Centenario Gold Announces Results from the First Drill Program on Eden Project

Alain Charest, CEO comments “Although we were unable to repeat the results obtained on surface, the information we got from this first drilling program confirmed that the Buenavista mineralized system is continuous at depth and along strike. The drill information will further help us to better vector in on the mineralized zones within the system. Only a very small portion of the ‘Buenavista’ corridor has been drill-tested so far, so there remain plenty of targets to drill along this structure and along the others.”

Silver Storm Drills 911 G/T Ag.Eq Over 13.05 M, Expanding C460 Zone 74 M At Depth

Greg McKenzie, President and CEO, commented: “Drill results from within the C460 Zone continue to deliver exceptional results. The high-grade mineralization reported today in hole Q-23-022A extends this zone 62 metres below hole Q-23-020 (1,810 g/t Ag.Eq over 14.6 m). Combined, these two holes have demonstrated the mineralization extends 74 metres below the last mined stope (1767 EL), with higher grades and widths than what was previously mined in this area. We will follow up with additional drilling in this location in 2024.”
