Progress On The Silver Strand Project In Idaho
VANCOUVER - Silver Hammer Mining Corp. reported that the first drillhole of an 11-hole Phase II diamond drill program has been completed at its past-producing Silver Strand Project in Idaho.
The Phase II Drill Program, which is utilizing the established underground drilling station, is focused on expanding known silver-gold mineralization further down-dip, while also testing the potential for additional mineralized chutes. The Company has generated priority targets based on a drone supported magnetic survey, Phase I drilling results, and the integration of historical drilling data acquired from previous operators of the Silver Strand Project.
“We are excited to return to our flagship project and move forward with our Phase II Drill Program at Silver Strand. We have drillholes designed to test up to three times as deep as our previous phase of drilling and a series of other holes that will test the system laterally with the aim of discovering parallel chutes to the southeast of the main mine trend,” said President & CEO, Morgan Lekstrom. “We believe the potential for making additional discoveries at Silver Strand is excellent and finding new high-grade zones of gold-silver mineralization would demonstrate the large-scale potential we think is possible here.”
