Impact Silver Announces New Discovery At The Royal Mines Of
Zacualpan
======================================================================
IMPACT Silver Corp. ("IMPACT") is pleased to announce a new discovery
on the San Antonio Target within the Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver
District. Recent drilling returned the highest zinc and lead grades
with significant gold and silver mineralization encountered by IMPACT
to date. These results are part of the 10,000m drill program budgeted
for 2007.
The San Antonio zone is located 4km southeast of the Zacualpan mill.
On surface, it is marked by a glory hole measuring 45m x 3m x 30m deep,
two adits and a foundation for an old processing plant. The
mineralized intercepts occur below the water table, which appear to
have been left undisturbed by historic mining. Highlights of the
recent eleven-hole drill program include:

Drill holes Z07-16 to Z07-19 were drilled to test the southeast
boundary of the system and intersected lower grades. The zone remains
open for expansion to the northwest. Surface work is continuing in
preparation for phase two drilling.
Vice President of Exploration, George Gorzynski, said: "We are very
excited about San Antonio. After San Ramon and Chivo, this is the
third discovery with near-term production potential made by our team in
Zacualpan since the acquisition of the project."

was NTW size (5.71cm diameter) and BTW size (4.20cm diameter). Half
core samples were collected with a rock saw and tagged for
identification. Chip and channel samples were collected from cleaned
rock faces in old mine workings and from bedrock outcrops over a
continuous representative interval using a moil and hammer. All
samples were securely stored at the IMPACT base camp until shipment. A
total of 5% assay standards and blanks were inserted into every sample
shipment as a quality control measure. All samples were shipped to the
ALS Chemex preparation laboratory in Guadalajara, Mexico, where they
were fine-crushed (70% passing a 2mm screen), pulverized (85% passing a
75 micron screen) and pulp-split separated for assay by a riffle
splitter. These pulps were shipped to the ALS Chemex laboratory in
North Vancouver, Canada, where a 30-gram split of each was assayed for
gold and silver by standard fire assay and a 10-gram split was analyzed
for an additional 30 elements by ICP spectrometry.
