Argentum starts second-phase drilling at Coyote
Sept 12, '12 - News Release
Argentum Silver Corp. has commenced a second-phase drilling program at its 1,053-hectare Coyote property in the state of Jalisco, Mexico. The second-phase diamond drill program is aimed at demonstrating grade and thickness continuity on the El Tajo vein as well as some scout drilling on the La Colorada and La Valenciana veins. Sixteen drill holes are planned, totalling 2,000 metres. Combined, the El Tajo and La Colorada veins have been traced for over a 900-metre strike length on surface. In addition, a new vein system called La Valenciana has been defined approximately 750 metres to the southwest of El Tajo. The La Valenciana vein system is traceable on surface for over 450 metres as a series of exposures and underground workings supported by trenching, geophysics, and soil and rock sampling.
Earlier in 2012, 12 holes were drilled on the El Tajo vein, returning highlights of 2.0 metres of 2,745 grams per tonne silver and 2.4 metres of 900 grams per tonne silver, including 1.2 metres of 1,645 grams per tonne silver. Warren McIntyre, president and chief executive officer of Argentum, stated: "The first 11 drill holes of this new program will further test the El Tajo vein and are the next stage in working towards building a future resource at Coyote. The company is focused on developing shareholder value in its portfolio of properties, with Coyote being our primary focus for the remainder of 2012."
