Salazar Resources Ltd. reports new high grade intersections from the ongoing diamond drill program on its 100% owned (30,327 ha), precious metals rich Curipamba volcanogenic massive sulphide project in Ecuador.
Step out hole CURI-122 cut significant mineralization associated with massive sulphide horizons:
- Hole CURI-122 intersected 8.18 meters of 3.3 g/t gold, 100.05 g/t silver, 0.68% copper, 0.87% lead and 9.95% zinc, including 2.8 meters of 9.28 g/t gold, 244.07 g/t silver, 1.09% copper, 2.34% lead and 19.33% zinc. This hole was drilled as a step out to the west of CURI-08-046 which intersected 16.33 meters grading 3.59 g/t gold, 114.2 g/t silver and 3.42% copper.
Five holes, CURI-116, 118, 122, 124 and 126, were drilled as step outs along the western periphery of an area of high grade mineralization in the El Domo deposit. Holes CURI-118 and 122 cut massive sulphide mineralization indicating the mineralization may continue to the Southwest of the current drilling. Hole CURI-116, 124, and 126 cut stockwork mineralization.
Mr. Salazar says, "We are very pleased to see the results in holes CURI-118 and CURI-122 as they provide evidence of mineralization continuing in the extreme southwest of the El Domo Deposit. These drill holes indicate that the mineralization is open to the southwest and the Company will continue to drill test to better define the mineralization in this area."
Drill core samples are analyzed by ALS Chemex Labs Ltd. and IBS Inspectorate, ISO 9001:2000 certified laboratories. Salazar maintains a QAQC program whereby standard samples and blanks are inserted into each batch of samples to ensure quality control.
