Includes Impressive 13 Metre Interval Grading 1,029 g/t AgEq (14.7 g/t AuEq) in Oxides
Toronto - April 11, 2022: AbraSilver Resource Corp. (TSX.V: ABRA; OTCQX: ABBRF) ("AbraSilver" or the “Company”) is pleased to announce assay results from three new diamond drill holes from the ongoing Phase II drill program on the Company’s wholly owned Diablillos property in Salta Province, Argentina. Highlight intercepts include:
Hole DDH 22-004 returned the thickest, high-grade intercept on record at the project with 140 metres at 301 g/t AgEq (219 g/t Ag and 1.17 g/t Au), including 13 metres at 1,029 g/t AgEq (951 g/t Ag and 1.12 g/t Au) in the Tesoro Zone; and
Hole DDH 22-002 intersected multiple zones of shallow gold and silver mineralization, with 44 metres at 256 g/t AgEq (116 g/t Ag and 2.00 g/t Au); including 10 metres at 669 g/t AgEq (197 g/t Ag and 6.74 g/t Au) in the southwestern extension of the Main Breccia.
John Miniotis, President and CEO, commented, “We are delighted to continue to receive additional wide, high-grade intercepts from our ongoing exploration program. Hole 22-004 is the thickest high-grade intercept ever recorded on the Diablillos project and will serve to augment the Measured Mineral Resources associated with the Tesoro Zone. Additionally, holes 22-001 and 22-002 will add to the shallow Mineral Resources within the conceptual open pit which should result in further improvement to the economics of the project. All of our Phase II drill results will be incorporated into an updated Mineral Resource estimate which remains on schedule for the third quarter of this year.”
The latest assay result highlights are summarized in Table 1 below.
