineralization profile 25 metres to the west.
Drill hole ET-23-562: 118.7 metres grading 0.51 g/t gold equivalent or 38.3 g/t silver equivalent from 55.9 to 174.6 metres, consisting of 0.46 g/t gold and 3.5 g/t silver INCLUDING 9.6 metres grading 1.18 g/t gold equivalent or 88.6 g/t silver equivalent from 165.0 to 174.6 metres consisting of 0.80 g/t gold and 28.3 g/t silver. The hole highlights the un-mined high-grade SK veins still present with the Stockwork Zone.
CEO, Glenn Jessome, stated, "As we progress to a PFS in September 2024 promising drill results from the PFS Drilling Program. These results further de-risk the project and, coupled with the advantageous geotechnical and metallurgical results, increase the confidence and size of the El Tigre Project."
