Source Exploration Corp.: Infill Drilling at Las Minas Project Supports Results of Prior Drilling at El Dorado Target

Press Release: MINING EXPLORATION UPDATE – Thu, 13 Mar, 2014 8:00 AM EDT

SOP.V	0.06	0.00

THUNDER BAY, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - March 13, 2014) - SOURCE EXPLORATION CORP. (the "Company" or "Source") (TSX VENTURE:SOP) is pleased to announce that seven new infill drill holes drilled at the El Dorado target of the Las Minas Project have confirmed the results outlined by earlier exploration drilling. The seven holes are part of a planned two phase program totaling approximately 2,800 metres of delineation drilling at the El Dorado and Santa Cruz discovery areas.

The mineralized skarn zone at El Dorado remains fully open to the east and west and continues towards the south where it is believed to merge with the higher grade Santa Cruz zone. Previously reported exploration drilling at Santa Cruz intersected high-grade mineralization in hole LM-11-SC-45, which returned 15.89 grams per tonne gold (g/t Au) 12.98 grams per tonne silver (g/t Ag) and 2.25 percent copper (% Cu) over 10.0 metres(m) - see press release January 26, 2012. The El Dorado and Santa Cruz zones are only two of the several known mineralized skarn zones that occur on the property.

The gold - silver and copper mineralization zone outlined in the infill drilling is genetically related to the Las Minas granodiorite intrusive and the hydrothermal systems that accompanied granitoid emplacement. The Las Minas granodiorite intrusive measures approximately 10 kilometres in diameter and underlies the Las Minas concessions.

NEW DRILL RESULTS

Selected drill highlights from the first seven holes of infill drilling include:

Hole LM-14-ED-03 returned:

0.77 g/t Au, 13.4 g/t Ag, 5.37% Cu or 10.2 g/t Au Eq over 2.0 metres within

6.9 m grading 0.28 g/t Au, 4.74 g/t Ag, 1.76% Cu or 3.37 g/t Au Eq within

18.2 m grading 0.27 g/t Au, 3.35 g/t Ag, 0.93% Cu or 1.91 g/t Au Eq

Hole LM-14-ED-05 returned:

1.60 g/t Au, 5.56 g/t Ag, 0.92% Cu or 3.26 g/t Au Eq over 6.0 m

Hole LM-14-ED-07 returned:

1.66 g/t Au, 8.31 g/t Ag, 0.91% Cu or 3.36 g/t Au Eq over 2.4 m

0.57 g/t Au, 4.32 g/t Ag, 1.10% Cu or 2.52 g/t Au Eq over 11.4 m.

President & CEO, Brian Robertson said, "We are excited about these new drill results, which supports the results of previous drilling and bodes well for the development of an initial resource estimate. Recent results confirmed that the mineralized skarn zone at El Dorado remains open both on strike and down dip."

Silver Predator to Commence Initial Drilling on Taylor Gold Targets

Fri, 14 Mar, 2014 4:00 PM EDT

ca.finance.yahoo.com

SPD.TO	0.085	0.00

Reno, Nevada US, March 14, 2014 /FSC/ - Silver Predator Corp. (SPD - TSX Venture), (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received permits for 14 drill sites designed to test newly identified gold targets to the east and southeast of the existing 1,320 tpd mill and silver resource at its 100% owned Taylor Project, located in White Pine County, Nevada. This is the first time the previously unrecognized gold targets will be drill tested.

The drill program will commence immediately to test the new "Carlin type" gold target areas identified at South Taylor, Antimony Pit, Crescent and Enterprise. Surface alteration and mineralization mapped and sampled in the Enterprise - Crescent area covers a larger footprint than the current silver resource and has yielded high grade surface results with soil samples up to 1.7 g/t gold (Au) and 58.0 g/t silver (Ag). The Company anticipates receiving initial assay results in the second quarter of this year.

Discussion of New Gold Targets

In 2012, a detailed mapping program covering eight square miles was completed that included the existing silver resource area and newly developed targets shown on the attached map. Initial mapping in the open pit areas found that silver mineralization was confined to specific, but predictable host rocks and fault zones. In fact, the best silver grades were found at the convergence of north-south and northwest-orientated fault zones; structural controls that are repeated at Taylor and typical of other gold districts in Nevada, including the northern Carlin Trend. In addition, the Company found that silty carbonate rock types, as in other Nevada sediment hosted precious metals mines, are key host rocks in the Taylor resource area. Extensive intrusive igneous rocks mapped as dikes and sills are also closely associated with the higher silver grades at Taylor and represent a third characteristic common to other Nevada sediment hosted deposits.

As the mapping was expanded outward from the resource area, silica alteration, intrusives, and antimony prospects related to N-S and NW faulting were found to the east and southeast of the resource area. This mapping was the first indication that previous mining was focused on only a minor portion of a much larger District-scale precious metals system. In the newly mapped areas, however, the highly favorable silty carbonate host rocks of the upper Guillmette Formation are not exposed at the surface as they are in the resource area and require drilling to test.

In order to prioritize and rank the newly identified target areas, a soil geochemistry program was designed and implemented in late 2012. This soil sample grid consisted of 1,166 samples and provided broad overall coverage with additional detail over some of the better areas as defined by the mapping program. The soil program identified highly anomalous gold, silver, antimony, arsenic and mercury in mapped areas coincident with favorable host rocks, intrusives, jasperoid silica and the patterned N-S/NW fault sets. The soil results include the following:

* Five samples assaying over 1 g/t gold (Au), including values of 1.3, 1.5 and 1.7 g/t Au;

* 126 samples (11%) assaying greater than 0.2 g/t Au;

* 224 samples (19%) assaying greater than 0.1 g/t Au; and

* The 1.3 g/t soil sample was located approximately 15 feet from a small outcrop of Pilot Shale that was weakly silica altered, but assayed 5 g/t Au and 12 g/t Ag.

Conclusion

The combined mapping and soil geochemistry programs confirmed that Taylor is a newly recognized classic Carlin-type precious metals system with a significant gold component. The upcoming reverse circulation drilling program is designed to test some of these target areas that combine mapped faults, intrusives and alteration, and favorable soil results at surface, with a deeper projection of the upper Guillmette host rocks. This upper Guillmette silty carbonate horizon varies in depth from one area to another, but is expected to average approximately 300-750 feet below surface.
