Vizsla Silver Corp.(TSXV: VZLA) has identified a new zone of mineralisation in results from 19 new drill holes targeting the Animas Vein Corridor, at its 100%-owned, flagship Panuco silver-gold project in Mexico.
The results are centreed on two zones, the Rosarito Zone, which was included in the March 2022 maiden resource estimate, and the Cuevillas Zone, a new discovery located near perpendicular to Rosarito, at the northern end of the Animas Vein Corridor.
Highlights
- Cuevillas: AM-22-42 returned 1,088 grams per tonne (g/t) silver equivalent (AgEq) over 1.26 metres true width (mTW) (787 g/t silver, 3.65 g/t gold, 0.09 % lead and 0.19 % zinc)
- Cuevillas: AM-21-39 returned 261 g/t AgEq over 5.66 mTW (124 g/t silver, 0.98 g/t gold, 0.40 % lead and 1.27 % zinc)
- Rosarito: AM-21-31 returned 652 g/t AgEq over 4.71 mTW (391 g/t silver, 2.23 g/t gold, 1.48 % lead and 1.09 % zinc)
“While drilling in late 2021 focussed primarily on delivering the maiden resource estimate, Vizsla continued its exploration efforts in order to identify and test new targets across the Project,” President and CEO, Michael Konnert, said.
“Given the current resource base comprises less than five percent of the known mapped/sampled veins in the district, the company is confident in its ability to uncover new centres of mineralisation.
“This was reinforced by multiple high-grade drill intercepts from the Rosarito and Cuevillas zones, located at the northern end of the Animas Vein Corridor.
“Both of these zones are open for expansion and represent only two of several excellent targets that extend beneath historic workings in the central portion of the Property.
Vizsla now has seven of its thirteen planned drill rigs devoted to testing new exploration targets and looks forward to growing these zones of mineralisation ahead of the company’s resource update planned for the second half of 2022.”
