Drill Program Completed At The Plomo Claims

NEW BRUNSWICK – Colibri Resource Corporation reported on its maiden Phase 1 reconnaissance reverse circulation (RC) drill program completed at the Plomo claims within the EP Gold Project located in the prolific Caborca Gold Belt of Sonora, Mexico, a region that hosts several significant gold deposits and mining operations including La Herradura and Noche Buena.
The Phase 1 program comprised 22 RC drill holes completed across the San Perfecto (20 holes) and Banco de Oro (2 holes) targets within the Plomo claim block, along with one RC drill hole completed at the West Sahuaro target located within the Evelyn claim block of the EP Gold Project. The program represents the first modern drill testing of multiple targets identified through geological mapping, geophysical interpretation and surface sampling across the Plomo claims.
Ian McGavney, President and CEO, said, “We are extremely pleased with the results from our maiden drill program at the Plomo claims. Intersecting gold mineralization in 18 of 22 holes, including 7.5 metres grading 2.92 g/t gold and 30.0 metres grading 0.73 g/t gold from near surface, represents a strong start and provides compelling evidence of a broad mineralized system along the San Perfecto corridor. In addition, the results from Banco de Oro, where drilling intersected 30 metres grading 0.45 g/t gold including higher-grade intervals, further demonstrate the potential for multiple mineralized zones within the Plomo claim block. Together with the encouraging results from West Sahuaro, these results continue to strengthen our belief that the EP Gold Project hosts one or more significant gold system within the Caborca Gold Belt.”
