"We are extremely pleased with the initial results from our first drill hol e" stated Colin Sutherland, President & CEO. "We have encountered minerali zation associated with veining over 52.5 metres in a zone dominated by a st rong central vein. The results are encouraging, and we are aggressively mo ving forward with our program."
The "Minas de Animas" structure is more than 2.0 km south east of Nayarit's Orion-Estrella working, and 2.3 km south of the Bonanza 1 workings. The m ain Minas de Animas system has been traced over a strike length of more tha n 850m on surface. Four adits have been located and sampled to date, three of which follow the main southerly dipping Minas de Animas structure for a total of more than 360m underground. The fourth adit is on a footwall str ucture. The vein systems are within a historic mining district where signi ficant mining has produced high grade gold and silver. Additionally, Vane Minerals Group is currently producing gold and silver from their Diablitos mine, located in the western portion of the Acaponeta district, of which th e Orion district is a part.
The Animas mine project area contains of a system of two sub-parallel quart z breccia veins that trend E-W to NW-SE. The project area has been densely sampled, yielding 16 gold assays of equal to or greater than 10 g/t Au. T he sampling program yielded 25 silver assays equal to or greater than 500 g/t Ag, with 9 assays equal to or greater than 1000 g/t Ag.
