New program follows best RC gold drilling to date
Strong start to the new year for Silver Storm Mining (TSXV SVRS / WKN A3EWAU)! The company, which is working to bring the La Parrilla mine an mill complex in Mexico back into production, is reporting drill results from there of well over 2,000 g/t silver equivalent in some cases!
Silver Storm had initiated a drill program on the property acquired from First Majestic Silver in 2023 to demonstrate that there is sufficient silver ore present to justify restarting mining operations – and so far all results presented indicate exactly that.
Important mining zone delivers high grades
As Silver Storm has now announced, drill hole Q-23-020 hit the C460 mineralization zone in the Quebradillas mine as planned and drilled 1,810 g/t silver equivalent over a strong width of 14.62 metres! This included 9.57 meters of 2,466 g/t silver equivalent and 4 meters of 682 g/t silver equivalent.
Importantly, as has been the case with most results to date, this strong intercept of mineralization was discovered close to the last mining conducted in the area, where similar high-grade mineralization was present in the past. In the current case, mineralization was discovered only 15 metres from the last mining operation, where historical trench sampling had returned 974 g/t silver equivalent over a strike length of 23 metres.
In addition, Silver Storm drilled 266 g/t silver equivalent over 6.03 meters, including 496 g/t silver equivalent over 1.67 meters and 354 g/t silver equivalent over 0.60 meters in hole Q-23-017 in the Quebradillas zone. Hole Q-23-019, also drilled into the Quebradillas zone, returned good values, too, with 523 g/t silver equivalent over 1.22 meters.
Conclusion: C460 was the largest mining zone in the Quebradillas mine at the time when La Parrilla was still operated by First Majestic. With the drilling results now reported, Silver Storm Mining has been able to extend C460 to the south at depth. Only limited drilling had been carried out there in the past. As Silver Storm CEO Greg McKenzie explains, the mineralization in this area is higher grade and thicker than in the immediately overlying workings that have been exploited in the past. The significantly higher grades are a welcome surprise for Silver Storm Mining and the company intends to drill additional holes in this area this year. In any case, the new year for Silver Storm has got off to a good start.
