Silver Storm Hits 215 g/t Ag.Eq Over 11.9 Metres at La Parrilla
Silver Storm Mining Ltd. has returned high-grade silver equivalent intersections from its ongoing diamond drilling program at the Rosarios Zone within the La Parrilla Silver Mine Complex in Durango, Mexico.
The latest infill drilling returned notable results including 215 g/t Ag.Eq over 11.9 metres (true width 11.9 metres) in hole IDP-RO-26-004 and 200 g/t Ag.Eq over 15.35 metres (true width 13.3 metres) in hole IDP-RO-26-007. Other intercepts include 297 g/t Ag.Eq over 7.30 metres in hole IDP-RO-26-005, which also intersected multiple narrower zones of mineralization.
The current infill program is designed to test the potential to extend Indicated Resources by an additional 100 metres toward the surface over a 125-metre strike length. Silver Storm is currently operating two underground drill rigs and one surface drill rig to progress the effort, with 115 holes totaling approximately 13,000 metres completed to date.
“We are pleased to deliver yet another impressive set of drill results, this time demonstrating the potential to increase the La Parrilla Mineral Resource at the Rosarios Zone.”
“We will continue our 15,000 m drilling program to grow the resource footprint while operations ramp up at La Parrilla.”
— Greg McKenzie, President and CEO
These results arrive as the company continues to advance underground rehabilitation and development at the past-producing Rosarios mine. The ongoing work is tied to the company's efforts to grow the resource footprint and move toward a potential near-term production restart at the La Parrilla complex. Future progress remains subject to the completion of the total 15,000-metre drilling program.
