High-Grade Identified At the Aguilar Vein Discover
VANCOUVER - Outcrop Silver & Gold Corporation reported on drilling at the Aguilar vein discovery located 5 kilometres south of the existing resource along the 30 kilometre vein corridor. These recent drill holes at Aguilar have confirmed the continuity of high-grade silver along dip and revealed a new parallel blind vein, Aguilar-HW, with the potential of discovering additional veins. Outcrop Silver has two active drill rigs on site, focusing on drill testing the extensive inventory of exploration targets to expand the current resource. One rig is currently at Aguilar testing extension along strike and depth, while the other has begun testing the Guadual target, located 1.8 kilometres north of the Aguilar vein system.
DH369 intercepted 6.52 metres of 828 grams per tonne of silver equivalent, including 0.63 metres at 6,943 grams per tonne of silver equivalent. DH371 intercepted 1.11 metres of 969 grams per tonne of silver equivalent and 0.31 metres of 3,741 grams per tonne of silver equivalent confirming the extension of Aguilar North at depth. DH364 intercepted 1.63 metres of 717 grams per tonne of silver equivalent. DH363 intercepted 1.04 metres of 1,218 grams per tonne of silver equivalent in a new blind discover, Aguilar-HW.
"After confirming the existence of high grade further south with our current drilling campaign, we are excited with the recent holes that suggest more blind veins can be discovered," said, Guillermo Hernandez, VP of Exploration. "Aguilar is demonstrating a robust vein system with many parallel veins, including splays that carry encouraging results. These types of complex vein systems are showing great potential for our drill campaign."
