GR Silver Mining President and CEO, Marcio Fonseca, commented, “The first batch of drill hole results from the Plomosas Mine Area provides support for the significant potential of this area for discoveries of new mineralization and the delineation of additional resources in the future. The results not only confirm the continuity of the polymetallic wide breccia system down-dip from the historical underground mine, but also present discoveries of parallel Au-Ag mineralized veins and breccias. These features are being incorporated into a 3D geological model for the first time. The results indicate potential for bulk tonnage polymetallic mineralization (Zn-Pb with attractive Ag- Au grades) in un-mined zones near existing underground development, as well as new opportunities for future expansion.”
